Bu çalışmanın amacı, kızılcık meyvelerinin kimyasal bileşimi (C vitamini, bireysel fenolik ve şeker bileşikleri) antioksidan kapasitesinin yanında, meyve ekstrelerinin sağlıklı (L-929) akciğer kanseri (A-549) hücreleri üzerindeki sitotoksik etkisini araştırmaktır. Türkiye'de aynı koşullarda yetiştirilen on üç (Cornus mas L.) genotipi örnekleri ASE tekniği ile optimum ekstrakte edildikten sonra ...

Despite prevention and treatment options, breast cancer (BC) has become one of the most important issues in the present day. Therefore, the need for more specific and efficient compounds remains paramount. We evaluated four previously isolated aryltetralin lignans: 5'-demethoxy-β-peltatin-A-methylether (1), acetylpodophyllotoxin (2), 5'-demethoxydeoxypodophyllotoxin (3), and 7',8'-dehydroacetyl...

Bioactivity-directed fractionation of the leaves of Annona muricata resulted in the isolation of annopentocins A (1), B (2), and C(3), and cis- and trans-annomuricin-D-ones (4, 5). Compounds 1-3 are the first acetogenins reported bearing a mono-tetrahydrofuran (THF) ring with one flanking hydroxyl, on the hydrocarbon side, and another hydroxyl, on the lactone side, that is one carbon away from ...

The oxidation-reduction potentials of the cytochromes of the respiratory chain of mung bean (Phaseolus aureus) mitochondria have been measured under strictly anaerobic conditions with a combined spectrophotometric/potentiometric method. The midpoint potentials at pH 7.2 are as follows: cytochrome a: +190 millivolts; a(3): +380 millivolts; b(553): +75 millivolts; b(557): +42 millivolts; b(562): ...

Background and objectives: Cancer is a public health problem all over the world. Herbal medicines have a vital role in the prevention and treatment of cancer and large numbers of plants and their isolated constituents have shown potential anticancer activity. Methods: Twenty seven medicinal plants from southern Iran provinces have been extracted with methanol and screened for their cytotoxic ac...

A series of novel bis-1,3,4-oxadizaoles were synthesized by oxidative cyclisation of respective Schiff bases derived from dicarbohydrazide using ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as catalyst. The synthesized compounds were screened for in vitro antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 87), Escherichia coli (MTCC 46) and antifungal activity against Candida albicans (NCIM 3471) by tw...
