ABSTRACT World Health Organization data indicate a continuous increase in melanoma incidence, with metastatic melanoma characterized by poor prognosis and drug resistance. The exploration of therapeutics derived from natural products remains an active area of in vitro research. The aim of this study was to determine the antitumor effects of picrasidine

Abstract Cardiac glycosides are chemical defence toxins known to fatally inhibit the Na,K‐ATPase (NKA) throughout the animal kingdom. Several animals, however, have evolved target‐site insensitivity through substitutions in the otherwise highly conserved cardiac glycoside binding pocket of the NKA. The large milkweed bug, Oncopeltus fasciatus, shares a

Resibufogenin suppresses colorectal cancer growth and metastasis through RIP3-mediated necroptosis
Background Necroptotic susceptibility is probably an intrinsic weakness of cancer. Here, we report that resibufogenin, a member of bufadienolide family, suppresses the growth and metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC) through induction of necroptosis in ...

Nephroprotective effect of the cardiotonic steroid ouabain [PDF]
It has been shown that Na,K-ATPase (NKA) is a signal transducer. Our group described the anti-apoptotic effect of ouabain to the signaling function of NKA.

Natriuretic Hormones, Endogenous Ouabain, and Related Sodium Transport Inhibitors
The work of deWardener and colleagues stimulated longstanding interest in natriuretic hormones (NH). In addition to the atrial peptides (APs), the circulation contains unidentified physiologically-relevant NHs. One NH is controlled by the central nervous
