Bioassay-Guided Isolation and HPLC Quantification of Antiproliferative Metabolites from Stahlianthus thorelii

Bioassay - guided Isolation of Antiproliferative Triterpenoids

Bioassay-guided isolation and identification of antifungal compounds from ginger.

A bioassay-guided isolation of antifungal compounds from an African land race of ginger, Zingiber officinale Roscoe, led to the identification of [6], [8] and [10]-gingerols and [6]-gingerdiol as the main antifungal principles. The compounds were active against 13 human pathogens at concentrations of <1 mg/mL. The gingerol content of the African land race was at least 3 x higher than that of ty...

Bioassay-Guided Isolation and Evaluation of Antiproliferative Effects of (Z)-Ethylidene-4, 6-Dimethoxycoumaran-3-One from Pogostemon Quadrifolius (Benth.)

The aim of the study was to isolate and identify the major cytotoxic principle from plant leaves of Pogostemon quadrifolius (Benth.) and evaluate its antiproliferative potential against human cancer cells. Plant leaves were extracted sequentially with a soxhlet apparatus, using petroleum ether, chloroform and methanol solvents. Petroleum ether and chloroform extracts exhibited antiproliferative...

Bioassay-Guided Isolation of Cytotoxic Isocryptoporic Acids from Cryptoporus volvatus.

The present work constitutes a contribution to the phytochemical investigation of Cryptoporus volvatus aiming to search for effective cytotoxic constituents against tumor cell lines in vivo. Bioassay-guided separation of the ethylacetate extract of C. volvatus afforded four new isocryptoporic acid (ICA) derivatives, ICA-B trimethyl ester (1), ICA-E (2), ICA-E pentamethyl ester (3), and ICA-G (4...

Bioactivity-guided isolation of antiproliferative compounds from Centaurea carduiformis DC

In this study, antiproliferative activity of methanol extract of Centaura carduiformis DC. subsp. carduiformis var. carduiformis DC (CC) was examined against Vero, HeLa and C6 cell lines in 1000 and 500 mg/mL concentrations using the BrdU ELISA assay. The CC root (CCR) has the most effective antiproliferative activity. The root extract was fractionated using various solvent and determined antip...
