Comparison of the cytotoxic effects of enantiopure PPAPs, including nemorosone and clusianone.

چکیده
The synthesis of an unnatural polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol (PPAP), regioisomeric with nemorosone and clusianone, has been accomplished. The separated enantiomers of this new PPAP, along with those of nemorosone and clusianone, have been screened for activity against HeLa (cervix carcinoma), MIA-PaCa-2 (pancreatic carcinoma), and MCF7 (mamma carcinoma) cancer cell lines. All of the isomers examined gave surprisingly similar results in the screens.

Hyperisampsins H–M, Cytotoxic Polycyclic Polyprenylated Acylphloroglucinols from Hypericum sampsonii
Six new polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), named hyperisampsins H-M (1-6), were isolated from the aerial parts of Hypericum sampsonii, together with five known analogs (7-11). The structures of 1-6 were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses, including HRESIMS and NMR. In addition, the absolute configurations of these new compounds were determined by electronic circ...
متن کاملMicroarray analysis of nemorosone-induced cytotoxic effects on pancreatic cancer cells reveals activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR).
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Pancreatic cancer is one of the leading cancer-related causes of death due to high chemo-resistance and fast metastasation. Nemorosone, a polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol, has recently been identified as a promising anticancer agent. Here, we examine its growth-inhibitory effects on pancreatic cancer cells. Based on transcription profiling, a molecular mode of...
متن کاملCytotoxic activity of nemorosone in neuroblastoma cells
Neuroblastoma is the second most common solid tumour during childhood, characterized by rapid disease progression. Most children with metastasized neuroblastoma die despite intensive chemotherapy due to an intrinsic or acquired chemotherapy resistance. Thus, new therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. Here, we demonstrate that the novel compound nemorosone isolated from alcoholic extracts o...
متن کاملPolyisoprenylated benzophenones in cuban propolis; biological activity of nemorosone.
The Copey tree (Clusia rosea) has a large distribution in Cuba and its floral resin is a rich source of polyisoprenylated benzophenones. To determine the presence of these natural products, we carried out a study by HPLC of 21 propolis samples produced by honey bees (Apis mellifera) from different provinces of Cuba. Nemorosone resulted to be the most abundant polyisoprenylated benzophenone and ...

AbstractIn the last step of desolvation method for preparation of albumin nanoparticles, glutaraldehyde (GA) is added to stabilize the newly formed nanoparticles. Due to undesirable effects of GA, the objective of this study was to evaluate alternative methods of crosslinking including ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, adding of glucose and combination of both methods. The nanoparticles were prepar...
