arecaidine

11/01/2015 - "Considering the inability of conventional drugs to completely counteract the growth of glioblastoma cancer stem cells (GSCs), we have investigated the effect produced by arecaidine on GSC growth and survival. "
04/01/2013 - "Moreover, we have characterized the effects of the M2 agonist arecaidine on cell growth and survival both in two different glioblastoma cell lines (U251MG and U87MG) and in primary cultures obtained from different human biopsies. "
01/01/2018 - "In previous studies, we found that the orthosteric muscarinic agonist arecaidine propargyl ester (APE) (100 μM) induced a decreased cell proliferation and severe apoptosis in glioblastoma cancer stem cells (GSCs). "
01/01/2021 - "We previously demonstrated that arecaidine propargyl ester (APE), an orthosteric agonist of M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs), arrests the cell cycle of glioblastoma (GB) cells, reducing their survival. "
11/01/2015 - "Previously, we demonstrated that the muscarinic receptor agonist, arecaidine propargyl ester, via M2 receptors, inhibits cell proliferation in a time and dose-dependent manner and induces a severe apoptosis in human U251 and U87 glioblastoma cell lines. "

04/01/2001 - "Because alkaloids from areca nut, arecoline and arecaidine, have been implicated in the development of oral submucous fibrosis, we determined their diffusion kinetics through human buccal and vaginal mucosa. "
01/01/1987 - "Fibroblasts cultured in vitro from normal buccal tissue and from tissue from oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) associated with betel-nut chewing showed no significant difference in their rates of proliferation in culture, nor in the rate at which they hydrolysed the betel nut alkaloid arecoline to arecaidine. "
05/01/2016 - "Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is a pre-malignant condition that is strongly associated with the areca nut alkaloids, arecoline (ARC) and arecaidine (ARD). "
11/01/1995 - "This study aimed to assess the possibility of a direct effect of betel-nut alkaloids arecoline and arecaidine on cell proliferation and interleukin-6 (IL-6) production by cultured fibroblasts from human normal gingiva, buccal mucosa and oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) buccal mucosa in vitro. "

02/01/1996 - "The purpose of the present study was to determine the minimal arecaidine concentrations showing a synergistic effect on DMBA-induced hamster cheek pouch carcinogenesis. "
02/01/1996 - "Thus, the minimal concentrations of arecaidine displaying a synergistic effect in the DMBA-induced hamster cheek pouch of carcinogenesis were found to be 400 micrograms/ ml applied for four weeks after eight weeks of DMBA application, and 900 micrograms/ml applied for eight weeks after four weeks of DMBA painting. "
02/01/1996 - "Minimal arecaidine concentrations showing a promotion effect during DMBA-induced hamster cheek pouch carcinogenesis."
02/01/2001 - "To evaluate a modified method of carcinogenesis induction using the 9,10-dimethyl-1,2-benzanthracene (DMBA) sustained-release suture technique followed by arecaidine promotion in the hamster cheek pouch model. "
01/31/2022 - "Four major areca alkaloids-arecoline, arecaidine, guvacoline and guvacine-together with the polyphenols, were identified as being potentially involved in oral carcinogenesis. "

02/01/1996 - "After eight weeks of DMBA initiation and then four weeks of arecaidine promotion, 100% tumor incidence was found with arecaidine concentrations of 400 micrograms/ml and 500 micrograms/ml; average tumor numbers were 1.86 +/- 0.63 and 1.86 +/- 0.93 respectively (P < 0.05). "
02/01/1996 - "Without DMBA pretreatment, regardless of the high arecaidine concentrations (1000 micrograms/ml, 2000 micrograms/ml and 3000 micrograms/ml) applied, no visible tumor growth was observed; only hyperkeratosis and inflammation could be discerned histologically. "
02/01/2001 - "The cheek pouches were everted and painted with a solution of arecaidine three times weekly for up to an additional 4 weeks or until the tumor reached a size of 100 mm2. "
02/01/1996 - "After four weeks of DMBA and a subsequent eight weeks of arecaidine painting, all hamsters developed visible tumors with arecaidine concentrations of 900 micrograms/ml and 1000 micrograms/ml; average tumor numbers were 1.86 +/- 0.82 and 2.14 +/- 1.09 respectively (P < 0.05). "
05/17/2010 - "Here, a reexamination of the metabolism of the food mutagen PhIP (2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine), the suspect carcinogen areca alkaloids (arecoline, arecaidine, and arecoline 1-oxide), the hormone supplement melatonin, and the metabolism of the experimental cancer therapeutic agent aminoflavone is presented. "

01/01/1979 - "Betel nuts, arecaidine, and oral cancer."
01/01/2022 - "Chewing of BQ is associated with oral cancers due to specific carcinogenic alkaloids (arecaidine, guvacine, guvacoline, arecoline, N-Nitrosoguvacoline) in AN. To predict the hazardous health risks of short and long-term chewing of BQ, it is crucial to identify five toxic AN alkaloids in saliva and urine of BQ chewers. "
10/01/1989 - "Because betel quid chewing has been linked to the development of oral cancer, pathobiological effects of an aqueous areca nut extract, four areca nut alkaloids (arecoline, guvacoline, guvacine, and arecaidine), and four nitrosated derivatives [N-nitrosoguvacoline, N-nitrosoguvacine, 3-(N-nitrosomethylamino)propionaldehyde and 3-(N-nitrosomethylamino)propionitrile] have been investigated using cultured human buccal epithelial cells.
