The Diterpenoids of the Genus Elaeoselinum (Apiaceae) and their Biological Properties
2008
The natural kaurane, beyerane and atisane diterpenoids isolated from the genus Elaeoselinum (Apiaceae)and their semi-synthetic derivatives are reviewed. Published 13C NMR spectroscopic data and biological properties of these diterpenes are also reported.
Cytotoxic activity of diterpenoids isolated from the aerial parts of Elaeoselinum asclepium subsp. meoides.
2008
The phytochemical investigation of the acetone extract of the aerial parts of Elaeoselinum asclepium (L.) Bertol. subsp. meoides (Desf.) Fiori afforded several known diterpenoids as well as meoidic acid ( 5), new in the literature. The cytotoxic activities of elasclepic acid ( 1), ENT-atis-16-en-19-oic acid ( 2), ent-beyer-15-en-19-oic acid ( 3), ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid ( 4) and meoidic acid ( 5) were investigated on rat glioma C6 cells by evaluation of cell growth inhibition.
L'eleoselino nella tradizione popolare siciliana
2009
Elaeoselinum asclepium (L.) Bertol. subspecie asclepium è una specie della flora mediterranea il cui uso tradizionale, in Sicilia, è noto già dal XIX secolo. Lo scopo del presente lavoro è stato quello di intraprendere un’indagine etno-antropologica finalizzata al recupero delle conoscenze sugli usi tradizionali della specie. Tale attività è stata condotta mediante ricerche bibliografiche e interviste a persone esperte di tradizioni rurali. La ricerca, inoltre, ha previsto una ricognizione nel territorio delle province di Agrigento, Palermo e Trapani al fine di individuare siti caratterizzati da popolamenti naturali di eleoselino. Su un consistente popolamento di eleoselino, individuato nel…
Chemical composition of the essential oil of Elaeoselinum asclepium (L.) Bertol subsp. meoides (Desf.) Fiori (Umbelliferae) collected wild in Central…

In the present study, the chemical composition of the essential oils from flowers and leaves of Elaeoselinum asclepium(L.) Bertol subsp. meoides(Desf.) Fiori collected in Central Sicily was evaluated by GC and GC-MS. The main volatile components of the flowers were alpha-phellandrene (42.5%), terpinolene (15.7%), p-cymene (11.6%) and beta-phellandrene (10.2%), whereas the ones of the leaves were p-cymene (44.0%), alpha-pinene (13.2%), alpha-phellandrene (11.0%), beta-phellandrene (10.2%) and beta-pinene (9.2%). Furthermore, the antibacterial and antifungal activities against some microorganisms infesting historical art craft were determined. The essential oil from leaves (EL) showed to be p…
