In this study, we purified a novel cytotoxic protein, aralin, from the shoots of Aralia elata. Aralin is composed of two subunits, A and B chains whose molecular weights are 29,100 and 32,200, respectively. In the assay using a normal human lung fibroblast cells (WI-38) and its SV40-transformed
We previously isolated a novel compound, HY251, with the molecular structure of 3-propyl-2-vinyl-1,2,3,3a,3b,6,7,7a,8,8adecahydrocyclopenta[ a]indene-3,3a,7a,8a-tetraol from the roots of Aralia continentalis. The current study was designed to evaluate the detailed molecular mechanisms underlying the
Recently, we isolated HY253, a novel decahydrofluorene analog with a molecular structure of 7,8a-divinyl-2,4a,4b,5,6,7,8,8a,9,9a-decahydro-1H-fluorene-2,4a,4b,9a-tetraol from the roots of Aralia continentalis, which is known as Dokwhal, a traditional medicinal herb. Moreover, we previously reported
OBJECTIVE
In the course of our screening for novel modulators on cell cycle progression and apoptosis as anticancer drug candidates, we isolated a novel compound HY253 with the molecular structure of 7,8a-divinyl-2,4a,4b,5,6,7,8,8a,9,9a-decahydro-1H-fluorene-2,4a,4b,9a-tetraol from the roots of
In the course of screening for a novel anticancer drug candidate, we previously isolated HY251 with the molecular structure of 3-propyl-2-vinyl-1,2,3,3a,3b,6,7,7a,8,8a-decahydrocyclopenta[a]indene-3,3a,7a,8a-tetraol from the roots of Aralia continentalis. The current study was designed to evaluate
Aralia elata Seem. is a traditional folk Chinese medicinal plant and its leaves have been used to treat many diseases. We aimed to evaluate the anti-breast cancer activity and safety pharmacology of the ethanol extract of A. elata Seem. leaves (ELE). Cytotoxicity was evaluated on human tumor cell
A new polyacetylenic compound, araliadiol, was isolated from the leaves of Aralia cordata Thunb. (Araliaceae). The structure of araliadiol was determined to be 3( S),8( R)-pentadeca-1,9( Z)-diene-4,6-diyne-3,8-diol by MS, NMR, IR, and UV spectroscopic analysis as well as Mosher ester reaction.
Five new diterpenoids (1-5) were isolated from the roots of Aralia melanocarpa, together with four known compounds, 7β-hydroxy-ent-pimara-8(14),15-diene-19-oic acid (6), 18-norpimara-8(14),15-dien-4-ol (7), ent-16βH,17-isovalerate-kauran-19-oic acid (8), and ent-16α,17-dihydroxykauran-19-oic acid
Three diterpenes (1, 8, and 9), three triterpenes (3, 4, and 7), one saponin (11), four sterols (2, 5, 6, and 12), and one cerebroside (10) were isolated from the EtOH extract of the aerial parts of Aralia cordata by repeated silica gel column chromatography. Their chemical structures were
Many studies have indicated that activation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 and smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration are involved in neointimal formation and atherosclerosis. In this study, we revealed that pimaric acid (PiMA) purified from Aralia cordata had an inhibitory effect on MMP-9
This study investigated the effect of Urtica dioica, known as stinging nettle, seed oil (UDO) treatment on colonic tissue and blood parameters of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis in rats. Experimental colitis was induced with 1 mL of TNBS in 40% ethanol by intracolonic
In the present study, we isolated and characterized one purified polysaccharide (AEP-1) from the leaves of Aralia elata, and investigated its effect on human osteosarcoma (OS) U-2 OS cell line and analyzed its mechanism. MTT assays showed that AEP-1 markedly inhibited the growth of U-2 OS cells in a
Three new triterpene glucosides, named congmuyenosides C-E (1-3, resp.), along with four known ones, were isolated from an EtOH extract of Aralia elata (Miq.) Seem. leaves. The structures of the new compounds were identified as
Phytochemical investigation of the leaves of Aralia elata has led to the isolation of four new compounds, 3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl (1→3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl (1→3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl oleanolic acid (1), 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl (1→3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl (1→3)]-[β-D-glucopyranosyl (1→2)]-β-d-glucopyranosyl
Aralin from Aralia elata is a newly identified type II ribosome- inactivating protein, which preferentially induces apoptosis in cancer cells. In this study, we identified that the aralin receptor is a 110-kDa high-density lipoprotein-binding protein (HDLBP), which functions as a HDL receptor. The
