Antioxidant activity of extract from Polygonum cuspidatum.
Numerous diseases are induced by free radicals via lipid peroxidation, protein peroxidation and DNA damage. It has been known that a variety of plant extracts have antioxidant activities to scavenge free radicals. Whether Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. et Zuce has antioxidant activity is unknown. In this study, dried roots of Polygonum cuspidatum were extracted by ethanol and the extract was lyophi...
متن کاملSynthesis and Study of Antitumor Activity of Substituted Imidazolecarboxamides
In view of potential biological activities of small molecule polyamides, we synthesized some novel N-(2-aminoethyl)-1-benzyl-2- (alkylthio)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamide (7a,b), and N-(2-(1-benzyl-2-(alkylthio) -1H-imidazole- 5-carboxamido) ethyl)-1-benzyl-2- (alkylthio)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamides (8a,b) as antitumor agents. The antitumor activity of compounds 7a,b and 8a,b was studied at c...
متن کاملAntitumor activity of alkaloids derived from Amaryllidaceae species.
The aim of the present study was to investigate the anticancer properties of five alkaloids isolated from Amaryllidaceae, including the inhibitory effect on P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and the apoptosis-inducing capacity. The tested alkaloids were evaluated for their multidrug resistance (MDR)-reversing activity on human MDR1-gene-transfected L5178 mouse lymphoma cells, using the rhodamine-123 (Rh-12...
متن کاملCharacterization and Potential Antitumor Activity of Polysaccharide from Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis
Substances with valuable antitumor properties have been identified in many marine algae, including an edible polysaccharide from the marine alga Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis (PGL). We previously reported transcriptome profiling data showing that PGL induced transcriptional alterations generate anti-lung cancer activity. To identify how PGL is detrimental to tumors, we purified PGL to characteri...
متن کاملSynthesis and evaluation of platinum complexes with potential antitumor activity
A novel series of platinum (II) complexes was synthesized and the complexes were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicity against four human cancer cells lines. Five platinum complexes showed activity against at least one tumor cell line. Complexes 3 and 6 were promising, being active, at micromolar concentrations, against all the assayed tumor cell lines. Compound 3 was selected for further s...
