Ivalin, an eudesmane-type sesquiterpene compound, was isolated from the Chinese herb Carpesium divaricatum in our chemistry group. In this study, we investigated the anti-migration and anti-invasion activities and underlying mechanisms of Ivalin in breast cancer cells in vitro. Cell viability was
Ivalin, a natural compound isolated from Carpesium divaricatum, showed excellent microtubule depolymerization activities among human hepatocellular carcinoma in our previous work. Here, we investigated its functions on mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC-7721
Three new sesquiterpene lactone dimers (SLDs), carpedilactones E-G (1-3), together with two known monomeric units, ivalin (4) and alantolactone (5), were isolated from the acetonic extract of Carpesium macrocephalum. Their chemical structures were elucidated by IR, UV, HR-ESI-MS, NMR 1D and 2D
From the methanol extract of the whole plants of Carpesium macrocephalum F(R). et S(AV)., five sesquiterpene lactones (1: carabron, 2: tomentosin, 3: ivalin, 4: 4H-tomentosin, 5: carabrol) and three terpenoids (6: loliolide, 7: vomifoliol, 8: citrusin C) were isolated. The structures and
