Disease relevance of Gentianaceae

 

High impact information on Gentianaceae

 

Anatomical context of Gentianaceae

  • We investigated the effect of ethanolic extract prepared from plant Canscora decussata on expression of ICAM-1 and E-selectin on endothelial cells [6].
 

Associations of Gentianaceae with chemical compounds

  • Chemical constituents of Gentianaceae XIX: CNS-depressant effects of swertiamarin [7].
  • (Gentianaceae) was collected at different growth stages and was shown to contain seven flavonoids: apigenin (I), genkwanin (II), isovitexin (III), swertisin (IV), saponarin (V), 5-O-glucosylswertisin (VI), and 5-O-glucosylisoswertisin (VII) [8].
  • This species together with three other genera of the tribe Gentianeae, subtribe Chlorae: Centaurium, Coutoubea and Eustoma, is unusual in producing flavonol glycosides instead of C-glycosyl flavones, the more characteristic flavonoid constituents of the Gentianaceae [9].
  • The structural elucidation of a novel iridoid derivative from Tachiadenus longiflorus (Gentianaceae) using the LSD programme and quantum chemical computations [10].
  • 1-Hydroxy-3,4,7,8-tetramethoxyxanthone, beta-sitosterol, uvaol-3-palmitate, and sweroside have been isolated from the fresh whole plant of Tripterospermum lanceolatum (Hayata) Haraex Satake (Gentianaceae) [11].
 

Gene context of Gentianaceae

  • Anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37 RV data are presented for the individual xanthones of Canscora decussata Schult and Swertia purpurascens Wall (Gentianaceae); a few, from the former species, showed significant activity [12].
  • Chemical constituents of gentianaceae. Part 22. Structures of new 1,3,5-tri- and 1,3,5,6,7-penta-oxygenated xanthones of Canscora decussata Schult [13].
