'Dopamine-first' mechanism enables the rational engineering of the norcoclaurine synthase aldehyde activity profile.

FEBS J. 282(6) , 1137-51, (2015)

Norcoclaurine synthase (NCS) (EC 4.2.1.78) catalyzes the Pictet-Spengler condensation of dopamine and an aldehyde, forming a substituted (S)-tetrahydroisoquinoline, a pharmaceutically important moiety. This unique activity has led to NCS being used for both i...

Monoterpene (-)-citronellal affects hepatocarcinoma cell signaling via an olfactory receptor.

Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 566 , 100-9, (2015)

Terpenes are the major constituents of essential oils in plants. In recent years, terpenes have become of clinical relevance due to their ability to suppress cancer development. Their effect on cellular proliferation has made them promising agents in the prev...

Mining biologically-active molecules for inhibitors of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH): Identification of phenmedipham and amperozide as FAAH inhibitors

Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 19 , 6793-6, (2009)

The screening of known medicinal agents against new biological targets has been shown to be a valuable approach for revealing new pharmacology of marketed compounds. Recently, carbamate, urea and ketone inhibitors of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) have bee...

Evaluation of the masking of dimethyl sulfide odors by citronellal, limonene and citral through the use of trained odor sensor mice.

Chem. Senses 38(1) , 57-65, (2013)

Previous studies indicate that the most common result of mixing two odors is the decreased olfactory perception of one or both components in the mixture. An excellent example of this phenomenon is provided by the masking of an unpleasant odor by a pleasant od...

Citronellal, a monoterpene present in Java citronella oil, attenuates mechanical nociception response in mice.

Pharm. Biol. 51(9) , 1144-9, (2013)

Citronellal is a monoterpene present in the oil of many species, including Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt (Poaceae).The present study investigated the effect of citronellal on inflammatory nociception induced by different stimuli and examined the involvement o...

On the synergistic catalytic properties of bimetallic mesoporous materials containing aluminum and zirconium: the Prins cyclisation of citronellal.

Chemistry 17 , 2077-88, (2011)

Bimetallic three-dimensional amorphous mesoporous materials, Al-Zr-TUD-1 materials, were synthesised by using a surfactant-free, one-pot procedure employing triethanolamine (TEA) as a complexing reagent. The amount of aluminium and zirconium was varied in ord...

Characterization of biofumigated Ralstonia solanacearum cells using micro-Raman spectroscopy and electron microscopy.

Phytopathology 102(1) , 105-13, (2012)

Essential oils of palmarosa, lemongrass, and eucalyptus have shown promise as biofumigants for control of the bacterial wilt disease of edible ginger (Zingiber officinale) caused by Ralstonia solanacearum race 4 in previous potting medium studies. Biochemical...

Influence of extraction methodologies on the analysis of five major volatile aromatic compounds of citronella grass (Cymbopogon nardus) and lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) grown in Thailand.

J. AOAC Int. 95(3) , 763-72, (2012)

This paper deals with the systematic comparison of extraction of major volatile aromatic compounds (VACs) of citronella grass and lemongrass by classical microhydrodistillation (MHD), as well as modern accelerated solvent extraction (ASE). Sixteen VACs were i...

Citronellal ingestion decreases the appeal of male mouse urinary pheromone for female mice.

Biosci. Biotechnol. Biochem. 76(9) , 1781-4, (2012)

To determine whether ingestion of citronellal decreases the attractive power of the male mouse urinary odor, female mice were used in preference tests. A series of tests revealed that the female mice preferred voided urine odors from aged mice over those from...

In vitro larvicidal activity of geraniol and citronellal against Contracaecum sp (Nematoda: Anisakidae).

Braz. J. Med. Biol. Res. 42(10) , 918-20, (2009)

Human infection with fish parasites can result from the ingestion of incompletely cooked or raw fish, giving origin to parasitic diseases such as anisakiasis, caused by parasites of the Anisakidae family. The present study assessed the in vitro larvicidal eff...
