Cytotoxic effects of selective species of Caryophyllaceae in Iran
Cancer is a major cause of death worldwide and causes serious problems in human life. It is developed by uncontrolled growth of a cell or a group of cells. There are many difficulties in treatment of cancer and many researchers are involved in investigating for effective drugs to treat the disease. Caryophyllaceae is a large family of about 86 genera and 2200 herbaceous or subshrub species. The...
متن کاملIdentification of cytotoxic, T-cell-selective 1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-diones.
A family of 1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-diones (BZDs) has been synthesized and evaluated against transformed B- and T-cells for lymphotoxic members. A large aromatic group on the C3 position is critical for cytotoxicity. When the C3 moiety contains an electron-rich heterocycle, the resulting BZDs have sub-micromolar potency and are selective for T-cells. Cell death is consistent with apoptosis and d...
متن کاملCytotoxic Compounds from Aloe megalacantha.
Phytochemical investigation of the ethyl acetate extract of the roots of Aloe megalacantha led to the isolation of four new natural products-1,8-dimethoxynepodinol (1), aloesaponarin III (2), 10-O-methylchrysalodin (3) and methyl-26-O-feruloyl-oxyhexacosanate (4)-along with ten known compounds. All purified metabolites were characterized by NMR, mass spectrometric analyses and comparison with l...
