Platycodin D inhibits tumor growth by antiangiogenic activity via blocking VEGFR2-mediated signaling pathway.

Luan X1, Gao YG1, Guan YY1, Xu JR1, Lu Q1, Zhao M2, Liu YR1, Liu HJ1, Fang C3, Chen HZ4.
Toxicology and applied pharmacology.Toxicol Appl Pharmacol.2014 Sep 22. pii: S0041-008X(14)00348-2. doi: 10.1016/j.taap.2014.09.009. [Epub ahead of print]
Platycodin D (PD) is an active component mainly isolated from the root of Platycodon grandiflorum. Recent studies proved that PD exhibited inhibitory effect on proliferation, migration, invasion and xenograft growth of diverse cancer cell lines. However, whether PD is suppressive for angiogenesis, a

Enhancement of chlorogenic acid production in hairy roots of Platycodon grandiflorum by over-expression of an Arabidopsis thaliana transcription factor AtPAP1.

Tuan PA1, Kwon do Y2, Lee S3, Arasu MV4, Al-Dhabi NA5, Park NI6, Park SU7.
International journal of molecular sciences.Int J Mol Sci.2014 Aug 22;15(8):14743-52. doi: 10.3390/ijms150814743.
To improve the production of chlorogenic acid (CGA) in hairy roots of Platycodon grandiflorum, we induced over-expression of Arabidopsis thaliana transcription factor production of anthocyanin pigment (AtPAP1) using an Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation system. Twelve hairy root lines

The inhibitory effect of a Platycodon root extract on ultraviolet B-induced pigmentation due to a decrease in Kit expression.

Kasamatsu S1, Hachiya A, Shimotoyodome Y, Kameyama A, Miyauchi Y, Higuchi K, Fujimori T, Ohuchi A, Shibuya Y, Kitahara T.
Journal of natural medicines.J Nat Med.2014 Jul;68(3):643-6. doi: 10.1007/s11418-014-0836-x. Epub 2014 May 6.
The signaling of stem cell factor (SCF) through its receptor Kit is known to play an important role in regulating cutaneous melanogenesis. In the course of UVB-induced pigmentation, the expression of membrane-bound SCF by epidermal keratinocytes is upregulated at an early phase and subsequently acti
