Novel ceramides from aerial parts of Saussurea involucrata Kar. et. Kir.

24 Sep 2009 Novel ceramides, together with nine known compounds were isolated from aerial parts of the Saussurea involucrata Kar. et. Kir. The novel structures were determined by spectroscopic methods and microscale chemical degradation. The ceramides showed ... Read more...

Cytotoxic, cytoprotective and antioxidant activities of resveratrol and analogues in C6 astroglioma cells in vitro.

6 Sep 2009 Resveratrol (3,4',5-trans-trihydroxystilbene) and other hydroxystilbenes exhibit in vitro antioxidant as well as prooxidant effects. The antioxidant properties are assumed to enable these compounds to protect cells from oxidative damage. The ... Read more...

Leucophyllidine, a cytotoxic bisindole alkaloid constituted from the union of an eburnan and a new vinylquinoline alkaloid.

Sep 2009 A cytotoxic bisindole alkaloid possessing an unprecedented structure constituted from the union of an eburnan half and a novel vinylquinoline alkaloid has been isolated from Leuconotis griffithii. The structure was established by analysis of the ... Read more...
