In contrast to normal differentiated cells, which rely primarily on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to generate the energy needed for cellular processes, most cancer cells instead rely on aerobic glycolysis, a ph...

Drimartol A (DA), a sesquiterpene courmarin ether, was isolated from the cultured hairy roots of A. annua for the first time, and no biological activity of DA has ever been reported. In this work, DA was shown to possess...

Ganoderic acid Mk (GA-Mk), a triterpenoid acid, was isolated from the mycelia of Ganoderma lucidum, and no biological activity of GA-Mk has ever been reported. In this work, we investigated the effect of GA-Mk on the cel...

The present study was designed to investigate the effects of curcumin, a natural product derived from turmeric of the herb Curcuma longa, on proliferation, metastasis of FaDu cells, and the relevant mechanisms. Results s...

Human blastocyst-derived, pluripotent cell lines are described that have normal karyotypes, express high levels of telomerase activity, and express cell surface markers that characterize primate embryonic stem cells but ...

Rutin was isolated from dried leaves and flowers of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench.). The effects of rutin on angiotensin II-induced hypertrophy of cultured cardiac myocytes and proliferation of cardiac fibrobl...
