One new flavanoid and Anti-HIV active constituents from boussingaultia gracilis miers var. pseudobaselloides bailey

Boussingaultia gracilis Miers var. pseudobaselloides Bailey (Basellaccae) is a folk medicine used as an analgesic and supplements, only a few research was reported on the chemical constituents of this plant. This paper presented its chemical and anti-HIV

Two new compounds and anti-HIV active constituents from Illicium verum

Two new compounds named illiverin A (1) and tashironin A (8) were, isolated from the roots of Illicium verum, together with seven known compounds: 4-allyl-2-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-1,6-methylenedioxybenzene-3-ol (2), illicinole (3), 3-hydroxy-4,5-methylenedi

Expression of VEGFR-2 on HaCaT cells is regulated by VEGF and plays an active role in mediating VEGF induced effects

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor VEGFR-2 play important roles in mitogenesis and chemotaxis of endothelial cells. In normal human skin, VEGF is expressed and secreted by epidermal keratinocytes. Emerging data suggest that keratin

Active wavelength control of tunable lasers for use in Un cooled WDM systems

It is shown for the first time that uncooled tunable DBR-laser diodes can be used as athermal WDM sources. Using novel bias current control, absolute wavelength control to within 6Å has been achieved for temperatures up to 70°C. © 2000 Optical Society of America.
