Tentative characterization of novel phenolic compounds in extra virgin olive oils by rapid-resolution liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry

TL;DR: Rapid-resolution liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-TOF-MS and ESI-IT-MS) has been applied to separate and characterize the phenolic compounds in five Spanish extra virgin olive oils.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenolic secoiridoids in extra virgin olive oil impede fibrogenic and oncogenic epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition: extra virgin olive oil as a source of novel antiaging phytochemicals

TL;DR: While awaiting a better mechanistic understanding of how EVOO phenolics molecularly shut down the EMT differentiation process, it seems reasonable to suggest that nontoxic Oleaceae secoiridoids certainly merit to be considered for aging studies and for ulterior design of more pharmacologically active second-generation anti-EMT molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Response of brain metastasis from lung cancer patients to an oral nutraceutical product containing silibinin

TL;DR: Evidence is presented of how the use of the silibinin-based nutraceutical Legasil® resulted in significant clinical and radiological improvement of BM from NSCLC patients with poor performance status that progressed after whole brain radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oncobiguanides: Paracelsus' law and nonconventional routes for administering diabetobiguanides for cancer treatment.

TL;DR: The oncobiguanides, as they are called here, could be viewed as a mechanistically different type of anti-cancer drugs employed at doses notably higher than those used chronically when functioning as diabetobigsuanides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross-suppression of EGFR ligands amphiregulin and epiregulin and de-repression of FGFR3 signalling contribute to cetuximab resistance in wild-type KRAS tumour cells

TL;DR: As de-repression of FGFR3 activity rapidly replaces the loss of EGFR-ligand signalling in terms of cell proliferation and survival, combinations of Ctx andFGFR3-targeted drugs may be a valuable strategy to enhance the efficacy of single Ctx while preventing or delaying acquired resistance to Ctx.
