DESMODIUM ALKALOIDS PART IP CHEMICAL and PHARMACOLOGICAL EVALUATION of D. GANGETICUM by S. Ghosal and S. K. Bhattacharya Introdu
DESMODIUM ALKALOIDS PART IP CHEMICAL AND PHARMACOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF D. GANGETICUM By S. Ghosal and S. K. Bhattacharya Introduction The members of the genus Desmodiurn (Papilionaceae) are mostly shrubs, widely distributed in tropical and sub-tropical habitats and particularly abundant in India. They are well known for their various medicinal uses in the Indian system of medicine (Chopra et al., 1956). Among about four dozen Desmodium species available in this country, chemical and pharmacological evaluation of D. pulchel- lurn Benth. ex Baker (Ghosal et al., 1971) and only preliminary chemical in- vestigation of the entitled species (Ghosal and Banerjee, 1969) have been re- ported so far. The medicinal uses of the plant extracts and the high alkaloid con- tent of the two aforementioned species prompted us to examine in detail the alka- loid content and pharmacological properties of the available Desmodium species. Such investigation would also serve to locate the active principles of the plants with respect to the reported medicinal uses of their crude extracts.The initial chemical investigation with D. gangeticum DC has now been complemented by detail chemical and pharmacological evaluation of the species at different stages of its development. The results are reported in this paper. Experimental The general procedure for the separation and identification of the CHCla-soluble alkaloids involved gradient-pH extraction from aqueous AcOH solution; column chromatographic reso· lution over Brockman neutral alumina; paper chromatography (Whatrna~ 3MM papers) anc TLC (silica gel G, E. Merck) of the eluates from column chromatorgaphic runs in presence 0 markers (Ghosal and Mukherjee, 1966; Ghosal et aI., 1971a); preparation of picrate hydrochloride, and methiodide where possible; and determination of UV, IR, NMR and mas spectra of the single entities. -

The Cheillistry of Peyote Al.Kaloids!
The CheIllistry of Peyote Al.kaloids! GOVIND J. KAPADIA AND M. B. E. FAYEZ Department of Pharmacognosy and Natural Products, College of Pharmacy, Howard University, Washington, D.C. 20001 The fact that several publications, reporting new constituents and biogenetic pathways of peyote, have appeared since the publication of our latest review article (I)-and surely more to come-and the organization of this Symposium all testify that interest in peyote is still far from extinguished. In the lapse of only the past 18 months, fifteen additional constituents of peyote have been reported, bringing the total number of identified constituents of this resourceful cactus to 56 at the time of writing this article. The earliest chemical studies with peyote were made by Lewin (2) in 1888 who isolated the first crystalline constituent, namely the tetrahydroisoqui- noline alkaloid anhalonine (XXXVIII; for structures, cf. table 1). With the realization that the latter compound possessed no hallucinatory effects, vigorous research was continued to discover the active principle. The studies of Heffter (3-8) towards the end of the century resulted in the discovery of three additional tetrahydroisoquinolines, pellotine (XXXV), anhalonidine (XXX), and lophophorine (XLI) and the identification of mescaline (XVII), a il-phene- thylamine, as the hallucinogenic principle of the drug. In 1899, another alkaloid, anhalamine (XXI), was isolated by Kauder (9). Ernst Spath must be ac- credited for the structure elucidation and the synthesis of all these alkaloids, publishing his results in a series of reports from 1919 and extending the scope of his investigations to include alkaloids from other Cactaceae up to 1939 (10-28). -
Review Article Herbal Anesthetic Agents: an Overview on Sources, Uses and Future Perspectives I
Asian Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology 2019; 5(S1): 21-27 21 Review Article Herbal anesthetic agents: An overview on sources, uses and future perspectives I. N. Bhardwaj1 , Maya Sharma 2* 1Jhalawar Medical College, Jhalawar, Rajasthan, India 2Pacific College of Pharmacy, Udaipur, Rajasthan, India Received: 3 April 2019 Revised: 20 May 2019 Accepted: 24 May 2019 Abstract Herbal folk drugs are progressively using in both western and Chinese societies. This is partly attributed to the supposed limitations of scientific medicine in the cure and control of chronic diseases. Such as herbal anesthetics treatment refers to plants which are used for their anesthetic properties. A large range of plants have been found to have analgesic or anesthetic property like coca for local anesthetic effect and valerian for general anesthetic effect. Consequently anesthetics can be used as analgesics to reduce pain but analgesics can't be used as anesthetics. Herbal folk anesthetics plants refer to herbs which are used for their anesthetic properties. A large range of plants have been reported to have analgesic or anesthetic effects, e.g. Coca, Clove, Cinchona, Dhatura, Jasmine and many more for local anesthetic effect and Valerian for general anesthetic effect. Their pharmacological diversity reflects the diverse neurochemistry and neurophysiology of pain and analgesia system in the nervous system. They have become an essential part of our medical treatment and these lead to the improvement of similar drugs with better clinical properties. This article covered some of the herbs which have been using as anesthetics along with their biological and geographical source, chemical composition, mechanism of action, and their evaluation. -

WILLIAMS O INDOLE-, IMIDAZOLE-, AND PHENYL-ALKYLAMINES IN THE SKIN OF THIRTEEN LEPTODACTYLUS SPECIES V. Erspamer, M. Roseghini and J. M. Cei Institute of Pharmacology, University of Parma, Parma, Italy and Institute of Biology, National University of Cuyo, Mendoza, Argentina (Received 16 January 1964; accepted 26 February 1964) Abstract—The skin of thirteen Leptodactylus species and sub-species has been examined in regard to its content in biogenic amines. This tissue presents, especially in Lepto dactylus pentadactylus labyrinthicus and some other species, an unusually rich miscellany of amines, including at least two indolealkylamines (5-hydroxytryptamine and bufotenidine), three hydroxyphenylalkylamines (p-tyramine, candicine, leptodactyline) and five imidazolealkylamines (histamine, N-methylhistamine, N,N-dimethylhistamine, spinaceamine and 6-methylspinaceamine). It is concluded that the Leptodactylus skin must possess aromatic acid decarboxylase activity, tryptophan-5-hydroxylase activity and N-methyltransferase activity. The skin of nearly every Leptodactylus species and sub-species is characterized by a particular spectrum of amines, which evidently may help in systematics of these species. It has been shown in other papers1,3,4 that the skin of different species and sub-species of Leptodactylus, an amphibian genus living in tropical America, may contain con siderable amounts of leptodactyline, candicine and imidazolealkylamines. This communication gives a more complete account of the occurrence of the above amines as well as of other biogenic amines in the skin of the thirteen Leptodactylus species examined so far. -

(052) 6177900 Graphic Design: Leo McCormack (Swift Design - 087 6499990) Introduction The ‘Guide to Ethnobotanical Plants and Herbs, Synthetic Chemicals, Compounds and Products’ available to the Irish Market has been collated and designed by the Drug Education Officer and team in the Substance Misuse Service HSE, South Tipperary. This edition is a follow on to ‘A Guide to Substance Misuse for Medical Professionals’ launched in November 2009. This Guide has been produced in response to requests from workers, users, medical professionals and academics for information on the emerging issue of legal herbal highs, plants and chemical alternatives available to buy in shops and online. Legal highs, legal alternatives and natural highs have become a world wide phenomenon in recent years both here in Ireland and on the International stage. The current concern for users, parents and professionals working with people using and misusing Psychoactive Substances is their after effects and how they can negatively impact on the body and mind. A Psychoactive Substance is a drug (any substance that changes the way a body and mind feels acts or thinks) that is not controlled under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1977-84 and is therefore legal to use and possess. -
