Possible antiinflammatory effects of eudesmin were examined by assessing the effects on tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha production and lymphocyte proliferation as well as cytotoxicity against murine and human macrophages. The compound significantly inhibited TNF-alpha production by
BACKGROUND
Limonoids possess broad range of biological activities, including antitumour, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, etc. Eudesmin (EDN) is a type of limonoid which also possesses various activities. However, there is no report on the antitumour lung cancer (LC) activities of this
Eudesmin has been reported to possess diverse therapeutic effects, including anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial activities. However, its molecular action has not been implicated in metabolic disease. In this study, we show that treatment of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with eudesmin
The present study focuses on eudesmin (bicyclic lignan, 0.15 % of dry leaves) and diphyllin (arylnaphthalene lignan, 0.1 % of dry roots), both isolated from H. perforatum Kar. et Kir, a Rutaceae species endemic to Uzbekistan. We first compared their specificity for cancer cells with those of
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a head and neck epithelial malignancy with high prevalence and represents a significant disease burden. Eudesmin is a natural lignin that has been reported to exhibit antitumor effect on lung cancer. However, the effect of eudesmin on NPC has not been investigated.
Two lignans were isolated from the heartwood of Pterocarpus santalinus by activity-guided fractionation and investigated for their biological properties and molecular mechanism of action. On the basis of their spectroscopic data, these compounds were identified as savinin (1) and calocedrin (2),
The chemical composition of the aerial parts of the Cape Verdean endemic shrub Artemisia gorgonum Webb (Asteraceae) was careful investigated, which led to the isolation and identification of six known furfuran lignans: eudesmin (1), magnolin (2), epimagnolin A (3), aschantin (4), kobusin (5),
Twenty-one non-anthraquinones constituents were isolated for the first time from an ethanol extract of the roots of Knoxia valerianoides by using a combination of various chromatographic techniques including column chromatography over silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, and reversed-phase HPLC. Their
Two new lignans, pseuderesinol (1), pseuderanoside (2) and a new triterpene, pseuderanic acid (3) were isolated from the dried root of Pseuderanthemum carruthersii (SEEM.) GUILL. var. atropurpureum (BULL.) FOSB. (Acanthaceae), together with ten known compounds, including five lignans, (+)-eudesmin
