Chili pepper extracts, capsaicin, and dihydrocapsaicin as potential anticancer agents targeting topoisomerases. [PDF]

BMC Complement Med Ther
AbstractDNA topoisomerases regulate conformational changes in DNA topology during normal cell growth, such as replication, transcription, recombination, and repair, and may be targeted for anticancer drugs. A DNA topology assay was used to investigate DNA-damaging/protective activities of extracts from Habanero Red (HR), Habanero Maya Red (HMR ...

Virtual Screening of Phytochemicals From Medicinal Plants as Promising PDE5 Inhibitors Against Erectile Dysfunction. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr
Phytochemicals from Algerian medicinal plants were virtually screened as potential phosphodiesterase‐5 (PDE5) inhibitors for erectile dysfunction therapy. Drug‐likeness and toxicity analyses identified catechin, ellagic acid, and rosmarinic acid as safe, bioavailable candidates.

Dihydrocapsaicin-induced hypothermia after asphyxiai cardiac arrest in rats [PDF]

2016 38th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2016
Cardiac arrest (CA) is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the world. Fast, reversible and controllable pharmaceutical-induced hypothermia (PIH) is strongly desired to treat ischemia-reperfusion brain injury. Dihydrocapsaicin (DHC), an agonist of transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 cation channel (TRPV1), is an emerging ...
