bruceine d/brucea javanica

The present study was designated to ascertain the anthelmintic activity of the dried fruits of Brucea javanica and to isolate and characterise the active constituents. The methanol extract from the fruits of B. javanica showed significant anthelmintic activity against Dactylogyrus intermedius

BACKGROUND Brucea javanica (L.) Merr. is widely distributed throughout the southern parts of China and has been used in traditional medicine to treat a variety of diseases. The objective of the present study was to identify the active antiphytoviral compound in the seeds of B. javanica and evaluate

Systemicity is a desirable property for insecticides. Many phytochemicals show good systemic properties and thus are natural sources of novel systemic insecticidal ingredients. Bruceine D, a quassinoid, was identified in Brucea javanica (L.) Merr. and displayed outstanding systemic properties and

Three active components were isolated from treated dry-fruits of Brucea javanica (L.) Merr by chromatographic methods, and they were identified as Brusatol (I), Bruceine D (II), Bruceosidae A (III) by means of UV, IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR spectroscopic analysis methods.

A new triterpenoid, bruceajavanin C (1), together with bruceosides A and B (2 and 3), bruceines D and E (4 and 5), yadanziosides A and G (6 and 7), (20R)-O-(3)-alpha-L-arabinopyranosylpregn-5-ene-3beta,20-diol (8), and alpha-D-glucopyranoside, (3beta, 20R)-3-hydroxypregn-5-en-20-yl (9) were isolated

A new quassinoid, yadanziolide S (1), was isolated from the seeds of the traditional Chinese medicinal herb, Brucea javanica, along with ten known compounds, flazin, bruceine D, yadanziolide B, bruceoside A, yadanziolide S, yadanzigan, glycerol 1,3-bisoleate, azelaic acid,

Two new quassinoids, javanicolide E (1) and javanicolide F (2), along with fifteen known C-20 quassinoids were isolated from the seeds of Brucea javanica (L.) Merr. The antitobacco mosaic virus (TMV) activity of these quassinoids was screened by the conventional half-leaf and leaf-disk method along

BACKGROUND Brucea javanica (B. javanica) seeds, also known as "Melada pahit" in Indo-Malay region are traditionally used to treat diabetes. The objective of this study was to determine antidiabetic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of B. javanica seeds on nicotinamide (NA)-streptozotocin

BACKGROUND The seeds of Brucea javanica and its aqueous decoction is a traditional medicine consumed by diabetic patients in Malaysia. The daily consumption of B. javanica seeds and it's aqueous decoction causes much concern as the quassinoids and its glycosides from the seeds exhibited various

Bruceines D and E are quassinoids from seeds of Brucea javanica (L.) Merr. exhibiting hypoglycemia effect. The crude drug is used as a traditional medicine by diabetes patients. The aim of this study is to understand the bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of both the bruceines D & E. A rapid and

The fruit of Brucea javanica L. is a common herb used in Chinese medicine for the treatment of a variety of cancers. Our research group has previously identified bruceine D (BD), a quassinoid found abundantly in B. javanica, to have potent cytotoxic effect on a number of pancreatic cancer cell

A new pregnane glycoside, named (20R)-O-(3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-L-arabinopyranosyl-pregn-5-en-3β,20-diol (1), and seven known compounds, brusatol (2), bruceine B (3), bruceine D (4), yadanziolide A (5), bruceine E (6), yadanzioside G (7), and yadanzioside B (8), were isolated from the

Bruceine D (BD) is a natural compound extracted from a Chinese herb Brucea javanica that has been used for anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer treatment. However, little is reported about BD's effects in breast cancer tumorigenesis. In this paper, we aimed to investigate the effect of BD in

Patients with osteosarcoma exhibiting resistance to chemotherapy or presenting with metastasis usually have a poor prognosis. Osteosarcoma stem cells (OSCs) are a potential cause of tumor metastasis, relapse, and chemotherapy resistance. Therefore, it is necessary to develop novel therapeutic drugs,
