scutellaria indica/breast neoplasms

Based on our previous observation, the whole Scutellaria baicalensis extract (SbE) did not show significant breast cancer cell inhibitory effect. In this study, we isolated a baicalin-deprived-fraction (SbF1) of Scutellaria baicalensis, and baicalin-fraction (SbF3), and evaluated their anti-breast

Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi extract (SBGE) is used in traditional herbal medicine and has also been used clinically to ameliorate the symptoms of various inflammatory diseases and cancer. In women, breast cancer is one of the most common diseases and numerous women succumb to it. The present

Hedyotis diffusa plus Scutellaria barbata is a couplet of medicinal that has been commonly used to treat inflammation-related diseases and various types of tumors. However, the effect of this couplet on tumor cell migration has not been elucidated. With the aid of MCF-7-BOM, a

Bezielle is an orally administered aqueous extract of Scutellaria barbata for treatment of advanced and metastatic breast cancer. Phase I trials showed promising tolerability and efficacy. In our study, we used a combined proteomic-metabolomic approach to investigate the molecular pathways affected

We have recently demonstrated that a natural dietary supplement BreastDefend (BD), which contains extracts from medicinal mushrooms (Coriolus versicolor, Ganoderma lucidum, Phellinus linteus), medicinal herbs (Scutellaria barbata, Astragalus membranaceus, Curcuma longa), and purified biologically

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of Yanghe Huayan Decoction (YHD, a representative recipe for warming yang mass dissipating) in inhibiting precancerosis of breast cancer (PBC) and on the protein and mRNA expression of ki67. METHODS The PBC rat model was established by dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA),

Metastasis is the main cause of death in breast cancer patients, which is due partly to the lack of effective treatment. Baicalin, a flavonoid compound isolated from the roots of Scutellaria lateriflora Georgi (Huang Qin), has recently been confirmed as an effective agent for the treatment of a

Currently drug resistance has remained a major challenge in successful breast cancer therapy. Wogonin, one of the active components of scutellaria baicalensis, has shown anticarcinogenic, chemopreventive, and immunoregulatory functions. The present study aimed to explore whether wogonin exerted

Estrogen performs an important role in the growth and development of breast cancer. There are at least three major receptors, including estrogen receptor (ER)α and β, and G protein-coupled receptor 30 (GPR30), which mediate the actions of estrogen through using transcriptional and rapid non-genomic

Hedyotis diffusa is a Chinese herbal medicine widely used in combination with other herbal medicines such as Scutellaria barbata to treat various types of cancer. Late-stage and recurrent cancer patients usually use H. diffusa during chemotherapy in expecting to achieve additive or synergistic

Flavonoids are structurally similar to steroid hormones, particularly estrogens, and therefore have been studied for their potential effects on hormone-dependent cancers. Baicalein is the primary flavonoid derived from the root of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi. In the present study, we investigated

The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BZL101 (FDA IND# 59,521), an orally delivered aqueous extract from the herb Scutellaria barbata, in women with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). The trial was an open-label, phase 1B, multicenter, dose escalation

BACKGROUND Botanical therapies are often used by breast cancer patients yet few clinical trials have evaluated their safety and efficacy. We studied mechanisms of activity and performed a phase I clinical trial in patients with advanced breast cancer to evaluate BZL101, an aqueous extract from

We studied the mechanism of the cytotoxic activity of BZL101, an aqueous extract from the herb Scutellaria barbata D. Don, which is currently in phase II clinical trial in patients with advanced breast cancer. The phase I trial showed favorable toxicity profile and promising efficacy. We report here
