Exploring quercetin and luteolin derivatives as antiangiogenic agents.
The formation of new blood vessels from the pre-existing vasculature (angiogenesis) is a crucial stage in cancer progression and, indeed, angiogenesis inhibitors are now used as anticancer agents, clinically. Here we have explored the potential of flavonoid derivatives as antiangiogenic agents. Specifically, we have synthesised methoxy and 4-thio derivatives of the natural flavones quercetin an...
متن کاملQuercetin derivatives as novel antihypertensive agents: Synthesis and physiological characterization.
The antihypertensive flavonol quercetin (Q1) is endowed with a cardioprotective effect against myocardial ischemic damage. Q1 inhibits angiotensin converting enzyme activity, improves vascular relaxation, and decreases oxidative stress and gene expression. However, the clinical application of this flavonol is limited by its poor bioavailability and low stability in aqueous medium. In the aim to...
متن کاملDiscovery of novel taspine derivatives as antiangiogenic agents.
VEGFR-2 plays a critical role in vasculogenesis and inhibitors of VEGFR-2 could be used in the treatment of cancer. Taspine was one of the active ingredients screened by using an endothelial cell membrane chromatography and showed inhibition against VEGFR-2. In our research, we explored how the lactone ring and biphenyl scaffold in taspine influence its potent in vitro anticancer and antiangiog...
متن کاملPPARα Ligands as Antitumorigenic and Antiangiogenic Agents
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) belong to the nuclear receptor family of ligand-activated transcription factors. This subfamily is composed of three members-PPARalpha, PPARdelta, and PPARgamma-that differ in their cell and tissue distribution as well as in their target genes. PPARalpha is abundantly expressed in liver, brown adipose tissue, kidney, intestine, heart, and skel...
متن کاملNovel Levofloxacin Derivatives as Potent Antibacterial Agents
In this report, a new series of fluoroquinolone agents which was derived from levofloxacin was synthesized and evaluated against Gram-positive (Bacillus subtillis, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Micrococcus luteus) and Gram-negative (Esherichio coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Serratia marcescens) organisms. The results showed that some of the synth...
