Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a highly malignant cancer with poor response to both of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. 2-Acetylamino-3-[4-(2-acetylamino-2-carboxyethylsulfanylcarbonylamino) phenyl carbamoylsulfanyl] propionic acid (2-AAPA), an irreversible inhibitor of glutathione
Hypoxia is an important microenvironmental pressure present in the majority of solid tumors and, so, tumor hypoxia might be considered an attractive target for tumor therapy. One strategy for targeting hypoxia is to develop bioreductive prodrugs. In the present research, we synthesized a
Epidemiologic studies show that patients chronically consuming nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) for arthritis exhibit a reduced incidence of prostate cancer. In addition, some NSAIDs show anticancer activity in vitro. NSAIDs exert their anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting
The effect of different doses of synthetic antioxidant beta-(4-hydroxy-3,5-ditertbutylphenyl)propionic acid (phenosan) on the development of spontaneous leukemia in AKR mice was studied. The drug efficiency was determined from the survival curves, animal life spans, and the incidence of leukemia.
Excessive free iron and the associated oxidative damage are commonly related to carcinogenesis. Among the antioxidants known to protect against iron-induced oxidative abuse and carcinogenesis, melatonin and other indole compounds recently have received considerable attention. Indole-3-propionic acid
Edible mushrooms are rich sources of bioactive components. In this study, a polyphenol-rich extract, designated as PPEP, was isolated from an edible mushroom, Pleurotus eryngii. Using ultra high performance liquid chromatograph combined with triple time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF/MS/MS),
MCT2 is the major neuronal monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) that allows the supply of alternative energy substrates such as lactate to neurons. Recent evidence obtained by electron microscopy has demonstrated that MCT2, like alpha-amino-3-hydroxyl-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid (AMPA)
Sufficient therapy of pain is essential for the treatment of tumor patients. World Health Organisation (WHO)-guidelines recommend a combination of opioids with non-opioid-analgesics (NOA) for patients with medium to strong pain. Cancer pain is often a combination of pain caused by the tumor itself,
One of the mechanisms involved in the progression of diabetic nephropathy, the most common cause of end-stage renal failure, is angiogenic phenomenon associated with the increase of angiogenic factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A and angiopoietin (Ang)-2, an antagonist of
Propionic acid (PA) is widely used as an antifungal agent in food. It is present naturally at low levels in dairy products and occurs ubiquitously, together with other short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), in the gastro-intestinal tract of humans and other mammals as an end-product of the microbial
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States and emerging evidence supports that increased consumption of legumes, such as navy beans, can reduce risk. Navy bean consumption was previously shown to modulate host and microbiome metabolism, and this
Ketoprofen is a NSAIDs of the 2-aryl propionic acid class commonly used in the treatment of inflammatory rheumatic disease, acute pain and fever. Clinically, ketoprofen seems to reduce morphine requirements by 33 to 40% with ketoprofen's supposed central mechanism of analgesia. We evaluated the
New thiazolidine-4-one derivatives of 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)propionic acid (ibuprofen) have been synthesized as potential anti-inflammatory drugs. The structure of the new compounds was proved using spectral methods (FR-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, MS). The in vitro antioxidant potential of the synthesized
2-(8-Hydroxy-6-methoxy-1-oxo-1H-2-benzopyran-3-yl) propionic acid (NM-3) is an isocoumarin derivative that has recently entered clinical trials for evaluation as a p.o.-bioavailable, antiangiogenic molecule. NM-3 induces endothelial cell death at low microM concentrations by a nonapoptotic
Forestomach neoplasia induced by the apparently non-genotoxic carcinogens, butylated hydroxyanisole and propionic acid, appears to arise by way of sustained high levels of cellular proliferation. Several other inducers of enhanced cellular proliferation, or the consequential incidence of
