schisandra pubescens/breast neoplasms

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subgroup of human breast cancer. In this study, we have examined the potential of Schisandrin B (Sch B), a bioactive chemical compound found in Schisandra chinensis, against TNBC. We used MDA-MB-231, BT-549, and MDA-MB-468 TNBC cells and

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer lacking prognostic and effective therapeutic targets currently. In this study, we evaluated the toxic potential of schisandrin A (SchA), a bioactive phytochemical found in Schisandra chinensis in TNBC. The anti-cancer effect and

Schizandrin is one of the main dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans present in the fruit of Schisandra chinensis (Schisandraceae). Biological activities including hepatoprotective, antiviral and neuroprotective effects of schizandrin and other dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans have been reported previously.

Chemical investigation into the stems of the medicinal plant Schisandra sphaerandra led to the isolation and identification of a new dibenzocyclooctadiene lignan sphaerandrin A (1) and 11 known ones gomisin B (2), schirubrisin B (3), kadsuphilin B (4), schizandrin

In attempting to identify effective anticancer drugs from natural products that are harmless to humans, we found that the gomisin J from Schisandra chinensis fruit has anticancer activity. Schisandra chinensis fruits are used in traditional herbal medicine and gomisin J is one of their chemical

Phytochemical investigation of hexane extract from the fruits of Schisandra grandiflora afforded three novel sesquiterpenes (1-3) along with the three known compounds (4-6). The structures of these isolates were determined by extensive analysis of spectroscopic data (1D, 2D NMR). Further, a series

Extensive phytochemical investigation of Schisandra sphenanthera leaves resulted in the isolation of six highly oxygenated nortriterpenoids (1-6) and five lignans (7-11) including a new pre-schisanartane-type, schisandrathera A (1), a new dibenzocyclooctadiene glycoside,

BACKGROUND The ethnic Chinese Yao medicine Baizuan, which are the leaves of Schisandra viridis A. C. Smith, is traditionally used, in combination with other herbs, to soften hard lumps and dispel nodes in the treatment of cancer, however, this property has not been well studied with a clear

Three new (alterchothecenes A - C, 1: -3: ) and 3 known (4: -6: ) trichothecenes, along with 9 known compounds (7: -15: ), were isolated from the culture of Alternaria sp. sb23, an endophytic fungus separated from the root of Schisandra sphenanthera Rehd. et Wils. Their structures were

Naturopathic physicians commonly make dietary and/or dietary supplement recommendations for breast cancer prevention. This placebo-controlled, parallel-arm, pilot study tested the effects of two naturopathic interventions over five menstrual cycles on sex steroid hormones and metabolic markers in 40
