Diospyrin, a tumour inhibitory agent from the stem bark of Diospyros montana was isolated and characterised. A sensitive high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method was developed for the estimation of diospyrin. The method was validated for precision (intra- and inter-day),
Derivatisation of diospyrin, a bisnaphthoquinonoid isolated from Diospyros montana Roxb., led to the modification of its inhibitory activity, in vitro, towards a murine tumour model, Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC), and two human cancer cell lines, viz., malignant skin melanoma (A375) and epidermoid
BACKGROUND
Alkyl ethers (D2 and D7) synthesized from diospyrin (D1), a naphthoquinonoid isolated from Diospyros montana Roxb., were evaluated for cytotoxicity and capacity to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tumour cells.
METHODS
The tumour inhibitory activity of the quinonoids was assessed
A sensor based on glassy carbon (GC) electrode modified with cobalt tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine (CoTSPc) and a poly-l-lysine (PLL) film is proposed for diospyrin determination in nanomolar concentrations with differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique. The modified electrode showed excellent
The synthesis and tumor-inhibitory activity of a series of aminonaphthoquinone derivatives of diospyrin, which was isolated from Diospyros montana Roxb., are presented here for the first time. An aminoacetate derivative showed the maximum (approximately 93%) increase in life span in vivo against
Diospyrin is a bisnaphthoquinonoid medicinal compound derived from Diospyros lotus, with known anti-cancer, anti-tubercular, and anti-leishmanial activities against Leishmaniadonovani. However, the effects of diospyrin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced macrophage
Two dimeric naphthoquinones, diospyrin and isodiospyrin, isolated from the root of Diospyros piscatoria (Gurke), a common ingredient in several folk medicines, have been shown to have a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of diospyrin against
World health organization has called for academic research and development of new chemotherapeutic strategies to overcome the emerging resistance and side effects exhibited by the drugs currently used against leishmaniasis. Diospyrin, a bis-naphthoquinone isolated from Diospyros montana Roxb., and
A preparative overpressure layer chromatography (OPLC) method was successfully used for the separation of two new natural compounds, 4-hydroxy-5,6-dimethoxynaphthalene-2-carbaldehyde (1) and 12,13-didehydro-20,29-dihydrobetulin (2) together with nine known compounds, including 7-methyljuglone (3),
Two new dimeric naphthoquinones, 5',8'-dihydroxy-6,6'-dimethyl-7,3'-binaphthyl-1,4,1',4'-tetraone (1; Di-naphthodiospyrol D) and 5',8'-dihydroxy-5,8-dimethoxy-6,6'-dimethyl-7,3'-binaphthyl-1,4,1',4'-tetraone (2; Di-naphthodiospyrol E), along with known naphthoquinones diospyrin (3) and 8-hydroxy
Root bark of West African tree Diospyros batocana Hiern, Ebenaceae, was examined. On the basis of chromatographic and spectral analysis it was shown to contain the naphtaquinones 7-methyljuglone, 2-methylnaphthazarin, biramentaceone, rotundiquinone, mamegakinone, diospyrin, diosquinone, isodiospyrin
Fourteen compounds isolated from Stephania venosa, Prismatomeris sessiliflora, Diospyros montana and Murraya siamensis were tested for their antimalarial potential. The 6a,7-dehydroaporphine alkaloids dehydrostephanine and dehydrocrebanine showed potent activity with IC50 values of 40 and 70 ng/ml,
The aim of this study was to explore the extract/fractions and compounds of Diospyros lotus against various Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria strain. The results showed marked susceptibility of extract and its fractions against test pathogens. Among them, chloroform fraction was most dominant
Diospyros lotus L. is traditionally used in various diseases including pain and sleep disorders. The pain and inflammation are the common problems, which are treated with various synthetic analgesic drugs, and associated the side effects. The natural products have gained significant importance over
Six quinones were isolated from the chloroform extract of the roots of Diospyros sylvatica and identified as 2-methyl-anthraquinone, plumbagin, diosindigo, diospyrin, isodiospyrin and microphyllone. The effect of the root extract on the orientation and survival of the subterranean termite,
