pimagedine and Malignant Melanoma

pimagedine has been researched along with Malignant Melanoma in 2 studies

pimagedine: diamine oxidase & nitric oxide synthase inhibitor; an advanced glycosylation end product inhibitor; used in the treatment of diabetic complications; structure
aminoguanidine : A one-carbon compound whose unique structure renders it capable of acting as a derivative of hydrazine, guanidine or formamide.

"As a result of bioassay-guided fractionation, betulinic acid, a pentacyclic triterpene, was identified as a melanoma-specific cytotoxic agent."7.69Discovery of betulinic acid as a selective inhibitor of human melanoma that functions by induction of apoptosis. ( Beecher, CW; Brown, DM; Chagwedera, TE; Chai, H; Cordell, GA; Farnsworth, NR; Fong, HH; Kinghorn, AD; Lee, IS; Pisha, E, 1995)

"Finally, comparison of control and AMG-treated melanoma cells by pathway-specific gene array analysis indicated that inhibition of NO synthesis led, before induction of apoptosis, to up-regulation of mRNA levels of genes involved in the apoptosis pathway such as Bax, caspase-1, caspase-3, caspase-6, gadd45beta, mdm2, and TRAIL."1.31Antiapoptotic role of endogenous nitric oxide in human melanoma cells. ( Anichini, A; Bersani, I; Carsana, M; Salvucci, O; Tragni, G, 2001)
