gentiacaulein/リンドウ属

Gentiana kochiana Perr. et Song. (Gentianaceae), a plant used in the traditional medicine of Tuscany (Italy) as antihypertensive remedy, exerts a vasodilator action on in vitro aortic rings that is probably linked to the blocking of the ryanodine-sensitive Ca++ channels. In the present study, three

The present study identifies xanthones gentiakochianin and gentiacaulein as the active principles responsible for the in vitro antiglioma action of ether and methanolic extracts of the plant Gentiana kochiana. Gentiakochianin and gentiacaulein induced cell cycle arrest in G(2)/M and G(0)/G(1)

Diethylether extract of aerial parts of Gentiana kochiana mostly consists of two tetraoxygenated xanthones: gentiacaulein (1,7-dihidroxy-3,8-dimethoxyxanthone; 76.1%) and gentiakochianin (1,7,8-trihidroxy-3-methoxyxanthone; 14.2%). The extract and these xanthones were evaluated for the CNS
