Journal ArticleDOI

New Colorimetric Cytotoxicity Assay for Anticancer-Drug Screening

TL;DR: The SRB assay provides a sensitive measure of drug-induced cytotoxicity, is useful in quantitating clonogenicity, and is well suited to high-volume, automated drug screening.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Potent Novel Anti-HIV Protein from the Cultured Cyanobacterium Scytonema varium†

TL;DR: A new anti-HIV protein, scytovirin, was isolated from aqueous extracts of the cultured cyanobacterium Scytonema varium and displayed potent anticytopathic activity against laboratory strains and primary isolates of HIV-1 with EC50 values ranging from 0.3 to 22 nM.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel anti-HIV macrocyclic peptide from Palicourea condensata.

TL;DR: Palicourein inhibits the in vitro cytopathic effects of HIV-1RF infection of CEM-SS cells with an EC50 value of 0.1 microM and an IC50value of 1.5 microM.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Novel Fold of Scytovirin Reveals a New Twist For Antiviral Entry Inhibitors

TL;DR: Scytovirin, originally isolated from the cyanobacterium Scytonema varium, holds potential as an HIV entry inhibitor for both therapeutic and prophylactic anti-HIV applications and high-resolution structural studies reported are an important initial step in unlocking the therapeutic potential of scytovirin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparative separation of naphthyltetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids from Ancistrocladus korupensis by centrifugal partition chromatography

TL;DR: A refined, three-step process (solvent-solvent partitioning, centrifugal partition chromatography and HPLC) has been developed and applied to the scaled-up production of michellamine B for preclinical drug development.
