Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is a bioactive component derived from honeybee hive propolis. CAPE has been shown to have antimitogenic, anticarcinogenic, and other beneficial medicinal properties. Many of its effects have been shown to be mediated through its inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathways. We took a systematic approach to uncover the effects of CAPE from hours to days on the signa...

Introduction: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of antioxidative and antiapoptotic effects and underlying molecular mechanisms of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) on human lung epithelial cells exposed to cigarette smoke (CS). Materials and Methods: Human alveolar epithelial A549 cells were exposed to CS and treated with various concentrations of CAPE for 24 h, and ...

Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), derived from various plant sources, has been shown to ameliorate ischemia/reperfusion injury in vivo, and this has been attributed to its ability to reduce oxidative stress. Here we investigated the cytoprotection of CAPE against menadione-induced oxidative stress in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) to evaluate potential gene expression involve...

OBJECTIVES The main purpose of this study was to culturally adapt the Consensus Auditory-Perceptual Evaluation of Voice (CAPE-V) to Turkish and to evaluate its internal consistency, validity, and reliability. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Turkish version of CAPE-V was developed, and with the use of a prospective case-control design, the voice recordings of 130 participants were collected accordin...

The present study was conducted to investigate whether caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), an active component of propolis extract, has a protective effect on amphotericin B induced nephrotoxicity in rat models. Male Wistar-Albino rats were randomly divided into four groups: (I) control group (n = 10), (II) CAPE group (n = 9) which received 10 μmol/kg CAPE intraperitoneally (i.p.), (III) ampho...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study were to investigate a role of oxidative stress and the therapeutic efficacy of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) in the pathogenesis of neurotoxicity induced by isoniazid and etambutol in a rat model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into eight experimental groups: control, INH, ETM, INH+ETM, INH+CAPE, ETM+CAPE, INH+ETM+CAP...

OBJECTIVE Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), a natural flavonoid, specifically blocks activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB). We examined the effects of oral CAPE supplementation on atherogenesis in apolipoprotein E-deficient (apoE-/-) mice. METHODS AND RESULTS Ten-week-old male apoE-/- mice were supplemented orally with CAPE (30 mg/kg body weight) for 12 weeks. At the end of admin...

Two novel boron compounds containing caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) derivatives have been prepared and characterized fully. These new compounds and CAPE have been investigated for potential antioxidant and antimicrobial properties and their ability to inhibit 5-lipoxygenase and whether chelation to boron improves their biological activity. Sodium salt 4 was generally more active than ammon...

OBJECTIVE Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), which is derived from the propolis of honeybee hives, has been demonstrated to possess multiple pharmacological activities. In the present study, CAPE (6-25 microM) specifically inhibited collagen-induced platelet aggregation and the ATP release reaction in platelet suspensions. METHODS Platelet aggregation, flow cytometric analysis, immunoblotti...

deployment of CAPE (computer-aided parts estimating system), a highly advanced knowledge-based system designed to generate, evaluate, and cost automotive part manufacturing plans. cape is engineered on an innovative, extensible, declarative processplanning and estimating knowledge representation language, which underpins the cape kernel architecture. Many manufacturing processes have been model...
