Gossypol [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Andrology, 1982
The discovery by the Chinese scientists of gossypol as a male fertility regulating agent constitutes a major lead in male contraception. Gossypol is a polyphenolic compound present in the seed of the glandular variety of the cotton plant. Most of the basic and clinical studies in China and in other countries more recently, have been carried out with ...

Gossypol detoxification in the rumen and Helicoverpa armigera larvae: A review

open access: yesAnimal Nutrition, 2021
Gossypol, a phenolic compound found in the cotton plant, is widely distributed in cottonseed by-products. Although ruminant animals are believed to be more tolerant of gossypol toxicity than monogastric animals due to rumen microbial fermentation, the ...

Prenatal Exposure to Gossypol Impairs Corticogenesis of Mouse

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Gossypol is a yellow polyphenolic compounds extracted from roots, stems and seeds of cotton plants. Excessive intake of gossypol induces severe pathological signs of toxicity in livestock and wildlife.

Gossypol improves myocardial dysfunction caused by sepsis by regulating histone acetylation

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, 2023
Gossypol is a polyphenol from the cotton plant with anti‐inflammatory and anti‐oxidation activities and can also function as a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor. Sepsis is an inflammatory disease with high mortality.

(±)-Gossypol induces apoptosis and autophagy in head and neck carcinoma cell lines and inhibits the growth of transplanted salivary gland cancer cells in BALB/c mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Racemic Gossypol [(±)-GOS], composed of both (-)-GOS and (+)-GOS, is a small BH3-mimetic polyphenol derived from cotton seeds. (±)-GOS has been employed and well tolerated by cancer patients. Head and neck carcinoma (HNC) represents one of the most fatal

An in vitro and in silico study of anti-dermatophytic activity of gossypol from fruits of Thespesia populnea (L.) Sol. ex Correa

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine, 2021
Objective: To isolate, purify, and characterize gossypol from the fruits of Thespesia populnea (L) Sol. ex Correa, test its anti- dermatophytic activity, identify its targets on the dermatophyte, and confirm the binding of gossypol with the fungal target

Effect of dietary gossypol supplement on fermentation characteristics and bacterial diversity in the rumen of sheep.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The tolerance of ruminants to gossypol, a natural phenolic compound derived from the cotton plant, is greater than that of monogastric animals, partially because of the gossypol-degrading bacteria in the rumen of the ruminants. In this study, we aimed to

The embryotoxicity of gossypol [PDF]

open access: yesTeratology, 1985
AbstractIn utero development was analyzed in pregnancies that resulted from matings between gossypol‐treated male rats and untreated female rats and in pregnancies in which gossypol was administered to the pregnant rat only. Gossypol treatment of males had no effect on the outcome of pregnancy.
