lantana camara/neoplasms

Lantana ukambensis (Vatke) Verdc. (Verbenaceae) is a seasonal herb widely spread in the West African region. The whole plant is used for the treatment of wounds, infections, and inflammatory pathologies. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the cytotoxicity and to analyze the probable

In this paper, we report the synthesis of gold nanoconjugates (b-Au-LM) using the aqueous leaf extract of Lantana montevidensis (LM), a naturally available medicinal plant. The biosynthesized b-Au-LM was biocompatible in both in vitro and in vivo systems. However, the LM extract as well as b-Au-LM

In an effort to discover potent inhibitors of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-xL, a systematic in vitro evaluation was undertaken on extracts prepared from various parts of Vietnamese plants. The ethyl acetate extracts obtained from the leaves and flowers of Combretum sundaicum and the leaves of

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been widely used in many applications. Their usage as drug delivery vehicles has also gained considerable attention due to their chemical and optical properties as well as their good biocompatibility. The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of AuNPs

Although a number of chemicals have been isolated from Lantana camara, only a few have been evaluated for their biological significance. As part of our drug discovery program for cytotoxic agents from Indian medicinal plants, roots of L. camara L. were chemically investigated, which resulted in the

Chronic toxicity of arsenic resulting from drinking water is a health problem encountered in humans, especially in South America and Asia, where a correlation between oxidative stress, tumor promotion, and arsenic exposure has been observed. Differential solvent extraction (petroleum ether (PE);

The objective of this study was to evaluate antiproliferative activity, antioxidant capacity and tannin content in plants from semi-arid northeastern Brazil (Caatinga). For this study, we selected 14 species and we assayed the methanol extracts for antiproliferative activity against the HEp-2

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, and the second most fatal cancer in women after lung cancer. Because there are instances of cancer resistance to existing therapies, studies focused on the identification of novel therapeutic drugs are very important. In this study, we

Lantana camara is an important medicinal plant that contains many active compounds, including pentacyclic triterpenoids, with numerous biological activities. The present study was conducted to evaluate the anti-oxidant, anti-tumour, and cell cycle arrest properties of chemical compounds extracted

Five new derivatives of the pentacyclic triterpenoid lantadene A (= 22beta-angeloyloxy-3-oxoolean-12-en-28-oic acid; 1) from the leaves of Lantana camara L. were synthesized, characterized, and screened for their cytotoxicities against four human cancer cell lines. The three most-potent compounds,

Lantadenes are pentacyclic triterpenoids of the weed Lantana camara. Five new lantadenes (14-18) and their methyl esters (20-24) were synthesized, characterized, and screened for cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines. The parent compound (1) and the four most active compounds (15, 16,

The antitumor pentacyclic triterpenoids, Lantadene A (1) and B (2) were isolated from the leaves of weed Lantana camara L. (Verbenaceae) and were structurally transformed to bioactive intermediates 3-6. The Claisen-Schmidt reaction of 22β-hydroxy-3-oxoolean-12-en-28-oic acid (5) with requisite

Lantana camara, the widely studied species, and L. montevidensis, the less studied species of the genus Lantana are both used in traditional medicine for the same purpose (anti-asthma, anti-ulcer, anti-tumor, etc). However, little is known about the toxicity of L. montevidensis and there is limited

Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the leading causes of death in cancer and yet no drug has proven to be a successful candidate for its treatment in advanced stages. Ursolic acid stearoyl glucoside (UASG) is a newly discovered triterpene in Lantana camara and there lies a possibility that it
