Ptaquiloside, the major carcinogen of bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum), was isolated in high yield from milled freeze-dried plant material. Because the compound is unstable, a new method was devised to avoid steps which caused loss of activity. Modern multipulse and 2D NMR techniques allowed confirmation of the previously proposed structure, although some assignments were shown to be incorrect.
The effect of wedeloside, an atractyloside analogue occurring in the Australian weed Wedelia asperrima, on the ADP/ATP carrier is investigated on 3 levels; the ADP stimulated respiration, the ADP/ATP exchange, and the binding in competition with atractylate (ATR) and carboxyatractylate (CAT). The inhibition of respiration and of ADP/ATP exchange by wedeloside is nearly uncompetitive with ADP. The...
