Treatment

ExcerptReferenceRelevance
"Treatment with glaucarubinone and gemcitabine reduced proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in vivo more than treatment with either glaucarubinone or gemcitabine alone."( Glaucarubinone and gemcitabine synergistically reduce pancreatic cancer growth via down-regulation of P21-activated kinases.

Dosage Studied

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Complete dose-response curves were generated and IC(50) values were calculated for these active extracts against four cell lines HCT-8, MDA-MB-435, SF-295 and HL-60 (leukemia), and their direct cytotoxic effects were determined."( Cytotoxic activity of Brazilian Cerrado plants used in traditional medicine against cancer cell lines.

Roles (4)

RoleDescription
geroprotectorAny compound that supports healthy aging, slows the biological aging process, or extends lifespan.
plant metaboliteAny eukaryotic metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in plants, the kingdom that include flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms.
antineoplastic agentA substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
antimalarialA drug used in the treatment of malaria. Antimalarials are usually classified on the basis of their action against Plasmodia at different stages in their life cycle in the human.

Drug Classes (6)

ClassDescription
carboxylic esterAn ester of a carboxylic acid, R(1)C(=O)OR(2), where R(1) = H or organyl and R(2) = organyl.
quassinoidMembers of the class of triterpenoid, mostly isolated as bitter principles of the Simaroubaceae family. They are chemically regarded as degraded triterpenes and can be categorized into groups with C18, C19, C20, C22 and C25 skeletons.
organic heteropentacyclic compound
tetrolA polyol that contains 4 hydroxy groups.
secondary alpha-hydroxy ketoneAn alpha-hydroxy ketone in which the carbonyl group and the hydroxy group are linked by a carbon bearing one hydrogen and one organyl group. Secondary alpha-hydroxy ketones are also known as acyloins, and are formally derived from reductive coupling of two carboxylic acid groups.
tertiary alpha-hydroxy ketoneAn alpha-hydroxy ketone in which the carbonyl group and the hydroxy group are linked by a carbon bearing two organyl groups.
