In the present study, we investigated the effect and molecular mechanism of ethyl caffeate (EC), a natural phenolic compound isolated from Ligularia fischeri, on human ovarian cancer cell proliferation and progression. EC-mediated inhibition of cell proliferation in SKOV-3 cells was accompanied by

Essential oils are volatile compounds extracted from various plants by distillation, hydrodiffusion or compression. In recent years, the use of essential oils has gained popularity. Many pharmaceutical, cosmetic, sanitary, food industry and agriculture studies have revealed that essential oils exert

Wild herbs, which are edible plants that grow in mountainous areas, have diverse biological effects such as anti-obesity and anti-cancer activities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the total phenolic and flavonoid contents as well as the antioxidant activity of methanol extracts of Aster

Ligularia fischeri, indigenous to eastern Asia, has been used as a traditional herbal medicine. Ligularia fischeri reportedly possesses a number of biological activities such as antimutagenic, antioxidant, antigenotoxic, and anti-inflammation. This study demonstrated the effects of

During the course of screening natural sesquiterpenoids for new antitumor agents, two novel compounds, fischerisin A (1) and fischerisin B (2), were isolated from the roots of Ligularia fischeri. Their structures were elucidated by interpretation of their IR, high resolution-mass spectrometry

A considerable amount of bioactive compounds have been used for the biopharmaceutical engineering to help human health and nutrition. Hairy root culture (HRC) or transgenic root is a favourable alternative technique for phytochemical production. Ligularia fischeri is a significant source of

Two new compounds, a stigmasterol (1) and an eremophilenolide (2), were isolated from Ligularia dolichobotrys (Diels) together with ten known sesquiterpenoids, two known triterpenes and five known sterols. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (IR, MS, 1H, 13C and 2D NMR). In

BACKGROUND Ligularia przewalskii (Maxim.) Diels (LP) (called zhangyetuowu in Chinese), is generally found in moist forest areas in the western regions of China. The root, leaves and flower of LP are utilized as a common traditional medicine in China. It has been utilized conventionally in herbal
