High impact information on Styrax

  • A new norlignan, styraxlignolide A (1), and two new terpenes, styraxosides A (2) and B (3), were isolated from the MeOH-soluble fraction of Styrax japonica Sieb. et Zucc [1].
  • The ethyl acetate fraction, obtained by chromatography from Styrax camporum Pohl extracts, showed antiulcer activity [2].
  • Oral administration of Styrax camporum Pohl and Caesalpinia ferrea Martius stem extracts, atropine, and cimetidine, during 15 days, decreased the ulceration size, gastric secretion volume, and increased collagen fibre number of chronic ulcer induced by acetic acid in rats [2].
  • The methodology in use is illustrated by the isolation of cinnamic acid, cinnamyl cinnamate and cinnamyl ricinoleate as the active constituents of the classic medicinal plant product, Styrax asiatica [3].
  • delta7-stigmasteryl-3 betaD-glucoside from Styrax officinalis. Part II [4].
 

Anatomical context of Styrax

 

Associations of Styrax with chemical compounds

  • The benzofuran constituents of the seeds of Styrax officinalis were investigated [6].
  • A new furofuran lignan, styraxlignolide B (1), and four new dibenzyl-gamma-butyrolactone lignans, styraxlignolides C-F (2-5), were isolated from the EtOAc-soluble fraction of stem bark of Styrax japonica [7].
  • New furofuran and butyrolactone lignans with antioxidant activity from the stem bark of Styrax japonica [7].
  • The methylene chloride soluble fraction of MeOH extract from the stem bark of Styrax japonica S. et Z [8].
