Eriocalyxin B (EriB), a natural ent-kaurane diterpenoid presented in the plant Isodon eriocalyx var. laxiflora, has been reported to diminish angiogenesis-dependent breast tumor growth. In the present study, the effects of EriB on human breast cancer and its underlying mechanisms were further

The aberrant activation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway plays an important role in the oncogenesis, prognosis and chemotherapy resistance of neuroblastoma. However, NVP-BEZ235, a potent dual PI3K and mTOR inhibitor have not shown beneficial effects on neuroblastoma especially in terms of

Melissoidesin G (MOG) is a new diterpenoid purified from Isodon melissoides, a plant used in Chinese traditional medicine as antitumor and anti-inflammatory agents. In our study, MOG was shown to specifically inhibit the growth of human leukemia cell lines and primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML)

Isodon wightii is a common plant found in the Western Ghats of South India. The ent-kaurene diterpenoid melissoidesin, isolated from the leaves of I. wightii, showed significant cytotoxicity against lung cancer and neuroblastoma cell lines with IC(50) values of 6 and 4.2 microg mL(-1), respectively.

Nanomedicine is a rapidly emerging field and is reported to be a promising tool for treating various diseases. Green synthesized nanoparticles are documented to possess a potent anticancer effect. Rabdosia rubescens is a Chinese plant which is also one of the components of PC-SPES and used to

Oridonin, an ent-kaurane diterpenoid mainly extracted from Chinese medical plant Rabdosia rubescens and some related species, has been reported its remarkable antitumor efficacy in various cancer cells. This review will be focused on the underlying molecular mechanisms for the treatments of oridonin

Oridonin, a diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens, has been proven to possess various pharmacological and physiological effects such as anti-inflammation, anti-bacterial, and anti-neoplastic, although in recent years, more attention has been paid to its anti-neoplastic effects. For example,

High-purity oridonin was isolated and identified from Rabdosia rubescens hemsl by preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Stealth liposomes of oridonin were prepared by thin-film ultrasonic dispersion using polyethylene glycol-distearoylphosphatidyleth-anolamine(PEG2000-DSPE) as

Jaridon 6, a novel ent-kaurene diterpenoid derived from Rabdosia rubescens (Hemsl.) Hara, possesses strong anti-tumor activity in esophageal cancer cells. In this study, we explored the underlying molecular events of the anti-tumor activity of Jaridon 6. Cell viability and apoptosis results obtained

Oridonin is the main bioactive constituent of the Chinese medicinal herb Isodon rubescens and has been shown to have anti-neoplastic effects against a number of cancers in vitro and in vivo. Here we report the proteomic identification of proteins involved in the anticancer properties of oridonin in

Gastric cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Oridonin, a diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens, has attracted considerable attention as a potential treatment for gastric cancer based on its anti-tumor effects in many tumor cell lines. However, detailed anti-tumor mechanisms

Oridonin, an ent-kaurane diterpene isolated from well known Chinese medicinal plant Isodon rubescens, has been shown to have multiple biological activities. Among them, the anticancer activity has been repeatedly reported by many research groups. The chemopreventive and antitumor effects of oridonin

Here we investigated the potential immune-enhancing activity of Isodon japonicus on murine splenocyte and natural-killer (NK) cells in vitro. The ethanol extract of I. japonicus significantly enhanced the proliferation of splenocyte and induced the significant enhancement of NK cells' activity

Ponicidin, an ent-kaurane diterpenoid derived from Rabdosia rubescens, exhibits antitumor activities against several types of cancers. This review summarizes the botanical sources, biological activities, and biopharmaceutical profile of ponicidin. Additionally, a molecular docking study has been

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a transmembrane glycoprotein, is expressed at high levels in a large proportion of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). Cetuximab (Cet), an anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody, has limited clinical outcome for patients with head and neck squamous cell
