Plumbagin, a naphthoquinone derived from the medicinal plant Plumbago zeylanica, has been shown to exert anti-cancer and anti-proliferative activities in vitro as well as in animal tumor models. However, the mechanism underlying its anti-tumor action still remains unclear. CRM1 is a nuclear export

Plumbagin promotes mitochondrial mediated apoptosis in gefitinib sensitive and resistant A549 lung cancer cell line through enhancing reactive oxygen species generation

Only registered users can translate articles

Plumbagin (PL) is a natural naphthoquinone compound, isolated from Plumbago zeylanica that has cytotoxic and antimigratory potential in many cancer. However, the cytotoxic mechanism of plumbagin in drug resistant lung cancer is poorly understood. To reveal the mechanism, we studied the anticancer

Plumbagin Nanoparticles Induce Dose and pH Dependent Toxicity on Prostate Cancer Cells.

Context • Gastric cancer (GC) is the fourth most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the world. The current treatments include surgery and chemotherapy, either alone or in combination with radiotherapy, but the prognosis for patients with GC is usually poor. A safe

Discovery of Isoplumbagin as a Novel NQO1 Substrate and Anti-Cancer Quinone

Only registered users can translate articles

Isoplumbagin (5-hydroxy-3-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone), a naturally occurring quinone from Lawsonia inermis and Plumbago europaea, has been reported to have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity. Inflammation has long been implicated in cancer progression. In this study, we

Plumbagin, isolated from Plumbago zeylanica, induces cell death through apoptosis in human pancreatic cancer cells.

OBJECTIVE Pancreatic cancer is one of the most resistant malignancies. Several studies have indicated that plumbagin isolated from Plumbago zeylanica possesses anticancer activity. However, its antitumor effects against pancreatic cancer have not been explored. METHODS We investigated the effect of

Plumbagin induces cell death through a copper-redox cycle mechanism in human cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Plumbagin, a naphthoquinone derived from the medicinal plant Plumbago zeylanica has been shown to exert anticancer and anti-proliferative activities in cells in culture as well as animal tumor models. In our previous paper, we have reported the cytotoxic action of plumbagin in plasmid pBR322 DNA as
