The use of Guttiferone F, a natural compound from Garcinia Esculenta, in treating human prostate cancer
This invention relates to a chemical entity isolated from natural sources for its therapeutic uses. More particularly, it relates to a compound that is naturally occurring in the plant of Garcinia esculenta and its biological activity of antitumor effects.
Providing a natural compound extracted from Garcinia esculenta for use in treating human prostate cancer
The invention has application in treating human prostate cancer.
This invention have screened various components using different cancer cells, and found that prenylated benzophenones had potent cytotoxic effects on human prostate cancer cell lines. In this invention, we found that Guttiferone F could inhibit the growth of prostate cancer by apoptosis significantly. Together, intratumor administration of Guttiferone F inhibited prostate cancer growth in nude mice. Thus, Guttiferone F can be developed as anticancer drug against prostate cancer.
