Abstract 5264: Cucurbitacin D modulates the Nrf2 signaling pathway and protects against benzo[a]pyrene-induced liver injury

Cancer Research, 2023
Abstract Background: Accumulating studies have shown strong correlation of HCC and co-morbidity factors including smoking. Tobacco smoke contains benzo[a]pyrene, which is extremely carcinogenic and contributes to liver damage. Cucurbitacin, a triterpene, has a wide range of biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory,

Metabolic transformations of cucurbitacins by Diabrotica virgifera virgifera leconte and D. undecimpunctata howardi Barber

Insect Biochemistry, 1988
Four glucosidic products of the metabolism of dietary cucurbitacins were isolated from whole body extracts of field collected Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi Barber by preparative HPLC. These were identified on the basis of mass and 13C NMR spectral data as 23,24-dihydrocucurbitacin I-2-O-d-glucoside (1), 23,24-dihydrocucurbitacin 2-O-d-glucoside (2)

Mitogen-activated protein kinases are involved in cucurbitacin D-induced antitumor effects on adult T-cell leukemia cells

Investigational New Drugs, 2020
Adult T cell leukemia (ATL) is an aggressive and malignant blood disease. We previously reported that steroid-structured cucurbitacin D (CuD) induces apoptosis in ATL cells. In this study, we investigated the effects of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling inhibitors on CuD-induced cell death in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) isolated

Abstract 3081: Novel cucurbitacin analogue Cuc D exhibits potent anti-cancer activity in cervical cancer

Cancer Research, 2016
Abstract Background: Cervical cancer is one of the leading cause of mortality among women in US. Naturally occurring dietary compounds have gained increasing attention for their anticancer effects. Cucurbitacins, tetracyclic triterpenoid compound, belong to a family of Cucurbitaceae have shown promising anti-cancer activity.

Abstract 2934: Cucurbitacin D enhances the therapeutic efficacy of docetaxel via targeting cancer stem cells and miR-145

Cancer Research, 2018
Abstract Background: Docetaxel (DTX) is an FDA approved drug for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer (PrCa). However, chemo-resistance and toxicity limits its use in clinic. Accumulating evidence suggests that activation of cancer stem cells (CSCs) is one of the mechanisms leading to developing chemo-resistance Therefore ...

A monitoring trap for Diabrotica virgifera virgifera and D. barberi adults lured with a poisoned cucurbitacin bait.

Communications in agricultural and applied biological sciences, 2004
A trap is described that uses as a simple natural ingredient a cucurbitacin mixture to capture and carbaryl insecticide to kill northern and western corn rootworm beetles (Diabrotica barberi Smith and Lawrence, and Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte (D.v.v.), respectively). The trap is consistent in numbers of beetles captured per trap per day, and
