During our isolation of biologically active substances from the spores of Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi Houshi, G. lucidum) guided by the inhibitory activity on HL-60 cell proliferation, NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric data indicate the substance contains a mixture of several long chain fatty
OBJECTIVE
Astragaloside (AGS) extracted from radix astragalin (Huangqi) has been considered to be beneficial to liver diseases. In this study, we examined the role played by AGS in alleviating hepatic fibrosis function via protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) mechanisms. We hypothesized that AGS
A toxigenic property has been demonstrated in a Pseudomonas syringae pv. persicae/Prunus persica isolate. Several substances, which are named persicomycins, have been purified in variable quantities from cultures. The structures of four of them were established by NMR and chemical ionization mass
