Embelin-Induced Apoptosis of Human Prostate Cancer Cells Is Mediated through Modulation of Akt and β-Catenin Signaling.

Only registered users can translate articles

There is increasing evidence that embelin, an active component of Embelia ribes, induces apoptosis in human cancer cells, but the detailed mechanisms are still unclear. Here, we have investigated the effect of embelin on the growth of human prostate cancer cells. Embelin strongly inhibited cell

XIAP inhibitor Embelin inhibits bladder cancer survival and invasion in vitro.

BACKGROUND Bladder cancer is the second most common urological malignancy around the world and is by far the most frequent urological malignancy in China. Embelin is an active compound identified as a novel X-chromosome-linked IAP (XIAP) inhibitor from the Embelia ribes that exhibits various

Embelin (2,5-Dihydroxy-3-undecyl-p-benzoquinone) for photodynamic therapy: study of their cytotoxicity in cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the use of photochemical reactions mediated through the interaction of photosensitizing agent for the treatment of malignant tumor. The present study was carried out to evaluate the photosensitizing potential of embelin isolated from Embelia ribes. For PDT study,

Embelin (2,5-dihydroxy-3-undecyl-p-benzoquinone): a bioactive molecule isolated from Embelia ribes as an effective photodynamic therapeutic candidate against tumor in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

A phytochemical study of the methanol extract of the leaves of Embelia schimperi resulted in the isolation of three new alkenylresorcinols, 1: - 3: , together with the known analogs 4: - 7: . Their structures were established by a combination of spectroscopic techniques. Compounds 1: - 7:

New alkylresorcinols from the fruits of Embelia ribes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Nine new alkylresorcinols, designated as embelialkylresorcinols A-I (1-9), along with five known compounds (10-14) were isolated from the fruits of Embelia ribes. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis (1D, 2D NMR and HRESIMS), optical rotation data and modified Mosher
