Triterpenes of Centaurea ptosimopappoides

Phytochemistry, 1997
The roots of Centaurea ptosimopappoides afforded two new triterpenes; a new hopane derivative, 17β,21β-epoxy-16α-ethoxyhopan-3β-ol and a new baccharane type triterpene, 3β-acetoxy-17,24-dioxobaccharane. The known compounds, 17β,21β-epoxyhopan-3β-ol, 3β-acetoxyhop-17(21)-ene and 3β-acetoxy-erythrodiol were also isolated.

Bioactive Phytochemical Compounds in Medicago sativa L. (Alfalfa): A Systematic Review of Biological Properties and Therapeutic Relevance in Nutraceutical and Functional Food Implications

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medicago sativa L. (alfalfa) harbors a remarkably diverse reservoir of bioactive secondary metabolites. Flavonoids, isoflavones, and triterpenoid saponins dominate its bioactivity landscape, driving potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, antimicrobial, estrogenic, hypolipidemic, and cytotoxic actions through redox modulation, membrane ...

Absolute Configuration and Biological Evaluation of Novel Triterpenes as Possible Anti-Inflammatory or Anti-Tumor Agents

Molecules, 2022
Two new compounds, ardisiapunine B (1) and ardisiapunine C (2), were isolated from Ardisia lindleyana D. Dietr. Their structures were examined using HR–ESI–MS, IR, (1D, 2D) NMR spectroscopic analyses, single–crystal X–ray diffraction, and ECD calculation.

A prelude report on molecular docking of HER2 protein towards comprehending anti-cancer properties of saponins from Solanum tuberosum [PDF]

, 2012
Saponins are extensively known for many biological activities e.g. antimicrobial, anti-palatability, anti-cancer and hemolytic. As cancer cells have a more cholesterol-like compound in their membrane structure the saponins bind cholesterol due to their ...

Fluorescent light and sunlight radiations may improve rice bran oil colour and influence its oxidative stability and chemical composition

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The influence of pretreatment of rice bran oil using fluorescent and sunlight radiations on its colour and their influence on its chemical composition and oxidative stability were assessed. Rice bran oil was stored under sunlight, fluorescent light and ambient conditions for 60 days. Oil samples were collected every 15 days for analysis.
