Research progress of meliaceous limonoids from 2011 to 2021.
TL;DR: A recent review summarizes the recent research progress in the discovery of new structures, medicinal and agricultural bioactivities, and chem/biosynthesis of limonoids from the plants of the Meliaceae family during the past decade as discussed by the authors .
Journal ArticleDOI
Penitholabene, a rare 19-nor labdane-type diterpenoid from the deep-sea-derived fungus Penicillium thomii YPGA3
TL;DR: To the authors' knowledge, Penitholabene represented the first 19-nor labdane-type diterpenoid found in nature and showed inhibitory effect against α-glucosidase with an IC50 value of 282 μM, being more active than the positive control acarbose.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Untargeted Phytochemical Profile of Three Meliaceae Species Related to In Vitro Cytotoxicity and Anti-Virulence Activity against MRSA Isolates
TL;DR: These findings suggested that both A. polystachya and M. azedarach natural extracts are rich in bioactive compounds, mainly limonoids, phenolics and oxygenated triterpenoids, which can combat MRSA biofilm infections and could be considered as promising sources of therapeutic cytotoxic, antibiofilm and anti-virulence agents.
A New Triterpenoid from Amoora dasyclada
TL;DR: In this article, five compounds were isolated from the stem of Amoora dasyclada and their structures were elucidated as 24, 25-epoxy-tirucall-7-ene-3, 23-dione and β-sitosterol.
Two New Tetranortriterpenoids from Amoora dasyclada
TL;DR: Two new tetranortriterpenoids 3-oxo-24, 25, 26, 27,tranortirucall-7-ene-23(21)-lactone, 3α-hydroxy-24 and 3-β-hydroxyl-24 were isolated from Amoora dasyclada and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic evidences as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: Rhituka and chittagonga, fractionated with petroleum ether, dichloromethane, and ethanol, were explored for their anticancer potential against two breast cancer and three pancreatic cancer cells and the extracts were not cytotoxic to normal fibroblast Hs68 cells, which may be correlated to the specificity of Amoora extracts in targeting cancerous cells.
