Thymidine phosphorylase, also known as platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor, is a potent angiogenic factor. Thymidine phosphorylase is overexpressed in various human tumors and plays an important role in angiogenesis. A novel inhibitor of thymidine phosphorylase (TP),
A n-butanol-soluble fraction of an ethanolic extract from the roots of Symplocos chinensis showed cytotoxic activity against several cancer cell lines. Bioassay-guided purification led to the isolation and characterization of eight new triterpenoid saponins, symplocososides L-S (1-8). The structures
Five new triterpenoid saponins, named symplocososides G-K, were isolated from the roots of Symplocos chinensis. Their structures were elucidated by spectral and chemical methods as symplocososide G, 3beta-O-{[beta-
BACKGROUND
Symplocos racemosa Roxb. belongs to a unigeneric family Symplocaceae, known as lodhra in Sanskrit; is a small evergreen tree, found throughout the tropical and sub-tropical countries. Ethnobotanical literature indicates use of S. racemosa in treatment of eye disease, skin diseases, ear
We investigated the potential of symplocomoside (1) and symponoside (2), glycosides isolated from the bark of Symplocos racemosa to inhibit thymidine phosphorylase (TP) activity and associated angiogenesis. Compound 1 was a reversible, noncompetitive inhibitor of deoxythymidine binding to TP (IC(50)
Study plots totaling 0.2 Ha were established in primary forest in the highlands of central Palawan Island, Philippines. Samples of various anatomical parts [typically leaf + twig (If/tw), stem bark (sb), and root (rt)] were collected from all tree species represented within the plots by individuals
An indigenous herbal extract IM-133N containing extracts of Prosopis glandulosa Torr and Symplocos racemosa Roxb were evaluated for potential immunomodulatory effects using RAW264.7 and THP-1 cells. The incubation of the cells for 24 h with IM-133N over a dose range 0-125 µg/ml did not cause
