Juglone exerts antitumor effect in ovarian cancer cells
Objective(s): Juglone is isolated from many species of the Juglandaceae family and used as an anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-tumor therapeutic. Here, we evaluated juglone-induced antitumor effect in ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells. Materials and Methods: MTT assay was performed to examine juglone anti-proliferative effect. Cell cycle and apoptosis were studied using flow cytometry in juglone-t...
متن کاملStudies on the antitumor effect of cucurbitacins.
The carcinostatic activity of elatericin A, elatericin B, elaterin, elaterin methylether, dihydroelatericin A, and tetrahydroelatericin A, all cucurbitacins of a triterpene structure, and of trans-4-hydroxy-4-methylpent-~-enoic acid, the isolated side chain of the cucurbitacin molecule, was studied. Three cucurbitacins, elatericin A, elatericin B, and elaterin produced a moderate inhibition of ...
متن کاملThe Eltrombopag antitumor effect on hepatocellular carcinoma
Currently, sorafenib is the only available chemotherapeutic agent for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but it cannot be used in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC) or thrombocytopenia. In these cases, sorafenib is likely effective if given in combination with treatments that increase the number of platelets, such as thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor agonists. Increasing the platelet count vi...
متن کاملAnticachectic and Antitumor Effect of Eicosapentaenoic Acid
The effect of the polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and 7-linolenic acid (GLA) on host body weight loss and tumor growth has been investigated in mice bearing a cachexia-inducing colon adenocarcinoma, the MAC16. EPA effectively inhibited both host weight loss and tumor growth rate in a dose-related manner with optimal effects being observed at a dose level of 1.25 to 2.5 g...
متن کاملAntitumor effect of Bothrops jararaca venom.
Many experimental studies have been carried out using snake venoms for the treatment of animal tumors, with controversial results. While some authors have reported an antitumor effect of treatment with specific snake venom fractions, others have reported no effects after this treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Bothrops jararaca venom (BjV) on Ehrlich ascites tumor (E...
