Six-day-old tobacco seedlings rapidly incorporated and metabolized exogenously supplied [4-14C]-sitosterol, but none of the radioactivity was recovered from stigmasterol. However, exogenously supplied [2-14C]-mevalonic acid was incorporated into both sitosterol and stigmasterol. Based on these results it is suggested that the biosynthetic pathway of stigmasterol is not via sitosterol but that both sterols have a common precursor. 相似文献

Investigation of yellow flower extract of Tagetes patula L. led to the identification of an aggregate of five phytoceramides. Among them, (2R)‐2‐hydroxy‐N‐[(2S,3S,4R,8E)‐1,3,4‐trihydroxyicos‐8‐en‐2‐yl]icosanamide, (2R)‐2‐hydroxy‐N‐[(2S,3S,4R,8E)‐1,3,4‐trihydroxyicos‐8‐en‐2‐yl]heneicosanamide, (2R)‐2‐hydroxy‐N‐[(2S,3S,4R,8E)‐1,3,4‐trihydroxyicos‐8‐en‐2‐yl]docosanamide, and (2R)‐2‐hydroxy‐N‐[(2S,3S,4R,8E)‐1,3,4‐trihydroxyicos‐8‐en‐2‐yl]tricosanamide were identified as new compounds and termed as tagetceramides, whereas (2R)‐2‐hydroxy‐N‐[(2S,3S,4R,8E)‐1,3,4‐trihydroxyicos‐8‐en‐2‐yl]tetracosanamide was a known ceramide. A steroid (β‐sitosterol glucoside) was also isolated from the subsequent fraction. The structures of these compounds were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analyses, as well as chemical method. Several other compounds were also identified by GC/MS analysis. The fractions and some commercial products, a ceramide HFA, β‐sitosterol, and stigmasterol were evaluated against an economically important cyst nematode, Heterodera zeae. Ceramide HFA showed 100 % mortality, whereas, β‐sitosterol and stigmasterol were 40–50 % active, at 1 % concentration after 24 h of exposure time, while β‐sitosterol glucoside revealed no activity against the nematode. 相似文献

Protective effect of Abutilon indicum against lead-induced reproductive toxicity in male Wistar rats
Despite ample literature on the toxic impact of lead on the environment and health, the exact mechanism of pathogenesis/toxicity is not clearly known. Because it is well established that lead induces oxidative stress, it is assumed that exposure to antioxidants may reduce the toxic impact of lead. In this study, we evaluated the impact of coadministration of the methanolic root extract of a plant Abutilon indicum (50, 100, 200 mg kg −1b.wt.) in mitigating the toxic impact of lead on the reproductive system of rats. In brief, Wistar rats were exposed to lead acetate in drinking water with or without coadministration of plant root extract and compared with that of control animals. After 45 days of exposure as outlined above, the animals were killed and the reproductive toxicity was assessed by sperm parameters, hormone and antioxidant enzyme assays, and testis histopathology. Significant reduction in testis weight, sperm count, testosterone levels, and antioxidant enzymes levels such as Superoxide Dismutase, Catalase, and Glutathione peroxidase was seen in lead-treated animals, confirming the toxic impact. The coadministration of A. Indicum (100 and 200 mg kg −1b.wt.) was found to bring the studied parameters close to the levels seen in untreated (control) animals. Our findings are indicative of the protective nature of A. Indicum against lead-induced reproductive toxicity in a dose-dependent manner. However, further characterization of the root extract is required to elucidate the probable mechanism of protection. 相似文献

Free 4-desmethylsterols from fibrous roots of 6 citrus rootstocks were identified by combined gas chromatography and mass spectrometry as campesterol, stigmasterol, sitosterol and cholesterol (minor component). No isofucosterol was present. 相似文献

The free sterol and phospholipid of the leaves and roots of Triticum aestivum var. MEC seedlings, grown at different temperatures, were determined. During growth, free sterols increased in the leaves and roots at optimum temperature (21°) whereas in the cold treatment (1°) they remained significantly unchanged despite an increase of cholesterol of the leaves indicating a higher degree of regulation of membrane structure under cold conditions. Phospholipid from both groups of plants increased in the leaves and in the roots during all the experimental period, although at a lower degree in the cold treated plants. The molar ratio of free sterol/phospholipids suggested a less ordered membrane structure in the cold treated leaves and roots. 相似文献

Ostreolysin, a cytolytic protein from the edible oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus), recognizes and binds specifically to membrane domains enriched in cholesterol and sphingomyelin (or saturated phosphatidylcholine). These events, leading to permeabilization of the membrane, suggest that a cholesterol-rich liquid-ordered membrane phase, which is characteristic of lipid rafts, could be its possible binding site. In this work, we present effects of ostreolysin on membranes containing various steroids. Binding and membrane permeabilizing activity of ostreolysin was studied using lipid mono- and bilayers composed of sphingomyelin combined, in a 1/1 molar ratio, with natural and synthetic steroids (cholesterol, ergosterol, β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, lanosterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol, cholesteryl acetate, and 5-cholesten-3-one). Binding to membranes and lytic activity of the protein are both shown to be dependent on the intact sterol 3β-OH group, and are decreased by introducing additional double bonds and methylation of the steroid skeleton or C17-isooctyl chain. The activity of ostreolysin mainly correlates with the ability of the steroids to promote formation of liquid-ordered membrane domains, and is the highest with cholesterol-containing membranes. Furthermore, increasing the cholesterol concentration enhanced ostreolysin binding in a highly cooperative manner, suggesting that the membrane lateral distribution and accessibility of the sterols are crucial for the activity of this new member of cholesterol-dependent cytolysins. 相似文献

A simple amide, N-2-phenylethylcinnamamide and three known compounds, stigmasterol and taraxasteryl and lupeyl acetates, were isolated from the leaves of Spilanthes ocymifolia. The structure of the cinnamamide derivative was established by spectroscopic means and confirmed by synthesis. 相似文献
