Two new 2-arylbenzofurans, sesbagrandiflorain D (1) and E (2) along with two known 2-arylbenzofurans, spinosan A (3) and spinosan B (4) were isolated from the stem bark of Sesbania grandiflora L. The structure of two new compounds established by HRESIMS, 1 D NMR
Although 2-arylbenzofuran phytoalexins are known for decades, their anticancer activity has not been studied systematically. We have previously reported on the isolation and the estrogen receptor (ER) modulation properties of three new 2-arylbenzofurans from Onobrychis ebenoides, ebenfuran I
Four new 2-arylbenzofuran derivatives, moracins V-Y (1-4), together with two known compounds, moracin N (5) and moracin P (6), were isolated from the leaves of Morus alba L. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis. Moracins X (3) and Y (4) represent unusual substituted group
A new 2-arylbenzofuran, sesbagrandiflorain C (1), together with four known compounds, 2-(3,4-dihydroxy-2-methoxyphenyl)-4-hydroxy-6-methoxybenzofuran-3-carbaldehyde (2), 2-(4-hydroxy-2-methoxyphenyl)-5,6-dimethoxybenzofuran-3-carboxaldehyde (3), sesbagrandiflorain A (4)
7-hydroxy-5,4'-dimethoxy-2-arylbenzofuran (Ary) is purified from Livistona. It has been demonstrated to have anticancer activity to various tumors in including cervical cancer, but its mechanism is still unclear. In the present, we show that Ary induces cervical cancer cells apoptosis through
We previously reported that 7-hydroxy-5, 4'-dimethoxy-2-arylbenzofuran (HDAB) purified from Livistona chinensis is a key active agent. The present study investigated the function and molecular mechanism of HDAB. HDAB treatment of cervical cancer cells resulted in S phase arrest and apoptosis,
Three new 2-arylbenzofurans named wittifuran H, wittifuran I and wittifuran U (1-3) were obtained during our ongoing investigation of an ethanol extract from the stem bark of Morus wittiorum. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Compound 2 displayed potent
Four new 2-arylbenzofuran derivatives, cathafurans A (1), B (2), C (3), and D (4), were isolated from the stem bark of Morus cathayana. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods. Compounds 2 and 3 exhibited moderate activities against five human cancer cell lines, with IC(50) values
Thirteen compounds belonging to different classes of alkaloids (1-9) and lignans (10-13), isolated from the methanol extract of roots of the African medicinal plant Zanthoxylum capense, were assayed for their ability as apoptosis inducers in HCT116 colon carcinoma cells. The cytotoxicity of these
Sesbagrandiflorains A (1) and B (2), isolated from the stem bark of the Indonesian fabaceous plant Sesbania grandiflora, were reported to be 6-methoxy-2-(2´,3´-dihydroxy-5´-methoxyphenyl)-1-benzofuran-3-carbaldehyde and 6-hydroxy-2-(2´,3´-dihydroxy-5´-methoxyphenyl)-1-benzofuran-3-carbaldehyde,
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is the central mediator of cellular responses to low oxygen concentrations and vital to many aspects of cancer biology. Bioassay-guided fractionation of the chloroform-soluble extracts of Morus species using a hypoxia response element (HRE)-dependent reporter assay
Several classes of flavonoids [flavanoids (1-10), flavonol (11), isoflavones (12-18), isoflavanones (19-22), isoflavans (23-26), chalcones (27-30), auronol (31), pterocarpans (32-37), 2-arylbenzofuran (38), and neoflavonoid (39)] and lignans (40-42) isolated from the MeOH extract of Brazilian red
A new pyranoflavanone, sanggenol L (1), a Diels-Alder type adduct regarded as a cycloaddition product of a dehydrogeranylflavanone and a prenylchalcone, sanggenol M (2), along with four new 2-arylbenzofurans with isoprenoid units, mulberrofurans W-Z (3-6), were isolated together with 10 known
Selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) act as either agonist or antagonist of estrogen receptor (ER) in a tissue selective manner and have been used in several diseases such as breast cancer, postmenopausal syndrome, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular diseases. However, current SERMs may also
Chemical investigation of the root bark of Morus alba led to the isolation of a new flavone, dioxycudraflavone A (1) and a new 2-arylbenzofuran, 5-hydroxyethyl moracin M (2), together with seven known compounds namely sanggenon V (3), morusin (4), morusignin L (5), licoflavone C (6), moracin C (7),
