orientalis

Mast Cell Degranulating Peptide HR-2 acetate from giant hornet Vespa orientalis that has biological effects similar to mast cell degranulating peptide from bee venom.

Darutigenol has obvious antithrombotic effect, its mechanism may be related to inhibition of platelet aggregation and adhesion.

Siegesmethyletheric acid, isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction of Siegesbeckia orientalis L. (Asteraceae), exhibits distinctive properties as a chemical compound derived from this specific source.

(2E)-Leocarpinolide F (Compound 20), a germacrane-type sesquiterpenoid, is isolated from Sigesbeckia orientalis [1].

4'-O-Methyllicoflavanone is isolated from the stem bark of Erythrina orientalis and shows antioxidant activity against DPPH radical with an IC50 value of 648.1 μM.

Alisol C can improve glucose uptake in Hep G2 cells, it may be one of the therapeutic material basis in hypoglycemic activities in A. orientalis. Alisol C,16,23-oxido-alisol B and alisol O in Zexie may cause nephrotoxicity.

Darendoside B is a new phenethyl alcohol glycosides, were isolated from the methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Scutellaria orientalis subsp.

Leocarpinolide F, a sesquiterpenoid naturally derived from Siegesbeckia orientalis [1], exhibits an ability to inhibit (anti-feedant) and demonstrates significant insecticidal activity (toxicity) against plant herbivore pests such as Spodoptera littoralis larvae.

1. Kirenol (Kirel) has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, and anti-arthritic activities. 2. Kirenol is effective against gram-positive bacteria. 3. Kirenol possesses antitumor action on human chronic myeloid leukemia K562 cells in vitro. 4. Kirenol is capable of promoting osteoblast differentiation in MC3T3-E1 cells through activation of the BMP and Wnt β-catenin signaling pathways. 5. Kirenol treatment reduces pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion, increases anti-inflammatory cytokine production, inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis of CII-specific lymphocytes in vitro.
