(4-Methoxyphenyl)(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)methanone (PHT) is a known cytotoxic compound belonging to the phenstatin family. However, the exact mechanism of action of PHT-induced cell death remains to be determined. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying PHT-induced cytotoxicity. We found that PHT displayed potent cytotoxicity in different tumor cell lines, showing IC50 values in the n...

A busca por herbicidas eficientes e ambientalmente corretos tem sido foco de numerosos estudos sobre a síntese de compostos isolados de fontes naturais. Citosporonas, as quais são lipídeos fenólicos isolados de fungos, apresentam notáveis propriedades biológicas. Este artigo relata a preparação das citosporonas A, B e C, através de uma rota sintética curta e com excelentes rendimentos. Os compostos sintetizados...
