Cervical cancer remains one of the greatest life threatening diseases for women worldwide. Although chemotherapy is considered as a standard treatment for advanced cervical cancers, there are still some drawbacks in this procedure including side effects and acquired drug resistance, which
Coumarins are a group of important natural compounds, and have been found to have multi-biological activities such as anti-HIV, anti-tumor, anti-hypertension, anti-arrhythmia, anti-osteoporosis, assuaging pain, preventing asthma and antisepsis. One of which is its anti-tumor effect and that is a
Coumarin is a naturally occurring sweet-smelling benzopyrone that may be extracted from plants or synthesized for commercial uses. Its uses include as a flavoring agent, fragrance enhancer, and odor-masking additive. We reviewed and evaluated the scientific evidence on the carcinogenicity of
We report the modulatory effect of coumarin (1,2-benzopyrone) on potassium bromate (KBrO(3)) mediated nephrotoxicity in Wistar rats. KBrO(3) (125 mg/kg body weight, i.p.) enhances gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, renal lipid peroxidation, xanthine oxidase and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) generation
In this study, we report the modulatory effect of coumarin (1,2-benzopyrone) on Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) induced renal oxidative stress and tumor promotion response in rats. Fe-NTA (9 mg Fe/kg body weight, intraperitoneally) enhances renal lipid peroxidation, xanthine oxidase,
Continuing our search for cancer chemopreventive agents from natural sources, we examined constituents of the stem bark of Calophyllum brasiliense. Three new 4-substituted coumarins named brasimarins A (2), B (3), and C (4) were isolated and characterized, along with 11 known coumarins belonging to
A series of sulfocoumarin-, coumarin-, and 4-sulfamoylphenyl-bearing indazole-3-carboxamide hybrids were synthesized and investigated as inhibitors of the human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms I and II (cytosolic isozymes), as well as hCA IX and XII (transmembrane, tumor-associated
In our previous study, we identified a class of 4-substituted coumarins as a powerful microtubule inhibitors binding to the colchicine site of β-tubulin. H6 showed potent anti-proliferative ability with IC50 values from 7 to 47 nM, and remarkable ability to reduce tumor growth in
Coumarins are a wide group of naturally occurring compounds which exhibit a wide range of biological properties such as anti-cancer activities. Here, we characterized the biological functions of three triphenylethylene-coumarin hybrids (TCHs) both in cell culture and nude mouse Three novel Ru(II) complexes, namely, (RuCl2[La][DMSO]2)·H2O (Ru1), (RuCl2[Lb][DMSO]2) (Ru2), and (RuCl2[Lc][DMSO]2) (Ru3), which respectively contain
The antineoplastic and antimetastatic activities of coumarin were evaluated in transplanted prostate tumours of the rat. The growth of Noble Nb-R prostate tumours was strongly inhibited by coumarin (40 mg/kg; administered three times per week), whereas the hormonally more sensitive Dunning R3327-G
Coumarin and its derivative 7-hydroxycoumarin (7-OHC) have antitumor and antimetastatic properties. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible effects of these compounds on expression of the bcl-2 and Bax oncoproteins in two human lung cancer cell lines, A427 and Calu-1. The cells
Responses to coumarin have been reported for patients suffering from malignant melanoma, metastatic renal carcinoma and, recently, advanced prostate cancer. These data together with some experimental evidence for antiprostatic effect prompted us to study the activity of coumarin in various prostate
The recent article by Liu et al. provided for highly interesting reading. Interestingly, recent data suggests that coumarin may exert significant anti-neoplastic effects in a number of systemic malignancies. Coumarin is also of clinical benefit in mammary malignancies. For instance, it attenuates
Highly sensitive hypoxia (H2O2)-activated photoresponsive polymeric nanoparticles for cocktail delivery of anticancer drugs doxorubicin (Dox) and chlorambucil (Cbl) were developed. The photoresponsive polymer conjugate was constructed by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of
