Ten new geranylated 2-arylbenzofuran derivatives, including two monoterpenoid 2-arylbenzofurans (1 and 2), two geranylated 2-arylbenzofuran enantiomers (3a and 3b), and six geranylated 2-arylbenzofurans (4-9), along with four known 2-arylbenzofurans (10-13) were isolated from the root bark of Morus
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) protein tyrosine phosphatases A and B (PtpA and PtpB) have been recognized as potential molecular targets for the development of new therapeutic strategies against tuberculosis (TB). In this context, we have recently reported that the naturally occurring
Two new quinone derivatives, epoxyquinophomopsins A (1) and B (2), were purified from the EtOAc extract of endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp isolated from Morus cathayana. The structures of both compounds were determined based on 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectral data, as well as by x-ray diffraction
Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most common form of diabetes and has become a major health problem across the world. The root bark of Morus alba L. is widely used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for treatment and management of diabetes. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the enzyme
Mulberry leaf is a common vegetable with a variety of beneficial effects, such as hypoglycemic activity. However, the underlying mechanism of its hypoglycemic effect have not been fully revealed. In this study, two flavonoid derivatives were isolated from mulberry leaves, a new geranylated flavonoid
An organic layer prepared from the Chinese crude drug 'Sang-Bai-Pi' (Morus root bark) was studied in order to identify the inhibitory compounds for protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B). Bioassay-guided fractionation resulted in the isolation of sanggenon C (1), sanggenon G (2), mulberrofuran C
Bioassay-guided fractionation of the chloroform-soluble fraction of Morus bombycis, using an in vitro PTP1B inhibitory assay led to the identification of three 2-arylbenzofurans, albafuran A (1), mulberrofuran W (2) and mulberrofuran D (6), along with three chalcone-derived Diels-Alder products,
Mulberroside A, a glycosylated stilbene, was isolated and identified from the ethanol extract of the roots of Morus alba. Oxyresveratrol, the aglycone of mulberroside A, was produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of mulberroside A using the commercial enzyme Pectinex. Mulberroside A and oxyresveratrol
Six new Diels-Alder type adducts, morusalisins A-F (1-6), were isolated from Morus alba cell cultures. The structures of 1-6 were determined by extensive spectroscopic data analysis, including HRESIMS, NMR, and ECD experiments. Furthermore, compounds 1-6 exhibited potent protein tyrosine phosphatase
Oxidation and enzymatic browning of food can affect nutritional quality, physical and chemical properties, and food safety, emphasizing the utmost importance of discovering new natural antioxidants and anti-browning agents. The present study aimed to characterize the antioxidant and anti-browning
The methanol extract of Morus australis (shimaguwa) acts as a whitening agent due to the inhibition of tyrosinase activity. In order to explore the mechanism(s) of the whitening action, constituents of the 95% methanol extract from the dried stems of shimaguwa were isolated and their skin-whitening
Morusalones A-D (1-4), a new class of Diels-Alder adducts featuring unprecedented 6/7/6/6/6/6 hexacyclic core skeletons with a unique bridged cycloheptenone ring, were isolated from Morus alba cell cultures. The biosyntheses for 1-4 were proposed through an unusual
Among the 2-arylbenzofuran derivatives isolated from Morus alba, the farnesylated 2-arylbenzofuran is a rarer constituent. The derivative has been reported to exert anti-obesity effect; however, its inhibitory effect on protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) has not been investigated. In the
A high molecular mass serine protease has been purified to homogeneity from the latex of Morus indica cv. K2 by the combination of techniques of ammonium sulfate precipitation, hydrophobic interaction chromatography, and size-exclusion chromatography. The protein is a dimer with a molecular mass of
