Two new 2-arylbenzofurans, glycybenzofuran (1) and cyclolicocoumarone (2), together with 10 known flavonoids including licocoumarone (3), glycyrrhisoflavone (4), glisoflavone (5), cycloglycyrrhisoflavone (6), isoliquiritigenin (7), licoflavone A (8), apigenin (9), isokaempferide (10), glycycoumarin
Compounds (1-6) isolated from the CH(2)Cl(2) extract of Glycyrrhiza inflata and semisynthetic licochalcone A derivatives (7-14) were evaluated for their protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitory activities. Licochalcones A (4) and E (6), each with an allyl group at position 5 in the B ring
For production of genistein from N-acetylcysteamine-attached p-coumarate (p-coumaroyl-NAC) supplemented to the medium, a chalcone synthase (CHS) gene from Glycyrrhiza echinata, a chalcone isomerase (CHI) gene from Pueraria lobata, and an isoflavone synthase (IFS) gene from G. echinata were placed
Five different flavonoids were isolated from licorice after multistep chromatographic fractionation. The aim was to identify and characterize active components in licorice responsible for antibrowning activities and to seek new tyrosinase inhibitors for applications as antibrowning and depigmenting
Chalcones, the central precursor of flavonoids, are synthesized exclusively in plants from tyrosine and phenylalanine via the sequential reaction of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), cinnamate-4-hydroxylase (C4H), 4-coumarate:coenzyme A ligase (4CL) and chalcone synthase (CHS). Chalcones are
In plants, chalcones are precursors for a large number of flavonoid-derived plant natural products and are converted to flavanones by chalcone isomerase or nonenzymatically. Chalcones are synthesized from tyrosine and phenylalanine via the phenylpropanoid pathway involving phenylalanine ammonia
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene alterations are associated with sensitization to tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as gefitinib in lung cancer. Some patients suffering from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have difficulty in treating the cancer due to resistance acquired Protein kinases play an indispensable role in signaling pathways that regulate tumor cell functions, which represent potent therapeutic targets in cancers. Dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A) as a serine/threonine kinase has recently been reported to be upregulated
Licorice botanicals are produced from the roots of Glycyrrhiza species (Fabaceae), encompassing metabolites of both plant and rhizobial origin. The composition in both primary and secondary metabolites (1°/2°Ms) reflects the physiologic state of the plant at harvest. Interestingly, the relative
BACKGROUND
Fuzi, the processed lateral root of Aconitum carmichaelii Debeaux, is a traditional Chinese medicine used for its analgesic, antipyretic, anti-rheumatoid arthritis and anti-inflammation effects; however, it is also well known for its toxicity. Gancao, the root of Glycyrrhiza uralensis
