genotoxicity

1. Skimmianine (Chloroxylonine) is a spasmolytic agent. 2. Skimmianine (Chloroxylonine) shows pharmacol. props. similar to 2-(Methylamino)-1-phenyl-1-propanol BCJ45-G.

1. Methyl eugenol (4-allylveratrole) is a natural constituent of the essential oils of a number of plants widely used in foodstuffs as flavouring agents, in view of the carcinogenic potential of ME, the need to check its presence in food products with effective analytical methods. 2. Methyleugenol has insecticidal properties. 3. Methyleugenol can inhibit the production of nitric oxide and decreased the protein expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, it down-regulates the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the ischemic brain as well as in immunostimulated mixed glial cells; indicates that methyleugenol could be useful for the treatment of ischemia inflammation-related diseases. 4. Methyleugenol has cytotoxicity and genotoxicity. 5. Intravenous (i.v.) treatment with methyleugenol (ME) in either anesthetized or conscious rats elicits hypotension, an effect that seems related to an active vascular relaxation rather than withdrawal of sympathetic tone. 6. Methyleugenol has antinociceptive effect on the second phase of formalin-induced pain, may be due to the inhibition of N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor-mediated hyperalgesia via GABA(A) receptors. 7. Methyleugenol has elaxant and antispasmodic actions on guinea-pig isolated ileum.

Isoliquiritin apioside, isolated from Glycyrrhizae radix rhizome, significantly decreases PMA-induced increases in MMP9 activities and suppresses PMA-induced activation of MAPK and NF-κB. Isoliquiritin apioside auppresseses invasiveness and angiogenesis o

Musk tibetine reveals no genotoxicity in the micronucleus test with human lymphocytes and human hepatoma cell lines. Musk tibetene is a nitro musk compound with carcinogenic activity.

Myricetin 3-O-galactoside (Myricetin 3-O-beta-D-galactopyranoside) can inhibit xanthine oxidase (xanthine oxidase; XO) activity, lipid peroxidation and scavenging free radicals. Myricetin 3-O-galactoside has many effects, including cytotoxicity, anti-oxidation, anti-genotoxicity, anti-infectivity, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, and its main effect is to inhibit the synthesis of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). The IC50 of Myricetin 3-O-galactoside inhibited lipid peroxidation was 160 μg mL.

Fumitremorgen B is a mycotoxin, it exhibits a certain degree of genotoxicity, it can cause DNA damage in human lymphocytes; it shows an inhibitory activity on the cell cycle progression of mouse tsFT210 cells in the M phase, with the MIC value of 26.1 mic

Ptaquiloside shows genotoxicity, it also has carcinogenic effects. Ptaquiloside has immunosuppressive effects, it reduces NK cell activities by enhancing metallothionein expression, which is prevented by selenium.

Sigmoidin B is a prenylated flavanone and a selective inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase (5-lipoxygenase). It effectively scavenges DPPH free radicals and exhibits antigenotoxic activity by inhibiting aflatoxin B1-induced genotoxicity, with an IC50 of 18.7 μg mL. Additionally, Sigmoidin B possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
