Published: July 2002

Aim: In order to look for new active compounds, the structure of (+)-praeruptorin A is modified.

Methods: (+)-Praeruptorin A was isolated from the root of Peucedanum praeruptorum, basic hydrolysis of (+)-praeruptorin A and acyled reactions of hydrolysis product of (+)-praeruptorin A were carried out.

Results: Eighteen compounds were semi-synthesized from (+)-praeruptorin A.

Conclusion: Fourteen compounds (5-18) among them are new compounds. Preliminary bioactivity assay indicated that the new compounds show calcium antagonist activity, but they are not as strong as (+)-praeruptorin A.

The dried root of Peucedanum praeruptorum is often used medicinally and has high pyran- and furanocoumarin content. Although exogenous melatonin (MT) impacts the regulation of plant growth, stress responses, secondary metabolism, etc., it remains unclear whether MT regulates the vegetative growth and development of P.

Doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiomyopathy (DIC) greatly limits its clinical application of the anticancer drug. Therefore, there is an immediate necessity to undertake intervention studies to minimize DIC, encompassing the screening of regulatory compounds and delving into the underlying regulatory mechanisms. A growing body of research suggests that ferroptosis is an essential process in the development of DIC.

MYB transcription factors in Peucedanum Praeruptorum Dunn: the diverse roles of the R2R3-MYB subfamily in mediating coumarin biosynthesis.

BMC Plant Biol

November 2024

Anhui Dabieshan Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Anhui Engineering Research Center for Eco-agriculture of Traditional Chinese Medicine, College of Biological and Pharmaceutical Engineering, West Anhui University, Lu'an, 237012, China.

Background: The MYB superfamily (v-myb avian myeloblastosis viral oncogene homolog) plays a role in plant growth and development, environmental stress defense, and synthesis of secondary metabolites. Little is known about the regulatory function of MYB genes in Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn, although many MYB family members, especially R2R3-MYB genes, have been extensively studied in model plants.

Results: A total of 157 R2R3-MYB transcription factors from P.
