dendrobium speciosum/neoplasms

Dendrobium catenatum Lindley is a precious plant with both dietary and medicinal applications. However, the antiproliferative activity of D. catenatum-derived peptides has not been investigated. In this study, the whole proteins of D. catenatum were extracted, hydrolysis with three proteases

Dendrobium denneanum have been used for a long time as rare medicinal herbs in traditional Chinese medicine. Our previous works found that ether extract of D. denneanum had higher anticancer activities than alcohol or water extract,thus with better development prospects. Quantitative proteomics

Resistance to anoikis, enhanced cell motility, and growth in anchorage-independent conditions are hallmarks of highly metastatic cancer cells. The present study demonstrates the anoikis-sensitizing and anti-migration activities of dendrofalconerol A (DF-A), a pure bis(bibenzyl) isolated from the

BACKGROUND Anti-metastasis therapy may become the potential means of improving survival of cancer patients. As the ability of cancer cells to change phenotype from epithelial to mesenchymal has been recognized as an important hallmark of cancer metastasis, this study provides information regarding

Failure of current chemotherapeutic drugs leads to the recurrence of tumor pathology and mortality in lung cancer patients. This study aimed to evaluate the anticancer activity and related mechanisms of 4,5,4'-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxybibenzyl (TDB), a bibenzyl extracted from Dendrobium

Metastatic cancer cells have been shown to have aggressive behaviors accounting for the high incidence of chemotherapeutic failure and mortality. Because migration and invasion are crucial behaviors for cancer cell dissemination, promising compounds exhibiting potential antimigration effects are of

Tumor angiogenesis is the key process in tumor growth and metastasis, and transfers essential nutrients for solid tumor. Inhibition of tumor angiogenesis has been recognized as a more effective anti-cancer strategy for NSCLC and has acquired certain therapeutic effects. IDO has non-immune functions

Dendrobium nobile is an important medicinal food beneficial for human health, well known for polysaccharides and dendrobine. For fast, accurate, and comprehensive comparison of its quality, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fingerprinting method was constructed. Firstly, spring frost

BACKGROUND The conversion of the epithelial phenotype of cancer cells into cells with a mesenchymal phenotype-so-called epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-has been shown to enhance the capacity of the cells to disseminate throughout the body. EMT is therefore becoming a potential target for

Majority of the orchid species are used in the traditional medicines for the treatment of several diseases. They are the sources of polysaccharides, phenanthrenes, bibenzyl derivatives, revesteral, stilbenoids and polyphenol compounds. This study explored the cytotoxic activity of seven wild orchid

OBJECTIVE Enhanced cell motility is a hallmark of highly metastatic cancer cells. The anti-migratory activity of Dendrofalconerol A (DF-A), a pure bis(bibenzyls) isolated from the stem of Dendrobium falconeri (Orchidaceae) is reported in the present study. METHODS Cytotoxicity effects of DF-A on

Background Dendrobium is one of the diverse genus of orchid plants. It possesses a number of pharmacological activities and has long been used in traditional system of medicine. The goal of this study was to investigate the apoptosis inducing property of the ethanolic extract from the leaves of

Background/aim: Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cellular process that facilitates cancer metastasis. Therefore, therapeutic approaches that target EMT have garnered increasing attention. The present study aimed to examine

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Compound Batatasin III isolated from Dendrobium draconis Rchb.f. was tested for the possible anti-cancer activities including anti-proliferative, anti-migration and invasion in human non-small lung cancer H460 cells. The effect of

Ferroptosis, a novel form of programmed cell death, is characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and has been shown to be involved in multiple diseases, including cancer. Stimulating ferroptosis in cancer cells may be a potential strategy for cancer therapy. Therefore, ferroptosis-inducing
