Identifying the Key Role of Plutella xylostella General Odorant Binding Protein 2 in Perceiving a Larval Attractant, (E,E)-2,6-Farnesol.

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
There is currently a lack of effective olfaction-based techniques to control diamondback moth (DBM) larvae. Identifying behaviorally active odorants for DBM larvae and exploring their recognition mechanisms can provide insights into olfaction-based ...

The effects of quorum sensing molecule farnesol on the yield and activity of extracellular polysaccharide from Grifola frondosa in liquid fermentation.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2021
A strategy by exogenous addition of quorum sensing molecule farnesol to improve the production, antioxidant activity and antitumor activity of extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) of Grifola frondosa by liquid fermentation was proposed in the study.

Juvenile hormone biosynthesis in moths: synthesis and evaluation of farnesol homologs as alternate substrates of farnesol oxidase

Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2003
The oxidation of farnesol to farnesal is an important step in insect juvenile hormone (JH) biosynthesis and is mediated by one or more alcohol oxidases located within the minute endocrine gland, the corpus allatum. Because lepidopteran insects have the capacity to produce homologous JH structures, the substrate selectivity of farnesol oxidase was ...

ChemInform Abstract: Asymmetric Reduction of Farnesol.

ChemInform, 1987
AbstractTreatment of geraniol (Ia) with LimBH (generated in situ from (III)) followed by H2O2 oxidation provides the alcohol (IIa); the analogous conversion of the butyl ether (Ib) yields the diol (IV) and the isomeric alcohol (V) besides the target compound (IIb).

Allergic contact dermatitis caused by farnesol: clinical relevance

Cutaneous and Ocular Toxicology, 2010
The fragrance material farnesol is cited as an infrequent but important cause of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD). It is included in the fragrance mix II patch series and requires labeling in the European Union if it is used in a consumer product.To review the existing literature to determine the causative role of farnesol in clinical contact allergy ...

ω-Hydroxylation of farnesol by mammalian cytochromes P450

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2004
Studies have shown that mammalian cytochromes p450 participate in the metabolism of terpenes, yet their role in the biotransformation of farnesol, an endogenous 15-carbon isoprenol, is unknown. In this report, [(14)C]-farnesol was transformed to more polar metabolites by NADPH-supplemented mammalian microsomes.

Farnesol abrogates epithelial to mesenchymal transition process through regulating Akt/mTOR pathway.

Pharmacological Research, 2019
Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) refers to a phenomenon through which epithelial cells develop the metastatic and invasive potential, which are closely related to carcinogenesis.

Physicochemical and biological assessment of flowable resin composites incorporated with farnesol loaded halloysite nanotubes for dental applications.

Journal of The Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2020
The aim of this study was to fabricate flowable resin composites, by incorporating Farnesol loaded Halloysite Nanotubes (Fa-HNT) as a filler and evaluate their physicochemical as well as biological properties.

Two farnesol derivatives from Cousinia adenostica

Phytochemistry, 1987
Abstract The aerial parts of Cousinia adenostica afforded, in addition to widespread compounds, cynaropicrin, chlorojanerin and janerin as well as two new farnesol derivatives, 5,8,12-trihydroxyfarnesol and 12-acetoxy-5,8-dihydroxyfarnesyl acetate.

Alkaline pH enhances farnesol production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2009
External environments affect prenyl alcohol production by squalene synthetase-deficient mutant Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 64031. Cultivation of the yeast in medium with an initial pH ranging from 7.0 to 8.0 increased the amount of secreted farnesol (FOH).
