Colchicine and demecolcine were determined in raw and dried leaves, stems, mother and daughter corms of Colchicum autumnale L. in four stages of its ontogenesis. The colchicine content in raw material varies during plant growth. The content of both alkaloids decreases with drying. The HPLC method
Microsomal preparations from immature seeds of Colchicum autumnale L. catalyse the ring expansion reaction of O-methylandrocymbine to demecolcine in the presence of NADPH and O2. In addition evidence is given for further transformation of demecolcine to colchicine in the presence of acetyl-CoA and
In our continuing attempt to investigate Jordanian Colchicum species as a potential and viable source of colchicinoids; the distributions of the most interesting colchicinoid alkaloids (-)-demecolcine and (-)-colchicine in different plant parts of wildly growing C. crocifolium Boiss., C. ritchii R.
The distributions of the alkaloids colchicine, 2-demethylcolchicine, 3-demethylcolchicine, demecolcine, 2-demethyldemecolcine, and 3-demethyldemecolcine in the corms, stems, leaves, flowers, and seeds of COLCHICUM CILICICUM were analysed by HPLC. In addition, the alkaloids cornigerine, N-formyl-
A new colchicinoid from Colchicum crocifolium Boiss. (Colchicaceae) was isolated and identified as N,N-dimethyl-N-deacetyl-(-)-cornigerine (5), along with four known compounds, but new to the species: (-)-colchicine (1), (-)-demecolcine (2), (-)-N-methyl-(-)-demecolcine (3) and
As a part of a project designed to investigate Colchicum species in Jordan, the chemical constituents of Colchicum crocifolium Boiss. (Colchicaceae) were investigated using LC-MS and LC-UV/Vis PDA. A decision tree for working with colchicinods has been developed by incorporating data from LC-UV/PDA
It was found that the so far described variations in the content of colchicine alkaloids in leaves and flowers of Colchicum autumnale L. and C. byzantinum Ten. are due to enzymatic O-demethylation and degradation of colchicine (I), N-deacetyl-N-formylcolchicine (XI), and demecolcine (XVII) during
Crude or dehydrated bulbs of autumn crocus (Colchicum autumnale L.) were fed to eleven calves. All the calves developed severe diarrhea and died or euthanized within 63 hr. At necropsy, the gastro-intestinal mucosa was edematous and hemorrhagic. Histologically, necrosis and degeneration with
Natural compounds played an important role for prevention and treatment of the disease as well as are the important compounds for the design of the new bioactive compounds. In this study, eight tropolone alkaloids were isolated from Colchicum kurdicum including colchicoside, 2-demethyl colchicine,
In this work, the phytochemical profile and the biological properties of Colchicum triphyllum (an unexplored Turkish cultivar belonging to Colchicaceae) have been comprehensively investigated for the first time. Herein, we focused on the evaluation of the in vitro antioxidant and enzyme
As part of our continuing investigation of Jordanian Colchicum species, the biologically active components of Colchicum brachyphyllum were pursued. Using bioactivity-directed fractionation, nine colchicinoids were isolated and characterized. One of these has a novel ring system, to which we have
In this paper, reliability and validity of a recently in-house developed dereplication strategy based on LC-MS and LC-UV/Vis PDA techniques were verified. The dereplication strategy was applied to investigate the alkaloid rich fraction of Colchicum brachyphyllum Boiss. & Haussk. ex Boiss.
