Bioactivity-guided fractionation of the separate CH2Cl2 extracts from the aerial parts of Peperomia alata and P. trineura yielded seven polyketides: alatanone A [3-hydroxy-2-(5'-phenylpent-4'E-enoyl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one, 1a] and alatanone B
BACKGROUND
Peperomia pellucida is popularly known as coraçãozinho in the Brazilian northeast and is used in the treatment of abscesses, furuncles, and conjunctivitis. Our work aimed to determine the term of the development stages and the species cycle in the four seasons of the year (complete
Chromatographic separation of the CH2Cl2 extract from leaves of Peperomia serpens yielded two chromenes [5-hydroxy-8-(3',7'-dimethylocta-2',6'-dienyl)-2,2,7-trimethyl-2H-1-chromene (1) and 5-hydroxy-8-(3'-methyl-2'-butenyl)-2,2,7-trimethyl-2H-1-chromene-6-carboxylic acid (2)], besides the known
A phytochemical investigation of the leaves and stems of Peperomia obtusifolia (Piperaceae) yielded a new flavone C-diglycoside isoswertisin-4'-methyl-ether-2''α-L-rhamnoside (1), along with four known compounds: isoswertisin-2''α-L-rhamnoside (2), (+)-diayangambin (3), 2-episesalatin (4) and
OBJECTIVE
Peperomin E (PepE), a natural secolignan isolated from the whole plant of Peperomia dindygulensis, has been reported by ourselves and others to display potent anti-cancer effects in many types cancer cells, especially gastric cancer. However, the effects of PepE on the metastasis of
Advanced lung cancer has poor prognosis owing to its low sensitivity to current chemotherapy agents. Therefore, discovery of new therapeutic agents is urgently needed. In this study, we investigated the antitumor effects of peperomin E, a secolignan isolated from Peperomia dindygulensis, a
An extract of leaves and stems of Peperomia villipetiola has been found to contain myristicin (3-methoxy-4,5-methylenedioxy-allylbenzene) and seven chromenes, whose structures are methyl 5-hydroxy-7-methyl-2,2-dimethyl-2H-1-chromene-6-carboxylate (1), methyl
Peperomin E (PepE) is a type of secolignan, a major component of the plant Peperomia dindygulensis. It has been shown to exert anti-inflammatory effects; however, the effects of PepE on human atherosclerosis remain unexplored. In the study, we investigated the role of PepE in high fat diet (HFD)
Compounds extracted from plants can provide an alternative approach to new therapies. They present characteristics such as high chemical diversity, lower cost of production and milder or inexistent side effects compared with conventional treatment. The Brazilian flora represents a vast, largely
