Disease relevance of C10746

Ten lignans (2-11) and a series of azalignans including 1-aryl-pyrronaphthalenes 20-24 and 3-N-alkylaminomethyl-1-arylnaphthalenes 25-28, structurally related to two HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitors, retrojusticidin B and phyllamyricin A, were prepared from phyllanthin (1) for evaluation of anti-HIV activities [1].

High impact information on C10746

AMARUS derivatives: the hexane extract (HE, 100 mug/mL), the lignans-rich fraction (LRF, 100 mug/mL) and the lignans nirtetralin (NIRT, 43.2 mug/mL), niranthin (NIRA, 43 mug/mL) or phyllanthin (PHYLLA, 43 mug/mL) exerted cytotoxic effects on K-562 cells with 40.3, 66.0, 62.0, 61.0 or 24.1 % of cell death, respectively [2].
Given orally, the hexane extract (HE), the lignan-rich fraction (LRF), or the lignans phyltetralin, nirtetralin, niranthin, but not hypophyllanthin or phyllanthin, inhibited carrageenan (Cg)-induced paw oedema and neutrophil influx [3].
High-performance thin-layer chromatography densitometric method for simultaneous quantitation of phyllanthin, hypophyllanthin, gallic acid, and ellagic acid in Phyllanthus amarus [4].

Associations of C10746 with other chemical compounds

A simple high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) densitometric method has been developed for the simultaneous quantitation of phyllanthin, hypophyllanthin, gallic acid, and ellagic acid in the whole plant of P. amarus [4].
