Polyphyletic origin of pyrrolizidine alkaloids within the Asteraceae. Evidence from differential tissue expression of homospermidine synthase. (2/12)

The evolution of pathways within plant secondary metabolism has been studied by using the pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) as a model system. PAs are constitutively produced by plants as a defense against herbivores. The occurrence of PAs is restricted to certain unrelated families within the angiosperms. Homospermidine synthase (HSS), the first specific enzyme in the biosynthesis of the necine base moiety of PAs, was originally recruited from deoxyhypusine synthase, an enzyme involved in the posttranslational activation of the eukaryotic initiation factor 5A. Recently, this gene recruitment has been shown to have occurred several times independently within the angiosperms and even twice within the Asteraceae. Here, we demonstrate that, within these two PA-producing tribes of the Asteraceae, namely Senecioneae and Eupatorieae, HSS is expressed differently despite catalyzing the same step in PA biosynthesis. Within Eupatorium cannabinum, HSS is expressed uniformly in all cells of the root cortex parenchyma, but not within the endodermis and exodermis. Within Senecio vernalis, HSS expression has been previously identified in groups of specialized cells of the endodermis and the adjacent root cortex parenchyma. This expression pattern was confirmed for Senecio jacobaea as well. Furthermore, the expression of HSS in E. cannabinum is dependent on the development of the plant, suggesting a close linkage to plant growth.  (+info)

Trypanocidal and leishmanicidal activities of flavonoids from Argentine medicinal plants. (3/12)

In vitro trypanocidal and leishmanicidal activities of the flavonoids hispidulin, from Ambrosia tenuifolia, and santin, from Eupatorium buniifolium, are reported. A sensitive technique that takes advantage of ((3)H)thymidine uptake by dividing trypanosomatids has been adjusted for quantification of the parasiticidal effect of the natural products. The IC(50) values for hispidulin and santin on Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigotes were 46.7 and 47.4 muM, respectively. On trypomastigotes, the IC(50) values were 62.3 microM for hispidulin and 42.1 microM for santin. Hispidulin was more active than santin on promastigotes of Leishmania mexicana (IC(50) = 6.0 microM versus 32.5 microM). No cytotoxic activity was observed on lymphoid cells, making hispidulin and santin potential lead compounds for the development of new natural drugs. This is the first report on the trypanocidal and leishmanicidal activities of these flavonoids and on the presence of santin in E. buniifolium.  (+info)

Sesquiterpenoids isolated from Eupatorium glehnii. Isolation of guaiaglehnin A, structure revision of Hiyodorilactone B, and genetic comparison. (4/12)

A new sesquiterpenoid substituted with unsaturated ester, guaiaglehnin A (1), along with 15 previously known compounds, were isolated from the methanol extract of the terrestrial part of Eupatorium glehnii (Compositae) collected in Nagano Prefecture, Japan, the results of which supported the previous study by Takahashi et al. The chemical constituents of E. glehnii collected in Nagano Prefecture and those collected in Tokushima or Hokkaido are quite different, depending on collection site, although the species are identical. The base sequences of three different samples were identical. Diversity in the chemical components was detected, though no diversity existed in the DNA sequence. In this study, eupasimplicin A (2) was also isolated, whose presence in the extract of E. chinense simplicifolium was recorded but not in an article. The side chain geometry of hiyodorilactone B (5) was revised to be E.  (+info)

Eupatorium is a genus of flowering plants in the aster family, Asteraceae, which includes several species commonly known as bonesets and Joe-Pye weeds, some of which have been used in traditional medicine for their supposed diaphoretic, anti-inflammatory, and fever-reducing properties.

"Eupatorium" is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, also known as the daisy family. These plants are native to North America and are commonly known as Joe-Pye weeds or thoroughworts. Some species of Eupatorium have been used in traditional medicine for their alleged healing properties, although there is limited scientific evidence to support these claims. It's important to note that some Eupatorium species can contain toxic compounds and should not be ingested without proper medical supervision.

Ageratina is a genus of primarily North American flowering plants in the daisy family, Asteraceae, which are often referred to as snakeroots or eupatoriums, and include several species with medicinal properties.

Ageratina is a genus of flowering plants in the aster family, Asteraceae. It includes several species that are commonly known as snakeroots or eupatoriums. These plants are native to North and Central America and are characterized by their clusters of small, white or purple flowers. Some species of Ageratina have medicinal properties and have been used in traditional medicine to treat various ailments, such as skin conditions, fever, and respiratory issues. However, it is important to note that some species of Ageratina can be toxic if ingested, so they should only be used under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.

'Sesquiterpenes, Germacrane' are bicyclic sesquiterpenoids that contain a germacrane skeleton, characterized by a decalin moiety with an endocyclic double bond and a trans-fused cyclopentane ring, formed through the biogenetic union of two isoprene units and synthesized via the mevalonate or methylerythritol phosphate pathways.

Sesquiterpenes are a class of terpenes that consist of three isoprene units and have the molecular formula C15H24. They are naturally occurring organic compounds that are synthesized by a variety of plants, insects, and other organisms. Sesquiterpenes play important roles in plant defense and communication, and some have been found to have medicinal properties.

Germacrane is a particular type of sesquiterpene that contains a specific carbon skeleton. It is a bicyclic compound with a five-membered ring fused to a seven-membered ring. Germacrane and its derivatives are found in various essential oils and have been studied for their potential therapeutic applications, including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer activities.

Chromolaena is a genus of flowering plants in the daisy family, Asteraceae, commonly found in tropical and subtropical regions, which includes several species that are considered invasive weeds due to their rapid growth and ability to outcompete native vegetation.

Chromolaena is a genus of flowering plants in the daisy family, Asteraceae. It includes several species that are native to the Americas and have been introduced to other parts of the world. Some Chromolaena species, such as Chromolaena odorata (Siam weed) and Chromolaena moszkowskii (Mozzkowski's crotalaria), are invasive weeds that can cause significant environmental and economic damage in areas where they have been introduced.

There is no specific medical definition associated with the term "Chromolaena" as it refers to a genus of plants, not a medical condition or treatment. However, some Chromolaena species have been used in traditional medicine for various purposes, such as treating skin conditions, wounds, and fever. It's important to note that the safety and efficacy of using Chromolaena for medicinal purposes have not been thoroughly studied, so it's recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before using any plant-based remedies.

Tenuazonic acid is a perylenequinone mycotoxin, produced primarily by the plant pathogenic fungus Sharpelyella lycopersici (formerly known as Phoma exigua var. lycopersici), known to have phytotoxic and cytotoxic effects, and potential use as a chemotherapeutic agent, but also associated with food safety concerns due to its occurrence in grains and other crops.

Tenuazonic acid is a mycotoxin, which is a toxic compound produced by certain types of fungi. It is primarily produced by the fungus Alternaria spp., and can be found in various food sources such as grains, vegetables, and fruits that have been contaminated with this fungus.

Tenuazonic acid has been reported to have several toxic effects, including neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and genotoxicity. It has also been shown to inhibit protein synthesis in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, which can lead to cell death. Exposure to tenuazonic acid can occur through the ingestion of contaminated food or inhalation of contaminated air.

It is important to note that exposure to high levels of tenuazonic acid can be harmful to human health, and regulatory bodies have set limits on the allowable levels of this mycotoxin in food and feed. However, further research is needed to fully understand the potential health risks associated with exposure to tenuazonic acid.
