NSC-631570 (Ukrain) is an aqueous extract of laminin). Microarray analysis revealed the downregulation of Chelidonium majus, a herbaceous perennial plant, one of two genes encoding key regulators, including EGFR, AKT2, JAK1, species in the genus Chelidonium, which has been demonstrated STAT3 and ß-catenin (CTNNB1), all of which are involved in to selectively kill tumor cells without affecting non-malignant cell proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, apoptosis as well as cells. In the present study, the components of NSC-631570 the radiation- and chemo-resistance of HNSCC. The strongest were examined by combined liquid chromatography/mass upregulation occurred for cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) spectroscopy (LC-MS) and the effects of NSC-631570 on and 1B1 (CYP1B1), involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics. HNSCC cell lines, as well as primary cells, were analyzed Upregulation of CYP1A1 was at least partially caused by chel- with respect to growth, apoptosis, invasion, angiogenesis erythrine and allocryptopine, as shown by RT-qPCR in two and gene expression. LC-MS identified chelerythrine and HNSCC cell lines. In addition, NSC-631570 showed a high allocryptopine as the major alkaloids of the extract.

Its stem is branched and usually extremely prickly. It exudes a yellow juice when cut. It has showy yellow flowers. Leaves are thistle-like and alternate, without leaf stalks (petioles), toothed (serrate) and the margins are spiny. The grey-white veins stand out against the bluish-green upper leaf surface. The stem is oblong in cross-section. Flowers are at the tips of the branches (are terminal) and solitary, yellow and of 2.5-5 cm diameter. Fruit is a prickly oblong or egg-shaped (ovoid) capsule. Seeds are very numerous, nearly spherical, covered in a fine network of veins, brownish black and about 1 m m in diameter (Nacoulma, 1996; Bosch, 2008). 1 MEAMP – Appear Project – 75 September 2012 – August 2014 Photo LABIOCA 1.

    DESMODIUM ALKALOIDS PART IP CHEMICAL AND PHARMACOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF D. GANGETICUM By S. Ghosal and S. K. Bhattacharya Introduction The members of the genus Desmodiurn (Papilionaceae) are mostly shrubs, widely distributed in tropical and sub-tropical habitats and particularly abundant in India. They are well known for their various medicinal uses in the Indian system of medicine (Chopra et al., 1956). Among about four dozen Desmodium species available in this country, chemical and pharmacological evaluation of D. pulchel- lurn Benth. ex Baker (Ghosal et al., 1971) and only preliminary chemical in- vestigation of the entitled species (Ghosal and Banerjee, 1969) have been re- ported so far. The medicinal uses of the plant extracts and the high alkaloid con- tent of the two aforementioned species prompted us to examine in detail the alka- loid content and pharmacological properties of the available Desmodium species. Such investigation would also serve to locate the active principles of the plants with respect to the reported medicinal uses of their crude extracts.The initial chemical investigation with D. gangeticum DC has now been complemented by detail chemical and pharmacological evaluation of the species at different stages of its development. The results are reported in this paper. Experimental The general procedure for the separation and identification of the CHCla-soluble alkaloids involved gradient-pH extraction from aqueous AcOH solution; column chromatographic reso· lution over Brockman neutral alumina; paper chromatography (Whatrna~ 3MM papers) anc TLC (silica gel G, E. Merck) of the eluates from column chromatorgaphic runs in presence 0 markers (Ghosal and Mukherjee, 1966; Ghosal et aI., 1971a); preparation of picrate hydrochloride, and methiodide where possible; and determination of UV, IR, NMR and mas spectra of the single entities.
