Biological factors influencing production of xanthones in Aphloia theiformis
Xanthones, and more specifically mangiferin, are molecules used in cosmetics for their photoprotective and anti-aging properties. The richness in xanthones of Aphloia theiformis leaves, a common shrub in Madagascar, can reach almost 12% (in relation to ...

Xanthones from Cudrania tricuspidata displaying potent α-glucosidase inhibition
We have proven that xanthones 1-8 isolated from the root of C. tricuspidata possess highly potent αα-glucosidase inhibition properties. Compound 1 was identified as a new isoprenylated tetrahydroxy xanthone, 1,3,6,7-tetrahydroxy-2-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-8-(

Effect of Xanthone and 1-Hydroxy Xanthone on the Dipole Potential of Lipid Membranes
Abstract Xanthone (Xa) and 1-OH Xanthone (1-OHXa) in 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) membranes increase the dipole potential. Results with 1,2-di-O-tetradecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (Ether PC), lacking carbonyl groups, indicate that the CO dipole of Xa molecule does not contribute to the increase of dipole potential. Molecular

Cytotoxic Prenylated Xanthones from the Pericarps of Garcinia mangostana
Bioassay-guided fractionation of an ethanol extract of the pericarps of Garcinia mangostana led to the isolation of two new prenylated xanthones, named 1,3,7-trihydroxy-2-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-8-(3-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)-xanthone (1) and 1,3,8 ...

Three Novel Xanthones from Garcinia paucinervis and Their Anti-TMV Activity
Phytochemical investigations of the leaves of Garcinia paucinervis resulted in the isolation of three new xanthones 1–3 and five known analogues 4–8. Structural elucidations of 1–3 were performed by spectral methods such as 1D and 2D (HMQC, HMBC, and ...

Xanthones are a class of heterocyclic natural products that have been widely studied for their pharmacological potential. In fact, they have been serving as scaffolds for the design of derivatives focusing on drug development. One of the main study targets of xanthones is their anticancer activity. Several compounds belonging to this class have already
