A leaf rinse extract with dichloromethane from Dimerostemma vestitum afforded five new eudesmanolides (1-5) along with the known flavone eupafolin. Compounds 1-5 were isolated by chromatographic methods, and their structures were elucidated by spectral analyses. Eudesmanolides 1-4 show a functional
A phytochemical analysis of the dichloromethane extract from the flowers of a subspecies of Tanacetum vulgare growing in Sicily was carried out. Five known sesquiterpene lactones with the eudesmane skeleton have been isolated and the cytotoxic activity of these compounds was tested in vitro on A549
Plant tissue culture is used to grow plant cells, tissues, or organs under sterile and determined conditions on culture media. It is alternative to traditional vegetative propagation, and is applied as an effective technology for the production of valuable secondary metabolites. The Artemisia
Oncosiphon piluliferum (Asteraceae) is used traditionally to treat a variety of ailments, mainly fevers. This prompted the screening of this plant for antiplasmodial properties. The dichloromethane extract of the aerial parts of the plant showed activity in vitro against the chloroquine-sensitive
In continuation of a search for new antiprotozoal agents from plants of the family Asteraceae, Tarchonanthus camphoratus and Schkuhria pinnata have been investigated. By following the promising in vitro activity of the dichloromethane extracts from their aerial parts, bioassay-guided chromatographic
The increasing incidence of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial pathogens has focused research on the suppression of bacterial virulence via quorum sensing inhibition strategies, rather than the conventional antimicrobial approach. The anti-virulence potential of eudesmanolide sesquiterpene
