Abstract:
A new ent-abietane diterpernoid, named ebracteolata D (1), along with 11 known analogues, was isolated from the roots of Euphorbia ebracteolata Hayata. The structure of 1 was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and molecular modeling. Cytotoxicity of compounds 1-12 was evaluated as well as the effect on the NF-κB pathway. Among them, compound 12, jolkinolide B, displayed broad inhibitory effects against proliferation of tumor cell lines. Mechanistic studies indicated that the compound 12 can inhibit TNF-α induced NF-κB activation, thereby inducing tumor cell apoptosis.

Properties of the Root Locus
To determine if a point lies on the root locus, the criterion involves the sum of angles contributed by all poles and zeros to that point. Specifically, this sum must be an odd multiple of 180 degrees. The gain at any point on...

Construction of Root Locus
For positive gain values, the root locus exists on the real axis to the left of an odd number of finite open-loop poles or zeros. The root locus starts at the open-loop poles and traces the paths of the closed-loop poles as the gain...
