TL;DR: A bioactivity-guided phytochemical research was performed on the traditional Chinese medicine "Awei", that exhibited a significant inhibitory effect on nitric oxide production in over-activated microglia cells, and identified sixteen bioactive sesquiterpene coumarins in the effective extract of Ferula sinkiangensis.

TL;DR: In this paper, three kinds of hydrolysis methods were employed to find bioactive theasaponin derivatives by structure modification on the sugar part and acyl groups, and compounds 7, 12 and 14 were selected as potential QR inducing agents with IR value at 2.87, 3.02 and 2.33.

TL;DR: A bioactivity-oriented phytochemical research of Caragana turfanensis Kom.

TL;DR: 16 bioactive MRAs from Millettia pulchra Kurz var-laxior (Dunn) Z.Wei, also called Yulangsan as a famous Zhuang medicine showed to have NQO1 inducing activity, and compounds 4 and 14 interact with N QO1 at Gly 149, Gly 150, Phe 106, Typ 105 and His 161, revealed by molecular docking studies.

TL;DR: Five chalcanes isolated from the leaves of Millettia pulchra (Benth) Kurzvar-laxior (Dunn) Z. Wei, a traditional Zhuang medicine, established their chemical structures by extensive analysis of NMR, mass spectrometry and ECD spectra.
