The antidepressant-like effects of psoralidin isolated from the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia were investigated in the forced swimming test (FST) in ICR strain of male mice. Psoralidin significantly decreased immobility time and increased swimming behavior without altering climbing behavior in the
A cytotoxic coumestan derivative, psoralidin (1), was isolated from the seed of Psoralea corylifolia. The IC50 values of 1 against SNU-1 and SNU-16 carcinoma cell lines were 53 and 203 micrograms/ml, respectively, indicating cytotoxic activity against stomach carcinoma cell lines.
Quinone reductase (QR) is a protective phase II enzyme against mutagens and carcinogens which is inducible by a number of chemical compounds in plants. This study was carried out to investigate effects of the fractions from the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia on the induction of QR with Hepa 1c1c7
Numerous compounds detected in medical plants and dietary components or supplements possess chemopreventive, antitumor and immunomodulatory properties. Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is an important endogenous anticancer factor that induces apoptosis selectively in
A novel biological activity of psoralidin as an agonist for both estrogen receptor (ER)α and ERβ agonist has been demonstrated in our study. Psoralidin has been characterized as a full ER agonist, which activates the classical ER-signaling pathway in both ER-positive human breast and endometrial
Dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) system plays a causal role in the development and course of depression. Clinically effective antidepressant drugs normalize the disturbed activity of the HPA axis by inhibition of corticotrophin releasing factor gene promoter activity.
A coumestan derivative, psoralidin (1) was found to be a cytotoxic principle of the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia L. (Leguminosae) with the IC50 values of 0.3 and 0.4 microg/ml against the HT-29 (colon) and MCF-7 (breast) human cancer cell lines, respectively. A coumarin, angelicin (2) was also
Upon synaptic stimulation and glutamate release, glutamate receptors are activated to regulate several downstream effectors and signaling pathways resulting in synaptic modification. One downstream intracellular effect, in particular, is the expression of immediate-early genes (IEGs), which have
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents of Psoralea corylifolia.
METHODS
Column chromatography was used in the isolation procedure. The structures of isolated compounds were elucidated by spectral data.
RESULTS
Seven compounds were isolated and their structures were identified as isopsoralen
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents of Psoralea corylifolia.
METHODS
Chromatographic methods were used to separate compounds, and spectroscopic methods were used to determine the structures.
RESULTS
Five compounds were isolated and identified as furano (2", 3", 7, 6)-4'-hydroxyflavanone
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents of the fruits of Psoralea corylifolia L.
METHODS
The constituents were separated and purified by column chromatography with normal phase silica gel and polyamide. Their structures were identified on the basis of physical and spectral data (MS, NMR, HMBC
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B plays a major role in the negative regulation of insulin signaling, and this establishes protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B as an attractive therapeutic target for diabetes. Bioassay-guided fractionation of the EtOAc-soluble extract of the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia
The ethyl acetate-soluble fraction of the methanolic extract from the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia was found to inhibit the release of beta-hexosaminidase, as a marker of antigen-IgE-induced degranulation in RBL-2H3 cells. Sixteen constituents were isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble fraction
OBJECITVE: To established an efficient method for simultaneous quantification of 7 compounds belonging to 4 chemical types in Psoralea corylifolia processed by different methods, and to elucidate variations of 4 kinds of compounds in different processed P. corylifolia.
METHODS
The chromatographic
The methanolic extract from the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia was found to inhibit production of nitric oxide (NO) in lipopolysaccharide-activated mouse peritoneal macrophages. Among the isolated compounds, bavachinin (IC(50)=26 microM), isobavachalcone (17 microM), neobavaisoflavone (ca. 29
