biapigenin/neoplasms

Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) play a key role in the inflammatory processes. Improper overproduction of NO and prostaglandins by both enzymes are also believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of certain human cancers. Crude extracts of Selaginella tamariscina

BACKGROUND Biflavonoids are the primary constituents of Selaginella doederleinii Hieron, to which different bioactivities have been attributed, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-fungal and anti-virus activity. However, effective methods for separation of these compounds

The Sulforodamine B (SRB) assay was used to test cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines and one normal cell line of antioxidant constituents isolated from Hypericum triquetrifolium Turra. Methanolic extract and pure compounds were tested against the large cell lung carcinoma cell line

Amentoflavone, robustaflavone, 2″,3″-dihydro-3',3‴-biapigenin, 3',3‴-binaringenin, and delicaflavone are five major hydrophobic components in the total biflavonoids extract from Selaginella doederleinii (TBESD) that display favorable anticancer properties. The purpose of this study was to

Selaginella doederleinii Hieron is a widely used as folk Chinese medicine for treatment of different cancers. Our previous investigations have confirmed that the total biflavonoids in ethyl acetate extract from S. doederleinii (SDEA) have favorable anticancer potentials. However, the in vivo process

Amentoflavone, robustaflavone, 2'',3''-dihydro-3',3'''-biapigenin, 3',3'''-binaringenin and delicaflavone are five major active ingredients in the total biflavonoids extract from Selaginella doederleinii (TBESD) with favorable anticancer properties. However, the

A series of 13 known compounds, including seven benzophenones [guttiferone A (1), guttiferone K (2), xanthochymol (3), guttiferone E (4), cycloxanthochymol (5), isoxanthochymol (6), and gambogenone (7)], five biflavonoids [amentoflavone (8), 3,8''-biapigenin (9), (+)-volkensiflavone (10),

A MeOH extract of Garcinia xanthochymus fruits was subjected to activity-guided fractionation, yielding two new benzophenones, guttiferone H (1) and gambogenone (2). Compound 1 contains a seven-membered ring attached to the bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane system at positions 7 and 8 and displayed cytotoxicity
