Chemistry and biology of Phenolics isolated from Myricaria germanica (L.) Desv. (Tamaricaceae)
(2014)
In accordance with the recent worldwide interest in plant phenolics, which emerges from their broad range of biological activities, particular emphasis has been focused, in the present thesis, on the constitutive phenolics of the extract of Myricaria germanica (L.) Desv. (Tamaricaceae). During the current thesis twenty phenolics (1 – 20) were isolated and identified from the aqueous/ethanol extract of the whole Myricaria germanica plant. The isolates include four hitherto unknown natural phenolics (2, 10, 12 and 20). Also, the cytotoxic activities of M. germanica extract, column fractions, and one new natural isolate against three different solid tumor cell lines, namely, breast cancer (MCF-7), prostate (PC-3), and liver (Huh-7) cancer cell using SRB viability assay have been investigated and first insights into mode of action have been obtained.
