Worldwide, only an estimated ten to thirty percent of human health care is delivered by conventional, biomedically oriented practitioners. The remaining seventy to ninety percent ranges from self-care according to folk principles, to care given in an organized health care system based on traditional medicine. Likewise, in Myanmar health care system, the existence of traditional medicine along with allopathic medicines is well recognized. Myanmar traditional medicine dates back 2,000 years and is well accepted and widely used by the people throughout history. Burma Medical Research Institute since it was established in 1963 had started a program of research on traditional medicinal plants including laboratory screening tests on animal models of herbs with reputed pharmacological properties-such as anti-dysentery, bronchodilator, hypoglycemic effects.

  • In Chemistry, Glycosides Are Certain Molecules in Which a Sugar Part Is
    GLYCOSIDES Glycosides may be defined as the organic compounds from plants or animal sources, which on enzymatic or acid hydrolysis give one or more sugar moieties along with non- sugar moiety. Glycosides play numerous important roles in living organisms. Many plants store important chemicals in the form of inactive glycosides; if these chemicals are needed, the glycosides are brought in contact with water and an enzyme, and the sugar part is broken off, making the chemical available for use. Many such plant glycosides are used as medications. In animals (including humans), poisons are often bound to sugar molecules in order to remove them from the body. Formally, a glycoside is any molecule in which a sugar group is bonded through its carbon atom to another group via an O-glycosidic bond or an S-glycosidic bond; glycosides involving the latter are also called thioglycosides. The sugar group is then known as the glycone and the non-sugar group as the aglycone or genin part of the glycoside. The glycone can consist of a single sugar group (monosaccharide) or several sugar groups (oligosaccharide). Classification Classification based on linkages Based on the linkage of sugar moiety to aglycone part 1. O-Glycoside:-Here the sugar is combined with alcoholic or phenolic hydroxyl function of aglycone.eg:-digitalis. 2. N-glycosides:-Here nitrogen of amino group is condensed with a sugar ,eg- Nucleoside 3. S-glycoside:-Here sugar is combined with sulphur of aglycone,eg- isothiocyanate glycosides. 4. C-glycosides:-By condensation of a sugar with a cabon atom, eg-Cascaroside, aloin. Glycosides can be classified by the glycone, by the type of glycosidic bond, and by the aglycone.

WHEREASin 1884 Herzig (Monntsh., 5, 72) observed that quercetin could not be completely methylated by means of methyl iodide and alkali, v. Kostanecki and Dreher, as the result of their experiments with the monohydroxyxanthones (Rer., 1893, 26, 76), showed that although the methyl ethers of the 2-, 3-, and 4-compounds could be readily prepared by this method, the 1-hydroxyxanthone in which the hydroxyl is adjacent to the carbonyl group was thus not affected. In relation also to the dihydroxyxanthone, chrysin, Kostanecki states (Bey., 1893, 26, 2901), “Dass im Chrysin beim methyliren ein Hydroxyl unangeriffen bleibt . das Hydroxyl welches im Orthostellung steht, sich nicht methyliren lasst.” Alizarin (Schunck and Marchlewski, T., 1894, 65, 185) behaves similarly, and, indeed, this property has been so generally observed in the case of aromatic hydroxy-ketones and acids that the resist- View Article Online PERKIN : TEE METHY LATION OF QUERCETIN. 1633 ance of an hydroxyl group to methylation by this process has in many cases been considered to serve for the detection of a carbonyl group.

  • Effects of Polyphenols on Vasomodulatory Factors and Associated Cell Signalling
    Effects of Polyphenols on Vasomodulatory Factors and Associated Cell Signalling by Mark E. Woodcock A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctorate of Philosophy to the University of East Anglia with Studies Completed at the Institute of Food Research June 2013 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract There is increasing evidence that consumption of plant bioactives such as polyphenols reduces cardiovascular disease risk and improves endothelial function. In the Black Sea area, a number of plants are consumed alone and as ingredients in traditional foods, and dill, nettle, kale, Sideritis, pomegranate and persimmon were identified as polyphenol- rich traditional food plants. Bioactive-rich extracts of their edible parts were used to treat human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), to assess effects on the abundance or activity of signalling molecules related to increased vasodilation, a hallmark of improved endothelial function. Specifically, Akt and eNOS phosphorylation, levels of total eNOS protein and cGMP, secretion of ET-1 and levels of nitrate/nitrite in cell culture media were assayed. Alongside these experiments, HUVECs were treated with quercetin, a flavonol found in a number of the plant extracts, alongside a mix of its human metabolites to assess their effect on a broad range of phosphorylated proteins using an antibody microarray. Quercetin (50 µM) significantly decreased eNOS phosphorylation (p < 0.05), while extracts of pomegranate and persimmon significantly increased levels of phosphorylated (p-) Akt, p-eNOS and cell culture media nitrate/nitrite (p < 0.05), and significantly reduced secretion of the vasoconstrictor ET-1 (p < 0.001).
