General description

Diphyllin, a major glycoside compound, is a plant-derived lignan. It is present in Cleistanthus collinus.

Application

Diphyllin has been used to study its antibacterial and antibiofilm activities against fish pathogens.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Diphyllin has shown potential to be used in a novel treatment for bone problems characterized by excessive resorption.
Diphyllin is a natural arylnaphthalene that exhibits potent anticancer and antiviral activities. It is a potent inhibitor of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) that inhibits lysosomal acidification in osteoclasts.

The vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) has recently been proposed as a key target for new strategies in cancer treatment. Our previous work has proved that diphyllin glycoside is a novel inhibitor of V-ATPase. Here the cytotoxic effects of ZT-25, the most

Dissolution of the inorganic phase of bone by the osteoclasts mediated by V-ATPase and ClC-7 is a prerequisite for bone resorption. Inhibitors of osteoclastic V-ATPase or ClC-7 are novel approaches for inhibition of osteoclastic bone resorption. By testing natural compounds

The concise syntheses of two natural diphyllin glycosides Cleistanthin-A (CA), Cleistanthoside-A (CleA) and its derivative, Cleistanthoside-A tetraacetate (CleT), have been achieved. They were evaluated for their in vitro anti-proliferative activities against MCF-7, HeLa, HepG2, HCT-116, U251 cancer cell lines by
