furazolidone and Cancer of Liver

furazolidone has been researched along with Cancer of Liver in 2 studies

Furazolidone: A nitrofuran derivative with antiprotozoal and antibacterial activity. Furazolidone acts by gradual inhibition of monoamine oxidase. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p514)
furazolidone : A member of the class of oxazolidines that is 1,3-oxazolidin-2-one in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen is replaced by an N-{[(5-nitro-2-furyl)methylene]amino} group. It has antibacterial and antiprotozoal properties, and is used in the treatment of giardiasis and cholera.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Furazolidone (FZD), a synthetic nitrofuran with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial actions, is known to induce genotoxicity and potential carcinogenicity in several types of cells, but little is known about its p38 mitogen-activation protein kinase (p38 MAPK) and c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) pathways in human hepatoblastoma cell line (HepG2)."7.79Opposite effects of JNK and p38 MAPK signaling pathways on furazolidone-stimulated S phase cell cycle arrest of human hepatoblastoma cell line. ( Jin, X; Sun, Y; Tang, S; Xiao, X; Zhang, C; Zhao, W, 2013)
