Cytotoxic Activity of Laserpitium latifolium L. Extract and Its Daucane and Phenylpropanoid Constituents
In the search for novel cytotoxic agents, sesquiterpenoids and phenylpropanoids have provided interesting lead compounds. From the chloroform extract of the underground parts of Laserpitium latifolium, the daucane sesquiterpenoids laserpitin and acetyldesoxodehydrolaserpitin, and the phenylpropanoids laserin and latifolon were isolated as the major compounds. Acetyldesoxodehydrolaserpitin is id...
متن کاملCyclopentenone prostaglandins inhibit cytokine-induced nf-kappab activation and chemokine production by human mesangial cells.
In the kidney an uncontrolled inflammatory response to an acute insult may lead to chronic inflammation, permanent tissue damage, and progressive renal insufficiency. Resolution of acute inflammation likely is dependent on endogenous regulatory mechanisms activated in parallel with mediators of renal inflammation. These mechanisms are postulated to attenuate the renal expression of proinflammat...
متن کاملCytokine and chemokine production by human oral and vaginal epithelial cells in response to Candida albicans.
Oropharyngeal and vaginal candidiases are the most common forms of mucosal fungal infections and are primarily caused by Candida albicans, a dimorphic fungal commensal organism of the gastrointestinal and lower female reproductive tracts. Clinical and experimental observations suggest that local immunity is important in host defense against candidiasis. Accordingly, cytokines and chemokines are...
متن کاملcell viability and cytokine production of human alveolar epithelial cells following exposure to sulphur dioxide
exposure to air pollutants is significantly associated with health risks ranging from bronchial reactivity to morbidity and mortality. however, the precise mechanisms are not always fully understood. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sulphur dioxide (so2) on cell viability and cytokine production of a549-human pulmonary epithelial cells. test atmospheres of so2 were genera...
متن کاملHuman Rhinovirus Induced Cytokine/Chemokine Responses in Human Airway Epithelial and Immune Cells
Infections with human rhinovirus (HRV) are commonly associated with acute upper and lower respiratory tract disease and asthma exacerbations. The role that HRVs play in these diseases suggests it is important to understand host-specific or virus-specific factors that contribute to pathogenesis. Since species A HRVs are often associated with more serious HRV disease than species B HRVs, differen...
