dolichos biflorus/抗癌藥

We examined the in vivo localization of Con A sup-cultured murine splenocytes separated with Dolichos biflorus agglutin (DBA) to elucidate the mechanism underlying the high antitumor efficacy of cells which are not agglutinable with DBA (DBA- cells). First, 51Cr-labeled DBA-separated cells were

Spleen cells of X5563 tumor-bearing mice were fractionated with Dolichos biflorus lectin (DBA) into DBA+ (agglutinable with DBA) and DBA- (nonagglutinable with DBA) fractions. The DBA- cells showed antitumor activity specific for X5563 cells in vivo when injected into mice together with X5563 cells

Anti-tumour effector cells were generated through 4 days culture of normal C57BL/6 splenocytes in a medium containing concanavalin A supernatant and then fractionated with Dolichos biflorus lectin (DBA) into DBA+ (agglutinable with DBA) and DBA- (non-agglutinable with DBA) cells. The DBA- cells,

Neovascularization and jeopardized immunity has been critically emphasized for the establishment of malignant progression. Lectins are the diverse class of carbohydrate interacting proteins, having great potential as immunopotentiating and anti-cancer agents. The present investigation sought to

Effect of consumption of three different doses (2%, 4% and 6%, w/w) of Dolichos biflorus Linn. seeds on hepatic drug metabolizing enzymes, antioxidant enzymes, reduced glutathione content, lactate dehydrogenase and lipid peroxidation in Swiss albino mice has been reported. Anti-carcinogenic effect

The major proteinase inhibitor in horse gram (Dolichos biflorus) is a low molecular weight (approximately 8500) Bowman-Birk inhibitor (BBI), HGI-III, that inhibits both trypsin and chymotrypsin simultaneously. Analysis of the reactivity of the polyclonal antibodies raised against native HGI-III,

Cell surface glycans change during the process of malignant transformation. To characterize and distinguish endometrial cancer and endometrium, we performed glycan profiling using an emerging modern technology, lectin microarray analysis. The three cell lines, two from endometrial cancers

Cancer cells with immunogenic properties having altered protein glycosilation, modified blood group substances have been widely studied [Kannagi R, Miyake M, Zenita KM, Itai S, Hiraiwa N, Shigeta K, et al. Cancer-associated carbohydrate antigens: modified blood group substances and oncodevelopmental

Plants are a source of over a quarter of the prescription drugs currently in use worldwide. Zimbabwe has a rich plant biodiversity with only a limited number reported for the treatment of cancer. The leaf extracts of Dolichos kilimandscharicus were selected for the screening of their

Plant protease inhibitors (PIs) are generally small proteins which play key roles in regulation of endogenous proteases and may exhibit antifeedant, antifungal, antitumor and cytokine inducing activities. Dolichos biflorus (horse gram) is an unexploited legume, which is rich in nutrients and also

Toxoplasma gondii, the agent of Toxoplasmosis, is an obligate intracellular protozoan able to infect a wide range of vertebrate cells, including nonprofessional and professional phagocytes. Therefore, drugs must have intracellular activities in order to control this parasite. The most common therapy

The influences of substoichiometric amounts of seven plant extracts in the Fenton reaction-mediated damage to deoxynucleosides, deoxynucleoside monophosphates, deoxynucleoside triphosphates, and supercoiled plasmid DNA were studied to rationalize anticancer properties reported in some of these
