The synthesis of new 7-hydroxy-2-substituted-methyl-5H-oxazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones derivatives, designed as structural bicyclic analogues of the iron chelator deferiprone, is described. They were tested for their ability to inhibit proliferation in human Bcr-Abl+ leukemia cells.

Astragalus membranaceus (AM) herb is a component of traditional Chinese medicine used to treat various cancers. Herein, we demonstrate a strong anti-leukemic effect of AM injected (Ai) into the mouse model of erythroleukemia induced by Friend virus. Chemical analysis combined with mass spectrometry of AM/Ai identified the compounds Betulinic acid, Kaempferol, Hederagenin, and formononetin, all major mediators of leukemia inhibition in culture and in vivo.

Article Synopsis
- Moringa oleifera has been traditionally used in Africa and Asia for its medicinal properties and this study explores its potential anti-leukemia effects through its leaf extracts.
- The research involved treating leukemia cells with different concentrations of aqueous and ethanolic extracts and measuring cell viability, apoptosis, and gene expression.
- Results indicated that these extracts were more effective on leukemia cells compared to healthy cells, highlighting the potential for Moringa extracts to be developed as a novel treatment for leukemia.

Tribulus terrestris L. from the family of Zygophyllaceae, which is rich in saponin compounds, especially diosgenin, has various biological properties, such as anti-inflammation, anti-Alzheimer, anti-obesity, anti-diabetes, anti-leukemia, and anti-cancer activities, due to these compounds. This research aimed to study the diversity of agro-morphological and phytochemical traits and anti-proliferative activity against human prostate cancer cells (PC3) of T.

Objective: To investigate the effects of Curcumol on the malignant biological characteristics of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and its molecular mechanism, and to provide theoretical and experimental evidence for the anti-leukemia treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.
Methods: After the AML cell lines HL-60 and KG-1 cells were treated different concentrations of with Curcumol. The proliferation activity of cells was detected by CCK-8 method, and the expression changes of apoptotic proteins and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway proteins were detected by Western blot.

Background: APG-115 is a novel small-molecule selective inhibitor that destabilizes the p53-MDM2 complex and activates p53-mediated apoptosis in tumor cells. Anlotinib inhibits tumor angiogenesis and promotes apoptosis. In this study, we investigated the apoptotic effect and potential mechanism of APG-115 and anlotinib combination on AML cell lines with different p53 backgrounds.
