Purification of antibacterial proteins from Coffee senna (Senna occidentalis) seeds

Cardiotoxicity of Senna occidentalis in sheep (Ovis aries)

The cardiotoxicity of Coffee senna (Senna occidentalis) was investigated in sheep that were fed diets containing its seeds, which are recognized as the most poisonous part of such weed. Dianthrone, the main toxic component of S. occidentalis, is known to impair mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, leading to myofiber degeneration. In this study, fifteen ewes were fed 0%, 2% or 4% of seeds o...

Anthraquinones from the bark of Senna macranthera.

2-acetyl physcion (2-acetyl-1,8-dihydroxy-6-methoxy-3-methyl-9,10-anthraquinone, 2), a rare anthraquinone, was isolated from Senna macranthera var. nervosa (Vogel) H.S. Irwin & Barneby (Fabaceae). The chemical structure was elucidated and all (1)H and (13)C NMR chemical shifts were assigned by NMR one- ((1)HNMR, {(1)H}-(13)CNMR, and APT-(13)CNMR) and two (COSY, NOESY, HMQC and HMBC) dimensional...

MOSAIC IN Senna occidentalis IN SOUTHERN BRAZIL INDUCED BY A NEW STRAIN OF Soybean mosaic virus

Plants of Senna occidentalis (sin. Cassia occidentalis) with mosaic symptoms were collected near a soybean (Glycine max) field where some plants exhibited symptoms of mosaic and blistering. A preliminary examination of leaf tissue from diseased S. occidentalis by electron microscopy revealed the presence of pinwheel inclusions as well as long flexuous particles, indicating the presence of a pot...
