The antitumor effect of peroral treatment with coumarin and its main metabolite in humans 7-hydroxycoumarin (7-OHC) against Sarcoma 180 in mice was studied. Both agents inhibited tumor growth and increased survival time of tumor-bearing animals. The antitumor effect was better when coumarins were
Coumarin and its 4-OH and 7-OH derivatives, as well as o-, m- and p-coumaric acid were tested against P-815 and P-388 tumor cells in vitro. In addition, the compounds were investigated in various in vitro immunological test systems and genuine coumarin was tested furthermore against the Sarcoma-180
A newly designed organoselenium compound, methyl substituted umbelliferone selenocyanate (MUS), was synthesized as a primary hit against the myelotoxic activity of carboplatin. MUS was administered at 6 mg/kg b.wt, p.o. in concomitant and pretreatment schedules with carboplatin (12 mg/kg b.wt, i.p.
Oral administration of 8-methoxypsoralen followed by exposure to longwave ultraviolet light (primarily ultraviolet A, 320-400 nm) is used in the treatment of vitiligo and psoriasis. 8-Methoxypsoralen also occurs naturally in a variety of vegetables. Toxicology and carcinogenesis studies of
BACKGROUND
Approximately 30% to 40% of all patients with osteosarcomas ultimately experience recurrence. The study investigated the hypothesis that the resistance of osteosarcoma to chemotherapy may be related to the expression of a pregnane xenobiotic receptor (PXR) variant protein and its role as
Cereus jamacaru D.C. (mandacaru) is a cactus used as food and in the traditional medicine. In the present study, hydroalcoholic extract of C. jamacaru was evaluated for its chemical composition, antioxidant activity, cytotoxic and anti-cytotoxic effects in human lymphocytes and sarcoma 180 cells in
