Semisynthesis and biological evaluation of abietane-type diterpenes. Revision of the structure of rosmaquinone.

30 Jul 2009 The new aromatic diterpenes 7beta-O-benzylrosmanol (3), 7beta-O-benzyl-11,12-di-O-methylrosmanol (4), and 7alpha-thiophenylcarnosic acid (5) have been obtained by partial synthesis from carnosol (1), an abundant natural diterpene present in Salvia ... Read more...

Characteristic pathological findings and effects of ecabet sodium in rat reflux esophagitis.

26 Jul 2009 AIM: To explore the pathological findings in the entire esophagus in rats with reflux esophagitis, and the effects of ecabet sodium (ES). METHODS: A rat model of chronic acid reflux esophagitis was used. In the treatment group, ES was administered ... Read more...

Prophylaxis with carnosol attenuates liver injury induced by intestinal ischemia/reperfusion.

12 Jul 2009 AIM: To investigate the possible protective effects of carnosol on liver injury induced by intestinal ischemia reperfusion (I/R). METHODS: Rats were divided randomly into three experimental groups: sham, intestinal I/R and carnosol treatment (n = 18 ... Read more...
