High impact information on Albizzia

  • Pfr phytochrome and sucrose requirement for rhythmic leaflet movement in Albizzia [1].
  • Three new triterpenoid saponins, julibroside J(29) (1), julibroside J(30) (2), and julibroside J(31) (3), were isolated from the stem bark of Albizia julibrissin Durazz [2].
  • Three new oleanane-type triterpene saponins (1-3), named grandibracteosides A-C, were isolated from the methanolic extract of leaves of Albizia grandibracteata, a species consumed by primates in the Kibale National Park, Uganda [3].
  • Khaya and albizia gums were evaluated as compression coatings for target drug delivery to the colon using indometacin (a water insoluble drug) and paracetamol (a water soluble drug) as model drugs [4].
  • The present study examines the effects of adianthifoliosides A, B, and D (AdA, AdB, and AdD) together with two prosapogenins (Pro1 and Pro2) obtained from Albizia adianthifolia (Mimosaceae) on human leukemia T-cells (Jurkat cells) and on splenocytes [5].
 

Anatomical context of Albizzia

 

Associations of Albizzia with chemical compounds

  • Four acylated triterpenoid saponins from Albizia procera [7].
  • An antitumor compound julibroside J28 from Albizia julibrissin [8].
  • New macrocyclic spermine (budmunchiamine) alkaloids from Albizia gummifera: with some observations on the structure--activity relationships of the budmunchiamines [9].
  • Three pyridoxine derivatives have been isolated from the fresh stem bark of Albizzia julibrissin DURAZZ.. One of them, named julibrin II, was found to exhibit arrhythmic-inducing action [10].
  • Two new tri-O-glycoside flavonols: kaempferol and quercetin 3-O-alpha-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->6)-beta-glucopyranosyl(1-->6)-beta- galactopyranosides, were identified from the leaves of Albizia lebbeck [11].
 

Gene context of Albizzia

  • Proteinase inhibitors from a mimosoideae legume, Albizzia julibrissin. Homologues of soybean trypsin inhibitor (Kunitz) [12].
  • The effect of saponin containing, n-butanolic fraction (BF), extracted from dried leaves of Albizzia lebbeck, was studied on cognitive behavior and anxiety in albino mice [13].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Albizzia

  • Bioassay-guided fractionation of a methanol extract of Albizia subdimidiata using the engineered yeast strains 1138, 1140, 1353, and Sc7 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as the bioassay tool resulted in the isolation of the two active saponins 1 and 2; one of these, albiziatrioside A (1), is described for the first time [14].
