Cryptocarya
Comparative chemical analysis of the essential oil constituents in the bark, heartwood and fruits of Cryptocarya massoy (Oken) Kosterm. (Lauraceae) from Papua New Guinea. (1/6)
Exhaustive hydro-distillation of the bark, heartwood and fruits of Cryptocarya massoy (Lauraceae) afforded pale yellow-coloured oils in 0.7, 1.2 and 1.0 % yields, respectively. Detailed chemical evaluation of these distillates using GC/MS revealed the major components in the bark and the heartwood oils to be the C-10 (5,6-dihydro-6-pentyl-2H-pyran-2-one) and C-12 (5,6-dihydro-6-heptyl-2H-pyran-2-one) massoia lactones, while the major fruit oil constituent was benzyl benzoate (68.3 %). The heartwood also contained trace amounts of the C-14 (5,6-dihydro-6-nonyl-2H-pyran-2-one) massoia lactone (1.4 %) and the saturated C-10 derivative delta-decalactone (2.5 %).

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the cytotoxic ethanol extract of Cryptocarya chinensis has led to the isolation of 11 compounds, including two phenanthroindolizidine alkaloids [(-)-antofine (1) and dehydroantofine (2)], five pavine alkaloids (3-7), and four proaporphine alkaloids (8-11). The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by means of NMR spectroscopic methods, and supported by HRMS and optical rotation data. Compounds 1 and 2 showed cytotoxic activity against four cancer cell lines, L1210, P388, A549, and HCT-8, with 1 being the most potent against A549 and HCT-8 with EC50 values of 0.002 and 0.001 microg/mL, respectively. In addition, 2 is first reported to exhibit significant anti-HIV activity.

(+info)"Cryptocarya" is a genus of flowering plants in the family Lauraceae, which includes trees and shrubs that are native to tropical regions of the world. These plants have simple, alternate leaves and small flowers with both male and female reproductive structures. The fruits of many species are fleshy and drupel-like, containing a single seed.
The name "Cryptocarya" comes from the Greek words "kryptos," meaning hidden, and "karpos," meaning fruit, which refers to the fact that the fruits of some species are enclosed within fleshy structures or bracts.
It is important to note that "Cryptocarya" is not a medical term, but rather a taxonomic name used in botany to classify and describe a particular group of plants. While some species of Cryptocarya may have medicinal uses, the genus itself does not have a specific medical definition or application.
I apologize for any confusion, but "Lauraceae" is not a medical term. It is a taxonomic category in botany, referring to the Laurel family of plants, which includes several genera and species of trees and shrubs. Some well-known members of this family include laurels, cinnamon, bay leaves, and avocados.
If you have any questions related to medical terminology or health sciences, I would be happy to help. Please provide me with the necessary details so I can offer an accurate response.
