R. Ikeda et al., ANTIPROLIFERATIVE CONSTITUENTS IN UMBELLIFERAE PLANTS - IV - CONSTITUENTS IN THE FRUITS OF ANTHRISCUS-SYLVESTRIS HOFFM, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 46(5), 1998, pp. 875-878
The constituents in the fruit of Anthriscus sylvestris HOFFM, were inv
estigated, and four lignans [deoxypodophyllotoxin, morelensin, (-)-deo
xypodorhizorne, and (-)-hinokinin], one phenylpropanoid 1-(3',4'-dimet
hoxyphenyl)-1-xi-hydroxy-2-propene], two phenylpropanoid esters [3',4'
-dimethoxycinnamyl (Z)-2-angeloyloxymethyl-2-butenoate and 3',4'-dimet
hoxycinnamyl (Z)-2-tigloyloxymethyl-2-butenoate], and one polyacetylen
ic compound (falcarindiol) were isolated. Their antiproliferative acti
vity against MK-1, HeLa and B16F10 cell lines is reported.
