Semi-empirical molecular orbital calculations at AM1 level were done with the aim to investigate the structure-activity relationships of antispasmodic activities of ten 2-(X-benzyloxy)-4,6-dimethoxyacetophenones with X = H, 4'-F, 4'-NO2, 4'-CH3, 4'-Cl, 3',4'-(CH3)2, 4'-OCH3, 4'-Br, 4'-OCH2C6H5, and 4'-C(CH3)3, against acetylcholine-induced contraction
The inhibitory action of the major constituent of Sebastiania schottiana (Euphorbiaceae), 2-hydroxy-4,6-dimethoxyacetophenone (xanthoxyline) on contractions induced by agonists and electrical stimulation of smooth and cardiac muscle preparations was analysed. Xanthoxyline (30 to 300 microM) inhibited contractions of the rat uterus
Eighteen analogues of an active natural chalcone were synthesized using xanthoxyline and some derivatives, and these analogues were tested for selective activity against both promastigotes and intracellular amastigotes of Leishmania amazonensis in vitro. Three analogues (10, 12, and 19) containing

A wide variety of noxious stimuli are known to induce a sensation of pain evoked in a remote region of the body. Here, we show that chalcones can inhibit the pain provoked by the administration of an intraperitoneal acetic acid

The antinociceptive effect of the novel xanthoxyline derivative 2-(4-bromobenzoyl)-3-methyl-4-6-dimethoxy benzofuran) (BMDB), given i.p., p.o., s.c., subplantarly, intrathecally or by i.c.v. routes was assessed in five models of chemical and thermal nociception in mice, namely acetic acid-induced abdominal constriction, formalin and
