Tumor cells principally exhibit increased mitochondrial transmembrane potential (ΔΨ(m)) and altered metabolic pathways. The therapeutic targeting delivery of anticancer drugs to the mitochondria might improve treatment efficacy. Gallic acid exhibits a variety biological activities, its ester derivatives can induce dysfunction. Four alkyl gallate triphenylphosphonium lipophilic cations were synthesized, each differing in size linker chain at cationic moiety. These selectively cytotoxic toward...

disease is one of the most neglected tropical diseases in world, affecting nearly 15 million people, primarily Latin America. Only two drugs are used for treatment this disease, nifurtimox and benznidazole. These have limited efficacy frequently induce adverse effects, limiting their usefulness. Consequently, new must be found. In study, we demonstrated vitro trypanocidal effects a series four gallic acid derivatives characterized by gallate group linked to triphenylphosphonium (TPP(+))...

Candida albicans biofilms play a key role in denture stomatitis, one of the most common oral pathologies elderly people. Because are highly resistant to antifungals, new pharmacological strategies needed. Aspirin and nitric oxide-donor molecules have both shown antibiofilm effects on C. albicans, making them promising candidates for treatment. In this study, we evaluated antifungal/antibiofilm effect nitric-oxide releasing aspirin (NO-ASA) isolates from stomatitis patients vitro. Disk...

Recurrence and resistance of Candida spp. infections is associated with the ability these microorganisms to present several virulence patterns such as morphogenesis, adhesion, biofilm formation. In search for agents antivirulence activity, essential oils could represent a strategy act against biofilms potentiate antifungal drugs.To evaluate effect Origanum vulgare L. oil (O-EO) fluconazole nystatin.The O-EO was evaluated on ATCC reference strains C. albicans non-albicans species. Minimum...

Candida albicans is the most common human fungal pathogen, and with increase in resistance rates worldwide, it necessary to search for new pharmacological alternatives. Lavandula dentata L. essential oil recognized as having antimicrobial properties. However, its effect against biofilms has been poorly described. C. albicans-related infections involve development of biofilms, which are highly resistant conventional antifungals. In this work, we evaluated antibiofilm albicans. First,...

Indomethacin is a non-selective NSAID used against pain and inflammation. Although cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition considered indomethacin’s primary action mechanism, COX-independent ways are associated with beneficial effects in cancer. In colon cancer cells, the activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) related to increase spermidine/spermine-N1-acetyltransferase-1 (SSAT-1), key enzyme for polyamine degradation, cell cycle arrest. increases SSAT-1 levels lung...

Chemoprevention can be a treatment for potentially malignant lesions (PMLs).

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of deaths in world. Standard drugs currently used for treatment advanced CRC-such as 5-fluorouracil (5FU)-remain unsatisfactory their results due to high toxicity, resistance, and adverse effects. In recent years, mitochondria have become an attractive target therapy higher transmembrane mitochondrial potential. We synthesized gallic acid derivatives linked a ten-carbon aliphatic chain associated with triphenylphosphonium (TPP

No obstante, no se hace abstraccion importantes elementos separan sistematicidad estilos usados por cada uno. Asi, senala Foucault privilegia las condiciones concretas existencia haciendo mayor enfasis elemento historico...
