This study aimed to examine the anti-cancer and antioxidant properties and identify the phenolic content of methanolic extract obtained from the shoots of the Ornithogalum narbonense L. (OR) species, which is used for folk-medicine and food in the Sanliurfa region of Turkey. The antioxidant activity
OSW-1, isolated from the bulbs of Ornithogalum saundersiae Baker, is a steroidal saponin endowed with considerable antitumor properties. Biosynthesis of the 4-methoxybenzoyl group on the disaccharide moiety of OSW-1 is known to take place biochemically via the phenylpropanoid biosynthetic pathway,
Farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (FPPS, EC 2.5.1.10) catalyzes the consecutive head-to-tail condensations of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) with dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP) to form farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP), a key precursor of sesquiterpenoids, triterpenoids, sterols, and farnesylated
Six novel rearranged cholestane glycosides with a six-membered hemiacetal ring system, designated as saundersiosides C-H, were isolated from the bulbs of Ornithogalum saundersiae. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and the result of hydrolysis. The conformation
OSW-1 is a natural compound extracted from the bulbs of Ornithogalum saundersiae in 1992. It has been shown strong antitumor activities in various cancer cells. However, the effects of OSW-1 on tumor growth and metastasis in breast cancer are still poorly understood. In our research, we showed that

The present study first identified the involvement of OcUAXS2 and OcUXS1-3 in anticancer polysaccharides biosynthesis in O. caudatum. UDP-xylose synthase (UXS) and UDP-D-apiose/UDP-D-xylose synthase (UAXS), both capable of converting UDP-D-glucuronic acid to UDP-D-xylose, are believed to
3β,16β,17α-trihydroxycholest-5-en-22-one 16-O-(2-O-4-methoxybenzoyl-β-D-xylopyranosyl)-(1→3)- (2-O-acetyl-α-L-arabinopyranoside) (OSW-1) is a member of the cholestane saponin family, which was first isolated from the bulbs of Ornithogalum saundersiae and previously reported to be cytotoxic against
