(+)-Podocarpic acid as chiral template in the synthesis of aphidicolane, stemodane and stemarane diterpenoids: This article reviews the use of (+)-podocarpic acid in the synthesis of various diterpenoids, showcasing its utility in complex organic syntheses (La Bella et al., 2016).
We found that the podocarpic acid structure provides a new scaffold for chemical modulators of large-conductance calcium-activated K(+) channels (BK channels). Structure-activity analysis indicates the importance of both the arrangement (i.e., location and orientation) of the carboxylic acid functionality of

The Liver X Receptor (LXR) alpha and beta isoforms are members of the type II nuclear receptor family which function as a heterodimer with the Retinoid X Receptor (RXR). Upon agonist binding, the formation of the LXR/RXR heterodimer takes place
The present study was undertaken to assess and compare the in vitro cytotoxic effects of three resin acid analogues: dehydrobietic acid, podocarpic acid, O-methylpodocarpic acid; an essential oil from Australia (tea tree oil); and tapped oleoresin from Thailand, on human
Podocarpic acid was metabolized by Mucor ramannianus ATCC 9628, and Beauveria bassiana ATCC 7159 to afford two new metabolites, 2 alpha-hydroxy podocarpic acid and 11-hydroxy podocarpic acid, along with the known metabolite 13-hydroxy podocarbic acid. The identity of these metabolites

As a class, octahydrophenanthrene lactones, podolactones , and related podocarpic acid derivatives have been reported to possess a wide variety of biological activities, including antileukemic activity, inhibition of plant cell growth, and hormonal and anti-inflammatory properties. In the present study
