α-Asarone inhibits HMG-CoA reductase, lowers serum LDL-cholesterol levels and reduces biliary CSI in hypercholesterolemic rats

TL;DR: It seems that alpha-asarone induced clearance of cholesterol from the bloodstream and that the excess of hepatic cholesterol provided by LDL-cholesterol is diverted to bile sterol secretion via a bile choleresis process.

Sister-chromatid exchange induction produced by in vivo and in vitro exposure to alpha-asarone

TL;DR: The effect of alpha-asarone, a chemical with hypocholesterolemic properties extracted from Guatteria gaumeri, on SCE induction was studied both in human lymphocytes in vitro and in murine bone marrow cells in vivo.

Synthesis and Hypolipidaemic Evaluation of a Series of α-Asarone Analogues Related to Clofibrate in Mice

TL;DR: A series of α‐asarone analogues related to clofibrate, containing an acetic acid group at C‐2 of the aromatic ring, has been prepared as the acids or as the ethyl and methyl esters, which were examined in hyperlipidaemic male mice to evaluate their ability to modify serum lipop protein cholesterol, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol, high‐density cholesterol and triglycerides after oral administration.

Neutral Ionic Liquid [hmim]Br as a Green Reagent and Solvent for the Mild and Efficient Dehydration of Benzyl Alcohols into (E)‐Arylalkenes Under Microwave Irradiation

TL;DR: A mild and efficient, ionic-liquid-assisted, green protocol for the dehydration of benzyl alcohols under microwave irradiation has been developed in this article, which utilizes a neutral and recyclable ionic liquid (1-hexyl-3methylimidazolium bromide) as a reagent.

Ultrasound-assisted convenient synthesis of hypolipidemic active natural methoxylated (E)-arylalkenes and arylalkanones

TL;DR: An ultrasound assisted method was developed for the conversion of toxic methoxylated cis-isomer of arylalkenes into its hypolipidemic active transisomer as discussed by the authors.
