Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer and is also the second leading cause of cancer‑associated death in women worldwide. Thus, there is an urgent requirement for the development of effective treatments for this disease. Bridelia ovata and Croton oblongifolius are herbs used in Thai
The incidence of lung cancer has increased while the mortality rate has continued to remain high. Effective treatment of this disease is the key to survival. Therefore, this study is a necessity in continuing research into new effective treatments. In this study we determined the effects of three
New ent-trachylobane-3β-hydroperoxide (5) together with four known compounds, ricinine (1), trimethoxy ellagic acid (2), dimethoxy ellagic acid (3) and aleurotolic acid (4) were isolated from the methylene chloride fraction of the root bark of
Three new halimane-type diterpenoids, crotohalimaneic acid ( 1), crotohalimoneic acid ( 2) and 12-benzoyloxycrotohalimaneic acid ( 3), were isolated from the stem bark of Croton oblongifolius Roxb. Their structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic and X-ray analysis. Compounds 1 and 2
Four novel furanocembranoids (1-4) were isolated from the stem bark of Croton oblongifolius. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, mainly NMR and MS. Compounds 1, 3, and 4 exhibited good cytotoxicity against several human tumor cell lines.
Three labdane diterpenoids, 2-acetoxy-3-hydroxy-labda-8(17),12(E)-14-triene, 3-acetoxy-2-hydroxy-labda-8(17),12(E)-14-triene, and 2,3-dihydroxy-labda-8(17),12(E),14-triene were isolated from stem bark of Croton oblongifolius. Their structures were established by spectroscopic data, and each was also
Labda-7,12( E),14-triene-17-oic acid, previously isolated from Croton oblongifolius, and its derivatives were investigated for cytotoxicity against five human tumor cell lines. Six of these compounds, labda-7,12( E),14-triene-17-al, 17-hydroxylabda-7,12( E),14-triene, 17-acetoxylabda-7,12(
A new furoclerodane, croblongifolin, together with one known clerodane, crovatin and one known labdane, nidorellol, were isolated from the stem bark of Croton oblongifolius. Structures were established based on spectroscopic and X-ray analysis. Croblongifolin showed a significant cytotoxicity
Four xanthones were isolated from mycelia of Emericella variecolor, an endophytic fungus isolated from the leaves of Croton oblongifolius. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis to be shamixanthone, 14-methoxytajixanthone-25-acetate, tajixanthone methanoate, and tajixanthone
The present study was conducted to determine the total phenolics, flavonoids, flavonols, anthocyanin, and carotenoids as well as the antioxidant activity of 10 different Crozophora tinctoria accessions originated from Iran. The highest contents of total phenolics, flavonoids, flavonols, anthocyanin,
Osteoporosis is a chronic disease in which the skeleton loses a weighty proportion of its mineralized mass and mechanical pliability. Currently available antiosteoporotic agents suffer adverse effects that include elevated risk of thrombosis and cancer. Phytochemicals may constitute a safer and
The proangiogenic members of VEGF family and related receptors play a central role in the modulation of pathological angiogenesis. Recent insights indicate that, due to the strict biochemical and functional relationship between VEGFs and related receptors, the development of a new generation of
BACKGROUND
The role of natural products as a source for remedies has been recognized since the beginning of mankind. Nevertheless, a minority of folkloricly used medicinal plants have been evaluated for their pharmacological activities.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study is to evaluate 33 selected
