Bioactivity-guided fractionation of the methanol extract from the leaves of Santolina insularis led to the isolation of one new xanthone, (E)-3-(6-[(E)-3-hydroxy-3-oxo-1-propenyl]-9-oxo-9H-xanthen-2-yl)-2-propenoic acid, together with six known flavonoids: hispidulin, nepetin, cirsimaritin,
OBJECTIVE
Identification of plants with anti-inflammatory activity can be successfully based on information gained through knowledge on their traditional use. This is particularly true for biodiversity-rich regions of the world such as the Mediterranean. While such approaches are often single target
Four coumarins were isolated from the EtOAc extract of the flower-tops of Santolina oblongifolia Boiss. (Compositae). They were identified as 7-methoxycoumarin (herniarin) (1), 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin (aesculetin) (2), 6-methoxy-7-glucosidylcoumarin (scopolin) (3), and 6-hydroxy-7-methoxycoumarin
The activity of the Santolina chamaecyparissus methanol extract was tested against the phospholipase A2 (PLA2)-induced mouse paw edema and in vitro inhibition of PLA2 activity. After fractionation, only the dichloromethane extract was active against the PLA2 in vitro test. In addition, it reduced
Santolina corsica Jord. & Fourr. Corsican-Sardinian is an endemism almost present all around Corsica; in Sardinia, it can only be found in Monte Albo (calcareous substratum and poor in nutrients). The aim of our study is to investigate the chemical composition of S. corsica
BACKGROUND
Santolina chamaecyparissus L. (Asteraceae) is an aromatic plant wide spread in the Mediterranean region. It is used in folk medicine for its anti-inflammatory properties.
OBJECTIVE
The effects of S. chamaecyparissus aqueous extract (SCAE) and polyphenolic extract (SCPE) on human
The chemical composition of 18 oil samples of Santolina africana isolated from aerial parts at full flowering, collected in three locations in eastern Algeria was determined by GC(RI), GC/MS and 13C-NMR analysis. The major components were: germacrene D, myrcene, spathulenol,
Santolina species are widely used in traditional medicine in the Mediterranean region for their anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antispasmodic, digestive, and analgesic properties. S. impressa, a Portuguese endemism, is traditionally recognized for its beneficial anti-inflammatory Santolina insularis is a Sardinian endemism that is widely used in traditional medicine. The essential oil was obtained with a yield of 2.7% and is mainly characterized by β-phellandrene (22.6%), myrcene (11.4%) and artemisia ketone (7.6%). The oil significantly reduced NO production without
A group of compounds isolated from the medicinal plant, Santolina oblongifolia, have been investigated for their effects on the release of platelet cyclo-oxygenase metabolite thromboxane A(2) (measured as thromboxane B(2)) from ionophore-stimulated human platelets. These compounds, which are dual
OBJECTIVE
Immune system is involved in the etiology and pathophysiologic mechanisms of inflammation. Medicinal plants are an important source of substances which are claimed to induce non-specific immunomodulatory effects. In view of this and on account of the interleukin (IL)-6's role in
OBJECTIVE
The bioactivities of Santolina corsica Jord. & Fourr. n-hexane (EHS) and methanol (EMS) extracts were evaluated in relation to their chemical profile.
METHODS
EHS and EMS were analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry () and high performance liquid chromatography-diode array
Sesquiterpene lactone compounds have received considerable attention in pharmacological research due to their therapeutic effects including anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activities. In this report, we investigated the effect of arsantin, a sesquiterpene lactone compound present in Artemisia
The genus Santolina is a taxonomically complex group of plant species widely distributed in the Mediterranean flora and used in traditional medicine since ancient times for their biological properties, including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, digestive, and analgesic activities.
