A series of five (6a-8b) novel polyhalogenated derivatives and an interesting ester (9a) derivative have been synthesized from cleomiscosin A methyl ether. All the six derivatives were subjected to in silico QSAR modeling and docking studies and later the predicted results were confirmed through in
OBJECTIVE
p-Coumaryl alcohol-gamma-O-methyl ether (CAME) was isolated from Alpinia galanga and shown to contain a phenylpropanoid structure similar to p-coumaryl diacetate (CDA). CDA is known to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, but the biochemical activities of CAME are unknown.
The anti-inflammatory activity of hispidol A 25-methyl ether (hispidol A 25-Me ether), a triterpenoid isolated from Ponciri Immaturus Fructus, was studied in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 murine macrophages. It was revealed that hispidol A 25-Me ether dose-dependently inhibits nitric
In spite of the latest therapeutic developments, no effective treatments for handling critical conditions such as acute lung injuries have yet been found. Such conditions, which may result from lung infections, sepsis, multiple trauma, or shock, represent a significant challenge in The anti-inflammatory activities of the isolated flavonoids, quercetin 3-O-methyl ether (1), kaempferol (2), and quercetin (3), of Rhamnus nakaharai, and anthraquinone, frangulin B (4), of Rhamnus formosana, were assessed in vitro by determining their inhibitory effects on the chemical mediators
Six novel cleomiscosin A (a coumarino-lignoid), derivatives have been synthesized for the first time by using electrophilic substitution reaction to give nuclear nitrated and halogenated derivatives of cleomiscosin A in good yields. Structures of these compounds were established on the basis of IR,
Cytokines and other inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandin E₂ (PGE₂) and nitric oxide (NO) produced by cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), respectively, activate and drive inflammation and therefore serve as targets for anti-inflammatory drug development.

The propolis is extensively used in folk medicine in natura or to prepare pharmaceutical formulations since ancient time to improve health or prevent diseases, among them gastrointestinal disorders. Aiming to contribute in the scientific validation about the popular use of Brazilian Green
OBJECTIVE
When polymer brushes are applied as the inner coating for artificial blood vessels, they may induce unwanted responses in vascular endothelial cells continuously exposed to the polymer surface. Accordingly, we have examined the in vitro effect of non-biofouling concentrated polymer brushes
In Central America leaf extracts from the Asteraceae Tithonia diversifolia are used externally for the treatment of haematomas and wounds. Therefore, the main sesquiterpene lactones (Sls) of this species growing in Costa Rica, diversifolin (1), diversifolin methyl ether (2), and tirotundin (3), were
The Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling protocol was applied to the synthesis of 1a, the C-glycoside analogue of PsA methyl ether. This marks the first construction of a C-glycoside for this class of marine natural products, thereby offering an opportunity to compare its bioactivity to the natural
A chemical and biological validation of the traditional use of Hyoscyamus niger seeds as anti-inflammatory drug has been established. The methanolic extract of seeds of H. niger (MHN) was evaluated for its analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activities in experimental animal models at
Baccharis dracunculifolia DC (Asteraceae) is a Brazilian medicinal plant popularly used for its antiulcer and anti-inflammatory properties. This plant is the main botanical source of Brazilian green propolis, a natural product incorporated into food and beverages to improve health. The present study
Bioassay-guided isolation of anti-inflammatory compounds from the methanol extract of Myrsine seguinii yielded an anti-inflammatory compound (1). The structure of compound 1 was elucidated to be 3-geranyl-4-hydroxy-5-(3'-methyl-2'-butenyl)benzoic acid on the basis of its spectroscopic data. Compound
A chemical study of the alga Cystoseira usneoides has led to the isolation of six new meroterpenoids, cystodiones A-F (1-6), together with six known related compounds (7-12). The structures of the new metabolites have been established by spectroscopic techniques. In antioxidant assays all of the
