Cell suspension cultures of Sophora flavescens produced large amounts of sophoraflavanone G, an 8-lavandulylated flavanone and lupalbigenin, a 6,3'-di-dimethylallylated isoflavone, by the simultaneous addition of cork tissues and methyl jasmonate. The labeling pattern of the isoprene units resulting
In this study, the antibacterial properties of sophoraflavanone G isolated from the methanol extract of Sophora flavescens were tested against 16 strains of mutans streptococci to screen and determine the optimal concentration of anti-caries natural extract. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated
In this study, sophoraflavanone G obtained from Sophora flavescens was evaluated against 10 clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), either alone or in combination with ampicillin or oxacillin, via checkerboard assay. At the end point of an optically clear well, the
It has previously been demonstrated that the addition of cork tissue to cell suspension cultures of Sophora flavescens stimulates the production of sophoraflavanone G, most of which has been recovered from the added cork tissue. In the present study, it was found that two precursors of
This study investigated the antibacterial activities of sophoraflavanone G from Sophora flavescens in combination with two antimicrobial agents against oral bacteria. The combined effect of sophoraflavanone G and the antimicrobial agents was evaluated using the checkerboard method to obtain a
Sophoraflavanone G (SG; 5,7,D, 2',4'-tetrahydroxy-8-lavandulylflavanone) has been isolated from Sophora flavescens and found to be effective against bacteria and to decrease cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression in RAW 264.7 macrophage. However, the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of SG are not well
Leachianone G (LG) 2"-dimethylallyltransferase, a novel prenyl side-chain elongation enzyme, was identified in Sophora flavescens Ait. cultured cells. The enzyme transfers a dimethylallyl group to the 2" position of another dimethylallyl group attached at position 8 of LG to form sophoraflavanone G,
A compound isolated from Sophora flavescens-sophoraflavanone G (SG)-showed anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory properties. We previously demonstrated that SG promoted apoptosis in human leukemia HL-60 cells. In the present study, we investigated the effects of SG on apoptosis in human Previously, several prenylated flavonoids having a C-8 lavandulyl moiety were found to inhibit cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) as well as 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX), and sophoraflavanone G was the most potent inhibitor against these eicosanoid generating enzymes among 19 prenylated flavonoids tested. In this
The bioassay-guided fractionation of the MeOH extract from the root of Sophora flavescens led to the isolation of eight known prenylated flavonoids ( 1 - 8) responsible for the IN VITRO anti-allergic activity. Among them, kushenol N ( 3), sophoraflavanone G ( 6), and leachianone A ( 7) demonstrated
Yeast functional screening with a Sophora flavescens cDNA library was performed to identify the genes involved in the tolerant mechanism to the self-producing prenylated flavonoid sophoraflavanone G (SFG). One cDNA, which conferred SFG tolerance, encoded a regulatory particle triple-A ATPase 2
As a part of the project for the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015 edition), the quality standard of Sophora flavescens root extract was investigated and established. According to the methods described in the Appendix of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2010 edition), the water and ash inspections were carried out.
Oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) is strongly implicated as a key process in the onset of atherosclerosis. In this study, nine alkylated (C10-C5) flavonoids from Sophora flavescens were examined for their inhibitory effects on copper-induced LDL oxidation. Of the flavonoids tested,
8-dimethylallylnaringenin (8-DMAN) 2'-hydroxylase, which is indispensable for the formation of a lavandulylated flavanone, sophoraflavanone G, was detected in cell suspension cultures of Sophora flavescens. The enzyme catalyzes the 2'-hydroxylation of 8-DMAN to leachianone G, and is tightly bound to
Four lavandulyl flavanones, (2S)-2'-methoxykurarinone (1), sophoraflavanone G (2), leachianone A (3), and (-)-kurarinone (4), which are isolated from the roots of Sophora flavescens have been tested for in vitro antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum. Compounds 1-3 showed moderate
