[ 1 ] - Anti-inflammatory, Analgesic and Antiulcer properties of Porphyra vietnamensis

Objectives: Aim of the present work was to investigate the anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antiulcer effects of red seaweed Porphyra vietnamensis (P. vietnamenis). Materials and Methods: Aqueous (POR) and alcoholic (PE) fractions were successfully isolated from P. vietnamenis. Further biological investigations were performed using a classic test of paw edema induced by carrageenan, writhing in...

[ 2 ] - First Total Synthesis and Pharmacological Potential of a Plant Based Hexacyclopeptide

A new bioactive proline-rich cyclohexapeptide - diandrine C (6), previously isolated from whole plant of Drymaria diandra (Caryophyllaceae), was synthesized through coupling reactions of tetrapeptide unit Boc-Gly-l-Pro-l-Tyr-l-Trp-OH with dipeptide unit l-Pro-Gly-OMe using N,N-diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIPC) as the coupling agent, followed by cyclization of l...

[ 4 ] - Synthesis and Bioactivity of a Cyclopolypeptide from Caribbean Marine Sponge

Synthesis of a natural proline-rich cyclopolypeptide - rolloamide A [8] was carried out by coupling of tri- and tetrapeptide units Boc-Phe-Pro-Val-OMe and Boc-Pro-Leu-Pro-Ile-OMe after proper deprotection at carboxyl and amino terminals using carbodiimide chemistry in alkaline environment followed by cyclization of linear heptapeptide segment in the presence of base. The structure of synthesize...
