Disease relevance of Rutaceae

  • The present paper reports the results of the methanol extract of Haplophyllum hispanicum Spach on single or repeated local 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA) administration and in the oxazolone-induced contact-delayed hypersensitivity mouse ear edemas [1].
 

Psychiatry related information on Rutaceae

 

High impact information on Rutaceae

  • Acridone alkaloids isolated from plants of the family Rutaceae have antiplasmodial activity in rodent models of malaria [3].
  • Mahanine, a carbazole alkaloid from Micromelum minutum, inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis in U937 cells through a mitochondrial dependent pathway [4].
  • The results suggested that ACS divergently has evolved from CHS by very few amino acid exchanges, and it remains to be established why this route of functional diversity has developed in the Rutaceae only [5].
  • Diphyllin isolated from Haplophyllum bucharicum Litv [6].
  • A new acetophenone derivative, melicopone, along with twenty-nine known compounds has been isolated from the root wood of Melicope semecarpifolia [7].
 

Biological context of Rutaceae

  • Mahanine, a carbazole alkaloid occurs in the edible part of Micromelum minutum, Murraya koenigii and related species has been found to induce apoptosis in human myeloid cancer cell (HL-60) [8].
  • Oxidation of 2 with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid followed by hydrolysis gave the racemic trans-(+)-1-(9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxy-5-methoxy-2,2,8, 8-tetramethyl-2H,8H-benzo[1,2-b:3,4-b']dipyran-6-yl)ethanone (3), which confirmed the structure of the natural product previously isolated from Melicope erromangensis [9].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Rutaceae

  • Twelve coumarins isolated from plants of the Rutaceae collected in Sri Lanka have been subjected to a mechanism-based anticancer bioassay employing DNA repair-deficient and repair-proficient yeasts [19].
