Verbesina encelioides: cytotoxicity, cell cycle arrest, and oxidative DNA damage in human liver cancer (HepG2) cell line.
BACKGROUND: Cancer is a major health problem and exploiting natural products have been one of the most successful methods to combat this disease. Verbesina encelioides is a notorious weed with various pharmacological properties. The aim of the present investigation was to screen the anticancer potential of V. encelioides extract against human lung cancer (A-549), breast cancer (MCF-7), and liver cancer (HepG2) cell lines. METHODS: A-549, MCF-7, and HepG2 cells were exposed to various concentrations of (10-1000 μg/ml) of V.
PubMed: 27161012Spirilloxanthin from Verbesina encelioides Flower Extract has Neuroprotective Benefits in Scopolamine-Induced Memory Impaired Rats that Resemble Alzheimer's Disease.
Neuronal degeneration is a widespread complication associated with ageing, with Alzheimer's disease (AD) being one of the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorders. AD is marked by limited treatment options and significant side effects, prompting growing interest in natural compounds for their therapeutic potential. This study evaluates the neuroprotective effects of spirilloxanthin, a major bioactive compound identified in the flower extract of Verbesina encelioides (VFE), against scopolamine-induced neurobehavioral impairments in a rat model of AD. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-M
PubMed: 40437285Novel hypotensive agents from Verbesina caracasana: structure, synthesis and pharmacology.
The number and the pharmacological activities of drugs featuring a guanidine group is actually amazing. Many synthetic guanidine derivatives have attracted pharmacologists in search of new antihypertensive drugs for their ability to block adrenergic nerve activity through central and/or peripheral mechanisms. As a result, compounds such as guanethidine, guanabenz, guanfacine, and pinacidil have been introduced in antihypertensive drug therapy. A crude methanol extract of the Venezuelan plant Verbesina caracasana Fries (Compositae), intravenously administered to mice, was found to induce biolog
PubMed: 12871108New antibacterial germacrene from Verbesina negrensis.
Several health benefits have been attributed to members of the Verbesina genus, including promotion of urinary and gastrointestinal health. Verbesina species are also reported to exhibit antibacterial, antiparasitic, and antioxidant activities. Although members of the Verbesina genus produce various pharmacologically relevant chemicals as secondary metabolites, including eudesmanes, flavonoids, guanidine alkaloids, acetylenic compounds, and germacrenes, the active compounds required for these benefits remain unknown. To investigate potential antimicrobial activities of Verbesina negrensis, cru
PubMed: 23670623Texas Native Plants Yield Compounds with Cytotoxic Activities against Prostate Cancer Cells.
There remains a critical need for more effective therapies for the treatment of late-stage and metastatic prostate cancers. Three Texas native plants yielded three new and three known compounds with antiproliferative and cytotoxic activities against prostate cancer cells with IC50 values in the range of 1.7-35.0 μM. A new sesquiterpene named espadalide (1), isolated from Gochnatia hypoleuca, had low micromolar potency and was highly effective in clonogenic assays. Two known bioactive germacranolides (2 and 3) were additionally isolated from G. hypoleuca.
PubMed: 26785306Contexto Científico
La pregunta de investigación era si los compuestos de Verbesina crocata podían inhibir el crecimiento de células cancerosas [PMID 11520203]. Un cuarto estudio, aunque menos detallado en la literatura de acceso rápido, exploró la actividad antioxidante mediante el método de DPPH. La pregunta era la capacidad de la planta para capturar radicales libres. Los resultados mostraron una alta actividad antioxidante, lo que en lenguaje simple significa que la planta es muy buena para proteger las células del daño causado por el estrés ambiental.
