Norditerpenoids and dinorditerpenoids represent diterpenoids widely distributed in the genus Podocarpus with notable chemical structures and biological activities. We previously reported that nagilactone E (NLE), a dinorditerpenoid isolated from Podocarpus nagi, possessed anticancer effects against
A phytochemical investigation of twigs of Podocarpus nagi resulted in the identification of eight new type B nagilactones (1-8), all bearing a 7α,8α-epoxy-9(11)-enolide substructure, along with two known analogs (9-10). Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analysis,
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most common forms and leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide, and discovery of new effective drugs still remains imperative to improve the survival rate. Nagilactone E (NLE) is a natural product isolated from Podocarpus nagi seeds, which
Natural compounds such as paclitaxel and camptothecin have great effects on tumor treating. Such natural chemicals often achieve anti-tumor effects through a variety of mechanisms. Therefore, it is of great significance to push forward the studies on the anticancer mechanism of natural anticancer to
Nagilactone E (NLE), a natural product with anticancer activities, is isolated from Podocarpus nagi. In this study, we reported that NLE increased programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expressions at both protein and mRNA levels in human lung cancer cells, and enhanced its localization on the cell
