Journal ArticleDOI

Antiplasmodial and Cytotoxic Activity of Natural Bisbenzylisoquinoline Alkaloids

TL;DR: As part of an ongoing collaborative effort to discover new antimalarial agents from natural sources, 53 bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids are tested for cytotoxicity against cultured mammalian cells and for antiplasmodial activity against chloroquine-sensitive and chloroquin-resistant clones of Plasmodium falciparum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolically activated steviol, the aglycone of stevioside, is mutagenic

TL;DR: It is clear that a metabolite of an integral component of stevioside is mutagenic; structural features of requisite importance for the expression of mutagening activity include a hydroxy group at position 13 and an unsaturated bond joining the carbon atoms at positions 16 and 17.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical and bioactive constituents from Zanthoxylum simulans

TL;DR: Two new benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids and 6-methyldihydrochelerythrine, together with 23 known compounds, were isolated from the root bark of Zanthoxylum simulans and exhibited cytotoxic activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sulforaphane prevents mouse skin tumorigenesis during the stage of promotion

TL;DR: Topical Sulforaphane inhibited TPA-induced ornithine decarboxylase activity in mouse skin, an obligate step in Tpa-induced promotion of carcinogenesis, linking this molecular mechanism to SF-dependent inhibition of the promotion of tumorigenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constituents of the bark and twigs of Artocarpus dadah with cyclooxygenase inhibitory activity.

TL;DR: From an ethyl acetate-soluble extract of the twigs of the same plant were isolated compound 4 and two new neolignan derivatives, dadahols A and B, as well as 10 known compounds, oxyresveratrol, (+)-catechin, afzelechin-3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside, resveratro, steppogenin, moracin M, isogemichalcone
