Antimycobacterial coumarins from the sardinian giant fennel (Ferula communis).
Giovanni Appendino,Enrico Mercalli,Nicola Fuzzati,Lolita Arnoldi,Michael Stavri,Simon Gibbons,Mauro Ballero,Andrea Maxia +7 more
TL;DR: The outstanding activity of 1a, its low toxicity, and the evidence for definite structure-activity relationships make this prenylated 4-hydroxycoumarin an interesting antibacterial chemotype worth further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical characterization and biological activity of essential oils from Daucus carota L. subsp. carota growing wild on the Mediterranean coast and on the Atlantic coast
Andrea Maxia,Bruno Marongiu,Alessandra Piras,Silvia Porcedda,Enrica Tuveri,Maria José Gonçalves,Carlos Cavaleiro,Lígia Salgueiro +7 more
TL;DR: The essential oils and supercritical CO(2) extracts of wild Daucus carota L. subsp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Screening of a hundred plant extracts as tyrosinase and elastase inhibitors, two enzymatic targets of cosmetic interest
TL;DR: In this article, a hundred plant extracts were in vitro tested against elastase and tyrosinase, and seventeen extracts resulted strongly active, eleven out of them were capable to inhibit both enzymes, five showed a strong activity only against tyrosinsase and one only against elastsase.
Journal ArticleDOI
