lirioresinol/モクレン属

Guided by PAF induced platelet aggregation, six active lignins were isolated from the flower buds of Magnolia biondii and identified as fargesin, demethoxyaschantin, aschantin, pinoresinol dimethyl ether, magnolin, lirioresinol-B dimethyl ether. The 13CNMR and CD data were reported and the

The present study aims to investigate the lignans from the flower buds of Magnolia biondii. The isolation and purification of the compounds were performed by column chromatographies on Diaion HP-20, silica gel, and Sephadex LH-20, combined with semi-preparative HPLC. Their structures were elucidated

In order to establish the antiallergic properties of Schisandra fructus and Magnolia flos, several compounds isolated from these plants were tested for 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibitory activity in vitro, for the first time. The compounds including schizandrins, schisandrols, gomisins, fargesin,

Three TNF alpha-inhibitory lignans were isolated from the flower buds of Magnolia fargesii through bioassay-guided isolation. They were identified as eudesmin, magnolin and lirioresinol-B dimethylether on the basis of their spectroscopic data. All three lignans showed inhibitory effects on TNF-alpha
