  • Title: Triterpenes and a triterpene glucoside from Dysoxylum cumingianum.
    Author: Kurimoto S, Kashiwada Y, Lee KH, Takaishi Y.
    Journal: Phytochemistry; 2011 Dec; 72(17):2205-11. PubMed ID: 21899865.
    Abstract:
    Six triterpenes and a triterpene glucoside were isolated from the MeOH extract of the leaves of Dysoxylum cumingianum together with three known triterpenes. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses. In cytotoxicity assays against three human cancer cell lines, including a multi-drug resistant cancer cell line (KB-C2), compounds 1, 2 and 5 demonstrated significantly enhanced cytotoxicity against KB-C2 cells in the presence of 2.5 μM colchicine, as compared with those in the absence of colchicine. This result suggested that these triterpenes might show some MDR-reversing effects.
