Ten new Lycopodium alkaloids having the lycopodane skeleton isolated from Lycopodium serratum Thunb. (1/21)
Ten new alkaloids, lycoposerramines-F (1), -G (2), -H (3), -I (4), -J (5), -K (6), -L (7), -M (8), -N (9), and -O (10), having lycopodine-related structures, were isolated from the club moss Lycopodium serratum THUNB. and their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and/or chemical transformation. (+info)High sensitivity 1H-NMR spectroscopy of homeopathic remedies made in water. (2/21)
BACKGROUND: The efficacy of homeopathy is controversial. Homeopathic remedies are made via iterated shaking and dilution, in ethanol or in water, from a starting substance. Remedies of potency 12 C or higher are ultra-dilute (UD), i.e. contain zero molecules of the starting material. Various hypotheses have been advanced to explain how a UD remedy might be different from unprepared solvent. One such hypothesis posits that a remedy contains stable clusters, i.e. localized regions where one or more hydrogen bonds remain fixed on a long time scale. High sensitivity proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has not previously been used to look for evidence of differences between UD remedies and controls. METHODS: Homeopathic remedies made in water were studied via high sensitivity proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. A total of 57 remedy samples representing six starting materials and spanning a variety of potencies from 6 C to 10 M were tested along with 46 controls. RESULTS: By presaturating on the water peak, signals could be reliably detected that represented H-containing species at concentrations as low as 5 microM. There were 35 positions where a discrete signal was seen in one or more of the 103 spectra, which should theoretically have been absent from the spectrum of pure water. Of these 35, fifteen were identified as machine-generated artifacts, eight were identified as trace levels of organic contaminants, and twelve were unexplained. Of the unexplained signals, six were seen in just one spectrum each. None of the artifacts or unexplained signals occurred more frequently in remedies than in controls, using a p < .05 cutoff. Some commercially prepared samples were found to contain traces of one or more of these small organic molecules: ethanol, acetate, formate, methanol, and acetone. CONCLUSION: No discrete signals suggesting a difference between remedies and controls were seen, via high sensitivity 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The results failed to support a hypothesis that remedies made in water contain long-lived non-dynamic alterations of the H-bonding pattern of the solvent. (+info)Effect of homeopathic medicines on transplanted tumors in mice. (3/21)
Ultra low doses used in homeopathic medicines are reported to have healing potential for various diseases but their action remains controversial. In this study we have investigated the antitumour and antimetastatic activity of selected homeopathic medicines against transplanted tumours in mice. It was found that Ruta graveolens 200c and Hydrastis canadensis 200c significantly increased the lifespan of Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma and Dalton's Lymphoma Ascites induced tumour-bearing animals by 49.7%, and 69.4% respectively. Moreover there was 95.6% and 95.8% reduction of solid tumour volume in Ruta 200c and Hydrastis 200c treated animals on the 31st day after tumour inoculation. Hydrastis 1M given orally significantly inhibited the growth of developed solid tumours produced by DLA cells and increased the lifespan of tumour bearing animals. Some 9 out of 15 animals with developed tumors were completely tumour free after treatment with Hydrastis 1M. Significant anti-metastatic activity was also found in B16F-10 melanoma-bearing animals treated with Thuja1M, Hydrastis 1M and Lycopodium1M. This was evident from the inhibition of lung tumour nodule formation, morphological and histopathological analysis of lung and decreased levels of gamma-GT in serum, a cellular marker of proliferation. These findings support that homeopathic preparations of Ruta and Hydrastis have significant antitumour activity. The mechanism of action of these medicines is not known at present.

(+info)Drug-induced liver injury due to "natural products" used for weight loss: a case report. (7/21)
Taking herbal-extracts to lose weight is an underestimated health hazard. Often, these products contain active agents that can cause acute liver damage. In this case report, a 22-year-old female patient, who presented with a feature of cholestatic syndrome, was so sure that the "natural products" were not dangerous that she did not inform her physicians that she had taken them, making their task that much more challenging. Clinical presentation mimicked acute cholecystitis and the patient underwent a cholecystectomy. Surgery was without any consequences and complications, although it did not completely cure the illness. She later admitted to having taken herbal remedies and this led to the correct diagnosis of phytotherapy-related hepatotoxicity and a successful therapeutic approach. The true incidence of phytotherapy-related hepatotoxicity and its pathogenic mechanisms are largely unknown. It is important to increase the awareness of both clinicians and patients about the potential dangers of herbal remedies. (+info)Lannotinidines H-J, new Lycopodium alkaloids from Lycopodium annotinum. (8/21)
Three new Lycopodium alkaloids, lannotinidines H-J (1-3), were isolated from the club moss Lycopodium annotinum. The structures and relative stereochemistry of 1-3 were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data and the absolute stereochemistry of 2 was assigned by chemical correlation. Lannotinidine H (1) is the first Lycopodium alkaloid possessing a lycopodane skeleton with an additional C(3) unit. (+info)"Lycopodium" is a term that has different meanings in various scientific and medicinal contexts. Medically, it often refers to a homeopathic remedy prepared from the spores of the plant Lycopodium clavatum, also known as club moss. This plant is a type of evergreen shrub native to Europe and some parts of North America. The spores are used in homeopathy due to their alleged healing properties, although there is limited scientific evidence supporting these claims.
It's important to note that the medical use and effectiveness of homeopathic remedies like Lycopodium are still a subject of debate within the medical community, and they should not be used as a substitute for evidence-based medical treatments unless recommended by a licensed healthcare professional.
Huperzia is actually not a medical term itself, but it refers to a genus of clubmosses (Huperzia serrata) that are found in Asia. This plant contains a compound called huperzine A, which has been studied for its potential cognitive-enhancing and neuroprotective effects.
Huperzine A is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, which means it can increase the levels of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the brain by blocking the enzyme that breaks it down. This has led to its investigation as a possible treatment for Alzheimer's disease and other neurological disorders characterized by cognitive decline.
While Huperzia itself is not a medical term, huperzine A has been studied in clinical trials and is available as a dietary supplement in some countries. However, it is important to note that the use of huperzine A as a treatment for any medical condition should be done under the supervision of a healthcare provider, as it can have side effects and interact with other medications.
Heterocyclic compounds are organic molecules that contain a ring structure made up of at least one atom that is not carbon, known as a heteroatom. These heteroatoms can include nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, or other elements.
Bridged-ring heterocyclic compounds are a specific type of heterocyclic compound that contain two or more cyclic structures (rings) that are linked together by one or more atoms or groups of atoms, known as bridges. These bridges can be composed of carbon-carbon bonds or may include heteroatoms.
The presence of the bridged rings and heteroatoms in these compounds can significantly affect their chemical and physical properties, making them important in a variety of applications, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science.
Quinolizines are not a medical term, but a chemical classification for a group of compounds that contain a quinolizine ring in their structure. A quinolizine ring is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with eight pi electrons and consists of two benzene rings fused to a piperidine ring.
Quinolizines have been studied for their potential medicinal properties, including anti-malarial, anti-cancer, and anti-microbial activities. However, there are no currently approved drugs that contain quinolizine as the primary active ingredient. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a medical definition of 'Quinolizines.'
Alkaloids are a type of naturally occurring organic compounds that contain mostly basic nitrogen atoms. They are often found in plants, and are known for their complex ring structures and diverse pharmacological activities. Many alkaloids have been used in medicine for their analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and therapeutic properties. Examples of alkaloids include morphine, quinine, nicotine, and caffeine.
Aerial parts of plants refer to the above-ground portions of a plant, including leaves, stems, flowers, and fruits. These parts are often used in medicine, either in their entirety or as isolated extracts, to take advantage of their medicinal properties. The specific components of aerial parts that are used in medicine can vary depending on the plant species and the desired therapeutic effects. For example, the leaves of some plants may contain active compounds that have anti-inflammatory or analgesic properties, while the flowers of others may be rich in antioxidants or compounds with sedative effects. In general, aerial parts of plants are used in herbal medicine to treat a wide range of conditions, including respiratory, digestive, and nervous system disorders, as well as skin conditions and infections.
Deoxyribose is a type of sugar that makes up the structural backbone of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), one of the two main types of nucleic acids in cells. The chemical formula for deoxyribose is C5H10O4, and it has a five-carbon ring structure with four hydroxyl (-OH) groups and one hydrogen atom attached to the carbons.
The key difference between deoxyribose and ribose, which makes up the structural backbone of RNA (ribonucleic acid), is that deoxyribose lacks a hydroxyl group on the second carbon atom in its ring structure. This small difference has significant implications for the structure and function of DNA compared to RNA.
Deoxyribose plays an essential role in the replication, transcription, and repair of genetic material in cells. It forms the sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA by linking with phosphate groups through ester bonds between the 3' carbon atom of one deoxyribose molecule and the 5' carbon atom of another, creating a long, twisted ladder-like structure known as a double helix. The nitrogenous bases adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine attach to the 1' carbon atom of each deoxyribose molecule in the DNA strand, forming pairs that are complementary to each other (adenine with thymine and guanine with cytosine).
Overall, deoxyribose is a crucial component of DNA, enabling the storage and transmission of genetic information from one generation to the next.
Stereoisomerism is a type of isomerism (structural arrangement of atoms) in which molecules have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms, but differ in the three-dimensional orientation of their atoms in space. This occurs when the molecule contains asymmetric carbon atoms or other rigid structures that prevent free rotation, leading to distinct spatial arrangements of groups of atoms around a central point. Stereoisomers can have different chemical and physical properties, such as optical activity, boiling points, and reactivities, due to differences in their shape and the way they interact with other molecules.
There are two main types of stereoisomerism: enantiomers (mirror-image isomers) and diastereomers (non-mirror-image isomers). Enantiomers are pairs of stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other, but cannot be superimposed on one another. Diastereomers, on the other hand, are non-mirror-image stereoisomers that have different physical and chemical properties.
Stereoisomerism is an important concept in chemistry and biology, as it can affect the biological activity of molecules, such as drugs and natural products. For example, some enantiomers of a drug may be active, while others are inactive or even toxic. Therefore, understanding stereoisomerism is crucial for designing and synthesizing effective and safe drugs.
