Kinetics and molecular docking studies of an anti-diabetic complication inhibitor fucosterol from edible brown algae Eisenia bicyclis and Ecklonia stolonifera.
Chem. Biol. Interact. 206(1) , 55-62, (2013) In the present study, we investigated the anti-diabetic potential of fucosterol by evaluating the ability of this compound to inhibit rat lens aldose reductase (RLAR), human recombinant aldose reductase (HRAR), protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), and α-g... |

The effect of traditional stir-frying process on hydrophilic and lipophilic antioxidant capacities of pine nut kernels.
Int. J. Food Sci. Nutr. 66 , 873-80, (2015) The effect of traditional stir-frying process at different heating temperatures (50-150 °C) and time periods (5-20 min) on hydrophilic part (total and individual phenolics), lipophilic part (tocopherol and phytosterol compounds) and their corresponding antiox... |

Inhibition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth by saringosterol from Lessonia nigrescens.
J. Nat. Prod. 64(11) , 1463-4, (2001) Assay-guided fractionation of an antitubercular extract obtained from Lessonia nigrescens yielded the phytosterol saringosterol as its active component. No appreciable toxicity against Vero cells was observed for this compound. Saringosterol was also synthesi... |

Visible fibrinolysis by endothelial cells: effect of vitamins and sterols.
Biosci. Rep. 6(12) , 1029-33, (1986) We have succeeded in corroborating the enhancing effect of vitamin A, vitamin C, sitosterol and fucosterol on the fibrinolytic activity of endothelial cells. The assay system consisted of an in situ dissolution of a fibrin layer coated onto a culture dish, ov... |

Isolation of two new C30 sterols, (24E)-24-N-propylidenecholesterol and 24 epsilon-N-propylcholesterol, from a cultured marine Chrysophyte.
Steroids 35(2) , 219-31, (1980) Two new sterols, (24E)-24-n-propylidenecholesterol and 24 epsilon-n-propylcholesterol, were isolated from a cultured marine Chrysophyte. Since most of the steroids found in marine invertebrates are unchanged or modified sterols of algal or symbiotic origin, t... |

Sterol metabolism in the oomycete Aphanomyces euteiches, a legume root pathogen.
New Phytol. 183(2) , 291-300, (2009) Sterols are isoprenoid-derived molecules that have essential functions in eukaryotes but whose metabolism remains largely unknown in a large number of organisms. Oomycetes are fungus-like microorganisms that are evolutionarily related to stramenopile algae, a... |

Anti-diabetic activities of fucosterol from Pelvetia siliquosa.
Arch. Pharm. Res. 27(11) , 1120-2, (2004) Fucosterol isolated from Pelvetia siliquosa was tested for its anti-diabetic activity in vivo. Fucosterol, when administered orally at 30 mg/kg in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, was caused a significant decrease in serum glucose concentrations, and exh... |

Anti-oxidant activities of fucosterol from the marine algae Pelvetia siliquosa.
Arch. Pharm. Res. 26(9) , 719-22, (2003) The anti-oxidant activities of fucosterol isolated from the marine algae Pelvetia siliquosa were investigated. Fucosterol exhibited a significant decrease in serum transaminase activities elevated by hepatic damage induced by CCl4-intoxication in rats. Fucost... |

A succinylanthranilic acid ester and other bioactive constituents of Jolyna laminarioides.
Phytochemistry 46(7) , 1215-8, (1997) Methyl 2-[propanamide-2'-methoxycarbonyl] benzoate, fucosterol, trans-phytol and p-formylphenol were isolated for the first time from a methanolic extract of Jolyna laminarioides. Methyl 2-[propanamide-2'-methoxycarbonyl]-benzoate exhibited chymotrypsin inhib... |
