Cytotoxic constituents from Lobaria scrobiculata and a comparison of two bioassays for their evaluation.

چکیده
Lichens are resilient organisms, known for their unique profiles of secondary metabolites and for exhibiting antioxidative, antibacterial, and cytotoxic effects. Analyzing the cytotoxic potential of Lobaria scrobiculata, a bioassay-guided fractionation strategy yielded seven known metabolites, with two of these compounds, 2 and 3, exhibiting cytotoxicity against HL-60 cells. In order to verify the potential impact of degradation on observed bioactivity, a purity and stability evaluation was conducted. The consistency of results obtained by the water-soluble tetrazolium salt-1 assay and trypan blue cytotoxicity assay was evaluated for selected compounds.

Objective: The genus Ferula L. includes perennial flowering plants belonging to the Apiaceae family. This genus is a rich source of biologically active phytochemicals such as sulfur-containing derivatives, coumarins, sesquiterpenes, sesquiterpene lactones, sesquiterpene coumarins, glucuronic acid, galactose, arabinose, rhamnose, and daucane esters. Over the last decade, considerable attention h...
متن کاملThe paradox of higher light tolerance during desiccation in rare old forest cyanolichens than in more widespread co-occurring chloro- and cephalolichens
Desiccation tolerance was quantified in four cyanolichens (Lobaria hallii, Lobaria retigera, Lobaria scrobiculata, Pseudocyphellaria anomala), one cephalolichen (Lobaria pulmonaria) and one chlorolichen (Platismatia glauca) from xeric and mesic, open and closed North American boreal forests. These sympatric epiphytes were exposed to 0%, 33%, 55% and 75% relative humidity with or without medium ...
