Combined Use of Zoledronic Acid Augments Ursolic Acid-Induced Apoptosis in Human Osteosarcoma Cells through Enhanced Oxidative Stress and Autophagy.
Ursolic acid (UA), a naturally occurring pentacyclic triterpene acid found in many medicinal herbs and edible plants, triggers apoptosis in several tumor cell lines but not in human bone cancer cells. Most recently, we have demonstrated that UA exposure reduces the viability of human osteosarcoma MG-63 cells through enhanced oxidative stress and apoptosis. Interestingly, an inhibitor of osteocl...
متن کاملUrsolic acid suppresses interleukin-17 (IL-17) production by selectively antagonizing the function of RORgamma t protein.
Th17 cells have recently emerged as a major player in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases via the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-17, IL-17F, and IL-22. The differentiation of Th17 cells and the associated cytokine production is directly controlled by RORγt. Here we show that ursolic acid (UA), a small molecule present in herbal medicine, selectively and effectively inhibits the fu...
متن کاملA new synthetic ursolic acid derivative IUA with anti-tumor efficacy against osteosarcoma cells via inhibition of JNK signaling pathway.
BACKGROUND Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents and is characterized by frequent metastasis and resistance to chemotherapy. Because osteosarcoma cells are not highly susceptible to current chemotherapy drugs, new alternative strategies for the treatment of osteosarcoma are needed. This study was undertaken to investigate the inhibitory effects...
متن کاملDetermination of Ursolic Acid and Ursolic Acid Lactone in the Leaves of Eucalyptus tereticornis by HPLC
Um método simples, isocrático, de HPLC foi desenvolvido para quantificação simultânea de dois triterpenos bioativos, ácido ursólico e lactona do ácido ursólico em folhas de E. tereticornis. As amostras foram analisadas em coluna RP-18 (4,6 × 250 mm, 5 μm) com metanol e água acidificada a pH 3,5 com TFA (88:12) a 210 nm. O método foi validado e aplicado para a quantificação simultânea dos triter...
متن کاملPharmacology of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid.
Oleanolic acid and ursolic acid are triterpenoid compounds that exist widely in food, medicinal herbs and other plants. This review summarizes the pharmacological studies on these two triterpenoids. Both oleanolic acid and ursolic acid are effective in protecting against chemically induced liver injury in laboratory animals. Oleanolic acid has been marketed in China as an oral drug for human li...
