Journal ArticleDOI
2-Methoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (MNQ) induces apoptosis of A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells via oxidation-triggered JNK and p38 MAPK signaling pathways
TL;DR: This study is the first to provide an insight into the molecular mechanism ofMNQ-induced cytotoxicity of a lung cancer cell, which demonstrates the potential of MNQ as a potential chemotherapeutic drug for lung cancer treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanistic Perspectives of Maslinic Acid in Targeting Inflammation
Wei Hsum Yap,Yang Mooi Lim +1 more
TL;DR: This review focuses on the mechanistic action of maslinic acid in regulating the inflammation pathways through modulation of the arachidonic acid metabolism including the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB)/COX-2 expression, upstream protein kinase signaling, and phospholipase A2 enzyme activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural Xanthones and Skin Inflammatory Diseases: Multitargeting Mechanisms of Action and Potential Application.
TL;DR: Xanthones, a class of natural compounds that possess a wide range of biological activities including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, cytotoxic, and chemotherapeutic effects, are potential lead compounds to be further developed into pharmaceutical agents for the treatment of skin inflammatory diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytotoxic effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles on cyanobacterium Spirulina (Arthrospira) platensis.
TL;DR: The results showed that S. platensis triggered substantial cytotoxicity and caused cell death, which could be potentially used as a bioindicator for testing toxicity of ZnO NPs in aquatic environment.
Antitumor promoting and actioxidant activities of anthraquinones isolated from the cell suspension culture of Morinda elliptica
Jasril,Md. Nordin Lajis,Yang Mooi Lim,Mohd Azmuddin Abdullah,Mohd Aspollah Sukari,Abdul Manaf Ali +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, six anthraquinones (nordamnacanthal, alizarin-1-methyl ether, rubiadin, soranjidiol, lucidin-ωmethyl ether and morindone) isolated from the cell suspension culture of Morinda elliptica were assayed for antitumor promoting and antioxidant activities.
