Mechanistic insight into a novel synthetic cantharidin analogue in a leukaemia model.
Cantharidin isolated from Mylabris caraganae and other insects is used traditionally as an anti-cancer drug especially on hepatoma and leukaemia. Previously, we demonstrated that the novel synthetic cantharidin analogue CAN 032 possessed apoptotic activity on two human hepatoma cell lines Hep3B hepatocellular carcinoma and SK-Hep-1 liver adenocarcinoma. However, its underlying mechanistic actio...
متن کاملMechanistic insight into Type I restriction endonucleases.
Restriction and modification are two opposing activities that are used to protect bacteria from cellular invasion by DNA (e.g. bacteriophage infection). Restriction activity involves cleavage of the DNA; while modification activity is the mechanism used to "mark" host DNA and involves DNA methylation. The study of Type I restriction enzymes has often been seen as an esoteric exercise and this ...
متن کاملMechanistic insight into proton-coupled mixed valency.
Stabilisation of the mixed-valence state in [Mo2(TiPB)3(HDOP)]2(+) (HTiPB = 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoic acid, H2DOP = 3,6-dihydroxypyridazine) by electron transfer (ET) is related to the proton coordinate of the bridging ligands. Spectroelectrochemical studies suggest that ET is slower than 10(9) s(-1). The mechanism has been probed using DFT calculations, which show that proton transfer induces ...
متن کاملA Semiotic Insight into Model Mapping
Model mapping faces many challenging tasks and contemporary work seems to focus on computational issues. As a result it seems to lack an overarching theoretical framework whereby all aspects of model mapping can be investigated systematically. We maintain that the principles of semiotics may well provide theoretical foundations for developing such a framework. In this chapter we report our prel...
متن کاملMechanistic insight into the norepinephrine-induced fibrosis in systemic sclerosis
Raynaud's phenomenon is frequently observed in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients, and cold- or stress-induced norepinephrine (NE) has been speculated to be associated with vasoconstriction. Objective was to elucidate the role of NE in fibrosis in SSc. IL-6 is a potent stimulator of collagen production in fibroblasts. NE enhanced IL-6 production and proliferation more significantly in SSc fibrob...
