Magnoflorine is an aporphine alkaloid present in plant species belonging to the Berberidaceae, Magnoliaceae, Menispermaceae, or Papaveraceae botanical families. The interest of magnoflorine has increased recently due to its multiplicity of pharmacological properties. The aim of this study was the
The antitumor effect of magnoflorine (Mag), an alkaloid isolated from Coptidis Rhizoma, in gastric cancer (GC) cells has not been reported. In the study, Mag suppressed the proliferation of GC cells, but showed no influence on normal gastric cells. Mechanistically, Mag induced autophagy in GC cells,
Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a broad-spectrum anti-breast cancer agent, but its clinical use is restricted due to irreversible tissue toxicity. Thereby, new therapeutic approaches are urgently required to promote the sensitivity of
Aims: Magnoflorine is an essential type of alkaloid and possesses anti-tumor activity in multiple cancers. Recent studies have demonstrated that magnoflorine plays tumor-suppressive roles in gastric and breast cancers. However, its role
The bark of Magnolia officinalis is a well-known Traditional Chinese Medicine. In the present study, two new alkaloids, named (S)-4-keto-magnoflorine (6) and (R)-3,4-dehydromagnocurarine (11), together with seven known alkaloids: (S)-magnoflorine (5), trans/cis N-feruloylputrescine (7/8),
Bioassay guided fractionation of the methanol extract of Magnolia grandiflora L. (Magnoliaceae) leaves led to the isolation and characterisation of four aporphine alkaloids, magnoflorine, lanuginosine, liriodenine and anonaine. The cytotoxicities of the pure compounds magnoflorine and lanuginosine
The fruit of Ziziphus jujuba Mill., also called hongzao in Chinese, has a long history of cultivation in China. From the fruit of Z. jujuba, twenty-seven known compounds were isolated and identified as the main constituents of these fruits. They were 3-O-(trans-p-coumaroyl)-alphitolic acid (1),
Jikan Mingmu Drops (JMD), a traditional Tibetan medicine containing six herbs, has been used to treat dry eye syndrome (DES) in individuals with diabetes mellitus.However, the activity of JMD ameliorates DES with diabetes mellitus has not been previously OBJECTIVE
To investigate the chemical constituents of the branches and leaves of Polyalthia nemoralis.
METHODS
The compounds were isolated and purified by silica gel, macroporous adsorption resin and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatographic methods. Their chemical structures were elucidated on the
Considering the importance of Tinospora sinensis in folklore as immunomodulant, the leaves subjected to cold maceration using ethanol, ethyl acetate and n-hexane and then screened for their antitubercular, anticancer and IL-10 expression (HCT-116) properties using luciferase reporter phage,
Chromatographic separation of the MeOH extract from the stems and rhizomes of Sinomemium acutum led to the isolation of nine alkaloids and a lignan. Their structures were determined to be dauriporphine (1), bianfugecine (2), dauriporphinoline (3), menisporphine (4), (-)-syringaresinol (5),
Podophyllum hexandrum and, to a much lesser extent P. peltatum, are sources of podophyllotoxin, extensively used as a chemical scaffold for various anti-cancer drugs. In this study, integrated omics technologies (including advanced mass spectrometry/metabolomics, transcriptome sequencing/gene
G-quadruplex DNA structure is considered to be a very attractive target for antitumor drug design due to its unique role in maintaining telomerase activities. Therefore, discovering ligands with high stability of G-quadruplex structure is of great interest. In this paper, pH-zone refining counter
Skimmin, a major active ingredient derived from Hydrangea paniculata, has been considered to possess various pharmacological activities, including renoprotective activity, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and antiamoebic properties. However, no investigation has reported the quantification and
Bawei Longzuan granule (BLG) is a representative Zhuang medicine preparation. The present work aims to characterize the chemical constituents of BLG and evaluate its anti-arthritic activity. The major chemical constituents of BLG were tentatively identified by ultra-performance liquid
