Bibenzyls

05/25/2020 - "For decades, bibenzyls, which are the main bioactive components derived from Dendrobium species, have been subjected to extensive investigation as likely candidates for cancer treatment. "
05/26/2021 - "Based on previous investigations where bis-bibenzyls isolated from liverworts showed various biological activities (cytotoxic, antimicrobial, and antiviral), we investigated their cytotoxic activity in several human cancer cell lines. "
01/01/2012 - "Some of the isolated bibenzyls showed cytotoxicity against KB, NCI-H187, and MCF-7 cancer cells, whereas all of the glycosidic flavonoids were devoid of activity."
09/01/2010 - "Cytotoxicity tests to human tumor KB, KB/VCR, K562 or K562/A02 cells showed bibenzyls 8-11 inhibited cell proliferation with ID(50) values ranging from 11.3 to 49.6 microM and overcame the multidrug resistance (MDR) with the reversal fold (RF) values ranging from 3.19 to 10.91 (5 microM) for vincristine-resistant KB/VCR and RF values from 4.40 to 8.26 (5 microM) for adriamycin-resistant K562/A02 cells, respectively. "
10/15/2020 - "Previous studies showed that the bibenzyls has good anti-tumor, anti-diabetes and its complications, and neuroprotective effects, and it has great potential for treating tumors, diabetes and its complications, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). "

05/01/1988 - "All the bibenzyls caused leukemia cells to accumulate in mitosis at cytotoxic drug concentrations; however, a wide range of in vitro activity against the protein tubulin (the major component of the mitotic spindle) was observed."
05/26/2021 - "Cytotoxic activity of the isolated compounds was tested on three human leukemia cell lines, HL-60 (acute promyelocytic leukemia cells), U-937 (acute monocytic leukemia cells), and K-562 (human chronic myelogenous leukemia cells), as well as on human embryonal teratocarcinoma cell line (NT2/D1) and human glioblastoma cell lines A-172 and U-251, and compared to the previously isolated bis-bibenzyls (perrottetins) of similar structure. "
03/01/2011 - "The structure activity relationship (SAR) study showed that the presence of a phthalide group in bibenzyls, an alpha-methylene-gamma-lactone in germacrane-type sesquiterpenoids, and beta-hydroxycarbonyl in pinguisane-type sesquiterpenoids play an important role in providing cytotoxic activity against both human promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) and human pharyngeal squamous carcinoma (KB) cell lines. "

01/01/2021 - "Bibenzyls also have great potency to inhibit the progression of the chronic inflammation in cellular studies. "
01/01/2021 - "Polysaccharides and bibenzyls are the major active compounds in medicinal dendrobiums for diabetic management through the mechanisms of lowering glucose level and reversing chronic inflammation of T2DM by modulating pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance in liver as a result from gut microbita regulation."
07/01/2020 - "Anti-inflammation assay showed that bibenzyls 1-3 could significantly inhibit the production of nitric oxide(NO) and the expression of tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α) and interleukin 1β(IL-1β) mRNA in LPS-induced RAW264.7 macrophages. "
01/04/2017 - "striata are polysaccharides, bibenzyls, phenanthrenes, triterpenoids and its saponins, steroids and its saponins, which also have been proven to be the main bioactive substances capable of exhibiting numerous pharmacological activities including wound healing, antiulcer, hemostasis, cytotoxicity, antimicrobial, anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, immunomodulation, anti-fibrosis, antiaging, anti-allergy, and anti-itch. "

10/15/2020 - "Previous studies showed that the bibenzyls has good anti-tumor, anti-diabetes and its complications, and neuroprotective effects, and it has great potential for treating tumors, diabetes and its complications, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). "

03/01/2011 - "The structure activity relationship (SAR) study showed that the presence of a phthalide group in bibenzyls, an alpha-methylene-gamma-lactone in germacrane-type sesquiterpenoids, and beta-hydroxycarbonyl in pinguisane-type sesquiterpenoids play an important role in providing cytotoxic activity against both human promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) and human pharyngeal squamous carcinoma (KB) cell lines.
