clausena indica/neoplasms

Clausena excavata Burm f. is used by traditional healers to treat cancer patients in South East Asia. The use of the plant and its compounds is based on Asian folklore with little or no scientific evidence supporting the therapeutic efficacy The current study aimed to determine the effect of pure

Clausemine-A (3), isolated from the stem and root bark of Clausena excavata, was synthesized using Suzuki cross-coupling and Oxidative coupling as the key step. Compound 3, and the other two structurally related biscarbazoles 1 and 2, showed potent cytotoxic activities against a variety of human

BACKGROUND Clausena excavata Burm.f. is a shrub traditionally used to treat cancer patients in Asia. The main bioactive chemical components of the plant are alkaloids and coumarins. In this study, we isolated clausenidin from the roots of C. excavata to determine its apoptotic effect on the colon

BACKGROUND CLAUSINE B, A CARBAZOLE ALKALOID ISOLATED FROM THE STEM BARK OF CLAUSENA EXCAVATA, WAS INVESTIGATED FOR ITS ANTIPROLIFERATIVE ACTIVITIES AGAINST FIVE HUMAN CANCER CELL LINES: HepG2 (hepatic cancer), MCF-7 (hormone-dependent breast cancer), MDA-MB-231 (non-hormone-dependent breast cancer),

BACKGROUND Beilschmiedia acuta Kosterm, Clausena anisata (Willd) Hook, Fagara tessmannii Engl., Newbouldia laevis Seem., and Polyscias fulva (Hiern) Harms. are medicinal plants used in Cameroonian traditional medicine in the treatment of various types of cancers. The present study aims at

UNASSIGNED Dentatin (DEN) (5-methoxy-2, 2-dimethyl-10-(1, 1-dimethyl-2propenyl) dipyran-2-one), a natural compound present in the roots of Clausena excavata Burm f, possesses pro-apoptotic and antiproliferative effects in various cancer cells. Because of its hydrophobicity, it is believed that its

This study was set to investigate antiproliferative potential of dentatin (a natural coumarin isolated from Clausena excavata Burm. F) against prostate cancer and to delineate the underlying mechanism of action. Treatment with dentatin dose-dependently inhibited cell growth of PC-3 and LNCaP

A study of the chemical constituents of the leaves of Clausena excavata cultivated in a greenhouse led to the isolation and identification of 10 new furanone-coumarins named clauslactones A (1), B (2), C (3), D (4), E (5), F (6), G (7), H (8), I (9), and J (10), together with a known carbazole,

Dentatin (DEN), purified from the roots of Clausena excavata Burm f., has poor aqueous solubility that reduces its therapeutic application. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of DEN-HPβCD (hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin) complex as an anticancer agent in HT29 cancer cell line and compare

A new furanocoumarin, clauhainanin A (1), together with seven known furanocoumarins (2-8), were isolated from the stems and leaves of Clausena hainanensis. The structure of 1 was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods and the known compounds were identified by comparisons with data reported

A new phenethanol, (2'R)-4-(2', 3'-dihydroxy-3'-methyl-butanoxy)-phenethanol (1), along with other eleven known benzene derivatives (2-12) were isolated from the roots, stems and leaves of Clausena excavata (Rutaceae). Compounds 3 and 4 are new natural products, and compounds 5-8, 10-12 were

The effects of fractions from hot aqueous extract, acetone extract and the folklore preparation of Clausena excavata were studied on mouse splenocyte proliferation. The fractions of hot aqueous and acetone extracts were found to be the most active. On the contrary, the fractions from the crude

One new carbazole alkaloid, excavatine A (1), and two additional new alkaloids, excavatine B (2) and excavatine C (3), were isolated from the stems and leaves of Clausena excavata Burm.f. (Rutaceae). Their structures were determined on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analyses, especially 2D-NMR

A phytochemical investigation on the stems and leaves of Clausena lenis led to the isolation of a new furanocoumarin, clauselenisin A (1), together with five known analogues (2-6). The structure of 1 was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods and the known compounds were identified by
