The metabolism and action of trans-anethole (anethole) and the estrogen-like activity of the compound and its metabolites were studied in freshly isolated rat hepatocytes and cultured MCF-7 human breast cancer cells, respectively. The incubation of hepatocytes with anethole (0.25-2.0mM) caused

p-Methoxycinnamic acid (p-MCA) is a cinnamic acid derivative that shows various pharmacologic actions such as hepatoprotective and antihyperglycemic activities. The present study was to elucidate the mechanisms by which p-MCA increases [Ca²⁺]i and insulin secretion in INS-1 cells. p-MCA (100
This study investigated the effect of p-methoxycinnamic acid (p-MCA) on plasma glucose and insulin concentrations in normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. In both fasting and glucose-loading conditions, an oral administration of p-MCA (40-100 mg/kg) significantly decreased plasma glucose and also
This study completes the spectroscopic basis for a novel oligosaccharide microanalytical method, wherein a derivatization sequence provides monosaccharide subunits bearing two types of exciton-coupling chromophore groups ("bichromophoric") for circular dichroic spectroscopy, namely 4-bromobenzoate (lambda max 245 nm) and 4-methoxycinnamate (lambda
