Pure β-mangostin (1) was isolated from the stem bark of Garcinia mangostana L. One monoacetate (2) and five O-alkylated β-mangostin derivatives (3-7) were synthesised from β-mangostin. The structures of these compounds were elucidated and determined using spectroscopic techniques such as 1D NMR and
BACKGROUND
The fruit hull of Garcinia mangostana Linn. has been used in traditional medicine for treatment of various inflammatory diseases. Hence, this study aims to investigate the in vitro and in vivo anti-inflammatory effect of β mangostin (βM), a major compound present in Garcinia
OBJECTIVE
β-Mangostin (BM) from Cratoxylum arborescens demonstrated various pharmacological activities such as anticancer and anti-inflammatory. In this study, we aimed to investigate its antiulcer activity against ethanol ulcer model in rats.
METHODS
BM was isolated from C. arborescens. Gastric
Extracts of root bark, stem bark and the latex collected from the green fruits of Garcinia mangostana gave alpha-mangostin, beta-mangostin, gamma-mangostin, garcinone-E, methoxy-beta-mangostin and a new geranylated biphenyl derivative 3-hydroxy-4-geranyl-5-methoxybiphenyl. The latex of G. mangostana
Mangosteen, Garcinia mangostana Linn, is a tree found in South East Asia, and its pericarps have been used as traditional medicine. Phytochemical studies have shown that they contain a variety of secondary metabolites, such as oxygenated and prenylated xanthones. Recent studies revealed that these
