Abstract:

Background and objectives: Datura innoxiaMilleris one of the two species of Datura (Solanaceae) which grow in Iran. There are many reports of the biological activities of Datura and in the present study the ability of Datura innoxia for inhibiting angiogenesis was evaluated. Methods: The methanol extract and petroleum ether, chloroform and methanol fractions of Datura innoxia flowers were obtained by maceration method. The extract and fractions were further evaluated for their cytotoxicity and anti-angiogenesis properties in HUV-EC-C cells through MTT and wound healing assays, respectively. Results: The methanol extract and the petroleum ether, chloroform and methanol fractions were cytotoxic to HUV-EC-C cells (IC50 11.25, 63.3, 8.75 and 9.27 μg/mL, respectively). The chloroform fraction demonstrated the most anti-angiogenesis activity in the wound healing assay. Conclusion: Evaluating the above activities of the compounds isolated from Datura innoxia might be a proper follow up of the present study.

Tropane alkaloids of Datura innoxia from Morocco.

Fifty three alkaloids were identified in the organs (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and seeds) of Datura innoxia by GC/MS. Seventeen of them are reported for the first time for this species and one nor-derivative, 3-phenylacetoxynortropane (28), for the genus Datura. Furthermore, four new tropane esters were tentatively identified as 3-acetoxy-6,7-epoxytropane (acetylscopine) (10), 3-acetoxy-6-...

In vitro organogenesis and alkaloid accumulation in Datura innoxia.

The kinetics of tropane alkaloids accumulation in different organs such as roots, leaves, stems, flowers and seeds of Datura innoxia was investigated by GC-MS. Twenty-six tropane alkaloids were detected. The ester derivatives of tropine (3alpha-tigloyloxytropine and 3-tigloyloxy-6-hydroxytropine) are the major compounds. Undifferentiated callus were established from the stem explants of Datura ...

Antioxidant Activity and Ft-ir Analysis of Datura Innoxia and Datura Metel Leaf and Seed Methanolic Extracts

BACKGROUND Datura (family- Solanaceae), has a long history of being used as herbal medicine. These medicinal effects have been attributed to the phytochemicals present in the plant leaves and seeds, in particular alkaloids, flavonoids and phenolic compounds. The objective of this study was to investigate the methanolic leaf and seed extracts of Datura innoxia (DLP-I & DSP-I) and Datura metel (D...

Toxicity of Biopesticide Datura Innoxia against the Mortality of Holotrichia Serrata (Fab) Adults

White grubs are the larvae of Scarabaeidae beetles. The white grub is a major pest problem in India as well abroad also. White grubs are pests of national importance in India and are a serious constraint to production of Kharif crops. White grub is caused heavy damage to the agricultural commercial crops and wide variety of host plants like neem, babhul, ber, khair. The Holotrichia serrata (Fab...

Determination of Hyoscyamine and Scopolamine in Datura innoxia Plants by High Performance Liquid Chromatography

For the determination of the hyoscyamine-scopolamine content in small quantities of fresh plant tissue an HPLC assay was developed; with a sensitivity of about 20 ng alkaloid per run. Analysis of the different organs of Datura innoxia plants are in accord with the concept that hyoscyamine is synthesized in the roots, whereas transformation to scopolamine starts in these organs and proceeds in t...
