Herbs have been used for medicinal purposes for centuries and known to possess antioxidant properties that may help to reduce the risk of chronic diseases, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. We screen aqueous extracts from 20 medicinal plants in Thailand that were believed to possess anti-tumor
BACKGROUND
Antidiabetic activity of Derris reticulata extract on alloxan-induced diabetic rats has been reported. The extract was found to lower blood glucose and inhibit intestinal glucose absorption. The aim of this study was to further investigate mechanisms underlying the antihyperglycemic
In this work, silver nanoparticles (AgNP-DTa) were prepared using an aqueous seed extract of D. trifoliata. The importance of the present piece of work is viewed specially with respect to ascertaining the potential of a widely distributed under-utilized mangrove associated plant, Derris
Derris reticulata (Leguminosae-Papilionoideae) has been used for the treatment of diabetes in Thai folk remedies. The phytochemical investigation of the wood of D. reticulata revealed the isolation of two new pyranoflavanones, 4'-methoxydereticulatin (1) and
BACKGROUND
The Derris genus is known to contain flavonoid derivatives, including prenylated flavanones and isoflavonoids such as rotenoids, which are generally associated with significant biological activity.
OBJECTIVE
To develop an efficient preparative isolation procedure for bioactive
Pomiferin, a prenylated isoflavonoid from Derris malaccensis with strong anti-fungal and anti-oxidant activities, showed cytotoxic activity towards human cholangiocarcinoma cells (HuCCA-1), with IC(50) of 0.9 microg/mL. Pomiferin caused apoptosis, detectable by DNA fragmentation. Two-dimensional
Fractionation of the aqueous extract of Derris scandens stems extract using tests for eicosanoid inhibition resulted in the isolation of three isoflavonoids, genistein, its 7- O-alpha-rhamno(1-->6)-beta-glucosyl glycoside, a new compound, and two known isoprenyl derivatives
The leaves of Acanthus ebracteatus, stembark of Oroxylum indicum and the stems of Cryptolepis buchanani and Derris scandens are used as traditional remedies in Thailand for arthritis. Aqueous and alcoholic extracts were tested using three different in vitro systems for effects relevant to
