Three prenylated flavonoids, dinklagins A, B and C identified, respectively, as (-)-6-(3,3-dimethylallyl)-7-hydroxy-6''', 6'''-dimethylchromeno-(4',3',2''',3''')-flavanone, (+)-5,4',5"xi-trihydroxy-6'',6''-dimethylchromano-(7,6,2'',3'')-flavone and
A new Diels-Alder-type adduct, dorstenone (1), was isolated from Dorstenia barteri together with three known flavonoids, 4,2', 4'-trihydoxy-3'-prenylchalcone; 4,2',4'-trihydoxy-3, 3'-diprenylchalcone; and 5,7,4'-trihydoxy-8-prenylflavone. The structure of 1 was elucidated using a combination of
Four new prenylated flavanones, dorsmanins 1, J and epi-dorsmanins F, G, identified, respectively, as 6,7-(2,2-dimethylpyrano)-8-prenyl-5,3',4'-trihydroxyflavanone, 6,7-(2,2-dimethyldihydropyrano)-8-prenyl-5,3',4'-trihydroxflavanone, and 2''-epimers of dorsmanins F and G were isolated from the
The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimycobacterial, antigonorrheal and reverse transcriptase activities of five flavonoids: isobachalcone (IBC); kanzanol C (KAN); 4-hydroxylonchocarpin (4-LCP); stipulin (SPL) and amentoflavone (AMF) from Dortenia barteri, together with the crude extract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the crude extract of the twigs of Dorstenia barteri (DBT) as well as that of four of the five flavonoids isolated from this extract. Gram-positive bacteria (six species), Gram-negative bacteria (12 species) and fungi (four species)
The antioxidant activities of three prenylated flavonoids from Dorstenia mannii (6,8-diprenyleriodictyol, dorsmanin C and dorsmanin F) were compared to the common, non-prenylated flavonoid, quercetin. The prenylated flavonoids were found to be potent scavengers of the stable free radical
Root extracts of a Cameroon medicinal plant, Dorstenia psilurus, were purified by screening for AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation in incubated mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs). Two isoprenylated flavones that activated AMPK were isolated. Compound 1 was identified as artelasticin by high
A monoprenylated flavan and two monoterpenoid substituted furanocoumarins were isolated from the twigs of Dorstenia elliptica along with 3-(3,3-dimethylallyl)-4,2',4'-trihydroxylchalcone, psoralen, bergapten, O-[3-(2,2-dimethyl-3-oxo-2H-furan-5-yl)butyl]bergaptol, beta-sitosterol and its
Several flavonoid-like compounds were found to possess good antiproliferative properties. Herein, we examined the ability of four naturally occuring and biologically active flavonoids from the genus Dorstenia, gancaonin Q (1), 6-prenylapigenin (2), 6,8-diprenyleriodictyol (3), and
This study was aimed at investigating the anti-inflammatory and anticholinesterase activity of six naturally occurring flavonoids: (-) pinostrobin (1), 2',4'-dihydroxy-3',6'-dimethoxychalcone (2), 6-8-diprenyleriodictyol (3), isobavachalcone (4), 4-hydroxylonchocarpin (5) and 6-prenylapigenin (6).
The methanolic extract (DAT), fractions (FRS) and four flavonoids, namely Gancaonin Q (1), Stipulin (2), Angusticornin B (3) and Bartericin A (4), isolated from the twigs of Dorstenia angusticornis (Moraceae), were tested for their in vitro antimicrobial activity. A total of 22 microbial cultures
Six new unusual C-4'-prenylated flavonols, dorsilurins F-K (1-6), together with six known compounds were isolated from the roots of Dorstenia psilurus, and their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence. The isolated compounds exhibited moderate to low alpha-glucosidase
Naturally occurring flavonoids have been reported to possess antimicrobial activity against a wide range of pathogens. However, the antimicrobial action mechanism of these compounds has not yet been elucidated. This study investigated the mechanism underlying the antibacterial activity of four
Dorstenia barteri and D. convexa extracts and some isolated components of the former were investigated for effectiveness against Trichomonas gallinarum and compared with quercetin and quercitrin. The antioxidant activity of the extracts/compounds was also determined. The minimum lethal
