Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester Prevents Mesengial Cell Apoptosis by Suppressing p38MAPK Signal

Caffeic acid phenethyl ester prevents neonatal hypoxic-ischaemic brain injury.

Neonatal hypoxic-ischaemic (HI) brain injury resulting in encephalopathy is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality with no effective treatment. Here we show that caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), an active component of propolis, administered either before or after an HI insult, significantly prevents HI-induced neonatal rat brain damage in the cortex, hippocampus and thalamus. In additio...

Caffeic acid 3,4-dihydroxy-phenethyl ester induces cancer cell senescence by suppressing twist expression.

Compared with traditional cytotoxic cancer therapy, therapy-induced cancer cell senescence attracts much interest because it is similarly effective, has fewer side effects, and is more efficiently cleared by immune cells. In this study, we demonstrate that unlike caffeic acid phenethyl ester, caffeic acid 3,4-dihydroxy-phenethyl ester (CADPE), which is isolated from the medicinal plants Sarcand...

Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester and Therapeutic Potentials

Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is a bioactive compound of propolis extract. The literature search elaborates that CAPE possesses antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cytotoxic properties. The principal objective of this review article is to sum up and critically assess the existing data about therapeutic effects of CAPE in different disorders. The findings elaborate that CAPE...

Regulation of Apoptosis, Invasion and Angiogenesis of Tumor Cells by Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester

Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester (CAPE) Prevents Development of STZ-ICV Induced dementia in Rats

BACKGROUND Chronic oxidative stress and inflammation severely affect the normal physiology of neurons and lead to neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Polyphenols proved a boon in the prevention of dementia due to their antioxidant and neuroprotective potential. Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is a natural polyphenolic compound attributed with antioxidant, immunomod...
