Lupulone, a β-acid derived from hop extracts has been shown to exhibit cytotoxic activity against cancer cells. In this study we investigated the functional role of different modes of cell death that mediate anticancer effect of lupulone derivatives in prostate cancer cells. ELISA, immunoblotting
Lupulone, a β-acid derived from hop extracts has been shown to exhibit antibacterial and anticancer activity. In this study we investigated the anticancer potency of lupulone and its novel derivatives and their mechanism of action on prostate cancer cells. Cell viability was determined using the MTT
The bitter acids of hops (Humulus lupulus L.) mainly consist of humulones or alpha-acids and lupulones or beta-acids. We aimed to evaluate the antiproliferative mechanisms of lupulones on a human metastatic colon carcinoma-derived cell line (SW620 cells) and to assess their chemopreventive effects
We previously reported that the chemopreventive agent lupulone induces apoptosis through activation of the extrinsic pathway via TRAIL DR4/DR5 death receptors overcoming SW620 cell resistance to TRAIL. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Since the mitogen-activated protein
A new phloroglucinol derivative, 5-deprenyllupulonol C (1), along with four other phloroglucinol derivatives, 2-5, five chalcones, 6-10, four flavanones, 11-14, two flavonol glycosides, 15 and 16, and five triterpenoids, 17-21, were isolated from the female inflorescence pellet extracts of hop
A convenient and improved method for the synthesis of beta acids or lupulones, which are known to possess e. g. anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and antimicrobial activity, has been developed successfully. Further derivatization of these complex structures to the corresponding
BACKGROUND
Angiogenesis is the result of intricate steps regulated by the balance between agonistic and antagonistic effectors. Disturbance of this balance leads to an 'angiogenic' switch critical for tumor development.
METHODS
Using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) the effects of
Hops and the components extracted from them are well known antibacterial agents used in beers and as food preservatives, in formulations for topical applications on their own or together with other antimicrobial agents, in hormone replacement therapy, as antioxidants, tumor development antagonists,
By using the rat azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon carcinogenesis model, which mirrors many clinical features of human colorectal cancer, we examined whether genetic changes occurring early in colonic mucosa are predictive of treatment efficacy. In the present study the administration of the
Beer is one of the earliest human inventions and globally the most consumed alcoholic beverage in terms of volume. In addition to water, the 'German Beer Purity Law', based on the Bavarian Beer Purity Law from 1516, allows only barley, hops, yeasts and water for beer brewing. The extracts of these
