High impact information on Lagerstroemia

Ellagitannins from Lagerstroemia speciosa as activators of glucose transport in fat cells [1].
From one of the active plants, Lagerstroemia speciosa, two triterpenoids, colosolic acid and maslinic acid were isolated [2].
The leaves of Lagerstroemia speciosa afforded a new natural product, 31-norlargerenol acetate (4), along with known compounds 24-methylenecycloartanol acetate (1), its 31-nor analog (2), largerenol acetate (3), tinotufolins C (5) and D (6), lutein, phytol, sitosterol and sitosterol acetate [3].
The methanol extract of the leaves of Lagerstroemia parviflora Roxb was investigated for its effect on a cough model induced by sulfur dioxide gas in mice [4].
Xanthine oxidase inhibitors from the leaves of Lagerstroemia speciosa (L.) Pers [5].
