Pinosylvin suppresses LPS-stimulated inducible nitric oxide synthase expression via the MyD88-independent, but TRIF-dependent downregulation of IRF-3 signaling pathway in mouse macrophage cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Since inhibitors of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) have been considered as potential anti-inflammatory and cancer chemopreventive agents, we have evaluated the inhibitory effects on the production of nitric oxide (NO) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cells

Antifungal activity of stilbenes in in vitro bioassays and in transgenic Populus expressing a gene encoding pinosylvin synthase.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effect of two stilbene compounds, pinosylvin and resveratrol, on the growth of several fungi was evaluated in plate tests. Wood decay tests were carried out with birch and aspen samples impregnated with the two stilbenes. In plate experiments, resveratrol had an enhancing effect on growth at

Screening analyses of pinosylvin stilbenes, resin acids and lignans in Norwegian conifers.

Only registered users can translate articles

The content and distribution of stilbenes and resin acids in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and spruce (Picea abies), sampled in central Norway, have been examined. The contents of pinosylvin stilbenes in pine heartwood/living knots were 0.2-2/2-8 %(w/w). No stilbenes could be detected in spruce

Molecular cloning and functional expression of a stress-induced multifunctional O-methyltransferase with pinosylvin methyltransferase activity from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.).

Only registered users can translate articles

Formation of pinosylvin (PS) and pinosylvin 3-O-monomethyl ether (PSM), as well as the activities of stilbene synthase (STS) and S-adenosyl-1-methionine (SAM):pinosylvin O-methyltransferase (PMT), were induced strongly in needles of Scots pine seedlings upon ozone treatment, as well as in cell

The O-methyltransferase PMT2 mediates methylation of pinosylvin in Scots pine.

Heartwood extractives are important determinants of the natural durability of pine heartwood. The most important phenolic compounds affecting durability are the stilbenes pinosylvin and its monomethylether, which in addition have important functions as phytoalexins in active defense. A substantial

Pinosylvin and monomethylpinosylvin, constituents of an extract from the knot of Pinus sylvestris, reduce inflammatory gene expression and inflammatory responses in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) is known to be rich in phenolic compounds, which may have anti-inflammatory properties. The present study investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of a knot extract from P. sylvestris and two stilbenes, pinosylvin and monomethylpinosylvin, isolated from the extract.

Austrian pine phenolics are likely contributors to systemic induced resistance against Diplodia pinea.

Only registered users can translate articles

The molecular basis of the systemic induced resistance (SIR) phenotype known to occur in Austrian pine (Pinus nigra J.F. Arnold) in response to the tip blight and canker pathogen Diplodia pinea (Desm.) remains unclear. Specialized metabolites such as phenolics are considered to be an important

Separation and isolation of major polyphenols from maritime pine (Pinus pinaster) knots by two-step centrifugal partition chromatography monitored by LC-MS and NMR.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pine knots are a rich source of lignans, flavonoids and stilbenes. These bioactive compounds are widely known for their roles to combat human disorders but also to protect plants against pathogens. In order to gain knowledge inside their potential activities, a suitable isolation and purification of

In vivo and in vitro mixed-function oxygenase activity and vitellogenin induction in fish and in fish and rat liver cells by stilbenes isolated from scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris).

Only registered users can translate articles

Many types of pulp and paper mill effluents have the ability to induce mixed-function oxygenase (MFO) activity and vitellogenin (VTG) protein in exposed male fish. The search for the compounds responsible for MFO induction has led to several classes of compounds, among them retene and stilbenes. The

Pine stilbene synthase cDNA, a tool for probing environmental stress.

Only registered users can translate articles

Stilbene synthase cDNAs were isolated from a pine (Pinus sylvestris) cDNA library. Poly(A)+RNA required for the preparation was obtained from young seedlings challenged with Botrytis cinerea. A full-length cDNA encoding pinosylvin-forming stilbene synthase was sequenced, and the deduced amino acid

Stilbene synthase from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris).

Only registered users can translate articles

Stilbene synthases are named according to their substrate preferences. By this definition, enzymes preferring cinnamoyl-CoA are pinosylvin synthases, and proteins with a preference for phenylpropionyl-CoA are dihydropinosylvin synthases. We investigated the assignment of a stilbene synthase cloned

Qualitative and quantitative determination of extractives in heartwood of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) by gas chromatography.

Only registered users can translate articles

A method for quantitative determination of extractives from heartwood of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) using gas chromatography (GC) with flame ionization detection (FID) was developed. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.03 mg/g wood and the linear range (r = 0.9994) was up to 10 mg/g with

A UV resonance Raman (UVRR) spectroscopic study on the extractable compounds in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) wood. Part II. Hydrophilic compounds.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hydrophilic extracts of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) heartwood and sapwood and a solid Scots pine knotwood sample were studied by UV resonance Raman spectroscopy (UVRRS). In addition, UVRR spectra of two hydrophilic model compounds (pinosylvin and chrysin) were analysed. UV Raman spectra were

Nutritional and pathogenic fungi associated with the pine engraver beetle trigger comparable defenses in Scots pine.

Only registered users can translate articles

Conifer bark beetles are often associated with fungal complexes whose components have different ecological roles. Some associated species are nutritionally obligate fungi, serving as nourishment to the larvae, whereas others are pathogenic blue-stain fungi known to be involved in the interaction

Isolation and identification of cytotoxic compounds from the wood of Pinus resinosa.

Only registered users can translate articles

Methanol extracts of wood from Pinus resinosa were found to be selectively cytotoxic against human lung carcinoma cells, A549 (IC50 41 +/- 6 microg/mL), human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells, DLD-1 (IC50 47 +/- 4 microg/mL) in comparison with healthy cells, WS1 (IC50 130 +/- 11 microg/mL). Five
