Journal ArticleDOI
DNA microarray for identification of the herb of dendrobium species from Chinese medicinal formulations.
TL;DR: A DNA microarray constructed by incorporating the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 sequences of 16 Dendrobium species was able to detect the presence of D. nobile in a Chinese medicinal formulation containing nine herbal components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lignans from Dysosma versipellis with inhibitory effects on prostate cancer cell lines.
Ren-Wang Jiang,Jin-Rong Zhou,Po-Ming Hon,Song-Lin Li,Yan Zhou,Linglin Li,Wen-Cai Ye,Hong-Xi Xu,Pang-Chui Shaw,Paul Pui-Hay But +9 more
TL;DR: C cultivation of D. versipellis in suitable locations may serve as an alternative source for podophyllotoxin production, and Aryltetralin lignans 2-4 showed the most potent inhibitory activities against the growth of androgen-sensitive (LNCaP) and androgens-independent (PC-3) human prostate cancer cell lines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antiviral triterpenoids from the medicinal plant Schefflera heptaphylla
TL;DR: An antiviral assay using a cytopathic effect (CPE) reduction method showed that the two triterpenoids possessed broader antiviral activity against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) with a similar 50% inhibition concentration (IC50) value.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zhen-Dan He,Kit-Man Lau,Paul Pui-Hay But,Ren-Wang Jiang,Hui Dong,Shuang-Cheng Ma,Kwok-Pui Fung,Wen-Cai Ye,Han-Dong Sun +8 more
TL;DR: Phytochemical investigation of the ethanol extract of the leaves of Ligustrum robustum led to the isolation of three new glycosides, ligurobustosides M, N, and O, which showed stronger antioxidant effects than the standard, trolox.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antitussive effects of Stemona tuberosa with different chemical profiles.
Yan-Tong Xu,Po-Ming Hon,Ren-Wang Jiang,Ling Cheng,Sheng-Hong Li,Yiu-Pong Chan,Hong-Xi Xu,Pang-Chui Shaw,Paul Pui-Hay But +8 more
TL;DR: Results suggested that non-stenine-type of Stemona alkaloids also contributed to the antitussive properties in guinea pigs, adding difficulty in ensuring quality control in botanical products.
