| Brazilian Green Propolis often considered best • Derived from Baccharis dracunulifolia, this type is rich in artepillin C. • It has been widely researched for its anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. -Propolis common researched flavonoids :chrysin, pinocembrin, galangin, pinobanksin(Pinocembrin) -most representative phenolic acids were caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid, and ferulic acid, as well as their derivatives, DMCA and caffeic acid prenyl, benzyl, phenylethyl (CAPE), and cinnamyl esters -One of the most studied active compounds of a poplar-type propolis is caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) -caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), galangin, chrysin, nemorosone, propolin G, artepillin C, cardanol, pinocembrin, pinobanksin, chicoric acid, and phenolic acids (caffeic acid, ferulic acid, and coumaric acid), as well as luteolin, apigenin, myricetin, naringenin, kaempferol, quercetin, polysaccharides, tannins, terpenes, sterols, and aldehydes -content highly variable based on location and extraction Two main factors of interest: 1. affects interstitual fluild pH 2. high concentration raises ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species), while low concentration may reduce ROS - Artepillin-C (major phenolic compounds found in Brazilian green propolis (BGP)) - caffeic acid major source Propolis is chemically diverse (300+ compounds reported) and composition depends on botanical/geographic source. Antibacterial activity is documented in classic literature (often stronger against Gram+). CAPE from propolis has reported preferential tumor cytotoxicity in early landmark work (often cited in antimicrobial paper references) Do not combine with 2DG Pathways: -Propolis compounds (e.g., artepillin C, caffeic acid phenethyl ester [CAPE]) can trigger apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cancer cells. -Propolis has been shown to inhibit NF‑κB activation. -Propolis extracts can cause cell cycle arrest at specific checkpoints (e.g., G0/G1 or G2/M phases). -Enhance the body’s antitumor immune responses, for example by activating natural killer (NK) cells and modulating cytokine profiles. -Note half-life no standard, high variablity of content. BioAv poor water solubility, and low oral bioavailability. Pathways: - high concentration may induce ROS production, while low concentrations mya low it. This may apply to both normal and cancer cells. Normal Cells Example.

| GRP78 (Pgp, BiP or ERp72) is a central regulator of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function due to its roles in protein folding and assembly, targeting misfolded protein for degradation, ER Ca(2+)-binding and controlling the activation of trans-membrane ER stress sensors. -GRP78 protein, a marker for endoplasmic reticulum stress -GRP78’s role as a master regulator of the unfolded protein response (UPR) and cellular stress responses The association of P-gp and inhibition of cell death in cancerous cells has also been reported in several studies including in hepatocellular, colorectal, prostate cancer, and gastric cancer. Although counterintuitive due to its prominent role in cancer resistance, P-gp has been linked to favorable prognosis. ERp72 can promote cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by regulating various signaling pathways, including the PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK pathways. Additionally, ERp72 can also inhibit apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cancer cells, which can contribute to tumor progression. Overexpressed in: Breast, lung colorectal, prostrate, ovarian, pancreatic. -GRP78 is frequently upregulated in a variety of solid tumors and hematological malignancies. -Overexpression of GRP78 in cancer cells is often regarded as a marker of increased ER stress due to the reduced oxygen and nutrient supply typically encountered in the tumor microenvironment. -Elevated GRP78 levels can contribute to tumor cell survival by enhancing the adaptive UPR, allowing cancer cells to cope with therapeutic and metabolic stress. |
