Adunctin E from Induces Apoptosis in Lung Cancer via HSP90AA1 Modulation: A Network Pharmacology and In Vitro Study.

Lung cancer stands out as a leading cause of death among various cancer types, highlighting the urgent need for effective anticancer drugs and the discovery of new compounds with potent therapeutic properties. Natural sources, such as the genus, offer various bioactive compounds. Adunctin E (AE), a dihydrochalcone derived from , exhibited several pharmacological activities, and its potential as an anticancer agent remains largely unexplored.

CAMSAP3-mediated regulation of HMGB1 acetylation and subcellular localization in lung cancer cells: Implications for cell death modulation.

Background: Deregulation of cell death is a common characteristic of cancer, and resistance to this process often occurs in lung cancer. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying an aberrant cell death is important. Recent studies have emphasized the involvement of calmodulin-regulated spectrin-associated protein 3 (CAMSAP3) in lung cancer aggressiveness, its influence on cell death regulation remains largely unexplored.

CAMSAP2 enhances lung cancer cell metastasis by mediating RASAL2 degradation.

Aims: Cancer metastasis significantly contributes to mortality in lung cancer patients. Calmodulin-regulated spectrin-associated protein family member 2 (CAMSAP2) plays a significant role in cancer cell migration; however, its role in lung cancer metastasis and the underlying mechanism remain largely unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of CAMSAP2 on lung cancer.

Preclinical Characterization of 22-(4'-Pyridinecarbonyl) Jorunnamycin A against Lung Cancer Cell Invasion and Angiogenesis AKT/mTOR Signaling.

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most prevalent form of lung cancer, is associated with an unfavorable prognosis owing to its high rate of metastasis. Thus, the identification of new drugs with potent anticancer activities is essential to improve the clinical outcome of this disease. Marine organisms exhibit a diverse source of biologically active compounds with anticancer effects.

Light-Mediated Transformation of Renieramycins and Semisynthesis of 4'-Pyridinecarbonyl-Substituted Renieramycin-Type Derivatives as Potential Cytotoxic Agents against Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Cells.

The semisynthesis of renieramycin-type derivatives was achieved under mild and facile conditions by attaching a 1,3-dioxole-bridged phenolic moiety onto ring A of the renieramycin structure and adding a 4'-pyridinecarbonyl ester substituent at its C-5 or C-22 position. These were accomplished through a light-induced intramolecular photoredox reaction using blue light (4 W) and Steglich esterification, respectively. Renieramycin M (), a bis-tetrahydroisoquinolinequinone compound isolated from the Thai blue sponge ( sp.

Identifying molecular targets of Aspiletrein-derived steroidal saponins in lung cancer using network pharmacology and molecular docking-based assessments.

Lung cancer is one of the leading cancers and causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Due to its high prevalence and mortality rate, its clinical management remains a significant challenge. Previously, the in vitro anticancer activity of Aspiletrein A, a steroid and a saponin from Aspidistra letreae, against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells was reported.

Target Identification of 22-(4-Pyridinecarbonyl) Jorunnamycin A, a Tetrahydroisoquinoline Derivative from the Sponge sp., in Mediating Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Cell Apoptosis.

A dysregulation of the cell-death mechanism contributes to poor prognosis in lung cancer. New potent chemotherapeutic agents targeting apoptosis-deregulating molecules have been discovered. In this study, 22-(4-pyridinecarbonyl) jorunnamycin A (22-(4'py)-JA), a synthetic derivative of bistetrahydroisoquinolinequinone from the Thai blue sponge, was semisynthesized by the Steglich esterification method, and its pharmacological mechanism in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was elucidated by a network pharmacology approach.
