Hederagenin from the leaves of ivy (Hedera helix L.) induces apoptosis in human LoVo colon cells through the mitochondrial pathway
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer has become one of the leading cause of cancer morbidity and mortality throughout world. Hederagenin, a derivative of oleanolic acid isolated from the leaves of ivy (Hedera helix L.), has been shown to have potential anti-tumor activity. The study was conducted to evaluate whether hederagenin could induce apoptosis of human colon cancer LoVo cells and explore the pos...
متن کاملLaminarin induces apoptosis of human colon cancer LOVO cells through a mitochondrial pathway.
Many scientific studies have shown that laminarin has anti-tumor effects, but the anti-tumor mechanism was unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of laminarin on the induction of apoptosis in human colon cancer LOVO cells and the molecular mechanism involved. LOVO cells were treated with different concentrations of laminarin at different times. Morphology observations ...
متن کاملβ-asarone Induces LoVo Colon Cancer Cell Apoptosis through a Mitochondrial Pathway
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that the incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) rank third in men and second in women worldwide (Parkin et al., 2005; Jemal et al., 2011). Although the overall incidence and mortality have steadily declined in recent decades, CRC remains one of the leading causes of cancer related deaths.

متن کاملDermatitis from common ivy (Hedera helix L. subsp. helix) in Europe: past, present, and future.
Common ivy (Hedera helix subsp. helix) is a well-known native and ornamental plant in Europe. Reports on contact dermatitis from ivy have regularly appeared since 1899. Recently, it has been suggested that allergic contact dermatitis from the plant may be under-diagnosed, partly due to lack of commercial patch test allergens. The objective of the article is to present the results of aimed patch...
متن کاملNanoparticle biofabrication using English ivy (Hedera helix)
BACKGROUND English ivy (Hedera helix) is well known for its adhesive properties and climbing ability. Essential to its ability to adhere to vertical surfaces is the secretion of a nanocomposite adhesive containing spherical nanoparticles, 60-85 nm in diameter, produced exclusively by root hairs present on adventitious roots. These organic nanoparticles have shown promise in biomedical and cosme...
