Disease relevance of Eriocaulaceae

Intestinal anti-inflammatory activity of paepalantine, an isocoumarin isolated from the capitula of Paepalanthus bromelioides, in the trinitrobenzenesulphonic acid model of rat colitis [1].

High impact information on Eriocaulaceae

A new cytotoxic naphthoquinone from Paepalanthus latipes [2].
A new naphthopyranone dimer (1) named planifolin was isolated from a methylene chloride extract of the capitula of Paepalanthus planifolius [3].
The first isocoumarin isolated from the methylene chloride extract of Paepalanthus bromelioides, named paepalantine (isocoumarin 1), was found to have antimicrobial activity; but, it is mutagenic clastogenic and cytotoxic [4].

Associations of Eriocaulaceae with chemical compounds

Mutagenic and cytotoxic activity of an isocoumarin (Paepalantine) isolated from Paepalanthus vellozioides [5].
