The interactions of fish sperm deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) with anthraquinones, such as chrysophanol, physcion and 1,8-dihydroxy anthraquinone, were investigated by using ethidium bromide (EB) as fluorescence probe. The binding constants of anthraquinones and DNA were obtained by the fluorescence quenching
Danthron is an important natural occurring component in laxative drugs. In this paper, electrochemical investigation of danthron and its interaction with DNA is reported. Via the electrochemical approach assisted by ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, we have proved that danthron intercalates into

Eggs of several insect species are protected against natural enemies by noxious components. However, almost nothing is known about the fate of these defensive substances during egg development nor their site of biosynthesis. The eggs of several leaf beetle species
1-Hydroxy-10-methoxy-dibenz[b,e]oxepin-6,11-dione (1) was obtained from the culture broth of a marine-derived fungus, Beauveria bassiana TPU942, isolated from a marine sponge collected at Iriomote Island in Okinawa, together with two known compounds, chrysazin (2) and globosuxanthone A (3). The structure of
Our primary studies had shown that danthron induced cytotoxic effects, including apoptosis and inhibition of migration and invasion. However, danthron-affected DNA damage and repair gene expressions are not clear. In this study, we investigated to examine whether or not danthron
