Abstract:
A phytochemical analysis of Lantana fucata dried leaves led to the isolation of three new phenylethanoid glycosides, fucatosides A-C, along with parvifloroside A and six known methoxyflavones. Their structures were established by NMR and ESIMS experiments. In vitro assays showed that the alcoholic extract and fucatoside C have significant anti-inflammatory effects, inhibiting NO release in the LPS-induced J774.A1 murine macrophage cell line.
