Effect of the photodegradation of chemotherapeutic agent methotrexate on the denaturation of human serum albumin has been studied by differential scanning calorimetry and fluorimetric measurements. Photoluminescence studies highlighted entropy driven binding of both methotrexate molecules and its degradation products to the albumin molecules. The c...

Abstract Vanilla is the world’s most popular flavour extracted from the pods of Vanilla planifolia orchid. It is a mixture of ~ 200 compounds but its characteristic flavour and fragrance primarily come from vanillin. While the importance of its wide usage in flavour and fragrance is well established, there have been limited investigations to evalua...

The use of chemotherapeutic drug paclitaxel (PTX) for the treatment of tumors has several limitations, including multidrug resistance (MDR) and serious adverse reactions. This research aims to co-encapsulate PTX and the chemosensitizer 2-methoxyestradiol (2-ME) into folate-conjugated human serum albumin nanoparticles (FA-HSANPs) to reduce multiple ...

Prostate cancer is one of the high incidences and the most invasive cancer that is also highly resistant to chemotherapy. Currently, several natural products have been considering using as the supplements for anti-cancer therapy. This study aims to identify the potential active anti-cancer ingredients in the bran extracts of the native Thai rice ( ...

A new series of benzofuran derivatives has been designed and synthesized. The structures of the synthesized compounds have been confirmed by the use of 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 2D 1H-1H NOESY NMR, and IR. Anticancer activity is evaluated against Hepatocellular carcinoma (HePG2), mammary gland breast cancer (MCF-7), Epitheliod carcinoma cervix cancer (Hela)...

Baicalin has been widely investigated against different types of malignancies both at the cellular and molecular levels over the past few years. Due to its remarkable anti-proliferative potential in numerous cancer cell lines, it has created immense interest as a potential chemotherapeutic modality compared to other flavonoids. Thus, this review fo...
