embelin and Disease Exacerbation

embelin has been researched along with Disease Exacerbation in 2 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
"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 has been used to treat fever, inflammatory diseases, and a variety of gastrointestinal ailments for thousands of years."1.37Embelin ameliorates dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis in mice. ( Honnegowda, S; Kulkarni, NM; Kumar G, K, 2011)
