glycine/抗癌药

Structure, electronic property and vibrational spectroscopy of C(24)-glycine and Gd@C(24)-glycine were systematically explored using the hybrid DFT-B3LYP functional. The interaction between empty C(24) cage and the smallest amino acid (glycine) was also investigated. It was found that the glycine

Two novel, neutral and water soluble Pd(II) complexes of formula [Pd(Gly)(Ala)] (1) and [Pd(Gly)(Val)] (2) (Gly, Ala, and Val are anionic forms of glycine, alanine, and valine amino acids, respectively) have been synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, UV-Vis, 1H-NMR, elemental analysis, and molar

Glycine plays a key role in rapidly proliferating cancer cells such as A549 cells. Targeting glycine metabolism is considered as a potential means for cancer treatment. However, the drug-induced alterations in glycine metabolism have not yet been investigated. Herein, a total of 34 glycine

A series of SPM VIII analogs were synthesized to investigate the effect of the amino acid moiety on the antitumor activity. The L-threonine analog and the glycylglycine analog of SPM VIII showed much higher cytotoxicity to P388 murine leukemia cells (IC50 5.8 nM and 0.11 nM, respectively) than SPM

Resveratrol is found in grapes, red wine, and berries. Resveratrol has been known to have many beneficial health effects, such as anti-cancer, neuroprotective, anti-nociceptive, and life-prolonging effects. However, the single cellular mechanisms by which resveratrol acts are relatively unknown,

Two isoflavones, daidzein (1) and genistein (2), were isolated from soybean hypocotyls. Daidzein and genistein showed a suppressive effect on umu gene expression of the SOS response in Salmonellatyphimurium TA1535/pSK1002 against the mutagen 3-amino-1, 4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido[4,3b]indole (Trp-P-1),

Glycine inhibited growth of B16 melanoma tumors in vivo most likely because of the inhibition of angiogenesis. Here, the hypothesis that the anticancer effect of glycine in vivo is due to expression of a glycine-gated Cl- channel in endothelial cells was tested. First, the effects of glycine on

Asparagine deamidation in peptides or in fibronectin fragments containing the asparagine-glycine-arginine sequence generates isoaspartate-glycine-arginine (isoDGR), a new alphavbeta3 integrin-binding motif. Because alphavbeta3 is expressed in angiogenic vessels, we hypothesized that

Gelsemium, a small genus of flowering plant from the family Loganiaceae, comprises five species including the popular Gelsemium sempervirens Ait. and Gelsemium elegans Benth., which are indigenous to North America and China/East Asia, respectively. Approximately 120 alkaloids have been isolated and

In a recent study published in Cancer Research, Xia and colleagues reported that, in cancer, constituents in serine-glycine-one-carbon (SGOC) metabolism exhibit enhanced transcriptional activation and are increasingly utilised, which results in more glucose-derived carbon to serine-glycine

Dietary glycine inhibited hepatocyte proliferation in response to the carcinogen WY-14,643. Since increased cell replication is associated with hepatic cancer caused by WY-14,643, glycine may have anti-cancer properties. Therefore, these experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that dietary

Glycine decarboxylase (GLDC) is a metabolic oncogene that links glycine metabolism with tumorigenesis. In humans, GLDC is part of a multienzyme complex (which includes the lipoyl-containing H-protein) that couples the decarboxylation of glycine to the biosynthesis of serine. Details of the
