isodon interruptus/leukemia

Effects of Rabdocoetsin B (Rabd-B), a diterpenoid extracted from Isodon coetsa, on t(8;21) leukemic cells was tested by CCK-8 assay and Flow cytometry. The A549 cells stably expressing pGC-E1-ZU1-GFP were treated with Rabd-B for 4 h, and the accumulation of GFP was detected by fluorescence

We investigated the effects of oridonin (Ori), a diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens, on apoptosis and differentiation of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA)-sensitive (NB4) and ATRA-resistant (NB4-R1) cells. The results showed that reactive oxygen species initiates Ori-induced apoptosis. In

Oridonin, an extract from the Chinese herb Rabdosia rubescens, is currently one of the most important traditional Chinese herbal medicines. Recently oridonin has been reported to have anti- tumor effects in a large variety of malignant diseases. In this study, we investigated the apoptotic inducing

Ponicidin, an extract from the Chinese herb Rabdosia rubescens, is currently one of the most important traditional Chinese herbal medicines. Ponicidin has been reported to have anti-tumor effects on a large variety of malignant diseases. In this study, we investigated the anti-proliferation effects

Diterpenoids isolated from Labiatae family herbs have strong antitumor activities with low toxicity. In this study, Eriocalyxin B (EriB), a diterpenoid extracted from Isodon eriocalyx, was tested on human leukemia/lymphoma cells and murine leukemia models. Acute myeloid leukemia cell line Kasumi-1

Cisplatin is the first generation platinum-based chemotherapy agent. However, the extensive application of cisplatin inevitably causes drug resistance, which is a major obstacle to cancer chemotherapy. Oridonin is a diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens with potent anticancer activity. The

Oridonin, obtained from the traditional Chinese herbal medicine rabdosia rubescens, exerts potent antitumor activities in cancer cells. Valproic acid (VPA), as a potent histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACI), also plays an important role in inhibition of proliferation of tumor cells. However, there

Oridonin, an active diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens, has been reported to exhibit anticancer activities in several tumors. The aim of the present study was to investigate the anticancer effects and molecular mechanisms of oridonin in mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC). Treatment with

BACKGROUND Oridonin is a diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens with potent anticancer activities. Valproic acid (VPA) is a recently emerged antineoplastic histone deacetylase inhibitor. The aim of the present study is to investigate the synergistic role of oridonin and VPA to inhibit the

OBJECTIVE Skewed cytoplasmic accumulation of NPM mutant protein (NPM1c+) is close related to leukemia pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether oridonin, a diterpenoid isolated from the Chinese traditional medicine Rabdosia rubescens, was able to interfere with NPM1c+ protein

A novel 14,20-epoxy-ent-kaurene diterpenoid, excisanin H (1), and three new ent-kaurene diterpenoids, 2-4, were isolated from aerial parts of Rabdosia excisa along with eight known ent-kaurene diterpenoids, 5-12. The structural elucidations were made using spectral (HREIMS, IR, (1)H, (13)C, and 2D

[structure: see text] A novel diterpene with an unprecedented tetracyclic 6,7:8,15-di-seco-7,20-olide-6,8-cyclo-ent-kaurane skeleton, named maoecrystal Z (1), has been isolated from the leaves of a Chinese medicinal herb, Isodon eriocalyx (Labiatae). Its structure was determined by comprehensive NMR

Three new ent-abietanoids, named xerophilusins XIV-XVI, and four known analogues, as well as four known chemical constituents were isolated from the leaves of Isodon xerophilus. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic studies, and comparison with literature data. In addition, the

Five new ent-kaurane diterpenoids, ludongnins F-J (1-5), along with 10 known compounds, guidongnins A-C (6-8), angustifolin (9), 6-epiangustifolin (10), sculponeatin J (11), gardenin D, 5,3',4'-trihydroxy-6,7,8-trimethoxyflavone, pedalitin, and quercetin, were isolated from the leaves of Isodon

The present study was performed to investigate the chemical components of the branches and leaves of Isodon rubescens. Two 6,7-seco-spiro-lacton-ent-kauranoids were obtained. Based on the extensive spectroscopic analyses, their structures were elucidated as 6-epi-11-O-acetylangustifolin (1) and
