embelin and Cancer of Pancreas

embelin has been researched along with Cancer of Pancreas in 6 studies

embelin: from Embelia fruit (Myrsinaceae)
embelin : A member of the class of dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinones that is 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone which is substituted by an undecyl group at position 3. Isolated from Lysimachia punctata and Embelia ribes, it exhibits antimicrobial, antineoplastic and inhibitory activity towards hepatitis C protease.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Embelin inhibited pancreatic cancer growth in Kras(G12D) mice by modulating tumor immune microenvironment where CTL, NKT, γδT, NK, and IFNγ (Th1 type) cells were up-regulated, and Th17, PMN-MDSC, IL-6 and IL-8 (Th2 type) immune cells were inhibited."1.40Embelin suppresses pancreatic cancer growth by modulating tumor immune microenvironment. ( Jackman, CP; Marsh, JL; Shankar, S; Srivastava, RK; Tang, SN, 2014)
"Embelin-treated mice showed significant inhibition in tumor growth which was associated with reduced expression of markers of cell proliferation (Ki67, PCNA and Bcl-2) and cell cycle (cyclin D1, CDK2, and CDK6), and induction of apoptosis (activation of caspase-3 and cleavage of PARP, and increased expression of Bax)."1.40Embelin suppresses growth of human pancreatic cancer xenografts, and pancreatic cancer cells isolated from KrasG12D mice by inhibiting Akt and Sonic hedgehog pathways. ( Huang, M; Jackman, CP; Marsh, JL; Shankar, S; Srivastava, RK; Tang, SN; Upadhyay, G, 2014)
"Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive malignancy and unresponsive to conventional chemotherapies."1.40Embelin inhibits pancreatic cancer progression by directly inducing cancer cell apoptosis and indirectly restricting IL-6 associated inflammatory and immune suppressive cells. ( Cheng, X; Da, Y; Dai, Y; Fu, S; Huang, B; Peng, M; Qiao, L; Wang, D; Wu, X; Xue, Z; Yang, Q; Yao, Z; Zhang, D; Zhang, L; Zhang, Q; Zhang, R, 2014)
"Embelin is a benzoquinone phytochemical isolated from the Japanese herb Ardisiae Japonicae and has been shown to induce apoptosis in cancer cells."1.39Ellagic acid and embelin affect key cellular components of pancreatic adenocarcinoma, cancer, and stellate cells. ( Edderkaoui, M; Eibl, G; Go, VL; Hui, H; Li, G; Lu, QY; Lu, X; Lugea, A; Moro, A; Pandol, SJ, 2013)
"We previously reported that a number of pancreatic cancer cell lines show resistance to TRAIL-induced apoptosis via overexpression of XIAP and FLIP."1.34Effect of the XIAP inhibitor Embelin on TRAIL-induced apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells. ( Doi, R; Ito, D; Kami, K; Kawaguchi, Y; Kida, A; Mori, T; Nagai, K; Toyoda, E; Uemoto, S, 2007)
