Naturforsch. 58c, 153Ð160 (2003); received October 10/November 14, 2002 The resinous material accumulated on aerial parts of Madia species is shown to consist mainly of diterpenes, containing a series of flavonoid aglycones. A6- and/or 8-O-substitution is characteristic for many of these flavonoids. Three known rare diterpenes were found and the structure elucidation of a diterpene with a new carbon skeleton, named madiaol, is re- ported.

The cytotoxicity and apoptogenic activity of rhamnazin in vitro are inferior to that of quercetin. The apoptogenic activity of rhamnazin is realized via mitochondrial pathway and associated with activation of caspase-9 and -3. The additive apoptogenic effect of rhamnazin and suboptimal doses of etoposide, a Dna topoisomerase ii inhibitor, is demonstrated.

Current study involves the screening and identification of potent inhibitors of the pneumococcal virulence factor pneumolysin. About 100 flavonoids were chosen from scientific literature and docked with pnuemolysin (PDB Id.: 4QQA) using Patch Dockprogram for molecular docking. The results obtained were analysed and the docked structures visualized using LigPlus software. It was found that flavonoids amurensin, diosmin, robinin, rutin, sophoroflavonoloside, spiraeoside and icariin had hydrogen bond interactions with the receptor protein pneumolysin (4QQA). Among others, robinin had the highest score (7710) revealing that it had the best geometrical fit to the receptor molecule forming 12 hydrogen bonds ranging from 0.8-3.3 Å. Keywords : Pneumococci, pneumolysin, flavonoids, antimicrobial, virtual screening _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Streptococcus pneumoniae is a gram positive pathogenic bacterium causing opportunistic infections that may be life-threating[1]. Pneumococcus is the causative agent of pneumonia and is the most common agent causing meningitis.

The rats were controlled every day 4 h/day for 30 days in very much ventilated plexiglass tubes without access to nourishment and water. These creatures were infused with rhamnazin or vehicle worry over a time of 30 days. At that point, spatial learning and memory of the rodent were assessed by the Morris water maze. We didn't watch a noteworthy contrast in the escape inactivity in rodent subjected to rehashed restriction push, which shows that learning capacity was not influenced by limitation stress. Be that as it may, the spatial memory capacity was essentially disabled in the over and again limited rodent. Rhamnazin administration particularly expanded the time spent in the objective quadrant in rodent presented to chronic stress in the probe trial as tried in the Morris water maze. Additionally contemplates demonstrated that rhamnazin treatment diminished plasma adrenocorticotrophic hormone levels (ACTH) of those rats subjected to rehashed restriction push. The impact of rhamnazin on the levels of mind inferred neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in hippocampus was likewise researched. The outcome demonstrated that rhamnazin standardized the diminished BDNF levels in rodent subjected to rehashed limitation push.

Many flavonoids have been identified from Tamarix, which is an important strategy employed to reduce the formation of heterocyclic amines (HAs) in roast meat. Isorhamnetin, hispidulin, and cirsimaritin from Tamarix ramosissima bark extract (TRE) effectively inhibit the formation of 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b] pyridine (PhIP), the most abundant HAs in foods, both in roast lamb patties and in chemical models.

Each of the disjunctions appears to have resulted from north-to-south dispersal since the mid-Miocene; three are associated with such marked morphological and ecological change that some of the southern taxa (including Apostates) have been treated in distinct genera of uncertain relationship. Phyllotaxy within the Bahia alliance, however, evidently has been even more conservative evolutionarily than reflected by previous taxonomies, with alternate-leaved and opposite-leaved clades in Bahia sensu Ellison each encompassing representatives of other genera that share the same leaf arrangements. A revised taxonomic treatment of the Bahia alliance is proposed to recognize morphologically distinctive, monophyletic genera, including the critically endangered Apostates.

    Chemodiversity of Exudate Flavonoids in Seven Tribes of Cichorioideae and Asteroideae (Asteraceae)§ Karin M.Valant-Vetscheraa and Eckhard Wollenweberb,* a Department of Plant Systematics and Evolution Ð Comparative and Ecological Phytochemistry, University of Vienna, Rennweg 14, A-1030 Wien, Austria b Institut für Botanik der TU Darmstadt, Schnittspahnstrasse 3, D-64287 Darmstadt, Germany. E-mail: [email protected] * Author for correspondence and reprint requests Z. Naturforsch. 62c, 155Ð163 (2007); received October 26/November 24, 2006 Members of several genera of Asteraceae, belonging to the tribes Mutisieae, Cardueae, Lactuceae (all subfamily Cichorioideae), and of Astereae, Senecioneae, Helenieae and Helian- theae (all subfamily Asteroideae) have been analyzed for chemodiversity of their exudate flavonoid profiles. The majority of structures found were flavones and flavonols, sometimes with 6- and/or 8-substitution, and with a varying degree of oxidation and methylation. Flava- nones were observed in exudates of some genera, and, in some cases, also flavonol- and flavone glycosides were detected. This was mostly the case when exudates were poor both in yield and chemical complexity. Structurally diverse profiles are found particularly within Astereae and Heliantheae. The tribes in the subfamily Cichorioideae exhibited less complex flavonoid profiles. Current results are compared to literature data, and botanical information is included on the studied taxa. Key words: Asteraceae, Exudates, Flavonoids Introduction comparison of accumulation trends in terms of The family of Asteraceae is distributed world- substitution patterns is more indicative for che- wide and comprises 17 tribes, of which Mutisieae, modiversity than single compounds.
