Petasiphenone, a phenol isolated from Cimicifuga racemosa, in vitro inhibits proliferation of the human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP.

Only registered users can translate articles

Extracts of Cimicifuga racemosa (L.) Nutt. (syn.: Actaea racemosa L.) (CR) inhibit the proliferation of the human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP. Recently, the phenylpropanoid ester 3,4-dihydroxyphenacyl caffeate (petasiphenone, 1) was isolated from CR. This substance is a structural homologue to

Effect of carbon tetrachloride on carcinogenicity of petasites japonicus and transplantability of induced tumors.

Only registered users can translate articles

Effect of carbon tetrachloride on the carcinogenicity of the flower stalk of Petasites japonicus was examined in 3 experimental groups of inbred strain ACI rats. Group 1 received 4% petasites diet until termination of the experiment and intragastric administration of CC14, once every 2 weeks, for a

Cytotoxic activities of sesquiterpenoids from the aerial parts of Petasites japonicus against cancer stem cells

Only registered users can translate articles

From the methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Petasites japonicus, six new eremophilane-type sesquiterpenoids, petasitesterpenes I-VI were isolated together with eight known compounds including S-japonin and eremophilenolide. The chemical structures of the isolated new compounds were elucidated

Isopetasin and S-isopetasin as novel P-glycoprotein inhibitors against multidrug-resistant cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

A major problem of cancer treatment is the development of multidrug resistance (MDR) to chemotherapy. MDR is caused by different mechanisms such as the expression of the ABC-transporters P-glycoprotein (P-gp, MDR1, ABCB1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP, ABCG2). These

Mechanisms of relaxant action of S-petasin and S-isopetasin, sesquiterpenes of Petasites formosanus, in isolated guinea pig trachea.

We investigated the mechanisms of action of S-petasin and S-isopetasin, from Petasites formosanus Kitamura which is used as a folk medicine for treating hypertension, tumors, and asthma in Taiwan. The tension changes of tracheal segments were isometrically recorded on a polygraph. S-Petasin and

Petasiphenol which inhibits DNA polymerase lambda activity is an inhibitor of in vitro angiogenesis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Petasiphenol, a polyphenolic compound from a Japanese vegetable (Petasites japonicus) which is a DNA polymerase lambda selective inhibitor, was demonstrated as a potent antiangiogenic agent in this study. Petasiphenol showed suppressive effects on in vitro angiogenesis assays, human umbilical vein

AMPK/Nrf2 signaling is involved in the anti-neuroinflammatory action of Petatewalide B from Petasites japonicus against lipopolysaccharides in microglia.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Abnormal microglia secrete neuroinflammatory factors that play a pivotal role in neurodegenerative-disorder development. Thus, regulating abnormal microglia-activation could be a promising therapeutic strategy. The purposes of this study included investigating the effect of Petatewalide B

Bakkenolides from Petasites tatewakianus.

Only registered users can translate articles

A new bakkenolide and a known one were isolated from Petasites tatewakianus. The structure of the new compound was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods including IR, EIMS, HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR, and the known compound was established by single crystal X-ray structural analysis. The in

Carcinogenic activity of petasitenine, a new pyrrolizidine alkaloid isolated from Petasites japonicus Maxim.

Only registered users can translate articles

The carcinogenic activity of petasitenine, a new pyrrolizidine alkaloid isolated from young flower stalk of Petasites japonicus, was studied in ACI rats. All rats that had received a 0.05% solution of petasitenine in drinking water died or were killed in moribund condition 72 days after the start of

Bakkenolide A inhibits leukemia by regulation of HDAC3 and PI3K/Akt-related signaling pathways.

Only registered users can translate articles

Leukemia has been the third type of cancer killing many people across the world. Bakkenolide A (Bak), extracted from Petasites tricholobus, has been suggested to against cancer and display protective effects on inflammatory cytokines formation. And increasing evidences suggest that histone

Two new sulfated sesquiterpenoids, megastigman-7-ene-3, 5, 6, 9-tetrol-3-O-β-D-6'-sulfonated-glucopyranoside (1) and 3-O-β-D-6'-sulfonated-glucopyranosyl-6-(3-oxo-2-butenylidenyl)-1, 1, 5-trimethylcyclohexan-5-ol (2), along with one known sesquitepenoid compound icariside B1 (3) were isolated from

S-Petasin, the Main Sesquiterpene of Petasites formosanus, Inhibits Phosphodiesterase Activity and Suppresses Ovalbumin-Induced Airway Hyperresponsiveness.

Only registered users can translate articles

S-Petasin is the main sesquiterpene of Petasites formosanus, a traditional folk medicine used to treat hypertension, tumors and asthma in Taiwan. The aim of the present study was to investigate its inhibitory effects on phosphodiesterase (PDE) 1-5, and on ovalbumin (OVA)-induced airway

Petasites japonicus bakkenolide B inhibits lipopolysaccharide‑induced pro‑inflammatory cytokines via AMPK/Nrf2 induction in microglia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Abnormal neuroinflammatory responses have diverse roles in neuronal death, oxidative stress and neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Microglia regulate these responses via molecular signaling cascades that involve inflammatory cytokines and complement proteins.

Koreans have been consuming Petasites Japonicus (PJ) as food. Although the therapeutic effect of PJ on allergic or inflammatory reactions associated with asthma has been proven, its effect on obesity is unclear. Therefore, the present study was aimed to assess the obesity related

Antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic effect of methanol extracts of Petasites japonicus Maxim leaves.

Only registered users can translate articles

The methanol extract from the leaves of Petasites japonicus Maxim (PJ) was studied for its (anti-)mutagenic effect with the SOS chromotest and reverse mutation assay. The (anti-)carcinogenic effects were evaluated by the cytotoxicity on human cancer line cells and by the function and the expression
