bupleurum malconense/抗癌药

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the anticancer, apoptotic and antioxidant properties of Bupleurum chinense (B.C) root extract against human epithelial ovarian cancer cells (HO-8910) in vitro. METHODS MTT assay was used to evaluate the cell viability of HO-8910 cells after

We previously demonstrated that the crude acetone extract of Bupleurum scorzonerifolium (BS-AE) 60 microg/ml has anti-proliferation activity and apoptotic effects on A549 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A novel lignan, isochaihulactone

Bupleurum chinense is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine. Polysaccharides extracted from medical plants possess multiple healthy benefits. In the present study, an alkali-extracted polysaccharide (BCAP-1) was isolated from Bupleurum chinense, and evaluated its physicochemical features,

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF- α ) was reported as anticancer therapy due to its cytotoxic effect against an array of tumor cells. However, its undesirable responses of TNF- α on activating NF- κ B signaling and pro-metastatic property limit its clinical application in treating cancers.

BACKGROUND The transcription factor signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) is constitutively activated in many human cancers. It promotes tumor cell proliferation, inhibits apoptosis, induces angiogenesis and metastasis, and suppresses antitumor host immune responses. Therefore,

Chaihu, prepared from the dried roots of Bupleurum Chinense DC (also known as bei Chaihu in Chinese) or Bupleurum scorzoneraefolium WILD (also known as nan Chaihu in Chinese), is a herbal medicine for harmonizing and soothing gan (liver) qi stagnation. Substantial pharmacological studies have been

The ethyl acetate fraction of Bupleurum longiradiatum was found to have an inhibitory effect on the tube-like formation of human umbilical venous endothelial (HUVE) cells. The active compounds, isolated from the fraction, were identified as acetylbupleurotoxin (P1) and bupleurotoxin (P2). The

Nan-Chai-Hu, the root of Bupleurum scorzonerifolium, is a traditional Chinese herb used in treatment of liver diseases such as hepatitis and cirrhosis. We recently reported that the acetone extract of B. scorzonerifolium (BS-AE) could inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in A549 human lung

Saikosaponin D (Ssd) is a major active ingredient derived from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Bupleurum falcatum, and SP600125 is a specific inhibitor of JNK that competes with adenosine triphosphate. In this study, we co-analyzed cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion

Saikosaponin d (SSd), a primary active component of the Chinese herb Bupleurum falcatum, has antitumor and anti-liver fibrosis effects. However, the toxicity of SSd at high doses can induce conditions such as metabolic disorders and hemolysis in vivo, thus hampering its clinical use. This study

OBJECTIVE Saikosaponin-d is a triterpene saponin derived from Bupleurum falcatum. L and has been reported to exhibit a variety of pharmacological activities such as anti-bacterial, anti-virus and anti-cancer. The aim of the present study was to explore the effect of saikosaponin-d on the

Saikosaponin-d (SSd) is an active extract from Radix Bupleuri, the dried root from the plant Bupleurum falcatum used in China for thousands of years to treat liver diseases. The SSd extract possesses valuable pharmacological activities including anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory

Saikosaponin-d (Ssd) is a triterpene saponin derived from the medicinal plant, Bupleurum falcatum L. (Umbelliferae). Previous findings showed that Ssd exhibits a variety of pharmacological and immunomodulatory activities including anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-cancer

Multidrug resistance (MDR) cells over expressing P-glycoprotein (P-gp) encoded by the MDR1 gene is major obstacles for successful cancer chemotherapy. P-gp could extrude anti-cancer drugs out of cancer cells and decrease effective intracellular drug concentrations. MDR reversal agents for P-gp can

The main causes of dysfunction after a spinal cord injury (SCI) include primary and secondary injuries that occur during the first minutes, hours, to days after injury. This treatable secondary cascade provides a window of opportunity for delivering therapeutic interventions. An S/B remedy
