evodiamine/leukemia

Evodiamine, a quinolone alkaloid, is one of the major bioactive compounds of Evodia rutaecarpa Bentham (Rutaceae). It exhibits excellent biological activities, especially the anticancer activity. This study aims to investigate the effect of evodiamine on the proliferation of leukemia cell line K562

Two alkaloids, evodiamine and rutaecarpine, isolated from the dried fruits of Evodia rutaecarpa Bentham were evaluated in vitro for antiproliferation activity on tumor cells versus human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Evodiamine had more potent cytotoxic effects on five tumor cell lines

DNA topoisomerases are nuclear enzymes that are the targets for several anticancer drugs. In this study we investigated the antiproliferative activity against human leukaemia cell lines and the effects on topoisomerase I and II of evodiamine, which is a quinazolinocarboline alkaloid isolated from

Evodiamine, a bioactive alkaloid, has been regarded as having antioxidant, antiinflammatory, and anticancer properties. In the present study, we explored the effects of evodiamine on cell growth and apoptosis in human oral cancer cell lines. Our data revealed that evodiamine significantly inhibited

Evodiamine is one of the major bioactive compounds that have been isolated and purified from the fruit of Evodiae fructus. Evodiamine exhibits antitumor activities against the human tumor cells, including multidrug-resistant tumor cells. However, the molecular mechanism involved in cell death

To explore antitumor agents with high efficiency and selectivity, two series of 16 H2S donating evodiamine derivatives 8-12 were synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. Their antiproliferative activities were tested against five cancer cell lines (Bel-7402, MCF-7, SGC-7901, Caco-2

Leukemias are a heterogenous group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled proliferation of abnormal blood cells of hematopoietic system. Evodiamine, a characteristic alkaloid extracted from Evodia fruits, has been reported to exhibit inhibitory effect on cell proliferation and migration in

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) belongs to the nuclear receptor superfamily of PPARs (PPARα, PPARβ/δ, PPARγ). Numerous studies have concentrated on the key role of PPARs in inflammation and a variety of cancers which include prostate, breast, glioblastoma, neuroblastoma,

The antimycobacterial quinolones 1-methyl-2-undecyl-4-quinolone, dihydroevocarpine and evocarpine as well as the indoloquinazoline alkaloids rutaecarpine and evodiamine - all from the Chinese medicinal herb Evodia rutaecarpa - were tested in two in vitro assays, for cytotoxicity and interaction with
