wikstroemia taiwanensis/抗癌药

Bioassay-directed isolation of the antitumor extract of Wikstroemia indica (Thymelaeaceae) has led to the characterization of tricin, kaempferol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, and (+)-nortrachelogenin as the major antileukemic constituents. In addition, daphnoretin was identified as the potent

The ethanol extracts of Wikstroemia foetida var. oahuensis and Wikstroemia uva-ursi showed antitumor activity against the P-388 lymphocytic leukemia (3PS) test system One PS-active constituent of both plants was the lignan wikstromol. Several inactive compounds were identified as daphnoretin,

Antitumor and anti-HIV flavonoids and their analogues will be reviewed with emphasis on those discovered in our laboratory. The active antitumor compounds include the antileukemic tricin (1) and kaempferol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (2) from Wikstroemia indica, the cytotoxic hinokiflavone (3) from

BACKGROUND The genus Wikstroemia has about 70 species, but only a limited number of species have been studied chemically. Wikstroemia indica has long been used as a traditional crude drug in China. However, there is no report about the bioactivity of Wikstroemia scytophylla. OBJECTIVE This paper

A new tricoumarin glycoside, triumbelletin-7-O-β-d-glucoside (1) and a new biflavonoid, wikstroflavone A (2), together with two known compounds, wikstaiwanone A (3) and wikstaiwanone B (4), were isolated from the rhizome of Wikstroemia indica. The structures of new compounds were elucidated by

Daphnoretin is a bicoumarin compound isolated from a natural product, Wikstroemia indica, which has been used to treat many diseases. It has strong antiviral and anti-tumor activities. Taking the anti-tumor activity of daphnoretin as a starting point, the present study aimed to test the

Daphnoretin is an active constituent of Wikstroemia indica C.A. Mey., which is widely distributed in the northwest and southwest regions of China. Previous studies have shown that daphnoretin has anticancer effects on leukemia, osteosarcoma and uterine cervix cancer cells. However, the effect of

Daphnoretin, an active constituent of Wikstroemia indica C.A. Meys, has been shown possessing anti-cancer activity. In this study, we examined the effect of daphnoretin on differentiation and maturation of human myeloid dendritic cells (DCs). After treatment with daphnoretin (0, 1.1, 3.3, 10 and

Background: Curcumin (CUR) is a natural diarylheptanoid with marked anti-tumor activities. Recent investigations demonstrate that CUR combines with some other phytochemicals exerts advantages over its single application manifested as

BACKGROUND The rhizome of Wikstroemia indica (L.) C. A. Mey (Thymelaeaceae) is widespread in China which has been widely used in China as folk medicine for the treatment of syphilis, arthritis, whooping cough, and cancer. Due to its multiactivities, its extract has an attractive potential as a

Wikstroemia indica (L.) C. A. Mey. is a member of family Thymelaeaceae and mainly distributes in middle and southeast part of China. As a traditional Chinese herb, this plant has long been employed as antipyretics, detoxicants, expectorants, vermifuges as well as aborticides in clinic practice.
