Iridoids from Galium aparine

Abstract

The isolation and UV, IR, 1 Hand 13 C-NMR data of asperulosidic acid, 10-deacetylasperulosidic acid from Galium aparine L. aerial parts are reported.

Antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antiparasitic, and cytotoxic activities of Galium mexicanum

“…No tannins were detected in the assayed extract. These results are in agreement with previous works, which reported the isolation of similar components from other Galium species (Iavarone et al, 1983;Uesato et al, 1984;Handjieva et al, 1996;De Rosa et al, 2000;Deliorman et al, 2001;Zhao et al, 2006;Serrilli et al, 2008).…”

“…Compounds isolated from the genus Galium include iridoid glucosides and iridoidic acids (Iavarone et al, 1983;Uesato et al, 1984;Handjieva et al, 1996;Serrilli et al, 2008;De Rosa et al, 2000;Deliorman et al, 2001), triterpene saponins (De Rosa et al, 2000), anthraquinones (Halim et al, 1992;Koyama et al, 1993;Banthorpe and White, 1995;El-Gamal et al, 1995;Zhao et al, 2006), and flavonoids (Zhao et al, 2006).…”

UPLC–TOF-MS analysis of Galium spurium towards its neuroprotective and anticonvulsant activities

“…Standard compounds chlorogenic acid (327-97-9), quercetin (6151-25-3), rutin (207671-50-9), ursolic acid (77-52-1) used in TOF-MS analysis were purchased from Sigma Aldrich Co., St. Louis, MO, USA and isoquercitrin (482-35-9) from Fluka, Germany; asperulosidic acid, deacetyl-asperulosidic acid, isoorientin were isolated in the previous studies of the researchers (Deliorman et al, 2001;Sezik et al, 2005).…”

Galium aparine, goosegrass

“…This could be a useful first aid measure as Galium is used in Turkey to coagulate milk (Deliorman et al 2001). I use it as an ingredient in creams for swellings associated with arthritis, and in the treatment of boils with, for example, marshmallow root cream Althaea officinalis, tincture of myrrh Commiphora molmol and tea tree oil Melaleuca alternifolia.…”
