A new furostanol saponin, (25S)-26-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-5β-furost-20(22)-en-3β, 15β,26-triol-3-O-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1–4)]-β-d-glucopyranoside, namely, aspacochioside D (1) were isolated from Asparagus cochinchinensis (Lour.) Merr, along with three known saponins, aspacochioside C (2), (25S)-5β-spirostan-3β-yl-O-[O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1–4)]-β-d-glucopyranoside (3), and pseudoprotoneodioscin (4). The structure of 1 was elucidated on the basis of chemical reactions and spectral analysis (IR, GC, ESI-MS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, DEPT, HMBC, HMQC and NOESY). The antiproliferative effects of 1–4 were evaluated in a cytotoxicity assay against the human tumor cell line, A549. Compound 2 (Aspacochioside C) exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against A-549, with an IC50 value of 3.87 μg/mL. 相似文献

The aim of our study is to find functional compounds from natural resources. We focus on plants grown in tropical areas, especially Madagascar and Thailand, because they have unique flora and are expected to contain interesting compounds. We review the functional compounds of the seed kernels of Entada phaseoloides and E. rheedei and their biological activities such as anti-proliferation and melanogenesis inhibitory properties, etc. 相似文献

Twenty-eight samples of mericarps of Perilla frutescens var. frutescens were collected through fieldwork performed in Phongsali and Xieng Khouang provinces in northern Laos. No perilla samples
were collected from Savannakhet province in the south although more than 20 sites were investigated. Perilla plants are mostly
grown mixed with dry-paddy rice by slash-and-burn cultivation in Laos. The most popular local name for perilla mericarps in
the area was “Ma Nga Chan”. Weight of 1,000 grains and hardness of the mericarps were measured, and all mericarps were found
to be large (weight of 1,000 grains around 2 g) and soft (limit load weight under 300 g), which were preferred for culinary
use in Laos. The composition of the essential oils obtained from the herbaceous plants raised from the mericarps was divided
into five types, perillaketone, elemicine plus myristicine, shisofuran, piperitenon, and myristicine, and GC–MS analysis of
these Laotian perilla samples showed that they were similar to those of corresponding types of known Japanese perilla strains.
One of the shisofuran-type perilla contained large amounts of putative α-naginatene, which is likely to be an intermediate
of the biosynthesis of naginataketone. The farmers' indifference to the oil type of the leaf seems to leave Laotian perilla
as a good genetic resource for studies of the biosynthesis of oil compounds. 相似文献

Three new ent-abietanoids, named xerophilusins XIV–XVI, and four known analogues, as well as four known chemical constituents were isolated
from the leaves of Isodon xerophilus. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic studies, and comparison with literature data. In addition, the
cytotoxic activity of the ent-abietanoids against chronic myelogenous leukemia (K562), stomach adenocarcinoma (MKN45), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2)
human cell lines was investigated and no activities were observed. 相似文献

Species identification of five Dendrobium plants was conducted using phylogenetic analysis and the validity of the method was verified. Some Dendrobium plants (Orchidaceae) have been used as herbal medicines but the difficulty in identifying their botanical origin by traditional
methods prevented their full modern utilization. Based on the emerging field of molecular systematics as a powerful classification
tool, a phylogenetic analysis was conducted using sequences of two plastid genes, the maturase-coding gene (matK) and the large subunit of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-coding gene (rbcL), as DNA barcodes for species identification of Dendrobium plants. We investigated five medicinal Dendrobium species, Dendrobium fimbriatum, D. moniliforme, D. nobile, D. pulchellum, and D. tosaense. The phylogenetic trees constructed from matK data successfully distinguished each species from each other. On the other hand, rbcL, as a single-locus barcode, offered less species discriminating power than matK, possibly due to its being present with little variation. When results using matK sequences of D. officinale that was deposited in the DNA database were combined, D. officinale and D. tosaense showed a close genetic relationship, which brought us closer to resolving the question of their taxonomic identity. Identification
of the plant source as well as the uniformity of the chemical components is critical for the quality control of herbal medicines
and it is important that the processed materials be validated. The methods presented here could be applied to the analysis
of processed Dendrobium plants and be a promising tool for the identification of botanical origins of crude drugs. 相似文献

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) plays a key role in the inflammatory processes of atherosclerosis. Jaceosidin isolated
from the methanolic extracts of the aerial parts of Artemisia princeps Pampanini cv. Sajabal was tested for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Jaceosidin inhibited the Cu2+-mediated LDL oxidation with IC50 values of 10.2 μM in the thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) assay as well as the macrophage-mediated LDL oxidation.
The antioxidant activities of jaceosidin were exhibited in the conjugated diene production, relative electrophoretic mobility,
and apoB-100 fragmentation on copper-mediated LDL oxidation. Jaceosidin also inhibited the generation of reactive oxygen species
(ROS) concerning in regulation of NF-κB signaling. And jaceosidin inhibited nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activity, nitric
oxide (NO) production, and suppressed expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced
RAW264.7 macrophages. 相似文献

Abstract
Volatile compounds of Geranium sanguineum and G. robertianum were isolated by hydrodistillation, analyzed in detail by GC and GC/MS and screened for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activity in a microdilution assay. In total, 304 constituents were identified, representing more than 90% of the isolated oils. The volatiles of G. sanguineum have been studied for the first time in this study. The antimicrobial assay showed a strong activity of the G. robertianum oil against Escherichia coli and Aspergillus fumigatus. Micrococcus flavus and A. fumigatus were the most susceptible strains to G. sanguineum oil. 相似文献11.

Purpose
It has been suggested that drug-metabolizing enzymes might play important roles in the development of anti-tuberculosis drug (ATD)-induced maculopapular eruption (MPE), as in ATD-induced hepatitis. We investigated the associations between the genetic polymorphisms of drug-metabolizing enzymes and ATD-induced MPE. 相似文献14.

A new C-alkylated flavonoid (5,7-dihydroxy-3′-(4″-acetoxy-3″-methylbutyl)-3,6,4′-trimethoxyflavone (1), along with two known C-alkylated flavonoids (5,7-dihydroxy-3′-(3-hydroxymethylbutyl)-3,6,4′-trimethoxyflavone (2), 5,7,4′-trihydroxy-3′-(3-hyroxymethylbutyl)-3,6-dimethoxyflavone (3) and two new source C-alkylated flavonoids (5,7-dihydroxy-3′-(2-hydroxy-3-methyl-3-butenyl)-3,6,4′-trimethoxyflavone (4), 5,7,4′-trihydroxy-3,6-dimethoxy-3′-isoprenyl-flavone (5) were isolated from the aerial parts of Dodonaea viscosa. The structures of all compounds were established on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The isolated
compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory effect on urease and α-chymotrypsin enzyme. All the compounds (1–5) exhibited mild inhibition against urease but remained recessive in case of α-chymotrypsin. 相似文献

Several new N,N-dialkyl substituted chalcones (chalconoids or benzylideneacetophenones) have been synthesized via the condensation of corresponding N,N-dialkylbenzaldehyde with various aryl methyl ketones. All the chalcones have been synthesized from readily available and cheap starting materials under environmentally benign conditions in very high yields without work up and column chromatographic purification. Synthesized compounds have been tested for their biological activity against pathogenic microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Mycobacterium smegmatis. Anti-cancer activity of these compounds has also been tested against multiple myeloma (RPMI-8226) and human mammary adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) cell lines. The most hydrophilic molecules 23 and 24 showed very good anti-cancer activity against MCF-7 cell lines at low micro-molar concentrations. All the compounds have also been evaluated for their activity against Beta-secretase 1 enzyme. One of the synthesized compounds showed Beta-secretase 1 enzyme inhibition activity at micro-molar concentration. 相似文献

Bidens pilosa L. var. radiata Scherff (BP) is a plant used as a traditional folk medicine. BP, cultivated with only green manure on Miyako Island, Okinawa prefecture,
was processed to powder and is referred to as MMBP. We have reported that MMBP has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-allergy
properties. In this study, we investigated the effects of MMBP on several experimental gastric lesions induced by HCl/EtOH,
a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, or cold-restraint stress, comparing these results with those of rutin or anti-ulcerogenic
drugs (cimetidine or sucralfate) based on the lesion index and hemorrhage from the gastric lesions. Orally administered MMBP
prevented the progression of the gastric lesions. Moreover, treatment with MMBP, rutin, or sucralfate, which had potent antioxidative
activity, inhibited increases in the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in the gastric mucosal lesions.
The inhibition of the gastric mucosal TBARS content by MMBP may have been due to the antioxidant effects of MMBP. These results
indicate that MMBP prevents the progression of acute gastric mucosal lesions, possibly by suppressing oxidative stress in
the gastric mucosa. 相似文献

The gels of Aloe species contain immunomodulatory components such as aloctin A and acemannan. Most studies on these gels were performed in
in vitro cell culture systems. Although several studies examined their immunomodulatory activity in vivo, the route of administration was intraperitoneal or intramuscular. Here, we evaluated the in vivo immunomodulatory activity of processed Aloe vera gel (PAG) in mice. Oral administration of PAG significantly reduced the growth of C. albicans in the spleen and kidney following intravenous injection of C. albicans in normal mice. PAG administration also reduced the growth of C. albicans in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. PAG administration did not increase ovalbumin (OVA)-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte
(CTL) generation in normal mice, but did increase it in high-fat-diet induced diabetic mice. These findings provide the first
clear evidence for the immunomodulatory activity of orally administered Aloe vera gel. 相似文献
