TL;DR: Three'-Formylgenistein and ellagic acid 4-O-alpha-l-rhamnopyranoside were the most potent compounds against FAS, with IC(50) values of 2.3 and 7.5 microg/mL, respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the absolute configurations of three flavanone-(3→8″)-flavone type biflavonoids, (+)-morelloflavone (1), (+)-volkensiflavone-7-sulfate (2 ), isolated from Rheedia acuminata, were confirmed by circular dichroism as 2 R,3 S, hence clarifying the literature confusion of 2 S,3 R absolute configuration for (+-morelloftlavone.

TL;DR: The best time to harvest Taxus clippings for the production of taxanes (especially 1 and 6) is approximately one month from the beginning of new growth (flush). The date of harvest could vary depending on the geographic location and weather conditions.

TL;DR: The taxane content of the needles of 57 cultivars obtained from five major nurseries in the United States is presented in this article, and the results of these analyses showed that the total “useful” taxanes varied between 0.0232-0.113%, with 1 and 6 being the most abundant taxanes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the absolute configurations of three flavanone-(3→8″)-flavone type biflavonoids, (+)-morelloflavone (1), (+)-volkensiflavone-7-sulfate (2 ), isolated from Rheedia acuminata, were confirmed by circular dichroism as 2 R,3 S, hence clarifying the literature confusion of 2 S,3 R absolute configuration for (+-morelloftlavone.
