A phenylethanoid glycoside (ilicifolioside A) and an aliphatic alcohol glycoside (ilicifolioside B), have been isolated from the aerial parts of Acanthus ilicifolius, together with eight known compounds. Their structures were determined from spectroscopic analyses.

The widely recognised historical ornament acanthus was used in South Asia, Southeast Europe, and other ancient civilisations. Historic civilisations frequently employed symbols ornaments their architecture to represent a specific subject matter or the aesthetic value aspect of ornamental elements for conceptual purposes. However, this study aims explore Western influence on Mughal era, especial...

From the aerial part of Acanthus ilicifolius, two lignan glucosides, (+)-lyoniresinol 3a-[2-(3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxy)-benzoyl]-O-beta-glucopyranoside, and dihydroxymethyl-bis(3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl) tetrahydrofuran-9(or 9')-O-beta-glucopyranoside have been isolated, together with eight known compounds. The structural elucidations were based on the analyses of physical and spectroscopic d...

The tidal zone of tropical seas is frequently lined with great mangrove forests, the dominating species of which belong to such genera as Rhizophora, Bruguiera, Sonneratia, and Avicennia. The outstanding feature of these plants is their adaptation to growing in seawater, and even though all do well in river estuaries they seldom penetrate inland beyond the direct action of ocean tides. A questi...

A new compound, 1,2-di-(syringoyl)-β-D-glucopyranose, together with erigeside C, were isolated from the roots of Acanthus ilicifolius. The structure of the new compound was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods, including 1D, 2D NMR and HRESIMS spectroscopic data. The cytotoxic activities of these compounds were evaluated against HepG2, A-549, and HeLa cells in vitro. However, none of t...

Jeruju plant has some benefits in reducing symptoms of a particular disease. However, there is little discussion about plants nursing. Therefore, the literature review aims to identify effectiveness extract as an anti-inflammatory. The method used integrating electronic databases such Google Scholar and ScienceDirect. keywords Indonesian are "Acanthus ilicifolius anti-inflammatory," English AS ...
