Preliminary antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities of Amoora cucullata extractives
Amoora cucullata (Meliaceae), a mangrove plant, has folkloric reputation as a medicinal agent in Bangladesh. In this study, the n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts of the stem bark of this plant were subjected to microbiological investigation and brine shrimp lethality bioassay. In case of antimicrobial screening, the ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts appeared to be potent in te...
متن کاملCytotoxic rocaglamide derivatives from Aglaia duppereana.
Phytochemical investigation of Aglaia duppereana flowers led to the isolation of a new rocaglamide derivative and twelve known congeners. The structure of the new compound was unambiguously elucidated by spectroscopic techniques (1D- and 2D-NMR, HRESIMS). The isolated compounds exhibited a potent cytotoxic activity against mouse lymphoma (L5178Y) cells with EC50 values ranging from 5.1 to 54.8 nM.
متن کاملConstituents of Amoora cucullata with TRAIL resistance-overcoming activity.
In search of bioactive natural products for overcoming TRAIL resistance from natural resources, we previously reported a number of active compounds. Bioassay-guided fractionation of mangrove, Amoora cucullata, collected from Sundarbans Mangrove Forest, Bangladesh, led to the isolation of four new compounds (1-4), along with seven known compounds (5-11). Of the isolates, compounds 1, 5, 8, and 9...
متن کاملCytotoxic Compounds from Calotropis gigantea (Linn.) and Amoora rohituka (Roxb.)
Calotropis gigantea (Linn) and Amoora rohituka (Roxb.) have long been used in folkloric medicine for the treatment of various ailments in Bangladesh. The present study was designed to investigate the cytotoxicity of isolated compounds from these two plants. Two compounds, named β-boswellic acid (compound-1) and 2-methoxy-14-calamenenone (compound-2) were isolated from the flowers of Calotropis ...
