A group of flavonoids isolated from medicinal plants and which are selective inhibitors of lipoxygenase activity in vitro: sideritoflavone, cirsiliol, hypolaetin-8-O-beta-D-glucoside, hypolaetin, oroxindin, quercetagetin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside, gossypin, hibifolin and gossypetin, besides
The influence of 22 flavonoids was studied on the arachidonic acid metabolism in sonicated sheep platelets. Flavones and flavonols possessing catechol groups inhibited 12-lipoxygenase. Sideritoflavone and quercetagetin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside were more selective than quercetin. Cirsiliol, hypolaetin,
Several extracts of Hyptis verticillata and isolated compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antisecretory, and cytotoxic properties. The aerial parts yielded (R)-5-hydroxypyrrolidin-2-one and essential oil with the main components alpha-pinene, beta-pinene, and thymol.
Results of various projects on Mexican Indian ethnobotany and some of the subsequent pharmacological and phytochemical studies are summarised focusing both on chemical-pharmacological as well as anthropological (ethnopharmacological) aspects of our research. We have identified taste and smell
