chloranthus fortunei/breast neoplasms

Metastasis is the most insidious aspect of breast cancer, but effective strategies to control this malignant process are still lacking. In previous studies, we screened over 200 extracts from plants of genus Chloranthaceae by bioactivity-guided fractionation, and found that Codonolactone (CLT)

To study sesquiterpenes with anti-metastasis breast cancer activity from Chloranthus henryi, ten sesquiterpenes ,zedoarofuran (1), chlorajapolide D (2), 4β, 8β-dihydroxy-5α(H)-eudesm-7(11)-en-8, 12-olide (3), curcolonol (4), lasianthuslactone A (5), chlomultin C (6),

Codonolactone (CLT), a natural product, is the major bioactive component of Atractylodes lancea, and also found in a range of other medical herbs, such as Codonopsis pilosula, Chloranthus henryi Hemsl and Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz. This sesquiterpene lactone has been demonstrated to exhibit a

BACKGROUND LIM kinase 1 plays an important role in tumor cell invasion and metastasis by regulating architecture of actin cytoskeleton, and inhibiting activity of this kinase may be a promising strategy to prevent cancer cells from distant spread. In our previous studies, we found several extracts

From Chloranthus multistachys, three terpenoids - lupeol (1), henrilabdane B (2), and istanbulin A (3) were isolated. Structures of compounds were established by NMR and MS. We reported here that ISTA (3) suppressed cell invasion, but lupeol (1) and henrilabdane B (2) did not. Furthermore, ISTA

A new lindenane sesquiterpene glucoside named yinxiancaoside A (1), a new, rare bidesmosidic megastigmane sesquiterpene glucoside named yinxiancaoside B (5), and three known sesquiterpene glucosides, chloranoside A (2), pisumionoside (3), and sarcaglaboside A (4), were isolated from the whole plant

A new coumarinolignan glucoside named yinxiancaoside C, along with five known benzofuran lignans, have been isolated from the whole plant of Chloranthus japonicus Sieb. The structures of compounds 1-6 were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic methods including 1D-NMR, 2D-NMR, ESI-MS and
