peperomia/抗癌藥

Peperomia pellucida leaf extract was characterized for its anticancer, antimicrobial, antioxidant activities, and chemical compositions. Anticancer activity of P. pellucida leaf extract was determined through Colorimetric MTT (tetrazolium) assay against human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) cell line

Our previous research found the ethyl acetate extract of Peperomia tetraphylla (EAEPT) inhibited the growth of U937 cells by blocking the cell cycle and prompted apoptosis via the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-medicated mitochondria pathway. While the compounds in EAEPT which possessed the

Five new compounds (1-5), including two secolignans, two tetrahydrofuran lignans, and one highly methoxylated dihydronaphthalenone, were isolated from the whole plant of Peperomia pellucida. These compounds were accompanied by the known peperomins A, B, C, and E,

OBJECTIVE Two surveys were conducted to evaluate the Man to Man program, a prostate cancer self-help group of the American Cancer Society (ACS). METHODS The study involved two surveys in Colorado and Utah in 2001, one of program participants, the other of area urologists, respectively. A focus group

Six new dibenzylbutyrolactone (6-11) and two new dibenzylbutanediol lignans (12, 13) were obtained from Peperomia duclouxii. The structures were elucidated mainly by the analysis of NMR and MS data. The anticancer activity against a normal (WI-38) and a simian virus 40-transformed human lung

OBJECTIVE Peperomin E (PepE), a natural secolignan isolated from the whole plant of Peperomia dindygulensis, has been reported by ourselves and others to display potent anti-cancer effects in many types cancer cells, especially gastric cancer. However, the effects of PepE on the metastasis of

Peperotetraphin (methyl rel-(1R,2S,3S)-2,3-bis(7-methoxy-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl) cyclobutanecarboxylate) was a novel cyclobutane-type norlignan, which was isolated from the whole plant of Peperomia tetraphylla. In this study, we explored its anti-tumor effect and the molecular mechanism in human

Advanced lung cancer has poor prognosis owing to its low sensitivity to current chemotherapy agents. Therefore, discovery of new therapeutic agents is urgently needed. In this study, we investigated the antitumor effects of peperomin E, a secolignan isolated from Peperomia dindygulensis, a

Three long-chain aliphatic compounds, including one new polyketide derivative, dindygulerione C (1), one new octaketide derivative, dindygulerione D (2) and one new acylresorcinol derivative dindyguleranone (3) were isolated from the whole plant of the Chinese anticancer folk medicine Peperomia

UNASSIGNED Peperomia belongs to the family of Piperaceae. It has different uses in folk medicine and contains rare compounds that have led to increased interest in this genus. Peperomia blanda (Jacq.) Kunth is used as an injury disinfectant by Yemeni people. In addition, the majority of Yemen's

Peperomin E (PepE), a naturally occurring secolignan isolated from Peperomia dindygulensis, has drawn much attention recently owing to its anticancer and DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) inhibitory activity. Here, a simple and sensitive ultra-fast liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method

Mutagenicity and antimutagenicity potentials were tested using Ames' test in crude distilled water and absolute ethanol extracts from the stems and leaves of Peperomia pellucida (Linn.) Kunth, Eichhornia crassipes Solms, Colocasia esculenta Schott and Brachiaria mutica (Forssk.) Stapf, and the stems

BACKGROUND Peperomin E (PepE) is a type of secolignan that is a major component of the plant Peperomia dindygulensis. It has been shown to exert anticancer effects in various cancer cell lines; however, the effects of PepE on human gastric cancer remain unexplored. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study
