Elucidation of terpenoid metabolism in Scoparia dulcis by RNA-seq analysis
Scoparia dulcis biosynthesize bioactive diterpenes, such as scopadulcic acid B (SDB), which are known for their unique molecular skeleton. Although the biosynthesis of bioactive diterpenes is catalyzed by a sequence of class II and class I diterpene synthases (diTPSs), the mechanisms underlying this process are yet to be fully identified. To elucidate these biosynthetic machinery, we performed ...
متن کاملComparative analysis of the terpenoid biosynthesis pathway in Azadirachta indica and Melia azedarach by RNA-seq
Azadirachta indica (neem) is the only source of azadirachtin, which is known for its insecticide activity. Melia azedarach is a related species of A. indica, widely distributed in the south of China. In this study, the leaf transcriptomes of these two Meliaceae plants were sequenced. More than 40 million clean reads were generated from each library. About 80 % of A. indica reads were mapped to ...

In a continuation of our studies on biologically active substances of the Paraguayan crude drug,"Typychd kuratir(Scoparia dulcis L.,Scrophulariaceae),1)we isolated a polyoxygenated flavone(1),which was found to exhibit cytotoxicity against human cultured cells such as HeLa 229,2)HeLa S3,3)HEp-2,4)FL,5)Chang liver6)and intestine 4077)cells. Some flavonoids have been reported to be cytotoxic to K...
متن کاملAnti-hyperglycemic effect of Scoparia dulcis in streptozotocin induced diabetes
Aqueous extract of Scoparia dulcis could significantly reduce blood sugar levels in white rats which had been previously induced with diabetes by streptozotocin. Extract was administered at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg body weight/twice a day respectively for a period of 3 weeks. Diabetic rats had much reduced body weight than normal rats. Administration of the extracts at the dose of 250 mg/kg b...
متن کاملProtective Effect of Scoparia dulcis on Brain and Erythrocytes
In order to evaluate the protective effect of Scoparia dulcis L. (Scrophulariaceae), a medicinal plant known to have medico-magic power, different extracts were prepared by successive extraction with hexane (HE), chloroform (CE) and methanol (ME) and by a soaking in acetone (80%). These extracts were checked for their protective role against neuroinflammation and erythrocytes haemolysis. They e...
