triterpenes from euphorbia spinidens with immunomodulatory activity

Authors
abstract

dried aceton-chloroform extract of aerial parts of euphorbia spinidens bornm. ex prokh. endemic to iran, yielded two new triterpenoids, lup-20(29)-ene-33, 28 diol commonly known as betulin and (3β,23e)-cycloarta-23-ene-3,25-diol. the structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by 13 c- and 1 h-nmr as well as 2d-nmr, ir and by the aid of mass fragmentation pattern. in phagocyte chemiluminescence assay, different concentrations of compounds were incubated with the human whole blood in triplicate and the chemiluminescence activity of phagocytic cells were measured by using serum opsonized zymosan and luminol. for lymphocyte proliferation assay, peripheral human blood lymphocytes were incubated with different concentrations of the test compound in supplemented roswell park memorial institute (rpmi) 1640 medium along with 5.0 µg/ml phytohemagglutinin (pha) at 37ºc in co2 environment for 72 h and proliferation level was determined by beta-scintillation counter. in phagocyte chemiluminescence assay, betulin showed moderate inhibitory effect on the oxidative burst in the neutrophils, while addition of betulin triterpene was able to stimulate the proliferation of the phytohemagglutinin (pha) treated human peripheral blood lymphocytes (hpbls).

Triterpenes and steroids from Euphorbia denticulate Lam. with Anti-Herpes Symplex virus activity

In this research, dried acetone:chloroform extract of aerial parts of E. denticulata as one of the endemic plants to Iran, afforded a number of triterpenes and steroids including: betulin, 24-methylene-cycloart-3-ol, cycloart-23Z-ene-3β,25-diol, cycloart-23Z-ene-3β,25-diol, ergosta-8,24-dien-3-ol (obtusifoliol) and beta-sitosterol which were reported for the first time from this plant. The stru...

Flavonol Glycosides from Euphorbia microsciadia Bioss. with their Immunomodulatory Activities

Four known flavonoids: quercetin 3-O-β-D-rutinoside (Q3Rut), myricetin 3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside (M3Gal), quercetin 3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside (Q3Gal) and quercetin 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (Q3Glc), for the first time were isolated from aerial parts of Euphorbia microsciadia. The chemical structure of them was elucidated on the basis of 1 and 2 D-NMR spectra and different spectroscopic techniques...
