Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that is characterized by infiltration of mononuclear lymphocytes into the intima through the expression of adhesion molecules on the arterial wall. In the present study, we report the inhibitory effects of two diarylheptanoids, 5-O-methylhirsutanonol

Structural differences in diarylheptanoids analogues from Alnus viridis and Alnus glutinosa influence their activity and selectivity towards cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Diarylheptanoids represent a group of plant secondary metabolites that possess multiple biological properties and are increasingly recognized for their therapeutic potential. A comparative study was performed on structurally analogous diarylheptanoids isolated from the bark of green (Alnus viridis)

Crown gall tumorigenesis, integration and expression of T-DNA encoded genes from Agrobacterium tumefaciens were investigated in 9 clones of Alnus glutinosa, A. incana and Betula papyrifera. Tumor formation on in vitro shoots was frequent in all clones with strain Ach5 and present in 8 clones with

Effect of topical application and intraperitoneal injection of oregonin on atopic dermatitis in NC/Nga mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

The diarylheptanoid, oregonin (ORE), which was isolated from the bark of Alnus japonica Steudel that grows natively in Korea, has been known to exert antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and immune response inhibitory effects. The antioxidative effect of ORE was observed on the superoxide

Antioxidative activity of diarylheptanoids from the bark of black alder (Alnus glutinosa) and their interaction with anticancer drugs.

Only registered users can translate articles

Diarylheptanoids belong to polyphenols, a group of plant secondary metabolites with multiple biological properties. Many of them display antioxidative, cytotoxic, or anticancer actions and are increasingly recognized as potential therapeutic agents. The aim of this study was to evaluate antioxidant

Cytotoxic activity of hirsutanone, a diarylheptanoid isolated from Alnus glutinosa leaves.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The low efficacy of cancer therapy for the treatment of patients with advanced disease makes the development of new anticancer agents necessary. Because natural products are a significant source of anticancer drugs, it is important to explore cytotoxic activity of novel compounds from

Augmentation of macrophage antitumor activities and nitric oxide production by oregonin.
