Chemical composition and nutritional evaluation as well as physicochemical and functional properties of seed flour of Acacia tortilis (Forssk.) Hayne ssp. raddiana were studied. The results indicated that seeds contained 5.30% moisture, 3.99% ash, 9.19% fat, 14.31% fiber, 27.21% protein and 45.30%

[structure: see text] Bioassay-guided fractionation of the plant Acacia aulacocarpa, guided by a bioassay for Tie2 tyrosine kinase activity, yielded the novel triterpene 3,21-dioxo-olean-18-en-oic acid (1) as the first naturally occurring non-protein inhibitor of Tie2 kinase. The structure of 1 was
