Antitumour activities of sesquiterpene lactones from Inula helenium and Inula japonica.

Only registered users can translate articles

Eight sesquiterpene lactones were isolated from the roots of Inula helenium and flowers of I. japonica. Among them, isoalantolactone (3) and santamarine (6) exhibited significant growth inhibitory activities against gynecologic cancer cell lines, while others weakly inhibited the growth of the cell

A sesquiterpenelactone from Inula britannica induces anti-tumor effects dependent on Bcl-2 phosphorylation.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The over-expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 in cancer is associated with resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs. The phosphorylation of Bcl-2 is one mechanism by which anti-microtubule agents, such as paclitaxel or docetaxel, may inactivate Bcl-2. Although initially active in

Design, synthesis, and anti-tumor activity of (2-O-alkyloxime-3-phenyl)-propionyl-1-O-acetylbritannilactone esters.

UNASSIGNED The aim of this study is to explore the antioxidant and antiproliferative activities of aqueous extract from aerial parts of Inula helenium (L.) against human U-87 MG glioma cell line. UNASSIGNED The 3'-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide and lactate dehydrogenase

Antimutagenic and Antiapoptotic Effects of Aqueous Root Extract of Inula racemosa Hook. f. on 4-NQO-Induced Genetic Damage in Mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study was performed as part of an attempt to authenticate the use of Inula racemosa root extract as traditional medicine in India by experimentally investigating their protective effects on 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (4-NQO) induced DNA damage and apoptosis in mice bone marrow cells.

1, 6-O, O-Diacetylbritannilactone from Inula britannica Induces Anti-Tumor Effect on Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma via miR-1247-3p/LXRα/ABCA1 Signaling

Only registered users can translate articles

Introduction: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most prevalent malignancy affecting the oral cavity and is associated with severe morbidity and high mortality. 1, 6-O, O-Diacetylbritannilactone (OODBL) isolated from the medicinal

Anti-angiogenesis and immunomodulatory activities of an anti-tumor sesquiterpene bigelovin isolated from Inula helianthus-aquatica.

Only registered users can translate articles

Bigelovin is a sesquiterpene lactone isolated from the plant Inula helianthus-aquatica which was traditionally used in cancer treatment in Yunnan, China. The potent apoptotic activities of bigelovin in human leukemia U937 cells were shown in our previous study. The present study investigated the

Active ingredients of Inula helenium L. exhibits similar anti-cancer effects as isoalantolactone in pancreatic cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Isoalantolactone is one of the major active ingredients from Inula helenium L. However, it is low cost-effective to isolate isoalantolactone from Inula helenium L. In this study, we optimized the extraction strategy and obtained a mixture of active ingredients with exact proportion (termed as F35),

Sesquiterpenoids isolated from the flower of Inula japonica as potential antitumor leads for intervention of paclitaxel-resistant non-small-cell lung cancer

Only registered users can translate articles

Three new sesquiterpene lactone dimers (1-3) were isolated from the flowers of Inula japonica together with twenty-two known sesquiterpene derivatives (4-25). Their structures were established on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analyses. All isolates were evaluated for their antiproliferative

Antiproliferative activity of Hungarian Asteraceae species against human cancer cell lines. Part I.

Only registered users can translate articles

Aqueous and organic extracts of 25 selected species from four tribes of Hungarian Asteraceae were screened in vitro for antiproliferative activity against HeLa (cervix epithelial adenocarcinoma), A431 (skin epidermoid carcinoma) and MCF7 (breast epithelial adenocarcinoma) cells, using the MTT assay.
