Biologically active constituents of Melaleuca leucadendron: Inhibitors of induced histamine release from rat mast cells
Tsuruga,Chun,Ebizuka,Sankawa
, p. 3276 - 3278 (1991)
Chloroform and methanol extracts of the fruits of Melaleuca leucadendron strongly inhibited histamine release from rat mast cells induced by compound 48/80 or concanavalin A. Ursolic acid, a triterpene, was the most active compound contained in the chloro

The current study reports the first comprehensive evaluation of a class of allelopathic terrestrial natural products as antifoulants in a marine setting. To investigate the antifouling potential of the natural dihydrostilbene scaffold, a library of 22 syn

The methanolic extracts from five kinds of rhubarb were found to show scavenging activity for DPPH radical and ·O2-. Two new anthraquinone glucosides were isolated from the rhizome of Rheum undulatum L. together with two anthraquinone glucosides, a naphthalene glucoside, and 10 stilbenes. In the screening test for radical scavenging activity of rhubarb constituents, stilbenes and a naphthalene glucoside showed activity, but anthraquinones and sennosides did not. In addition, most stilbenes inhibited lipid peroxidation of erythrocyte membrane by tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Detailed examination of the scavenging effect on various related compounds suggested the following structural requirements; 1) phenolic hydroxyl groups are essential to show the activity; 2) galloyl moiety enhances the activity; 3) glucoside moiety reduces the activity; 4) dihydrostilbene derivatives maintain the scavenging activity for the DPPH radical, but they show weak activity for ·O2-. In addition, several stilbenes with both the 3-hydroxyl and 4′-methoxyl groups inhibited xanthine oxidase.
