Abstract:
Four new sesquiterpene lactones, two heliangolides, one eudesmanolide and one germacranolide, were isolated by chromatographic fractionation of an acetone extract of Eupatorium kiirunense and named eupakirunsins F, G H and I (1–4). They were identified as 8β-(3-hydroxy-2-methylen-butanoyloxy)-1β,10α-epoxy-3α-hydroxy-6βH,7αH-heliang-4Z,11(13)-dien-6,12-olide (1), 8β-tigloyloxy-1β,10α-epoxy-3β,15-dihydroxy-6βH,7αH-heliang-4Z,11(13)-dien-6,12-olide (2), 8β-tigloyloxy-1 β,3β-dihydroxy-6βH,7αH-eudesman-4(15),11(13)-dien-6,12-olide (3) and 8βtigloyloxy-3βhydroxy-1β,10β-epoxy-14-oxo-6βH,7αH-germacra-

Abstract:
Background and Introduction: Sesquiterpene lactones are a class of secondary metabolite that contains sesquiterpenoids and lactone ring as pharmacophore moiety. A large group of bioactive secondary metabolites such as phytopharmaceuticals belong to this category. From the Asteraceae family-based medicinal plants, more than 5,000 sesquiterpene lactones have been reported so far. Sesquiterpene lactone-based pharmacophore moieties hold promise for broad-spectrum biological activities against cancer, inflammation, parasitic, bacterial, fungal, viral infection and other functional disorders.

Abstract:
Extracts and fractions prepared from five medicinal herbs used to treat cancer in Chinese folk medicine were tested for their antiproliferative activities on five cancer cell lines using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The MTT results revealed that the ethanolic extracts possessed stronger antiproliferative activities than the corresponding aqueous ones. The bioactive fractions of the ethanolic extracts were mostly found in n-hexane and/or ethyl acetate fractions, which by TLC analysis were shown to contain terpenes and/or phenolic compounds. The

Abstract:
Cardoon (Cynara cardunculus L.) is a Mediterranean plant and member of the Asteraceae family that includes three botanical taxa, the wild perennial cardoon (C. cardunculus L. var. sylvestris (Lamk) Fiori), globe artichoke (C. cardunculus L. var. scolymus L. Fiori), and domesticated cardoon (C. cardunculus L. var. altilis DC.). Cardoon has been widely used in the Mediterranean diet and folk medicine since ancient times. Today, cardoon is recognized as a plant with great industrial potential and is considered as a functional food, with important nutritional value, being an interesting source of

Objective: In a previous study, Centaurea aegyptiaca ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts showed potent cytotoxic effects against laryngeal (HEP2) and hepatic (HEPG2) carcinoma cell lines. Additionally, two novel compounds were isolated and identified. The aim of this study is to continue isolating and identifying another compound (s) that may, also, be responsible for this potent biological activity.Methods: C. aegyptiaca dried aerial parts were extracted with ethanol and ethyl acetate. Both extracts were chromatographed separately to afford seven guaianolides that were identified using differe

Abstract:
Serum paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is the most studied member of the group of paraoxonases (PONs). This enzyme possesses three enzymatic activities: lactonase, arylesterase, and paraoxonase activity. PON1 and its isoforms play an important role in drug metabolism as well as in the prevention of cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Although all three members of the PON family have the same origin and very similar amino acid sequences, they have different functions and are found in different locations. PONs exhibit substrate promiscuity, and their true physiological substrates are still not kn
