Root constituents of Lactuca sibirica and a comparison of metabolite profiles of L. sibirica and L. tatarica

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2011
Nine known sesquiterpene lactones, including four lactucin-type guaianolides, four costuslactone-type guaianolides and one germacranolide, were isolated from roots of Lactuca sibirica (Asteraceae), six of which were glycoside derivatives.

Convergence of a meshless numerical method for a chemotaxis system with density-suppressed motility [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
This article studies a parabolic-elliptic system modelling the pattern formation in E. coli bacteria in response to a chemoattractant known as acylhomoserine lactone concentration (AHL). The system takes into account certain bacterial strains with motility regulation, and the parameters of the equations represent the bacterial logistic growth, AHL ...

Optimized nanodevice fabrication using clean transfer of graphene by polymer mixture: Experiments and Neural Network based simulations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
In this study, we investigate both experimentally and computationally the molecular interactions of two distinct polymers with graphene. Our experimental findings indicate that the use of a polymer mixture reduces the transfer induced doping and strain in fabricated graphene devices as compared to conventional single polymer wet transfer. We found that

Natural Product Alantolactone Targeting AKR1C1 Suppresses Cell Proliferation and Metastasis in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, characterized by high invasion and metastasis. Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C1 (AKR1C1) plays an important role in cancer cell proliferation and metastasis ...

Catalytic Plasticity of Germacrene A Oxidase Underlies Sesquiterpene Lactone Diversification1[OPEN]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2019
The striking catalytic plasticity of germacrene A oxidase, an evolutionary conserved enzyme in the Asteraceae, has led to the existence of diverse sesquiterpene lactones, including artemisinin.

Sesquiterpene Lactones Containing an α-Methylene-γ-Lactone Moiety Selectively Down-Regulate the Expression of Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 1 by Promoting Its Ectodomain Shedding in Human Lung Adenocarcinoma A549 Cells

open access: yesMolecules
Alantolactone is a eudesmane-type sesquiterpene lactone containing an α-methylene-γ-lactone moiety. Previous studies showed that alantolactone inhibits the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway by targeting the inhibitor of NF-κB (IκB) kinase ...

9-Hydroxyfurodysinin-O-ethyl Lactone: A New Sesquiterpene Isolated from the Tropical Marine Sponge Dysidea arenaria

open access: yesMolecules, 2005
A new sesquiterpene, 9-hydroxyfurodysinin-O-ethyl lactone, has been isolated from a New Caledonian Dysidea arenaria, along with three known compounds. The possible incorporation of the ethyl ether from the extraction solvent is discussed.
