During a screening procedure involving higher plants to find novel candidates for use as anti-inflammatory agents, Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f. was shown to exhibit considerable inhibitory activity. Five new sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloids, tripterygiumines S-W (1-4,15), along with 14 known
Twelve new dihydroagarofuran sesquiterpene polyol esters, triptersinines A-L (1-12), and eight known sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloids were isolated from the leaves of Tripterygium wilfordii. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses, including UV, IR, and NMR
Recently, two different reports appeared in prominent journals suggesting a mechanism by which piperlongumine, a pyridine alkaloid, mediates anticancer effects. In the current report, we describe another novel mechanism by which this alkaloid mediates its anticancer effects. We found that
