Journal Article

Pervilleine A, a novel tropane alkaloid that reverses the multidrug-resistance phenotype.

TL;DR: Pervilleine A, a novel tropane alkaloid obtained from a chloroform extract of Erythroxylum pervillei as the result of bioactivity-guided fractionation, was found to restore the vinblastine sensitivity of cultured multidrug-resistant KB-V1 and CEM/VLB(100) cells, and should be further evaluated for clinical utility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological Activity of Novel Macrocyclic Alkaloids (Budmunchiamines) from Albizia amara Detected on the Basis of Interaction with DNA

TL;DR: Investigation led to the procurement of four sets of alkaloid isolates X1-X4 that were found to be macrocyclic pithecolobine alkaloids that were generally cytotoxic with a battery of cultured mammalian cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quinone-methide triterpenes and salaspermic acid from Kokoona ochracea.

TL;DR: The quinone-methide triterpenes 1-3 exhibited strong but non-specific in vitro cytotoxicity against P-388 murine lymphocytic leukemia cells and a panel of human cancer cell lines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activity-guided fractionation of the seeds of Ziziphus jujuba using a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitory assay

TL;DR: Bioactivity-guided fractionation of petroleum ether- and EtOAc-soluble extracts of the seeds of Ziziphus jujuba using a cyclooxygenase-2 assay as a monitor indicated that the triglyceride, 1,3-di-O-[9(Z)-octadecenoyl]glycerol (3), and a fatty acid mixture of linoleic, oleic and stearic acids, were the major active components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antimutagenic Constituents of Casimiroa edulis with Potential Cancer Chemopreventive Activity

TL;DR: An ethyl acetate extract derived from the seeds of the medicinal and food plant Casimiroa edulis inhibited mutagenicity induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) with Salmonella typhimurium strain TM677 as mentioned in this paper.
