It also provides aesculic acid, aesculinic acid, an appreciable level of flavonoids (esculin, esculetin, rutin, kaempferol), tannins, starches, m...

Zinc mediated alkynylation reaction was studied for the preparation of C-glycosides from unactivated alkynes. Different glycosyl donors such as glycals and anomeric acetates were tested towards an alkynyl zinc reagent obtained from alkynes using zinc dust and ethyl bromoacetate as an additive. The method provides simple, mild and stereoselective access to alkynyl glycosides both from aromatic a...

Thirty new steroidal glycosides were obtained from the aerial part of Asclepias incarnata L. (Asclepiadaceae). These glycosides were confirmed to have lineolon, isolineolon, 12-O-acetyllineolon, 12-O-(Z)-cinnamoyllineolon, metaplexigenin, 15 beta-hydroxylineolon, 15 beta-hydroxyisolineolon, 16 alpha-hydroxyisolineolon, 12-O-tigloyl-16 alpha-hydroxyisolineolon as the aglycone and 2,6-dideoxyhexo...

New anthracycline antibiotics, designated as obelmycins A, D, E, F and G, were isolated from the culture broth of a variant strain of beta-rhodomycin-producing Streptomyces violaceus A262, identified as beta-isorhodomycinone glycosides and gamma-isorhodomycinone glycosides and assayed for their in vitro cytotoxicities against murine leukemic L1210 cell culture and the antimicrobial activities i...

From the water-soluble portion of the methanol extract of coriander (fruit of Coriandrum sativum L.), which has been used as a spice and medicine since antiquity, 33 compounds, including two new monoterpenoids, four new monoterpenoid glycosides, two new monoterpenoid glucoside sulfates and two new aromatic compound glycosides were obtained. Their structures, were clarified by spectral investiga...

Abstract This paper presents a simple and rapid approach to the quantification of various glycosides using high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC). Different classes glycosides, represented by genistin ononin (both monosaccharidic O-glycosides), rutin (a disaccharidic O-glycoside) luteolin-6-C-glucoside C-glycoside), were successfully separated mixture ethyl acetate‒methanol‒glacial ...

The therapeutic effect of cardiac glycosides for congestive heart failure lies in their reversible inhibition on Na+, K+-ATPase located in human myocardium. Several steroid-like compounds containing a core structure similar to cardiac glycosides have been found in many Chinese herbs and medicinal animal products conventionally used to promote blood circulation. They are putatively responsible f...

The cardiac glycosides ouabain and digitoxin, established Na(+)/K(+) ATPase inhibitors, were found to inhibit MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell migration through an unbiased chemical genetics screen for cell motility. The Na(+)/K(+) ATPase acts both as an ion-transporter and as a receptor for cardiac glycosides. To delineate which function is related to breast cancer cell migration, structure-activ...
