sclareol/salvia

BACKGROUND Sclareol is a phytochemical used in people's diet in Southeast Asia. OBJECTIVE To investigate the immunotherapeutic effectiveness of Sclareol against breast cancer by direct intraperitoneal injection. METHODS Sclareol was isolated and purified from Salvia sclarea. Effect of Sclareol on

Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) is a progressive disease occurring in elderly postmenopausal women that is characterized by low bone mass and impaired bone quality. Sclareol is a natural product (initially isolated from the leaves and flowers of Salvia Sclarea) that possesses immune-regulation and

Sclareol synthase from Salvia sclarea (SsSS) naturally acts on 8α-hydroxy-copalyl diphosphate (1), stereoselectively adding water to produce (13R)-sclareol (2a), and similarly yields hydroxylated products with manifold other such bicyclic diterpene precursors. Here a key residue for this addition of

Sclareol is a member of labdane type diterpenes mostly used as fragrance ingredient. To enable microbial production of sclareol, synthetic pathways were constructed by incorporating labdenediol diphosphate synthase (LPPS) and terpene synthase (TPS) of the plant Salvia sclarea into Saccharomyces

Filoviruses cause severe hemorrhagic fever in humans. Ebola virus (EBOV) is the most contagious filovirus. Although compassionate treatments have been used during the latest Ebola outbreak, novel anti-EBOV agents are still urgently needed. In this study, sclareol and sclareolide, two natural

A regulatory or suppressor T cell is functionally defined as a T cell that inhibits an immune response by influencing the activity of another cell type. On the other hand, Th1 cells express IFN-gamma and mediate cellular immunity. Sclareol exhibits growth inhibition and cytotoxic activity against a

The title compound, C₂₀H₃₆O₂·CH₃OH [systematic name: (3S)-4-[(S)-3-hy-droxy-3-methyl-pent-4-en-1-yl]-3,4a,8,8-tetra-methyl-deca-hydro-naphthalen-3-ol methanol monosolvate], is a methanol solvate of sclareol, a diterpene oil isolated from the

Sclareol glycol (SG) is a semisynthetic diterpene of the labdanic group. SG is tetranorlabdaniol bivalent alcohol 13, 14, 15, 16-tetranorlabdan-8 alpha, 12-diol, obtained from the plant Salvia sclarea L., grown in Bulgaria. The effects of SG were studied on the level of 3',5'-AMP in:mono-layer

Sclareol is a natural product initially isolated form Salvia sclarea which possesses immune-regulation and anti-inflammatory activities. However, the anti-osteoarthritic properties of sclareol have not been investigated. The present study is aimed at evaluating the potential effects of sclareol in

BACKGROUND Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation triggers skin photoaging processes, which disrupt the normal three-dimensional integrity of skin. UV-induced oxidative stress, both directly and indirectly, stimulates complex signaling pathways. UV radiation activates skin cell surface receptors on a

Sclareol, a promising anticancer labdane diterpene, was isolated from Salvia sclarea. Keeping the basic stereochemistry-rich framework of the molecule intact, a method for the synthesis of novel sclareol analogues was designed using palladium(II)-catalyzed oxidative Heck coupling reaction in order

Sclareol is a high-value natural product obtained by solid/liquid extraction of clary sage (Salvia sclarea L.) inflorescences. Because processes of excretion and accumulation of this labdane diterpene are unknown, the aim of this work was to gain knowledge on its sites of accumulation in planta.

BACKGROUND Sclareol is a diterpene natural product of high value for the fragrance industry. Its labdane carbon skeleton and its two hydroxyl groups also make it a valued starting material for semisynthesis of numerous commercial substances, including production of Ambrox® and related ambergris

The aim of this study was to investigate the antibacterial and the cytotoxic activity of the acetone extract of the flowers of Salvia sclarea and of some natural products (sclareol, sclareolide and ambrox). The antibacterial and the cytotoxic activity were determined by the dilution method.
