voacangine/tabernaemontana

Tabernaemontana alba and Tabernaemontana arborea are Apocynaceae species used in Mexican traditional medicine for which little phytochemical information exists. In this study, preliminary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analyses of different organs obtained from wild plants of both species

Fractionation of the sap of Tabernaemontana arborea, guided by cytotoxicity against the P-388 lymphocytic leukemia, yielded the known indole alkaloids voacangine, voacamine, and epivoacorine as the major cytotoxic constituents.

Several species from the Apocynaceae family, such as Tabernanthe iboga, Voacanga africana, and many Tabernaemontana species, produce ibogan type alkaloids, some of which present antiaddictive properties. In this study, we used gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) to examine the efficiency of

The isolation of the alkaloids from two different samples of stem bark of Tabernaemontana psorocarpa is described. Both samples contained 16-epi-isositsirikine as the major alkaloid but differed from each other in the number and quantity of the other alkaloids. The following minor alkaloids were

Flowers of Tabernaemontana divaricata (L.) R. Br., (Apocynaceae) are used in traditional medicine for analgesic property. The present study was performed to isolate the active principles and investigate the mechanisms involved in the anti-nociception caused by T. divaricata flower methanolic extract

Four alkaloids, voacangine (1), isovoacangine (2), coronaridine (3), and coronaridine hydroxyindolenine (4), were isolated from the MeOH extract of Tabernaemontana divaricata aerial parts by activity-guided fractionation for Wnt signal inhibitory activity. Compounds 1-4 exhibited TCF/β-catenin

Virtual Screening and Molecular Docking analysis for Tabernaemontana divaricata derived 66 Law Molecular Weight Compounds (LMW) was conducted and to identified and predicted novel molecules as a inhibitor of Streptococcus pneumonia. The investigation has revealed several compounds with optimum

Cancer has become a major public health problem worldwide and the number of deaths due to this disease is increasing almost exponentially. In the constant search for new treatments, natural products of plant origin have provided a variety of new compounds to be explored as antitumor agents.

One new indole alkaloid derivative, 5,6-dioxo-11-hydroxy voacangine (1) together with four known compounds (2-5), were isolated from the fruits of Tabernaemontana inconspicua Stapf (Apocynaceae). Their structures were determined using 1D and 2D NMR, HRESI-MS, and a

The methanol extract of Tabernaemontana penduliflora was found to appreciably inhibit [3H]-estradiol binding to estrogen receptors. Activity-guided fractionation led to the isolation of two known alkaloids, 10-hydroxycoronaridine (1) and its 10-O-methyl ether, voacangine (2). These alkaloids

Ten indole alkaloids from the chloroform extract of stalk of Tabernaemontana australis (Muell. Arg) Miers were tentatively identified by GC-MS, viz., coronaridine (1), voacangine (2), voacangine hydroxyindolenine (3), rupicoline (4), ibogamine (5), ibogaine (6), ibogaline (7), desethyl-voacangine

Tuberculosis is the main cause of death from a single infectious agent. Globally, according to the World Health Organization, in 2018, there were an estimated 1.2 million tuberculosis deaths. Moreover, there is a continuous appearance of drug-resistant strains. Thus, development of new

Two hitherto unknown iboga-type indole alkaloids, namely (3R)-7,19-di-epi-3-methoxytabernoxidine (1) and (3R,19R)-19-hydroxy-3-(2-oxopropyl)voacangine (2), together with eight known alkaloids (3-10), were isolated from the twigs and leaves of Tabernaemontana divaricata. Their structures were

The analgesic components were isolated from a Bornean medicinal plant, Tabernaemontana pauciflora Blume (syn. Ervatamia blumeana Mark gr.), and the major components were identified as coronaridine and 3-(2-oxopropyl)coronaridine. Four minor components were estimated to be 5R- and

The present work aimed to analyze the alkaloid content of the ethanolic extract of Tabernaemontana catharinensis (Apocynaceae family) and its fractions as well as to evaluate their antioxidant and anticholinesterasic activities. The analyses of the ethanolic extract of T. catharinensis by mass
