چکیده
cosphingolipids from starfish, we have isolated cerebrosides, ceramide-lactosides, sulfatides, and gangliosides having some biological activities. As a continuation of our previous studies, we recently carried out the isolation and structure elucidation of a disialo-ganglioside molecular species, LLG-3, i.e., 8-O-Me-NeuAca2→11NeuGca2→3Galb1→ 4Glcb1→1ceramides, from the starfish Linckia laevigata (Aohitode in Japanese). In this paper, we report on the isolation and characterization of the newly isolated trisialo-ganglioside molecular species LLG-5 from the starfish L. laevigata. The biological activity of the gangliosides is also reported.

tion, stable radicals have the advantage that their concentrations are readily and directly measurable. Among them a stable free radical 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) was investigated as a reactive hydrogen acceptor and further found to be useful for the antioxidant determination. Since then DPPH has been mainly used to examine radical scavenging activity of antioxidative vitamins and po...

derivatives (Fig. 1) that showed in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity. These compounds were also found to inhibit tubulin polymerization as a mechanism of their action in cells. To investigate the possibilities for modification of this scaffold, we divided the moieties into five parts from A to E as shown in Fig. 1. So far, it has been reported that the length of the three carbon chain on mo...

The size distribution of new vesicles formed after addition of oleate in different forms to preformed egg yolk phosphatidylcholine (EggPC) vesicles was studied by gel exclusion chromatography. The addition of oleate to preformed vesicles resulted in the formation of new small vesicles. Fission of preformed vesicles incorporated by oleate and partial solubilization of the vesicles by addition of...

(Euphorbiaceae) (Vietnamese name: Don mat troi) is a small plant, about 1 m high and endemic to eastern Indochina. Growing wild and also being cultivated as a medicinal and ornamental plant, the plant is characterized by the features that its leaves are nearly opposite, deep green above, and purple red beneath, and the margins denticulate. Its leaves are usually used in a Vietnamese folk medici...
