Saponins and Sapogenins
The seeds of Luffa aegyptica Mill, locally known as "ghia torai" (family Cucurbitaceae), have earlier been studied for the saponin and sapogenin contents and found to contain a mixture of colourless saponins which on hydrolysis yields two acid and a neutral sapogenin. The acetates of the two acid genins melted at 266-268" and 176-181" while the neutral genin acetate melted at 262-264O.l The aci...
متن کاملA steroid hormone that extends the lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans.
Removing the germline of Caenorhabditis elegans extends lifespan. This lifespan extension requires the nuclear receptor DAF-12 and the cytochrome P450 DAF-9, suggesting that a lipophilic hormone is involved. Here we show that C. elegans contains several hormonal steroids that are also present in humans, including pregnenolone (3beta-hydroxy-pregn-5-en-20-one; PREG) and other pregnane and andros...
متن کاملSteroid/thyroid hormone receptor genes in Caenorhabditis elegans.
The large family of steroid/thyroid hormone receptor (STR) genes has been extensively studied in vertebrates and insects but little information is available on it in more primitive organisms. All members possess a DNA binding domain of zinc fingers of the C2, C2 type. We have used the polymerase chain reaction with degenerate oligonucleotide primers covering this region to clone three distinct ...
متن کاملSaponins and Sapogenins from Brachiaria decumbens Stapf
Quatro saponinas esteroidais e três sapogeninas foram identificadas das partes aéreas de Brachiaria decumbens. As estruturas desses compostos foram estabelecidas através de métodos químicos e espectroscópicos (RMN de H e C, HMBC, HMQC) como 3 -metóxi-lanost-9(11)-eno (1), diosgenina (2a), iamogenina (2b), 3-O-D-glicopiranosil-24(S)-etil-22E-deidrocolesterol (3a), 3O-D-glicopiranosil-24(R)-etil-...
متن کاملPreliminary pharmacobiological study of new steroidal sapogenins.
The chemotherapeutic study of a limited series of steroidal sapogenins from several endemic species of the flora of the Canary Islands is presented here. On the whole, they possess a very weak antibacterial activity, a slight antifungal effect and one of them, vespertilin, displays interesting cytostatic activity (ID50 = 5 micrograms/ml). A pharmacodynamic screening carried out on this product ...
