Published: July 2006

Bioassay-guided fractionation of Acicarpha tribuloides Juss. resulted in the isolation of an uncommon non-glycosylated secoiridoid, tribulolide (1), two known secoiridoid glycosides named secologanic acid (2) and vogeloside (3) as well as two natural chromones, 6,7-dimethoxychromone (4) and 7-hydroxy-6-methoxy-chromone (5). Compounds 1-3 showed inhibition of nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharide-activated macrophages; their activity is comparable to that of aminoguanidine, a classic inhibitor.
