Pulse pressure correlates in humans with a proscillaridin A immunoreactive compound.

Hypertension 27(5) , 1073-8, (1996)

Endogenous digitalis-like factors in humans are presumably cardenolides and bufadienolides. To test whether bufadienolide-like substances may circulate in human blood, we used antibodies from rabbits against the bufadienolide proscillaridin A to measure the c...

Cytotoxic effects of cardiac glycosides in colon cancer cells, alone and in combination with standard chemotherapeutic drugs.

J. Nat. Prod. 72 , 1969-74, (2009)

Cardiac glycosides have been reported to exhibit cytotoxic activity against several different cancer types, but studies against colorectal cancer are lacking. In a screening procedure aimed at identifying natural products with activity against colon cancer, s...

Role of endogenous cardiac glycosides in the spontaneously hypertensive rat--antagonism by active immunization.

Am. J. Hypertens. 9(1) , 81-5, (1996)

The effects of simultaneous active immunization against two cardiac glycoside drugs, digoxin and proscillaridin, have been examined in young spontaneously hypertensive and Wistar-Kyoto rats. Control animals were immunized with protein carrier only. Animals we...

Specific anti-digoxin Fab fragments: an available antidote for proscillaridin and scilliroside poisoning?

Hum. Exp. Toxicol. 9(3) , 191-3, (1990)

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the capacity of specific anti-digoxin Fab fragments to bind to and neutralize scilliroside and proscillaridin in acute poisoning. Apparent affinity constants were determined with values of 2.6 10(8)M-1 for scillirosid...

Studies on cardiac ingredients of plants. IX. Chemical transformation of proscillaridin by utilizing its 1,4-cycloadducts as key compounds and biological activities of their derivatives.

Chem. Pharm. Bull. 40(2) , 327-32, (1992)

Three aromatic compounds (2-4) possessing a carbomethoxyl group or a dimethoxyphthaloyl group, prepared by the Diels-Alder reaction of the cardiac glycoside, proscillaridin (1), with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and methyl propiolate, were transformed into...

Proscillaridin A immunoreactivity: its purification, transport in blood by a specific binding protein and its correlation with blood pressure.

Clin. Exp. Hypertens. 20(5-6) , 593-9, (1998)

A material crossreacting with antibodies against the bufadienolide proscillaridin A and inhibiting the sodium pump was found in human blood plasma. The concentration of the material with a retention time similar to ouabain in a reversed phase HPLC correlated ...

Cardiac glycoside-induced elevation of intracellular Na+ ion concentration in human erythrocytes studied by 23Na NMR spectroscopy: relationship between inotropy speed and elevation rate of intracellular Na+ ion concentration.

Biol. Pharm. Bull. 16(4) , 431-3, (1993)

Elevation of intracellular sodium ion concentration in human erythrocyte induced by the cardiac glycoside, proscillaridin, and its four derivatives was measured using 23Na NMR spectrometry. In this examination, there was a significant correlation between the ...

The bioavailability of methylepoxyproscillaridin (P35): a new semisynthetic cardiac glycoside.

Int. J. Clin. Pharmacol. Ther. Toxicol. 26(6) , 297-9, (1988)

The pharmacokinetic data of methylepoxyproscillaridin (3'-methyl-4'-5'-epoxyproscillaridin) (P35) after 1 mg i.v. or oral administration in two different galenic preparations (hard and soft gelatin capsules) in randomized succession were studied in 9 healthy ...

[Studies on cardiac ingredients of plants. VIII. Preparation of nitrates of proscillaridin and their pharmacological activities].

Yakugaku Zasshi 111(8) , 436-44, (1991)

To reduce the vascular contracting effect of the cardiac glycoside, proscillaridin (1), all kinds of its nitrates were prepared by utilizing effectively an isopropylidene function as a protective group. The pharmacological activities of proscillaridin nitrate...

Inhibition of DNA topoisomerases I and II by G3 PAMAM-NH2 dendrimer-modified digoxin and proscillaridin A conjugates in a cell free system.

Acta Pol. Pharm. 67(6) , 630-4, (2010)

Two modified glycosides--digoxin and proscillaridin A conjugated to a generation 3 of polyamidoamine dendrimer (G3 PAMAM-NH2) were evaluated as DNA topoisomerase II inhibitors. The ability of these compounds (PAMAM-Dig and PAMAM-Prosc) to inhibit topoisomeras...
