Norcantharidin is the demethylated analog of cantharidin isolated from blister beetles (Mylabris phalerata Pall.). In this study, we evaluated whether norcantharidin exhibits anticancer effects against the human non-small cell lung cancer cell lines A549 (epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-negative) and PC9 (EGFR mutation-positive). ...

Cantharidin (CTD) is a natural toxin in beetles of the Mylabris genus (blister beetle), which has been revealed to induce cell death in various types of human cancer cells. However, to the best of our knowledge, no previous studies have investigated the effect of CTD on the expression of genes and their associated signaling pathways in human bladder carcinoma cells. In the present study, CTD-in...

Blister beetles are an important object of study in the field agriculture and health. Despite being known to be for host animal, gut bacteria blister have not been investigated deeply. This aimed provide first initial description bacterial community Mylabris pustulata as one species beetles, based on a culture-independent technique. Adult same colony were sampled confirmed Thunberg. The content...
