Antitumor effects of curcin from seeds of Jatropha curcas. (1/68)
AIM: To study the antitumor effects of curcin from Jatropha curcas. METHODS: Antitumor activity of curcin was tested by MTT assay. The N-glycosidase activity of curcin was determined by characterization of R-fragment in gel. A cell-free system, rabbit reticulocyte lysate, was introduced to quantify the inhibitory activity of curcin on protein biosynthesis. RESULTS: The curcin had a powerful inhibitory action upon protein synthesis in reticulocyte lysate with an IC50 (95 % confidence limits) value of 0.19 (0.11-0.27) nmol/L. The IC50 (95 % confidence limits) of curcin on SGC-7901, Sp2/0, and human hepatoma was 0.23 (0.15-0.32) mg/L, 0.66 (0.35-0.97) mg/L, 3.16 (2.74-3.58) mg/L, respectively. Curcin was found to have no toxic to Hela cells and normal cells (MRC). After the rRNA of ribosome was treated with curcin and aniline at acidic condition, a cleaved R-fragment of approximately 450 nt appeared, but this fragment did not occur after treatment with curcin only. A comparison of the amino acid sequences of curcin, ricin A-chain and trichosanthin revealed that there were relatively high similarities among them. The percentages of homology between curcin and ricin A chain, between curcin and trichosanthin were found to be 54 % and 57 % respectively. Especially, the conserved residues forming the active sites of the A chain of ricin and trichosanthin occurred in curcin. CONCLUSION: Curcin has an obvious antitumor effect and its mechanisms are related to the N-glycosidase activity. (+info)Jatrophenone, a novel macrocyclic bioactive diterpene from Jatropha gossypifolia. (2/68)
A novel macrocyclic diterpene, jatrophenone, has been isolated from the whole plant of Jatropha gossypifolia. The structure of the compound was established by detailed studies of its one- and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) NMR spectra. The compound possesses significant antibacterial activity. (+info)New lathyrane and podocarpane diterpenoids from Jatropha curcas. (3/68)
Chemical investigation on Jatropha curcas resulted in the isolation of twenty constituents among which four diterpenoids were unknown and six compounds, tetradecyl-(E)-ferulate, 3-O-(Z)-coumaroyl oleanolic acid, heudelotinone, epi-isojatrogrossidione, 2alpha-hydroxy-epi-isojatrogrossidione, and 2-methyanthraquinone had not been reported earlier from this species. The structures of the new compounds were established by extensive studies of their 1D- and 2D-NMR spectra. (+info)Anti-metastatic effects of curcusone B, a diterpene from Jatropha curcas. (4/68)
A new approach to cancer therapy in recent years has been to target the metastatic process. The anti-metastatic potential of curcusone B, a diterpene isolated from Jatropha curcas Linn. (Euphorbiaceae), a herbal plant that has been used in traditional folk medicine in many tropical countries, was investigated against 4 human cancer cell lines. Treatment with non-cytotoxic doses of curcusone B resulted in a strong reduction of in vitro invasion, motility and secretion of matrix-metalloproteinases (MMP) of the cancer cells, whereas the ability to adhere to a Matrigel-coated surface was variably sensitive to curcusone B treatment. Curcusone B, thus, effectively suppresses the metastatic processes at doses that are non-toxic to cells, which may be of therapeutic benefit for the treatment of metastatic cancers. (+info)Expression of a ribosome inactivating protein (curcin 2) in Jatropha curcas is induced by stress. (5/68)
The open reading frame (ORF) encoding curcin 2 was cloned from total genomic and cDNA of Jatropha curcas leaves, which were treated by drought, temperature stress and fungal infection, by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR amplification. The ORF has 927 bp that encodes a precursor protein of 309 amino acid residues. There are high similarities with curcin and the conserved domain of ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs). Antiserum to curcin recognized one band of 32 kDa on Western blot of the leaves treated by temperature stresses at 4 degree C and 50 degree C and by fungal infections of Pestalotia funerea, Curvularia lunata (Walk) Boed, Gibberelle zeae (Schw.) Petch. Two bands of 32 kDa and 65 kDa were recognized on Western blot of the leaves treated by 10--40 percent polyethylene glycol (PEG). In addition, the 32 kDa band is nearly the molecular weight of curcin 2. This finding suggests that the protein of 32 kDa should be related to curcin 2. The presence of this protein molecular marker under stresses may provide an experimental foundation to study the stress proteins in J. curcas. (+info)Quantitative determination of jatrophone in "cachaca" prepared with Jatropha elliptica. (6/68)
A method for sample preparation and analysis by high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV) was developed for analysis of jatrophone in "cachaca" prepared with Jatropha elliptica, administered orally, employed in Brazil for the treatment of venomous snake bites. The linearity, accuracy, precision of the procedure was evaluated. Analytical curve for jatrophone was linear in the range of 16.24-81.20 microg ml(-1). The recovery of the jatrophone in the samples analyzed was 98.99-99.89%. The percent coefficient of variation for the quantitative analysis of the "cachaca" in the analyses was under 2%. (+info)Expression, purification and anti-tumor activity of curcin. (7/68)
Curcin, purified from the seeds of Jatropha curcas, can be used as a cell-killing agent. Understanding the anti-tumor activity of the recombinant protein of curcin is important for its application in clinical medicine. The segment encoding the mature protein of curcin was inserted into Escherichia coli strain M15, and the recombinant strain was induced to express by isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside at a concentration of 0.5 mM. The recombinant protein was expressed in the form of inclusion bodies and purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The target protein was incubated with the tumor cells at different concentrations for different times and the results demonstrated that the target protein could inhibit the growth of tumor cells (NCL-H446, SGC-7901 and S180) at 5 microg/ml. (+info)Aquaporin JcPIP2 is involved in drought responses in Jatropha curcas. (8/68)
Water channel proteins, aquaporins, play fundamental roles in transmembrane water movements in plants. A new full-length cDNA encoding aquaporin was isolated from the seedlings of Jatropha curcas. The gene of the plasma membrane intrinsic protein (PIP) from J. curcas (JcPIP2) contained an 843 bp open reading frame encoding a protein of 280 amino acids. The amino acid sequence showed 94% identity with Ricinus communis PIP. Injection of JcPIP2 complementary RNA into Xenopus oocytes increased 10-fold the osmotic water permeability of the oocytes. Immunodetection of JcPIP2 with anti-JcPIP2 antibody indicated that this protein is ubiquitously located in all tested tissues of the plant. To investigate the relationship between aquaporins and drought resistance in J. curcas, the abundance of JcPIP2 was examined in seedlings of two J. curcas populations, GaoYou CSC63 and YanBian S1, under water deficit with PEG6000. Under field conditions, those two populations, GaoYou CSC63 was resistant to water deficit, but YanBian S1 was sensitive to water deprivation. With the increasing degree of drought stress, JcPIP2 level increased in seedlings of GaoYou CSC63, whereas there was no significant change in seedlings of YanBian S1. Compared with YanBian S1, GaoYou CSC63 also showed higher root hydraulic conductivity and lower decreasing trend in the seedlings under water deficit. These results indicated that JcPIP2 probably played a role in drought resistance in J. curcas. (+info)I am not aware of a specific medical definition for "Jatropha." Jatropha is a genus of plants in the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae. Some species of Jatropha are used in traditional medicine in various parts of the world, but there is no widely accepted or established medical definition for the term.
In a broader sense, if you're referring to a medical aspect related to Jatropha plants, it might be about the pharmacological properties, toxicity, or potential uses of certain species in traditional medicine. For instance, Jatropha curcas, one of the most commonly known species, has been used in traditional medicine for treating various conditions such as wounds, diarrhea, and skin diseases. However, it also contains toxic compounds that can cause adverse effects if not properly prepared or administered.
If you're looking for specific pharmacological or medicinal information about Jatropha, I would recommend consulting scientific literature or medical resources related to the particular species and its traditional or modern uses.
Biofuels are defined as fuels derived from organic materials such as plants, algae, and animal waste. These fuels can be produced through various processes, including fermentation, esterification, and transesterification. The most common types of biofuels include biodiesel, ethanol, and biogas.
Biodiesel is a type of fuel that is produced from vegetable oils or animal fats through a process called transesterification. It can be used in diesel engines with little or no modification and can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional fossil fuels.
Ethanol is a type of alcohol that is produced through the fermentation of sugars found in crops such as corn, sugarcane, and switchgrass. It is typically blended with gasoline to create a fuel known as E85, which contains 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline.
Biogas is a type of fuel that is produced through the anaerobic digestion of organic materials such as food waste, sewage sludge, and agricultural waste. It is composed primarily of methane and carbon dioxide and can be used to generate electricity or heat.
Overall, biofuels offer a renewable and more sustainable alternative to traditional fossil fuels, helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and decrease dependence on non-renewable resources.
Medical definitions generally do not include plant oils as a specific term. However, in a biological or biochemical context, plant oils, also known as vegetable oils, are defined as lipid extracts derived from various parts of plants such as seeds, fruits, and leaves. They mainly consist of triglycerides, which are esters of glycerol and three fatty acids. The composition of fatty acids can vary between different plant sources, leading to a range of physical and chemical properties that make plant oils useful for various applications in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries. Some common examples of plant oils include olive oil, coconut oil, sunflower oil, and jojoba oil.
"Manihot" is a botanical term that refers to a genus of plants in the Euphorbiaceae family, also known as the spurge family. The most well-known species in this genus is Manihot esculenta, which is commonly called cassava or yuca. Cassava is a staple food crop in many tropical and subtropical regions of the world, providing carbohydrates and calories for millions of people.
The roots of the cassava plant are rich in starch and can be eaten after being cooked or processed to remove toxic compounds. Cassava is an important source of dietary energy in many parts of Africa, Latin America, and Asia. In addition to its use as a food crop, some species of Manihot have also been used in traditional medicine for various purposes, although more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
