Nimbolide Induces ROS-Regulated Apoptosis and Inhibits Cell Migration in Osteosarcoma.

Int. J. Mol. Sci. 16 , 23405-24, (2015)

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a primary malignant tumor of bone and is most prevalent in children and adolescents. OS is frequently associated with pulmonary metastasis, which is the main cause of OS-related mortality. OS has a poor prognosis and is often unresponsive...

Nimbolide, a constituent of Azadirachta indica, inhibits Plasmodium falciparum in culture.

Southeast Asian J. Trop. Med. Public Health 16(1) , 66-72, (1985)

The terpenoid lactone nimbolide, the structure of which has been unambiguously established, was found to inhibit Plasmodium falciparum in culture with a moderate potency. The EC50 against the parasite line K1 from Thailand was approximately 2.0 microM (0.95 m...

Induction of cell cycle arrest, DNA damage, and apoptosis by nimbolide in human renal cell carcinoma cells.

Tumour Biol. 36(10) , 7539-47, (2015)

Nimbolide is a tetranortriterpenoid isolated from the leaves and flowers of Azadirachta indica which has been shown to exhibit anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-invasive properties in a variety of cancer cells. However, the anti-tumor effec...

Antiproliferative effect on human cancer cell lines after treatment with nimbolide extracted from an edible part of the neem tree (Azadirachta indica).

Phytother Res. 21(3) , 245-50, (2007)

Nimbolide, a triterpenoid extracted from the flowers of the neem tree (Azadirachta indica), was found to have antiproliferative activity against some cancer cell lines. Treatment of cells with 0.5-5.0 microm concentrations of nimbolide resulted in moderate to...
