dysoxylum glandulosum/悪性腫瘍

Flavopiridol is a semi-synthetic flavone analog of the alkaloid, rohitukine, a compound from an Indian tree, Dysoxylum binectariferum. It has been shown to inhibit cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), causing cell cycle arrest and growth inhibition. Flavopiridol is reported to have cytotoxic activity

Rohitukine is a chromane alkaloid possessing anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and immuno-modulatory properties. The compound was first reported from Amoora rohituka (Meliaceae) and later from Dysoxylum binectariferum (Meliaceae) and Schumanniophyton problematicum (Rubiaceae). Flavopiridol, a

Rohitukine, a chromone alkaloid, possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and immuno-modulatory properties. It has been reported from four species, belonging to the families, Meliaceae and Rubiaceae. Stem bark of Dysoxylum binectariferum (Meliaceae) accumulates the highest amount of rohitukine (3-7%

Flavopiridol is a new synthetic flavone, structurally related to a natural alkaloid, originally purified from Dysoxylum binectariferum, a plant indigenous to India and used in Indian folk medicine. Flavopiridol was detected by a tandem screening system consisting in inhibition of the EGF-receptor

A 17-membered macrocyclolipopeptide, named dysoxylactam A (1) comprising an unprecedented branched C19 fatty acid and an l-valine, was isolated from the plants of Dysoxylum hongkongense. The challenging relative configuration of 1 was established by means of residual dipolar coupling-based NMR

For centuries, herbs and plants have been used for medicinal purposes and as food as well. This review concerns about different types of plants that retain the immune stimulating and anti-tumor properties. Large variety of active phytochemicals such as carotenoids, flavonoids, ligands,

The field of cancer research and treatment has made significant progress, yet we are far from having completely safe, efficient and specific therapies that target cancer cells and spare the healthy tissues. Natural compounds may reduce the problems related to cancer treatment. Currently, many plant

Nine new triterpene glucosides, named cumingianosides G-O (4-7, 9, 12-15), containing a 14,18-cycloapotirucallane-type skeleton were isolated from a cytotoxic fraction of the leaves of Dysoxylum cumingianum. The structures of the new compounds were established on the basis of chemical and spectral

The present study was designed to evaluate the anti-ulcerogenic properties of an alkaloid chromane, rohitukine from Dysoxylum binectariferum. Anti-ulcer potential of rohitukine was assessed in cold restrained, pyloric ligated and ethanol induced ulcers in rats. In addition, rohitukine was tested in

Three new steroids dyscusins A-C (1-3), including a stigmastane-type sterol and two pregnanes, together with two known steroids were isolated from the leaves of Dysoxylum cumingianum (Meliaceae). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses. In a cytotoxicity

Seven new clerodane diterpenoids, dysoxydensins A-G (1-7), together with six known clerodanes, were isolated from Dysoxylum densiflorum. The structures of all the compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis. These compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against five

Four previously undescribed steroids, identified as (3S,7S,8S,9S,10R,13S,14S,16S,17R,20S)-7α-methoxy-ergosta-5,24(28)-dien-3β,16β,20-triol (1), ergosta-5,24(28)-dien-3β,7α,16β-triol (2), ergosta-5,25-dien-3β,7α,16β,20-tetrol (3) and 7α,16β,24α-trihydroxy-varninasterol (4), as well as five known

Four new chromone alkaloids, chrotacumines A-D (1-4), consisting of a 5,7-dihydroxy-2-methylchromone, an N-Me piperidine ring, and an ester side chain were isolated from Dysoxylum acutangulum, and their structures including absolute configurations were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data

Rohitukine, a chromane alkaloid, is a precursor of flavopiridol, a promising anti-cancer compound. Currently in Phase III clinical trials, flavopiridol is a potent inhibitor of several cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Rohitukine was first reported from Amoora rohituka (0.083% dry weight) followed by

Rohitukine (referred to as RHK) is a bioactive chromone alkaloid isolated from the leaves of plant Dysoxylum binectariferum, which has been reported to possess diverse pharmacological properties for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), diarrhoea and anti-lipidemic. However, the
