Phenolic Compounds and Pentacyclic Triterpenes
Decoctions, macerations and fumigations of the stem bark and wood of Terminalia brownii 20 Fresen. are used in traditional medicine for fungal infections and as pesticides on field crops and in 21 traditional granaries in Sudan. In addition, T. brownii is commonly used for protecting wooden 22 houses and furniture. Therefore, using agar disc diffusion and macrodilution methods, eight extracts 2...
متن کاملPentacyclic triterpenoids from olive fruit and leaf.
This work establishes a new procedure for the extraction and analysis of pentacyclic triterpenes, with which fruits and leaves from three Spanish olive cultivars ("Picual", "Hojiblanca", and "Arbequina") has been studied. The leaf contains important amounts of oleanolic acid (3.0-3.5% DW), followed by significant concentrations of maslinic acid and minor levels of ursolic acid, erythrodiol, and...
متن کاملAnti-inflammatory actions of pentacyclic triterpenes.
Pentacyclic triterpenes (PTs) as aglycones of saponins have a wide distribution in plants, and many of them have been used as anti-inflammatory remedies in folk medicine. This survey critically reviews the effects of PTs on proinflammatory mediator signalling pathways and data from experimental animal models and clinical trials. Because the knowledge of their actions is far from being satisfact...
متن کاملFrom Olive Fruits to Olive Oil: Phenolic Compound Transfer in Six Different Olive Cultivars Grown under the Same Agronomical Conditions
Phenolic compounds are responsible of the nutritional and sensory quality of extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO). The composition of phenolic compounds in EVOO is related to the initial content of phenolic compounds in the olive-fruit tissues and the activity of enzymes acting on these compounds during the industrial process to produce the oil. In this work, the phenolic composition was studied in si...
متن کاملBiologically active pentacyclic triterpenes and their current medicine signification
Pentacyclic triterpenes are produced by arrangement of squalene epoxide. These compounds are extremely common and are found in most plants. There are at least 4000 known triterpenes. Many triterpenes occur freely but others occur as glycosides (saponins) or in special combined forms. Pentacyclic triterpenes have a wide spectrum of biological activities and some of them may be useful in medicine...
