METHODS Catechol moieties are commonly present in dietary natural products that exert cancer chemopreventive activity. While the oxidative conversion of catechols into their corresponding o-quinones is generally considered to contribute to their cancer chemopreventive effects, the mechanism of the
BACKGROUND Malignacies are still a major public concern worldwide and despite the intensive search of new chemotherapeutic agents, treatment still remains a challenging issue. The present study was designed to evaluate the cytotoxicity of 2-acetyl-7-methoxynaphtho[2,3-b]furan-4,9-quinone (AMNQ)

Antioxidant and cytotoxic tocopheryl quinones in normal and cancer cells.

We found previously that [d]-alpha-tocopherol (alpha-T) and [d]-gamma-tocopherol (gamma-T) are lipid antioxidants (thiobarbituric acid test) in model systems containing arachidonic acid (AA), cumene hydroperoxide, and Fe3+ and in smooth muscle cell (SMC) cultures challenged with AA. We now show that

Gamma-tocopheryl quinone stimulates apoptosis in drug-sensitive and multidrug-resistant cancer cells.

Chemotherapy-induced cell death is linked to apoptosis, and there is increasing evidence that multidrug-resistance in cancer cells may be the result of a decrease in the ability of a cell to initiate apoptosis in response to cytotoxic agents. In previous studies, we synthesized two classes of
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widespread environmental pollutants produced in the combustion of organic matter. PAHs are present in automobile exhaust and tobacco smoke, and they have recently been designated as human carcinogens. Current evidence indicates that PAHs are activated
β-lapachone, a major component in an ethanol extract of Tabebuia avellanedae bark, is a promising potential therapeutic drug for various tumors, including lung cancer, the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In the first part of this study, we found that apoptotic cell death induced in
Carbon-11-labeled casimiroin analogues were first designed and synthesized as new potential PET agents for imaging of quinone reductase (QR) 2 and aromatase expression in breast cancer. [(11)C]casimiroin (6-[(11)C]methoxy-9-methyl-[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-h]quinolin-8(9H)-one, [(11)C]11) and its
The nonsteroidal antiestrogen tamoxifen was introduced as a treatment for breast cancer 3 decades ago. It has also been approved as a chemopreventive agent and is prescribed to women at high risk for this disease. However, several studies have shown that use of tamoxifen leads to increased risk of

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
Fluorescent quinone-based BODIPY hybrids were synthesised and characterised by NMR analysis and mass spectrometry. We measured their cytotoxic activity against cancer and normal cell lines, performed mechanistic studies by lipid peroxidation and determination of reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG)
tert-Butylhydroquinone (BHQ), an antioxidant used as a food additive, exhibits an anticancer effect at low doses, but is carcinogenic in rodents at high doses. BHQ is metabolized into cytotoxic tert-butylquinone (TBQ), which is further converted to 6-tert-butyl-2,3-epoxy-4-hydroxy-5-cyclohexen-1-one
Bioreductive antitumor quinones require reductive metabolism to produce their cytotoxic effects. A series of these compounds was screened for relative rates of reduction by the two-electron reductase, NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (DTD). The antitumor quinones streptonigrin (SN),
Antiestrogens have found widespread use in the treatment of breast cancer (reviewed in ref. 1). There is also interest in the use of tamoxifen as a preventive agent for breast cancer. However, the mechanism for the antitumor effects of antiestrogens is relatively unknown. For the most part it is
BACKGROUND Tocotrienols, a subgroup of the vitamin E family, have demonstrated antioxidant and anticancer properties. Differential growth responses among different types of tocotrienols have been observed in breast cancer cells; however, specific bioactivity of each individual tocotrienol remains to

The enzymology of doxorubicin quinone reduction in tumour tissue.

We have reported previously that enzymes present in the Sp 107 rat mammary carcinoma catalyse doxorubicin quinone reduction (QR) to 7-deoxyaglycone metabolites in vivo [Willmott and Cummings, Biochem Pharmacol 36: 521-526, 1987]. In order to provide insights into the role of QR in the antitumour
