micromelum integerrimum/抗癌药

Emerging evidence present credible support in favour of the potential role of mahanine and girinimbine, non-toxic herbal carbazole alkaloids occur in the edible part of Murraya koenigii, Micromelum minutum, M. zeylanicum, and M. euchrestiolia. Mahanine and girinimbine are the major potent compounds

Extracts of Micromelum integerrimum (Buch.-Ham. ex Coleb.) M. Roem. were fractionated based on in vivo activity in mice in the P-388 lymphocytic leukemia system. Activity in ethanol extracts was concentrated in the chloroform partition fraction, which was further resolved by chromatography on silica

The antimutagenic activity against Trp-P-1 of methanolic extracts of 118 samples (108 species) of edible Thai plants was examined by the Ames Test. The activity was evaluated by the amount of plant extracts which suppressed 90% of the mutagenesis (ED90). Five plants, Micromelum minutum, Oroxylum

The effects of ethanol extracts from Thai plants on P-glycoprotein (P-gp) function and cell viability were examined using paclitaxel-resistant HepG2 (PR-HepG2) cells. KP018 from Ellipeiopsis cherrevensis and AT80 from Ancistrocladus tectorius increased both rhodamine 123, a typical P-gp substrate,
