Cytotoxicity of Fenugreek Sprout and Seed Extracts and Their Bioactive Constituents on MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cells.
Trigonella foenum-graecum L. (fenugreek), a member of the legume family (Fabaceae), is a promising source of bioactive phytochemicals, which explains its traditional use for a variety of metabolic disorders including cancer. The current study aimed to evaluate extracts of fenugreek seeds and sprouts, and some of their constituents, to compare...Khoja, Kholoud K. ; Howes, Melanie-Jayne R. ; Hider, Robert ; Sharp, Paul A. ; Farrell, Iain W. …

13-amino derivatives of dehydrocostus lactone display greatly enhanced selective toxicity against breast cancer cells and improved binding energies to protein kinases in silico.
The biological activities of dehydrocostus lactone and its analogues are suggested to be mediated by the lactone ring and , -methylene- -lactone. However, few studies exist on the structure-activity relationship of 13-amino derivatives of dehydrocostus latone. In this study new 13-amino derivatives of dehydrocostus lactone ( ) were synthesized through...Kemboi, Douglas ; Langat, Moses K. ; Siwe-Noundou, Xavier ; Tshiwawa, Tendamudzimu ; Krause, Rui W. M. …

Anti-HIV Ermiasolides from Croton megalocarpus.
In recent years, elucidation of novel anti-HIV bioactive compounds from natural products is gaining importance rapidly, not only from the research and publications, but also from controlled clinical studies. Here we report three new anti-HIV eudesmane-type sesquiterpenes, 5β-Hydroxy-8α-methoxy eudesm-7(11)-en-12,8-olide (1), 5β,8α-Dihydroxy eudesm-7(11)-en-12,8-olide (2) and 5β-Hydroxy-8H-β-eudesm-7(11)-en-12,8-olide (3). These are trivially named...Terefe, Ermias Mergia ; Okalebo, Faith Apolot ; Derese, Solomon ; Langat, Moses K. ; Mas-Claret, Eduard …

Coumarinolignoid and Indole Alkaloids from the Roots of the Hybrid Plant Citrus x paradisi Macfad. (Rutaceae).
A phytochemical investigation of the roots of Citrus x paradisi Macfad. (Rutaceae) led to the isolation of two new compounds, namely 1-formyl-5-hydroxy-N-methylindolin-1-ium (1) and decyloxycleomiscosin D (2), along with ten known compounds: 1,1-dimethylpyrrolidin-1-ium-2-carboxylate (3), furan-2,3-diol (4), 5-methoxyseselin (5), umbelliferone (6), scopoletin (7), citracridone I (8), citracridone II (9), citracridone III... -
