Abstract: The article represents the results of research of
antitumor activity of different structural types of plant flavonoids
extracted by authors from Polygonum L. plants in commercial
reserves at the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan. For the first
time ever the results comparative research of antitumor activity of
plant flavonoids of different structural groups and their synthetic
derivatives have been represented. The results of determination of
toxicity of flavonoids in single parenteral infusion conditions have
been represented. Experimental substantiation of possible
mechanisms of antiproliferative and cytotoxic action of flavonoids
has been suggested. The perspectives of usage of plant flavonoids as
medications and creation of effective dosage forms of antitumor
medicines on their basis have been substantiated.
Abstract: The paper presents a new drugs delivery system, based on the thin film technology. As a model antitumor drug, highly toxic doxorubicin is chosen. The system is based on the technology of obtaining zinc oxide composite of doxorubicin by deposition of nanosize ZnO films on the surface of doxorubicin coating on glass substrate using DC magnetron sputtering of zinc targets in Ar:O2 medium at room temperature. For doxorubicin zinc oxide compositions in the form of coatings and gels with 180-200nm thick ZnO films, higher (by a factor 2) in vivo (ascitic Ehrlich's carcinoma) antitumor activity is observed at low doses of doxorubicin in comparison with that of the initial preparation at therapeutic doses. The vector character of the doxorubicin zinc oxide composite transport to tumor tissues ensures the increase in antitumor activity as well as decrease of toxicity in comparison with the initial drug.
Abstract: In article the data of chronic toxicity for pre-clinical
researches of Ramon preparation is described. Ramon effects to
hormone system and gastrointestinal tract; local irritative effect,
allergic, pyrogenic properties and reaction to the immune system
were studied.
Abstract: In article the data of acute toxicity for pre-clinical
researches of Ramon preparation is described. Ramon effects to
clinical characteristics of blood, cardio-vascular system, hepatotoxic
and diuretic effects were studied.
Abstract: The inhibition effect of brazilin to human bladder
tumor cell line T24 in vitro and in vivo was studied. The results of the
in vitro experiments showed that brazilin has strong inhibition activity
on the target cells. The inhibition ratio of 100 μg/mL brazilin and 100
μg/mL mitomycin to the target cells was 90.90 % and 63.24 %
respectively, which showed that brazilin has higher inhibition activity
than mitomycin under the same concentration. Brazilin could induce
cell apoptosis in T24 cells. Significant antitumor activity of brazilin
was also showed in the animals experiments. The life extention rate of
200 mg/mL, 300 mg/kg, and 400 mg/kg brazilin intraperitoneally
injected into Balb/c-nu-nu nude mice that with human bladder cancer
were 51.50 %, 56.90 %, and 58.42 %（P
Abstract: In article the data of pre-clinical researches of Ramon
preparation is described. Antitumor activity of Ramon has been
studied on 19 strains of transplantated tumors of different
hystogenesis.
Abstract: pH-sensitive drug targeting using nanoparticles for
cancer chemotherapy have been spotlighted in recent decades. Graft
copolymer composed of poly (L-histidine) (PHS) and dextran
(DexPHS) was synthesized and pH-sensitive nanoparticles were
fabricated for pH-responsive drug delivery of doxorubicin (DOX).
Nanoparticles of DexPHS showed pH-sensitive changes in particle
sizes and drug release behavior, i.e. particle sizes and drug release rate
were increased at acidic pH, indicating that DexPHS nanoparticles
have pH-sensitive drug delivery potentials. Antitumor activity of
DOX-incorporated DexPHS nanoparticles were studied using CT26
colorectal carcinoma cells. Results indicated that fluorescence
intensity was higher at acidic pH than basic pH. These results
indicated that DexPHS nanoparticles have pH-responsive drug
targeting.
Abstract: The potential of antioxidant activities of the plant
extract Gynura procumbens, Achyranthes aspera and Polygenum
tomentosum were studied by using 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl
(DPPH) .Antioxidant activity was qualitatively and quantitatively
determined. In this analysis , Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) was used as
the standard .The antioxidant activities were observed all three plant
extracts and the EC50 values of G procumbens A.aspera and
P.tomemtosum were 13.7 μg /ml,14.37 μg /ml and 14.35 μg /ml.
Among these plants, G.procumbens is more potent antioxidant
activity then others. Antitumor activities were found with A.aspera
(s2) extracts in the dose of 100ppm in carrot disks and G.procumbens
(s1) and P.tomentosum (s3) in the dose of 1000 ppm. Therefore, these
herbal plants are used in traditional medicines.
