ajuga bracteosa/neoplasms

Ajuga taiwanensis is widely used for the treatment of hepatitis and hepatoma in Taiwanese folk medicine. However, its bioactive components and mechanism of action are unclear. Herein, ajugalide-B (ATMA), a neoclerodane diterpenoid isolated from Ajuga taiwanensis, is reported to exhibit high

In the course of our continuing search for novel cancer chemopreventive agents from natural sources, several kinds of Labiatae plants were screened. Consequently, the iridoid glycoside derivative, 8-acetylharpagide (8-AcHarp), was obtained from the flowering whole plant of Ajuga decumbens as an

Sixteen compounds (1-16) isolated from the flowering whole plant of Ajuga decumbens have been tested for their inhibitory effects on Epstein-Barr virus early antigen (EBV-EA) induction by the tumor promoter, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), as a primary screening test for

Backround:Ajuga species have been used in traditional medicine for their diuretic, anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, and hepatoprotective properties. Purpose: The phytochemical profile and anticancer potential of three Ajuga sp. (A. genevensis, A. chamaepitys, and

BACKGROUND The concept of botanical therapeutics has revitalized due to wide importance of plant derived pharmaceuticals. Therefore, the ameliorative characteristics of Ajuga bracteosa were studied. METHODS Total phenolic content, flavonoid content, antioxidant capacity, reducing power and

The Src-homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2), encoded by PTPN11, has been reported oncogenic tyrosine phosphatase associated with various tumors and played critical roles in many cell signaling events. Targeting SHP2 by small molecules may be a promising way for cancer therapy. Herein,

The n-butanolic fraction of a methanolic extract (80%) from aerial parts of Ajuga chamaecistus ssp. tomentella was analysed using different chromatographic methods. Column (CC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were used for isolation and purification. 13C, H NMR, H-H COSY, HSQC,

The administration of natural antioxidants is considered to be a prevention strategy for chronic diseases and a useful tool for the healthcare system to reduce the administration of expensive and often not effective treatments. The chemical characterization of a methanolic extract (AJ) of Ajuga
