1-Hydroxyoctadecane (OctadecanolOctadecanol) is a fatty alcohol present in human and is normally incorporated into plasmalogen lipids. Sjogren-Larsson syndrome is defined by the triad of ichthyosis, mental retardation, and spasticity, and patients accumulate fatty alcohols such as Octadenol in the plasma and cultured fibroblasts.

Epifriedelanol (Epifriedelinol) suppresses adriamycin-induced cellular senescence, replicative senescence in human fibroblasts (HDFs) and HUVECs. Because of Epifriedelanol can reduce cellular senescence in human primary cells, it may be used to develop dietary supplements or cosmetics that modulate tissue aging or aging-associated diseases.

Isosaponarin increases collagen synthesis in human fibroblasts, causes by up-regulated TbetaR-II and P4H production.

Regaloside I is the monomeric component in lily. Regaloside I could be the main constituent in protecting human dermal fibroblasts from UVA-induced morphological changes [1].

3,3′-Bisdemethylpinoresinol, a natural lignin derivative, exhibits MMP-1 inhibitory activity in UVA-irradiated human dermal fibroblasts and can be isolated from the seeds of Morinda citrifolia [1].

Capsorubin is a carotenoid with a variety of biological activities. capsorubin inhibited lipid peroxidation induced by 2,2′-azino(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) (AMVN) at a concentration of 167 μM. capsorubin (1 μM) reduced uvb-induced DNA strand breaks and apoptosis in human dermal fibroblasts. formation. It also inhibited the activation of ebvirus early antigen (EBV-EA) induced by 12-carnosine 13-acetate fobo in Raji cells.

Nemorosone is a polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol (PPAP) originally isolated from C. rosea that has antiproliferative properties.1 Nemorosone inhibits growth of NB69, Kelly, SK-N-AS, and LAN-1 neuroblastoma cells (IC50s = 3.1-6.3 μM), including several drug-resistant clones, but not MRC-5 human embryonic fibroblasts (IC50 = >40 μM).2 It increases DNA fragmentation in LAN-1 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and decreases N-Myc protein levels and phosphorylation of ERK1/2 by MEK1/2. Nemorosone also inhibits growth of Capan-1, AsPC-1, and MIA-PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells (IC50s = 4.5-5.0 μM following a 72-hour treatment) but not human dermal and foreskin fibroblasts (IC50s = >35 μM).1 It induces apoptosis, abolishes the mitochondrial membrane potential, and increases cytosolic calcium concentration in pancreatic cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. Nemorosone activates the caspase cascade in a dose-dependent manner and inhibits cell cycle progression, increasing the proportion of cells in the G0/G1 phase, in both neuroblastoma and pancreatic cancer cells.1,2 Nemorosone (50 mg/kg, i.p., per day) also reduces tumor growth in an MIA-PaCa-2 mouse xenograft model.3References1.

Addition of the Rhamnose (6-Deoxy-L-mannose)-rich polysaccharide, RROP-1, to normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs) and human endothelial cells produced a dose-dependent stimulation of the calcium-signaling pathway, inducing fast and transient increases in Ca2 influx and intracellular free Ca2 level.

Dieckol, a rhizomycin found in some brown algae species, has antimicrobial, anticancer, antioxidant, antiaging, antidiabetic, and neuroprotective effects, ameliorates acute hearing loss, and inhibits cell proliferation through cell cycle arrest in human tracheal fibroblasts via Hs680.Tr.

Dracorhodin perchlorate inhibits cell growth, and induces apoptosis in fibroblasts in a dose-and time-dependent manner, arresting cell cycle at G1 phase, may as a candidate for anti-breast cancer. Dracorhodin perchlorate can inhibit high glucose-induced serum and glucocorticoid induced protein kinase 1 (SGK1) and fibronectin(FN) expression in human mesangial cells, and this may be part of the mechanism of preventing and treating renal fibrosis of DN.

Concanavalin A is a plant lectin that is a T cell mitogen. It induces apoptosis in human fibroblasts.
