methoxsalen and Lung Neoplasms

methoxsalen has been researched along with Lung Neoplasms in 6 studies

Methoxsalen: A naturally occurring furocoumarin compound found in several species of plants, including Psoralea corylifolia. It is a photoactive substance that forms DNA ADDUCTS in the presence of ultraviolet A irradiation.
methoxsalen : A member of the class of psoralens that is 7H-furo[3,2-g]chromen-7-one in which the 9 position is substituted by a methoxy group. It is a constituent of the fruits of Ammi majus. Like other psoralens, trioxsalen causes photosensitization of the skin. It is administered topically or orally in conjunction with UV-A for phototherapy treatment of vitiligo and severe psoriasis.

Lung Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the LUNG.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Despite progress in diagnostics and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), its prognosis remains poor."1.43The anti-metastatic effect of 8-MOP on hepatocellular carcinoma is potentiated by the down-regulation of bHLH transcription factor DEC1. ( Liu, J; Luo, W; Shan, E; Xi, T; Xiong, J; Yang, H; Yang, J; Zhang, F, 2016)
"Pretreatment of methoxsalen significantly reduced tumor incidence from 93."1.32Pretreatment with 8-methoxypsoralen, a potent human CYP2A6 inhibitor, strongly inhibits lung tumorigenesis induced by 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone in female A/J mice. ( Ikeda, M; Imaida, K; Kamataki, T; Maeta, H; Miyazaki, M; Saoo, K; Takeuchi, H; Yamazaki, H; Yokohira, M, 2003)
