Two compounds were isolated from the stem of Caesalpinia sappan. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of physical and spectral analysis. They were named as tetraacetylbrazilin and protosappanin A respectively.
Caesalpinia sappan L. (Caesalpiniaceae) has been traditionally used as blood tonic, expectorant, and astringent by boiling with water. Searching for HIV-1 integrase (IN) inhibitors from this plant is a promising approach. The EtOH extract of C. sappan and its isolated compounds were tested for their
Oxidative and nitrative stresses have been established to play a pivotal role in neuroinflammation. During inflammation-mediated neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) are produced by activated microglia,
Microglial activation and resultant neuroinflammatory response are implicated in various brain diseases including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Treatment with anti-neuroinflammatory agents could provide therapeutic benefits for such disorders. Protosappanin A (PTA) is a major
Protosappanin A (PrA), obtained from the traditional Chinese herbal medicine, Caesalpinia sappan L. (Lignum Sappan), possesses a lot of pharmaceutical activities. Typically, it is a potent antioxidant. This study makes an effort to test its protective effects against osteoporosis by
UNASSIGNED
Protosappanin A (PrA) is an effective and major ingredient of Caesalpinia sappan L. The current study was aimed to explore the effect of PrA on atherosclerosis (AS).
UNASSIGNED
Firstly, the experimental model of AS was established in rabbits by two-month feeding of high fat diet. Then,
Protosappanin A (PrA), an immunosuppressive ingredient of the medicinal herb Caesalpinia sappan L, prolongs heart allograft survival in rats, possibly by impairing the function of antigen-presenting cells (APCs). We examined the effects of PrA on the maturation and function of dendritic cells (DCs),
From the MeOH extract of Vietnamese Caesalpinia sappan, a novel biogenetically exclusive benzindenopyran, with a new carbon framework, neoprotosappanin (1), and a new compound, protosappanin A dimethyl acetal (3), were isolated together with protosappanin E-2 (2), neosappanone A (4), and 13
Four homoisoflavonoids, 4-O-methylsappanol (1), protosappanin A (2), brazilin (3) and caeasalpin J (4), isolated from Caesalpinia sappan, were tested for inhibitory activity against Beauveria bassiana. Compound 1 showed activity against this fungus.
Six constituents with neuraminidase (NA) inhibitory activity, namely brazilein, brazilin, protosappanin A, 3-deoxysappanchalcone, sappanchalcone and rhamnetin, were isolated from the hearthwood of Caesalpinia sappan (Leguminosae). Their in vitro anti-influenza virus activities were evaluated with
Protosappanin-A (PrA) and oleanolic acid (OA), which are important effective ingredients isolated from Caesalpinia sappan L., exhibit therapeutic potential in multiple diseases. This study focused on exploring the mechanisms of PrA and OA function in podocyte injury. An in vitro model of podocyte
Protosappanin A as one major and effective ingredient from Caesalpinia sappan L. exhibited antirejection activity obviously in heart-transplanted rat. The present study was designed to screen out the potential target genes of protosappanin A with microarray technology and reveal some molecular
OBJECTIVE
Caesalpinia sappan L., which has been used in oriental medicine as an analgesic and antiinflammatory agent, has shown immunosuppressive activity on acute rejection on rat heart allografts. The present study was designed to investigate the potency of protosappanin A, one major ingredient of
3'-Deoxy-4-O-methylepisappanol, a new 3-benzylchroman derivative, was isolated from Sappan Lignum, together with thirteen known chemical compounds identified as protosappanin A, sappanchalcone, sappanone B, palmitic acid, (+)-(8S,8'S)-bisdihydrosiringenin, brazilein, 3-deoxysappanchalcone,
