Anti-cancer mechanisms of linalool and 1,8-cineole in non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells

Abstract: Linalool and 1,8-cineole are plant-derived isoprenoids with anticancer activities in lung cancer cells, nevertheless, the cellular and molecular mechanisms of action remain poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to determine the anticancer mechanisms of action of linalool and 1,8-cineole in lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells. Linalool (0–2.0 mM) and 1,8-cineole (0–8.0 mM) inhibited cell proliferation by inducing G0/G1 and/or G2/M cell cycle arrest without affecting cell viability of normal lun… Show more

“…Eucalyptol (1,8-cineole) was the main compound identified in Turnera diffusa essential oils, in concentrations up to 17.20%. This compound is a cyclic-ether monoterpene also found in several plants such as eucalyptus, rosemary, sage, bay, cinnamon, and tea [65]. In addition, this compound has been reported for its pharmacological properties, including analgesic [66], insecticidal [67], sedative [68], antioxidant [69], anti-inflammatory [70,71], bactericidal [72], fungicidal [73], hypolipidemic [74], and anticancer activities [75].…”
