Depsides: lichen metabolites active against hepatitis C virus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
A thorough phytochemical study of Stereocaulon evolutum was conducted, for the isolation of structurally related atranorin derivatives. Indeed, pilot experiments suggested that atranorin (1), the main metabolite of this lichen, would interfere with the ...

Thermal Decomposition of Lichen Depsides

open access: yesZeitschrift für Naturforschung B, 1989
The thermal decomposition of the following lichen depsides has been described: lecanoric acid, gyrophoric acid, evernic acid, perlatolic acid, planaic acid, confluentic acid, atranorin, 4-O-de-methylbarbatic acid, and sekikaic acid. Main reaction products are decarboxylated compounds, phenolic units, rearranged depsides, and xanthones. Triethylammonium

Cytotoxic and cytostatic activity of orcinol-type depsides of lichens

open access: yesУчёные записки Санкт-Петербургского государственного медицинского университета им. Акад. И.П. Павлова
Lichens synthesize unique secondary metabolites, most of which are not found in other living organisms. More than 800 such metabolites are known, which can be found in various parts of the lichen thallus.

Actividad antioxidante de los polifenoles de HYPOGYMNIA TAVARESII D. HAWKSW. & P. JAMES

open access: yesQuímica Nova, 2016
Lichen substances have more than one phenolic hydroxyl group attached to one or more benzene rings, thus qualifying them as polyphenols. The secondary metabolites isolated from the lichen H.

Anticancer Potential of Lichens’ Secondary Metabolites

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Lichens produce different classes of phenolic compounds, including anthraquinones, xanthones, dibenzofuranes, depsides and depsidones. Many of them have revealed effective biological activities such as antioxidant, antiviral, antibiotics, antifungal, and

The Role of Secondary Metabolites and Bark Chemistry in Shaping Diversity and Abundance of Epiphytic Lichens

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022
Diversity of secondary lichen metabolites was studied in epiphytic lichens on six phorophytes—spruce, pine, birch, alder, aspen and poplar in the Middle Urals of Russia. Atranorin, usnic, fumarprotocetraric acid, zeorin, and gyrophoric acid were found in
