Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of selected indigenous medicinal plants from the western Himalayas for cytotoxicity and as potential cancer chemopreventive agents

TL;DR: Positive responses observed in these bioassays illustrate the high potential of local medicinal plants and may be suggested that the plants under investigation contain potential chemopreventive compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel cytotoxic acylated oligorhamnosides from Mezzettia leptopoda.

TL;DR: Activity-guided fractionation of a stem extract of Mezzettia leptopoda using human oral epidermoid carcinoma (KB) cells led to the isolation of seven highly acylated oligorhamnosides, four of which are novel and found to be weakly cytotoxic toward KB and/or human colon and lung cancer cell lines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Triterpenoids of the roots of Lavandula stoechas ssp. stoechas.

TL;DR: In this article, the triterpenes of Lavandula stoechas were determined by spectroscopic analyses and the chloroform extract and isolated compounds were evaluated for their growth inhibitory activity against several mammalian cell lines.
Journal Article

Characterization of tropane alkaloid aromatic esters that reverse the multidrug-resistance phenotype.

TL;DR: Several new tropane alkaloid aromatic esters obtained by means of bioassay-directed fractionation were found to restore vinblastine sensitivity with cultured multidrug-resistant KB-VI cells, and inhibition was observed with IC50 values categorized as low, medium, and high.
Journal Article

Apoptotic anticancer effect of alvaradoin E isolated from Alvaradoa haitiensis.

TL;DR: Data suggest alvaradoin E is an effective anticancer agent that induces apoptosis, and additional studies to establish clinical utility should be of interest.
