Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most common type of pancreatic cancer, and has still been the medicinal mystery. New drugs and treatment strategies are urgently needed. In this study, 32 benzofuran derivatives are designed, synthesized and evaluated as potential agents against
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is the central mediator of cellular responses to low oxygen concentrations and vital to many aspects of cancer biology. Bioassay-guided fractionation of the chloroform-soluble extracts of Morus species using a hypoxia response element (HRE)-dependent reporter assay
Mechanisms that contribute to Na+ influx during and immediately after 5 min anoxia were investigated in cultured rat hippocampal neurons loaded with the Na+-sensitive fluorophore sodium-binding benzofuran isophthalate. During anoxia, an influx of Na+ in the face of reduced Na+,K+-ATPase activity
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) as a key mediator in tumor metastasis, angiogenesis, and poor patient prognosis has been recognized as an important cancer drug target. A novel series of N-(benzofuran-5-yl)aromaticsulfonamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as HIF-1 inhibitor. Among
A steep inwardly directed Na+ gradient is essential for glial functions such as glutamate reuptake and regulation of intracellular ion concentrations. We investigated the effects of glucose deprivation, chemical hypoxia, and simulated ischemia on intracellular Na+ concentration ([Na+]i) in cultured
The effects of fructose on the intracellular ionic changes evoked by anoxia were studied in freshly isolated rat hepatocytes maintained in agarose gel threads and perfused with Krebs-Henseleit bicarbonate buffer (KHB). Cytosolic free calcium (Ca2+i) was measured with aequorin, intracellular sodium
Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange has been shown to contribute to reperfusion- and reoxygenation-induced cellular Ca2+ loading and damage in the heart. Despite the fact that both [Na+]i and [Ca2+]i have been documented to rise during ischemia and hypoxia, it remains unclear whether the rise in [Ca2+]i occurring
2-(2-Aminoethoxy)-1-hydroxyethyl derivatives of bicyclic arenes (naphthalene, thianaphthene, benzofuran, and indole) were prepared and screened for antiamnestic (AA) and antihypoxic (AH) activities which were evaluated by measuring the reversing potency in electroconvulsion-induced amnesia and the
Piprofurol is a benzofuran chalcon derivative. It was studied under various experimental conditions which allow the recognition of calcium antagonistic activity. Piprofurol inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner the calcium-induced contractions in isolated potassium depolarized preparations
The natural products moracins O and P exhibited potent in vitro inhibitory activity against hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1), which is a key mediator during adaptation of cancer cells to tumour hypoxia. Systematic variations of the structures of benzofuran type moracins were made and
The novel inhibitor of the reverse mode of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCE) KB-R7943 (KB) was tested in isolated rat cardiomyocytes exposed to 80 min of simulated ischemia [substrate-free anoxia, extracellular pH (pHo) of 6.4] and 15 min of reoxygenation (pHo 7.4). At pHo 6.4, 20 micromol/l KB was
BACKGROUND
Hypothermia is considered to be responsible for sodium influx during cold hypoxic incubation. However, we have previously shown that hypothermia alone leads to a pronounced decrease in cellular sodium content when liver endothelial cells or hepatocytes are incubated under such conditions.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies, yet there have been no significant advances in effective therapeutics. In this study, HS-111 was synthesized as a novel thiazolamine derivative, N-(5-(2-chlorobenzyl) thiazole-2-yl) benzofuran-2-carboxamide, and its anticancer
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) mediates tumor cell adaptation to hypoxic conditions and is a potentially important anticancer therapeutic target. We previously developed a method for synthesizing a benzofuran-based natural product, (R)-(-)-moracin-O, and obtained a novel potent analog, MO-460
