چکیده
Three new biphenyls, berbekorin A (1), 2'-hydroxy-3,4,5-trimethoxybiphenyl (2), and 4,5-dihydroxy-3-methoxybiphenyl (3), together with 11 known biphenyls (4-14), were isolated from the n-hexane-soluble fraction of the MeOH extract of the trunk of Berberis koreana. The structures of 1-3 were determined by spectroscopic methods, including 1D and 2D NMR analysis. Compound 1 exhibited cytotoxic activity against the SK-MEL-2 skin melanoma cell line, in particular. Moreover, compounds 2, 5, 6, and 14 inhibited NO production in LPS-activated BV-2 cells, a microglial cell line.

Cytotoxic steroids from the trunk of Berberis koreana.
A new steroid, itesmol 3-O-palmitate (1), along with two known steroids were isolated from the trunk of Berberis koreana. The structure of 1 was determined on the basis of spectroscopic analyses involving 2D NMR and chemical reactions. Compound 1 exhibited potential antiproliferative activity against A549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2, and HCT-15 cell lines (respective IC(50) values of 7.41, 9.20, 4.53, a...
متن کاملCentury-old mystery of Puccinia striiformis life history solved with the identification of Berberis as an alternate host.
The life history of Puccinia striiformis remains a mystery because the alternate host has never been identified. Inoculation of grasses using aeciospores from naturally infected Berberis chinensis and B. koreana resulted in infection on Poa pratensis, producing uredinia typical of stripe rust caused by P. striiformis. Analyses using real-time polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequence confirmed...

متن کاملAnti-inflammatory effects of a methanol extract from Pulsatilla koreana in lipopolysaccharide-exposed rats.
To investigate the therapeutic effect of a Korean herbal medicine Pulsatilla koreana as an anti-septic agent, anti-inflammatory effects of the herbal medicine were determined in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-exposed rats. Treatment with a methanol extract from Pulsatilla koreana significantly inhibited LPS-induced inflammatory responses. Results from ELISA analysis showed that Pulsatilla koreana dec...
