Onion, a Potent Inhibitor of Xantine Oxidase
Onion (Allium Cepa) contains high levels of flavonoids. Although there are many studies indicating the inhibitory effects of flavonoids on xanthine oxidase, there is no report on the effect of onion on this enzyme. Therefore, in the present study, the inhibitory effects of onion on xanthine oxidase are investigated. Fresh filtered juice of onion was prepared and its inhibitory effect on guine...

متن کاملMycophenolic acid is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis.
Angiogenesis is necessary for the vascularization of a tumor, providing essential nourishment for tumor growth, and the progression and metastasis of cancer cells.1 Although tremendous efforts and resources have been dedicated to discovering angiogenesis inhibitors, very few candidates have been approved by FDA for therapeutic applications. Currently, Avastin (bevacizumab), a humanized monoclon...
متن کاملHalofuginone: a potent inhibitor of critical steps in angiogenesis progression.
We have previously demonstrated that halofuginone, a low molecular weight quinazolinone alkaloid, is a potent inhibitor of collagen alpha1(I) and matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) gene expression. Halofuginone also effectively suppresses tumor progression and metastasis in mice. These results together with the well-documented role of extracellular matrix (ECM) components and matrix degrading e...
متن کاملPECAM-1 functions as a specific and potent inhibitor of mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis.
Programmed cell death, or apoptosis, is a tightly regulated, naturally occurring process by which damaged or unwanted cells are removed. Dysregulated apoptosis has been implicated in a variety of pathophysiological conditions, including degenerative diseases, tissue remodeling, and tumorigenesis. The decision to live or die results from integration of numerous environmental signals transmitted ...
