In multidrug resistance (MDR), cancer cells exposed to anticancer agents develop resistance to a wide variety of chemicals and chemotherapeutic agents. Sesquiterpene coumarins are reported to inhibit P-glycoprotein and/or increase cytotoxicity of anticancer drugs in P-gp-overexpressing cell lines.
Several species of Ferula L. genus have been used in traditional Turkish medicine as aphrodisiac to treat male sexual dysfunction. Especially, roots and oleo gum resin of F. elaeochytris Korovin, F. communis L., F. assa-foetida L. and F. gummosa Boiss. were claimed to be used for From the dichloromethane extract of aerial parts of Ferula vesceritensis (Apiaceae), 11 sesquiterpene derivatives were isolated. Among them five were compounds designated as 10-hydroxylancerodiol-6-anisate, 2,10-diacetyl-8-hydroxyferutriol-6-anisate, 10-hydroxylancerodiol-6-benzoate, vesceritenone
BACKGROUND
In the search for new natural compounds with acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity this study focused on galbanum, the oleo gum-resin from Ferula gummosa Boiss., which had shown AChE inhibitory activity in a screening.
OBJECTIVE
The isolation of bioactive compounds from plant
The gum resin of Ferula assafoetida Linn. afforded one new sesquiterpene, asimafoetida 1 and three known sesquiterpenoid coumarins. The structure has been established from extensive 2D NMR spectral studies as
BACKGROUND
Ferula species are reputed in folk medicine for the treatment of a variety of disorders. There have been sporadic reports on the chemopreventive and chemosensitizing activities of some terpenoid coumarin derivatives from the genus Ferula. The present study investigated the cytotoxic
It is well known that inflammation is associated with various neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. An inflammatory mediator, nitric oxide (NO), is produced by inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in microglia and seems to be one of the possible causes of
