The Usage of Oblongifolin C, a Natural Compound from Garcinia yunnanensis Hu, on Treating High Metastatic Cancer


Summary

Yhe present invention to provide a compound, Oblongifolin C, a natural compund isolated from Garcinia yunnanensis Hu, for its effects of anti-migration and anti-invasion against esophageal cancer and its use as anticancer drug against esophageal cancer.


Technology Benefits

In this invention, we found that Oblongifolin C, a natural compound from Garcinia yunnanensis Hu, can inhibit the migration and invasion of esophageal cancer.


Technology Application

Oblongifolin C can be developed as anticancer drug against esophageal cancer.


Detailed Technology Description

We have screened various components using different cancer cells, and found that several polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol (PPAP) compounds had potent cytotoxic effects on human colorectal cancer cell lines without affecting the normal human colon fibroblasts. In this invention, we found that Oblongifolin C can significantly inhibit esophageal cancer cell (ESCC) ECA109 migration and invasion. Thus, Oblongifolin C can be developed as anticancer drug against esophageal cancer.
