Silvestrol is a eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) inhibitor isolated from Agave americana Linn.. Silvestrol induces autophagy and caspase-mediated apoptosis[1][2][3]. | [Definition]
ChEBI: An organic heterotricyclic compound that consists of a 2,3,3a,8b-tetrahydro-H-benzo[b]cyclopenta[d]furan framework substituted by hydroxy groups at positions C-1 and C-8b, a methoxycarbonyl group at C-2, a phen
l group at C-3, a 4-methoxyphenyl group at C-3a, a methoxy group at C-8 and a 1,4-dioxan-2-yloxy group at position C-6 which in turn is substituted by a methoxy group at position 3 and a 1,2-dihydroxyethyl group at position 6. Isolated from Aglaia si
vestris, it exhibits antineoplastic activity. | [Anticancer Research]
It is a natural flavogline compound from the group of cyclopenta[b]benzofurans,extracted from the fruits of Aglaila sylvestre, which shows anticancer activityagainst lung and breast cancers (Shoeb 2006). The plant extract is reported to bepotent against P-388 cells in in vivo experiments. In the hollow fiber in vivo assay,it shows cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent way. It works by altering the cell signal pathways that related to the cell survival as well as angiogenesis and exerts itseffects by inhibiting the translation of mRNA preferentially associated withmalignancy (Balunas and Kinghorn 2005; Cencic et al. 2009). | [in vivo]
Silvestrol (1.5 mg/kg, i.p.) does not adversely affect production of human IgG by xenografted B-lymphocytes in mice. Silvestrol significantly prolongs survival compared to vehicle. There is no such lymphocyte infiltration detected in the spleens of any of the Silvestrol-treated mice, and nor do these animals exhibit any other obvious signs of lymphoma upon necropsy[5]. | [IC 50]
