Curcumin-Induced Antitumor Effects On Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Patient-Derived Xenograft Tumor Mice Through Inhibiting Salt-Induced Kinase-3 Protein, Tzu-Chun Cheng, John Oliver Sayseng, Shih-Hsin Tu, Ting-Ching Juan, Chia-Lang Fang, You-Cheng Liao, Cheng-Ying Chu, Hui-Wen Chang, Yun Yen, Li-Ching Chen, Yuan-Soon Ho Dec 2021

Curcumin-Induced Antitumor Effects On Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Patient-Derived Xenograft Tumor Mice Through Inhibiting Salt-Induced Kinase-3 Protein, Tzu-Chun Cheng, John Oliver Sayseng, Shih-Hsin Tu, Ting-Ching Juan, Chia-Lang Fang, You-Cheng Liao, Cheng-Ying Chu, Hui-Wen Chang, Yun Yen, Li-Ching Chen, Yuan-Soon Ho

Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

This study demonstrated for the first time that curcumin effectively inhibits the growth of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) tumors by inhibiting the expression of salt-induced kinase-3 (SIK3) protein in patient-derived xenografted tumor mice (TNBC-PDX). For TNBC patients, chemotherapy is the only option for postoperative adjuvant treatment. In this study, we detected the SIK3 mRNA expression in paired-breast cancer tissues by PCR analysis. The results revealed that SIK3 mRNA expression was significantly higher in tumor tissues when compared to the normal adjacent tissues (73.25 times, n=183). Thus, it is proposed for the first time that the antitumor effect induced by curcumin …


Anti-Lymphangiogenic Diterpenes From The Bark Of Calocedrus Macrolepis Var. Formosana, Tzong-Huei Lee, Chin-Lin Hsieh, Ho-Cheng Wu, Shih-Wei Wang, Chen-Lin Yu, George Hsiao, Ming-Jen Cheng, Wen-Tsong Hsieh, Yueh-Hsiung Kuo Dec 2021

Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

Eight new diterpenes, 6α,7β-dihydroxyferruginol (1), 6α,7α-dihydroxyferruginol (2), 6α-hydroxyhinokiol (3), 4α-hydroxy-7-oxo-18-norabieta-8,11,13-trien-4α-ol (4a), 15,16-dehydrosugiol (5), 7-methoxy-6,7-secoabieta-8,11,13-triene-6,12-diol (6), 7α-acetoxyabieta-8,12-diene-11,14-dione (7), 7α-butyloxyethyloxyabieta-8,12-diene-11,14-dione (8), along with four known compounds, 6,7-dehydroferruginol (9), 12-hydroxy-6,7-secoabieta-8,11,13-triene-6,7-dial (10), 7α-11-dihydroxy-12-methoxy-8,11,13-abietatriene (11), and 11,14-dihydroxy-8,11,13-abietatrien-7-one (12) were successfully isolated from the bark of Calocedrus macrolepis var. formosana. The structures of all isolates were elucidated by physical data (appearance, UV, IR, optical rotation) and spectroscopic data (1D, 2D NMR, and HREIMS). Compounds 9, 10, 11, and 12 showed promising growth-inhibitory effect on human lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs). Among these compounds, compound 10 exerted the most potent anti-lymphangiogenesis property by suppressing cell growth and …


Medicarpin Isolated From Radix Hedysari Ameliorates Brain Injury In A Murine Model Of Cerebral Ischemia, Chang-Ming Chern, Chung-Kuang Lu, Kuo-Tong Liou, Yea-Hwey Wang, Keng-Chang Tsai, Chia-Lin Chang, Chia-Che Chang, Yuh-Chiang Shen Dec 2021

Medicarpin Isolated From Radix Hedysari Ameliorates Brain Injury In A Murine Model Of Cerebral Ischemia, Chang-Ming Chern, Chung-Kuang Lu, Kuo-Tong Liou, Yea-Hwey Wang, Keng-Chang Tsai, Chia-Lin Chang, Chia-Che Chang, Yuh-Chiang Shen

Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

The development of effective post-stroke therapy is highly demanded. Medicarpin is a key active component of a famous Chinese herbal prescription used for post-stroke treatment in Taiwan; however, little is known about its biological effects and mechanisms of action. Herein, we implemented a murine model of cerebral ischemic/reperfusional injury-related stroke to elucidate medicarpin’s neuroprotective effect. In male ICR mice 24 h after stroke induction, treatment with medicarpin (0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg, i.v.) markedly enhanced the survival rates, improved moving distance and walking area coverage, reduced brain infarction, and preserved the blood-brain barrier, supporting medicarpin’s protective effect on stroke-induced injury. Immunohistochemistry …


In-Silico Efficacy Of Potential Phytomolecules From Ayurvedic Herbs As An Adjuvant Therapy In Management Of Covid-19, Bhanu Kumar, Ankita Misra, Satyendra Pratap Singh, Yogeshwar Vikram Dhar, Poonam Rawat, Debprasad Chattopadhyay, Saroj Kanta Barik, Sharad Srivastava Dec 2021

In-Silico Efficacy Of Potential Phytomolecules From Ayurvedic Herbs As An Adjuvant Therapy In Management Of Covid-19, Bhanu Kumar, Ankita Misra, Satyendra Pratap Singh, Yogeshwar Vikram Dhar, Poonam Rawat, Debprasad Chattopadhyay, Saroj Kanta Barik, Sharad Srivastava

Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

The recent COVID-19 outbreak caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus has sparked a new spectrum of investigations, research and studies in multifarious directions. Efforts are being made around the world for discovery of effective vaccines/drugs against COVID-19. In this context, Ayurveda, an alternative traditional system of medicine in India may work as an adjuvant therapy in compromised patients. We selected 40 herbal leads on the basis of their traditional applications. The phytomolecules from these leads were further screened through in-silico molecular docking against two main targets of SARS-CoV-2 i.e. the spike protein (S; structural protein) and the main protease (MPRO …


Conducting Polymer-Based Sensors For Food And Drug Analysis, Chia-Hsin Lin, Jia-Hui Lin, Chien-Fu Chen, Yoshihiro Ito, Shyh-Chyang Luo Dec 2021

Conducting Polymer-Based Sensors For Food And Drug Analysis, Chia-Hsin Lin, Jia-Hui Lin, Chien-Fu Chen, Yoshihiro Ito, Shyh-Chyang Luo

Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

Conducting polymers (CPs) are a category of polymeric materials with conjugated main chains. The characteristic electrical and optical properties of CPs can be fine-tuned through controlling the doping states of CPs. Because of their long-term stability in water, CPs have been demonstrated as electroactive biointerfaces and electrode materials especially in aqueous environments. Serving as multifunctional interfaces and organic electrodes for the integration bioelectronics and devices, CPs have been studied and applied in various biological applications. This paper provides a review of conducting polymer–based electrochemical sensors, particularly those used in biological fields. General conducting polymers and derivatives and their main electrochemical …


Recent Developments In Sensing Of Oversulfated Chondroitin Sulfate In Heparin. A Review ., Manivannan Madhu, Wei-Lung Tseng Dec 2021

Recent Developments In Sensing Of Oversulfated Chondroitin Sulfate In Heparin. A Review ., Manivannan Madhu, Wei-Lung Tseng

Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

Oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS), a non-natural sulfated glycosaminoglycan, recognizes as a significant containment in the pharmaceutical heparin, and it could trigger adverse reactions. Chromatography-, electrophoresis-, electrochemistry-, and spectroscopy-related techniques are currently available for accurate and precise analysis of a trace amount of OSCS in heparin. Recently, emerging studies focus on developing colorimetric and fluorescent probes to monitor OSCS containments in heparin. Therefore, this current review aims to describe the sensing principle and procedure of the reported probes that are sensitive and selective toward OSCS in heparin without the interferences of other sulfated glycosaminoglycans. The reported OSCS-specific probes are comprehensively discussed …
