The infections by protozoans of the genus Leishmania are a major worldwide health problem, with high endemicity in developing countries. The drugs of choice for the treatment of leishmaniasis are the pentavalent antimonials, which cause renal and cardiac toxicity. As part of a search for new drugs
Cruzain is the major cysteine protease of Trypanosoma cruzi, the infectious agent responsible for Chagas disease, and cruzain inhibitors display considerable antitrypanosomal activity. In the present work we elucidated crystallographic data of fukugetin, a biflavone isolated from Garcinia
The ethanol extract of Garcinia mangostana L. (Guttiferae) showed potent inhibitory activity against HIV-1 protease. The activity-guided purification of the extract resulted in the isolation of two active, known compounds. The chemical structures of the isolated compounds were established by
We have investigated the in vitro inhibition of papain, trypsin, and cathepsins B and G by five benzophenone-type compounds, three natural ones isolated from Garcinia brasiliensis and two synthetic derivatives. The activities of pentaprenylated trihydroxy-substituted benzophenone guttiferone A (1)
Dengue virus NS2/NS3 protease because of its ability to cleave viral proteins is considered as an attractive target to screen antiviral agents. Medicinal plants contain a variety of phytochemicals that can be used as drug against different diseases and infections. Therefore, this study was designed
Background: Chemotherapy for advanced cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is largely ineffective; thus innovative combinations of chemotherapeutic agents and natural compounds represent a promising strategy. This study aimed to investigate the synergistic effects of forbesione combined with 5-fluorouracil
The natural biflavonoids morelloflavone-4‴-O-β-D-glycosyl (1), (±)-fukugiside (2) and morelloflavone (3) were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract (EAEE) of dried and powdered fruit epicarps of Garcinia brasiliensis and derivatives of morelloflavone were semi-synthesised.
Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L., Clusiaceae) is a popular botanical dietary supplement in the United States, where it is used principally as an antioxidant. It is referred to as the "queen of fruits" in Thailand, a country of origin. The major secondary metabolites of mangosteen, the xanthones,
OBJECTIVE
Streptococcus pyogenes, a notorious human pathogen thatis responsible for various invasive and non-invasive diseases, possesses multiple virulence armaments, including biofilm formation. The current study demonstrates the anti-biofilm and anti-virulence potential of fukugiside, a
Phytochemical investigation on the root bark of Garcinia edulis (Clusiaceae) gave a new isoprenylated xanthone, 1,4,6-trihydroxy-3-methoxy-2-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-5-(1,1-dimethyl-prop-2-enyl)xanthone (1), a known xanthone, forbexanthone (2) together with three known pentacyclic triterpenoids,
The influence of black currant juice, Bowman-Birk protease inhibitor (BBI), kolaviron (a biflavonoid fraction of Garcinia kola seed), sugars, vitamin C and tert-butyl hydroperoxide on a wide range of biomarkers for oxidative stress, DNA damage and sugar or lipid metabolism has been investigated in
