Synthesis, Biological Activity, and Molecular Modelling Studies of Naphthoquinone Derivatives as Promising Anticancer Candidates Targeting COX-2

Povilas Kavaliauskas et al.

Summary: In this paper, the authors develop naphthoquinone derivatives with selective anticancer activity against NSCLC through a COX-2 mediated pathway. Compounds 9 and 16 demonstrate the most promising anticancer activity and show lower cytotoxicity to non-cancerous cells. Further studies are needed to understand the safety and in vivo efficacy of these compounds.

Rutin Mediated Apoptotic Cell Death in Caski Cervical Cancer Cells via Notch-1 and Hes-1 Downregulation

Fahad Khan et al.

Summary: The study found that rutin exhibited dose-dependent anti-proliferative effects on Caski cervical cancer cells, inducing significant apoptosis through caspase-3/9 activation, ROS generation, and alteration in Bax/Bcl2 mRNA expression. Cell cycle analysis showed G0/G1 phase arrest associated with reduced expression of CDK4 and Cyclin D1. Gene expression analysis indicated that rutin treatment decreased Notch-1 and Hes-1 mRNA expression levels.

Pterostilbene in Cancer Therapy

Elena Obrador et al.

Summary: Pterostilbene has shown effectiveness against melanoma by inhibiting adrenocorticotropic hormone production in the brain and promoting cancer cell death via lysosomal membrane permeabilization. It has been found to be safe when administered intravenously in mice, suggesting its potential as an adjuvant therapy in cancer treatment. Further research is needed to optimize its bioavailability and efficacy.
