Crude sample solution prepared from the seeds of Castanosperum australe was fractionated by preparative liquid chromatography. The fractions thus obtained were subsequently analyzed by means of thermospray liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (tsp lc-ms). Under the conditions employed,
A tetrahydroxyindolizidine alkaloid, 6,7-diepicastanospermine, was isolated from the seeds of Castanospermum australe by extraction with methanol and purified to homogeneity using ion-exchange, preparative thin-layer, and radial chromatography. A very low yield of a pyrrolidine alkaloid,
A second indolizidine alkaloid, epimeric with castanospermine, has been isolated from seeds of the Australian tree Castanospermum australe. The structure was established as 6-epicastanospermine by proton and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.
A new indolizidine alkaloid has been isolated from the seeds of Castanospermum [1] australe and identified as 7-deoxy-6-epi-castanospermine by ms and 1H- and 13C-nmr spectroscopy. The alkaloid is the first trihydroxylated indolizidine to be isolated from this plant and may represent an intermediate
The antidiabetic actions of Castanospermum australe Cunn., seed (CAS) extract were evaluated in Poloxamer-407 (PX-407) induced T2DM rats. The CAS extract (100 and 150 mg/kg body weight) was administered orally once a day for 5 weeks after the animals were confirmed diabetic. A significant increase
Australine [(1R,2R,3R,7S,7aR)-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1,2,7-trihydroxypyrrolizid ine] is a polyhydroxylated pyrrolizidine alkaloid that was isolated from the seeds of the Australian tree Castanospermum australe and characterized by NMR and X-ray diffraction analysis [Molyneux et al. (1988) J. Nat. Prod.
OBJECTIVE
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an acute inflammatory disorder characterized by autodigestion of pancreatic tissue resulting in local pancreatic injury or systemic inflammatory response. Castanospermine (CAST) is an alkaloid from the Castanospermum australe, known as an anti-inflammatory agent
Castanospermine is an indolizidine alkaloid that is found in the seeds of the Australian tree Castanospermum australe. These seeds have been reported to be toxic to animals and to cause severe gastrointestinal upset. In order to determine whether castanospermine is responsible for this toxicity, the
Castanospermine, an indolizidine alkaloid isolated from the seeds of the chestnut tree Castanospermum australe, has been shown to prevent the normal glycosylational processing of the v-fms-transforming glycoprotein. v-fms-transformed cells grown in vitro in the presence of castanospermine accumulate
Two calves given a mean of 16.1 g and 16.4 g ripe Castanospermum australe seeds/kg body weight daily for 13 and 16 days respectively developed haemorrhagic gastroenteritis. The first calf died. The second calf had mild myocardial degeneration and necrosis and mild nephrosis at necropsy. Two calves
We report the isolation and structural determination of fourteen iminosugars, containing five pyrrolizidines and five indolizidines, from Castanospermum australe. The structure of a new alkaloid was elucidated by spectroscopic methods as 6,8-diepi-castanospermine (13). Our side-by-side comparison
Castanospermine (1,6,7,8-tetrahydroxyoctahydroindolizine) is an indolizidine alkaloid that was isolated from the Australian plant, Castanospermum australe. This alkaloid was found to be a potent inhibitor of lysosomal alpha- and beta-glucosidases. In this report, the mechanism of inhibition of
Phytochemicals are constitutive metabolites that enable plants to overcome temporary or continuous threats integral to their environment, while also controlling essential functions of growth and reproduction. All of these roles are generally advantageous to the producing organisms but the inherent
