    Ampelopsin targets in cellular processes of cancer: Recent trends and advances
    (Elsevier Inc., 2022-07-27T00:00:00) Tuli, Hardeep Singh; Sak, Katrin; Garg, Vivek Kumar; Kumar, Ajay; Adhikary, Shubham; Kaur, Ginpreet; Parashar, Nidarshana Chaturvedi; Parashar, Gaurav; Mukherjee, Tapan Kumar; Sharma, Uttam; Jain, Aklank; Mohapatra, Ranjan K.; Dhama, Kuldeep; Kumar, Manoj; Singh, Tejveer
    Cancer is being considered as a serious threat to human health globally due to limited availability and efficacy of therapeutics. In addition, existing chemotherapeutic drugs possess a diverse range of toxic side effects. Therefore, more research is welcomed to investigate the chemo-preventive action of plant-based metabolites. Ampelopsin (dihydromyricetin) is one among the biologically active plant-based chemicals with promising anti-cancer actions. It modulates the expression of various cellular molecules that are involved in cancer progressions. For instance, ampelopsin enhances the expression of apoptosis inducing proteins. It regulates the expression of angiogenic and metastatic proteins to inhibit tumor growth. Expression of inflammatory markers has also been found to be suppressed by ampelopsin in cancer cells. The present review article describes various anti-tumor cellular targets of ampelopsin at a single podium which will help the researchers to understand mechanistic insight of this phytochemical. � 2022 The Authors

    Path of Silibinin from diet to medicine: A dietary polyphenolic flavonoid having potential anti-cancer therapeutic significance
    (Academic Press, 2020-10-29T00:00:00) Tuli, Hardeep Singh; Mittal, Sonam; Aggarwal, Diwakar; Parashar, Gaurav; Parashar, Nidarshana Chaturvedi; Upadhyay, Sushil Kumar; Barwal, Tushar Singh; Jain, Aklank; Kaur, Ginpreet; Savla, Raj; Sak, Katrin; Kumar, Manoj; Varol, Mehmet; Iqubal, Ashif; Sharma, Anil Kumar
    In the last few decades, targeting cancer by the use of dietary phytochemicals has gained enormous attention. The plausible reason and believe or mind set behind this fact is attributed to either lesser or no side effects of natural compounds as compared to the modern chemotherapeutics, or due to their conventional use as dietary components by mankind for thousands of years. Silibinin is a naturally derived polyphenol (a flavonolignans), possess following biochemical features; molecular formula C25H22O10, Molar mass: 482.44 g/mol, Boiling point 793 �C, with strikingly high antioxidant and anti-tumorigenic properties. The anti-cancer properties of Silibinin are determined by a variety of cellular pathways which include induction of apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, inhibition of angiogenesis and metastasis. In addition, Silibinin controls modulation of the expression of aberrant miRNAs, inflammatory response, and synergism with existing anti-cancer drugs. Therefore, modulation of a vast array of cellular responses and homeostatic aspects makes Silibinin an attractive chemotherapeutic agent. However, like other polyphenols, the major hurdle to declare Silibinin a translational chemotherapeutic agent, is its lesser bioavailability. After summarizing the chemistry and metabolic aspects of Silibinin, this extensive review focuses on functional aspects governed by Silibinin in chemoprevention with an ultimate goal of summarizing the evidence supporting the chemopreventive potential of Silibinin and clinical trials that are currently ongoing, at a single platform. � 2020 Elsevier Ltd

    Recent development in indole derivatives as anticancer agent: A mechanistic approach
    (Bentham Science Publishers, 2021-01-05T00:00:00) Devi, Neha; Kaur, Kamalpreet; Biharee, Avadh; Jaitak, Vikas
    Background: Cancer accounts for several deaths each year. There are multiple FDA approved drugs for cancer treatments. Due to the severe side effects and multiple drug resistance, the current drug therapies become ineffective. So, the newer moieties with fewer toxic effects are necessary for the development. Objective: The mechanism of indole derivatives as anti-cancer agents with their major target is explored in detail in this article. Methods: Recent advances and mechanism of indole derivatives as anti-cancer agents are reviewed. This review suggests a detailed explanation of multiple mechanisms of action of various indole derivatives: cell cycle arrest, aromatase inhibitor estrogen receptor regulator, tubulin inhibitor, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, topoisomerase inhibitors, and NFkB/PI3/Akt/mTOR pathway inhibitors, through which these derivatives have shown promising anti-cancer potential. Results: A full literature review showed that the indole derivatives are associated with the properties of inducing apoptosis, aromatase inhibition, regulation of estrogen receptor and inhibition of tyrosine kinase, tubulin assembly, NFkB/PI3/Akt/mTOR pathway, and HDACs. These derivatives have shown significant activity against cancer cell lines. Conclusion: Indole derivatives seem to be important in cancer via acting through various mechanisms. This review has shown that the indole derivatives can further be explored for the betterment of cancer treatment, and to discover the hidden potential of indole derivatives. � 2021 Bentham Science Publishers.
