Chiral resolution of a caged xanthone and evaluation across a broad spectrum of breast cancer subtypes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Racemic resolution of (+/-)-MAD28, a representative caged xanthone, was accomplished using (1S, 4R)-(-)-camphanic chloride as the chiral agent. Selective crystallization of the resulting diastereomers in acetonitrile produced, after hydrolysis, the pure enantiomers. Screening of racemic MAD28 and

Methylated Xanthones from the Rootlets of Metaxya rostrata Display Cytotoxic Activity in Colorectal Cancer Cells

Only registered users can translate articles

The tree fern Metaxya rostrata (Kunth) C. Presl is common in the rainforests of Central and South America, where suspensions of the dried rhizome are traditionally used to treat intestinal diseases. Two compounds from this plant, 2-deprenyl-rheediaxanthone B (XB) and

Cytotoxicity and structure-activity relationships of xanthone derivatives from Mesua beccariana, Mesua ferrea and Mesua congestiflora towards nine human cancer cell lines.

Only registered users can translate articles

The cytotoxic structure-activity relationships among a series of xanthone derivatives from Mesua beccariana, Mesua ferrea and Mesua congestiflora were studied. Eleven xanthone derivatives identified as mesuarianone (1), mesuasinone (2), mesuaferrin A (3), mesuaferrin B (4), mesuaferrin C (5),

Resolution and identification of scalemic caged xanthones from the leaf extract of Garcinia propinqua having potent cytotoxicities against colon cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

A new scalemic 8,8a-dihydro caged xanthone (1) was isolated from the leaf extract of Garcinia propinqua. Five other known natural products, the three caged xanthones (2, 5 and 6) and the two neocaged xanthones, (3 and 4) were also isolated as scalemic mixtures. Their structures were characterized by

Activity of mangosteen xanthones and teleocidin a-2 in death receptor expression enhancement and tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis-inducing ligand assays.

Only registered users can translate articles

A screening study using a luciferase assay to identify natural products that enhance death receptor 5 (DR5) expression was carried out, and bioassay-guided fractionation of two organisms, the pericarp of Garcinia mangostana (mangosteen) and actinomycete CKK609 strain, led to the isolation of eight

Influence of New Synthetic Xanthones on the Proliferation and Migration Potential of Cancer Cell Lines in Vitro.

Only registered users can translate articles

Natural plant metabolites and their semisynthetic derivatives have been used for years in cancer therapy. Xanthones are oxygenated heterocyclic compounds produced as secondary metabolites by higher plants, fungi or lichens. Xanthone core may serve as a template in the synthesis of many

Xanthones induce cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis in human colon cancer DLD-1 cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

We investigated the antiproliferative effects of four structurally similar prenylated xanthones, alpha-mangostin, beta-mangostin, gamma-mangostin, and methoxy-beta-mangostin, in human colon cancer DLD-1 cells. These xanthones differ in the number of hydroxyl and methoxy groups. Except for

Beyond the Antagonism: Self-Labeled Xanthone Inhibitors as Modeled "Two-in-One" Drugs in Cancer Therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Self-labeled inhibitors (SLIs) are promising for creating links, ranging from cancer therapy and metastatic pathways to mechanistic elucidation. In this study, a new category of "two-in-one" fluorescent xanthone inhibitors was developed for the systematic evaluation of anticancer activity and the

Anti-tumour effects of xanthone derivatives and the possible mechanisms of action.

Only registered users can translate articles

To explore the potential anti-tumour activities of xanthone derivatives, 26 hydroxylxanthones and benzoxanthones and their structurally modified analogues were examined for potential cytotoxic activities against eight human cancer cell lines. Most of the xanthone derivatives exhibited a higher

Griffipavixanthone, a dimeric xanthone extracted from edible plants, inhibits tumor metastasis and proliferation via downregulation of the RAF pathway in esophageal cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

Metastasis causes a large number of deaths among esophageal cancer patients. The activation of RAF family proteins elevates tumor metastasis and proliferation. In screen targeting the RAF protein, we identified that Griffipavixanthone (GPX), a dimeric xanthone isolated from Garcinia esculenta, is a

Synthesis of xanthone derivatives based on α-mangostin and their biological evaluation for anti-cancer agents.

Only registered users can translate articles

A xanthone-derived natural product, α-mangostin is isolated from various parts of the mangosteen, Garcinia mangostana L. (Clusiaceae), a well-known tropical fruit. Novel xanthone derivatives based on α-mangostin were synthesized and evaluated as anti-cancer agents by cytotoxicity activity screening

The naturally occurring xanthone α-mangostin induces ROS-mediated cytotoxicity in non-small scale lung cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 85% of total deaths globally, and recent studies indicate the increasing risks of NSCLC in China and South Asian countries. Hence, development of new therapeutics against NSCLC has been a major concern. α-Mangostin, a naturally occurring xanthone, found

Identification of xanthones as selective killers of cancer cells overexpressing the ABC transporter MRP1.

Only registered users can translate articles

Multidrug-resistance protein 1 (MRP1) belongs to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family. MRP1 mediates MDR (multidrug resistance) by causing drug efflux either by conjugation to glutathione (GSH) or by co-transport with free GSH (without covalent bonding between the drug and GSH). We

Structure-activity relationships of diverse xanthones against multidrug resistant human tumor cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Thirteen xanthones were isolated naturally from the stem of Securidaca inappendiculata Hassk, and structure-activity relationships (SARs) of these compounds were comparatively predicted for their cytotoxic activity against three human multidrug resistant (MDR) cell lines MCF-7/ADR, SMMC-7721/Taxol,

The effect of gartanin, a naturally occurring xanthone in mangosteen juice, on the mTOR pathway, autophagy, apoptosis, and the growth of human urinary bladder cancer cell lines.

Only registered users can translate articles

Garcinia mangostana, often referred to as mangosteen, is a fruit grown in Southeast Asia and has been used for centuries as a local beverage and natural medicine. Its bioactive compounds, xanthones (i.e., gartanin, α-mangostin, etc), have reported effects on ailments ranging from skin infections and
