There remains a critical need for more effective therapies for the treatment of late-stage and metastatic prostate cancers. Three Texas native plants yielded three new and three known compounds with antiproliferative and cytotoxic activities against prostate cancer cells with IC50 values in the
The known chalcone (±)-sanjuanolide (1) can be isolated from Dalea frutescens. This study presents a convergent strategy for the first total synthesis of ( R)-, ( S)-, and (±)-sanjuanolide (1). The key step for synthesizing ( R)- and ( S)-1 was a Corey-Bakshi-Shibata enantioselective carbonyl
The prenylated flavanone 2'-4'-dihidroxy-5'-(1" '-dimethylallyl)-6-prenylpinocembrin) (6PP), isolated from the roots of Dalea elegans, shows antimicrobial activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate mitochondrial toxicity and antioxidant properties of 6PP. Addition of micromolar concentrations
A new prenylated flavonol, petalopurpurenol (1), and a known dihydroflavonol, petalostemumol (2), have been isolated by DNA scission-guided fractionation of the organic portion of a 20% MeOH/CHCl3/H2O partition of a 50% MeOH/CHCl3 extract of the roots of Petalostemon purpureus. Compound 2 displayed
A new pterocarpan, (+)-3,4-dihydroxy-8,9-methylenedioxypterocarpan [1], was isolated from the flowers of Petalostemon purpureus by a DNA strand-scission assay-guided fractionation procedure. Compound 1 demonstrated activity in a standard in vitro DNA strand-scission assay, and cytotoxicity toward a
