Sesquiterpene Lactone in Nanostructured Parenteral Dosage Form Is Efficacious in Experimental Chagas Disease

The Antiinflammatory Sesquiterpene Lactone

Sesquiterpene lactone variability in Parthenium hysterophorus L.

A population of Parthenium hysterophorus collected in Salta Argentina afforded two ambrosanolides, 2beta-hydroxycoronopilin and 1alpha,2beta,4beta-trihydroxypseudoguaian-6beta,12-olide, as well as five known others. Plants of the fructification from those transplanted from the Puna Argentina at 1200 m over the sea level produced hymenin.

Indeterminate form of Chagas disease.

Aromaticine, a sesquiterpene lactone from Amblyopappus pusillus

AROMATICINE (SYSTEMATIC NAME: 4a,8-dimethyl-3-methyl-ene-3,3a,4,4a,7a,8,9,9a-octa-hydro-azuleno[6,5-b]furan-2,5-dione), C(15)H(18)O(3), is a natural lactone isolated from Amblyopappus pusillus. The mol-ecular structure and conformation agree with the results of Romo, Joseph-Nathan & Díaz [(1964 ▶). Tetra-hedron, 20, 79-85]. The fused-ring system contains a seven-membered ring in a twist-boat co...

Cynaratriol, a sesquiterpene lactone from Centaurea musimomum

THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 3,8-dihydr-oxy-3-(hydroxy-meth-yl)-9-methyl-6-methyl-enedeca-hydro-azuleno[4,5-b]furan-2(3H)-one], C(15)H(22)O(5), is a sesquiterpene lactone showing the typical tricyclic guaianolide skeleton which has been isolated, together with other related metabolites, from the plant Centaurea musimomum. The present study confirms the mol-ecular structure, assigned by ...
