Diarylheptanoids have been the center of the intensive research efforts for Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. The present study aimed to determine the effect of the standardized extract of B. platyphylla bark and its major diarylheptanoids in scopolamine-induced amnesic mice
A simple and rapid method using high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC), along with bioassay-guided fractionation based on the anti-proliferative activity against renal and colon cancer cells, has been developed for the preparative separation of aceroside VIII (1) and platyphylloside (2)
Phytochemical investigations of the MeOH extract of Betula papyrifera inner bark led to the isolation of ten phenolic compounds of the following types: diarylheptanoid glycosides (1-4), a diarylheptanoid (5), a lignan (6), flavonoids (7-8) and chavicol glycosides (9-10). Among them, the
A chemical investigation of the n-butanol fraction of the inner bark of Betula platyphylla led to the isolation of seven diarylhepanoids, (-)-centrolobol (1), aceroside VII (2), aceroside VIII (3), (3R)-1,7-bis-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-heptanol-3-O-[2,6-bis-O-(β-D-apiofuranosyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside (4),
The 50% aqueous methanolic extract from the bark of Betula platyphylla SUKATCHEV var. japonica (MIQ). HARA was found to show potent inhibitory activity on the liver-injury induced by CCl4 or D-galactosamine (D-GalN)/lipopolysaccharide as well as O2- scavenging and antioxidative activities. From the
Outbreaks of bronze birch borer (BBB) (Agrilus anxius), a wood-boring beetle endemic to North America, have been associated with widespread mortality of birch (Betula spp.). There is substantial inter- and intra-specific variation in birch resistance to BBB. Species endemic to North America, such as
BACKGROUND
Obesity causes or aggravates many health problems, both independently and in association with several pathological disorders, including Type II diabetes, hypertension, atherosclerosis, and cancer. Therefore, we screened small compounds isolated from natural products for the development of
The identification of new isoform-specific histone deacetylase inhibitors is important for revealing the biological functions of individual histone deacetylase and for determining their potential use as therapeutic agents. Among the 11 zinc-dependent histone deacetylases that have been identified in
Betula platyphylla bark has been evaluated for the treatment of dermatitis, inflammatory conditions, and cancer. Diarylheptanoids are the major constituents of the B. platyphylla bark and possess various pharmacological effects. Our previous study confirmed the selective
BACKGROUND
Trees and shrubs of the genus Betula (Betulaceae) inhabit various ecosystems in temperate and boreal climate zones of the northern hemisphere. The healing properties of Betula bark and bark extracts have been known for a long time in traditional medicine in different parts of the world.
