Holoptelea integrifolia (Roxb.) Planch: A Review of Its Ethnobotany, Pharmacology, and Phytochemistry

Holoptelea integrifolia (Ulmaceae) is a versatile medicinal plant used in various indigenous systems of medicine for curing routine healthcare maladies. It is traditionally used in the treatment and prevention of several ailments like leprosy, inflammation, rickets, leucoderma, scabies, rheumatism, ringworm, eczema, malaria, intestinal cancer, and chronic wounds. In vitro and in vivo pharmacological investigations on crude extracts and isolated compounds showed antibacterial, antifungal, analgesic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anthelmintic, antidiabetic, antidiarrhoeal, adaptogenic, anticancer, wound healing, hepatoprotective, larvicidal, antiemetic, CNS depressant, and hypolipidemic activities. Phytochemical analysis showed the presence of terpenoids, sterols, saponins, tannins, proteins, carbohydrates, alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, glycosides, and quinines. Numerous compounds including Holoptelin-A, Holoptelin-B, friedlin, epifriedlin, 𝛽-amyrin, stigmasterol, 𝛽-sitosterol, 1, 4-napthalenedione, betulin, betulinic acid, hexacosanol, and octacosanol have been identified and isolated from the plant species. The results of several studies indicated that H. integrifolia may be used as an effective therapeutic remedy in the prevention and treatment of various ailments. However, further studies on chemical constituents and their mechanisms in exhibiting certain biological activities are needed. In addition, study on the toxicity of the crude extracts and the compounds isolated from this plant should be assessed to ensure their eligibility to be used as source of modern medicines.

Triterpenoids from the seedpods of Holarrhena curtisii King and Gamble

Phytochemistry Letters, 2015

Two new hydroperoxy pentacyclic triterpenoids, 3b-hydroxy-11a-hydroperoxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid (1) and 3b-hydroxy-11a-hydroperoxyursan-12-en-28-oic acid (2), together with nine known triterpenoids, squalene (3), b-amyrin acetate (4), a-amyrin acetate (5), lupeol acetate (6), lupeol (7), lanosta-7,24-dien-3b-ol (8), cycloeucalenol (9), oleanolic acid (11) and ursolic acid (12), a known phytosterol, 24-methylenepollinastanol (10), and two known flavanols, (-)-catechin (13) and (-)-gallocatechin (14), were isolated from the methanolic extract of the fresh seedpods of Holarrhena curtisii. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analysis (one and two dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance, high resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy). All compounds (except squalene) were evaluated for their in vitro a-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Compounds 1,2, 11 and 12, which had a pentacyclic triterpenoid acid skeleton, showed a strong in vitro a-glucosidase inhibitory activity compared to that of the standard control, acarbose.

HPTLC finger printing analysis of the alkaloids from Holoptelea integrifolia (Roxb.) Planch leaves

Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry, 2016

Objective: The present study was conducted to identify the Alkaloids from petroleum ether (PEHI) and methanol extracts (MHI) of medicinally and economically useful leaves of Holoptelea integrifolia (Roxb.) Planch using High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) technique. Methods: Preliminary phytochemical screening was done and HPTLC studies were carried out. CAMAG HPTLC system equipped with Linomat V applicator (Switzerland).

Chem Biodivers, 2006

Two new dammarane-type triterpenes, ailexcelone and ailexcelol, together with ocotillone, malabaricol, epoxymalabaricol, lupeol, and sitosterol-3-O-b-d-glucoside were isolated from the heartwood of Ailanthus excelsa. The structures of the new compounds were established on the basis of 1D-and 2D-NMR data. Ocotillone, malabaricol and epoxymalabaricol were isolated for the first time from A. excelsa. All of the isolates were tested for their antifungal activity.

Evaluation of Antioxidant Activity of Leaf Extracts of Holoptelea Integrifolia (Roxb) Planch

International Journal of Applied Pharmaceutics, 2014

Holoptelea integrifolia (Roxb.) Planch has been used from long time in traditional medicine. The main objective of the work was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of leaves of Holoptelea integrifolia (Roxb.) Planch. The antioxidant activity of petroleum ether and methanolic extract of Holoptelea integrifolia (HI) leaves was evaluated using Hydroxyl Radical Scavenging Activity and Total Reduction Capability models. Preliminary Phytochemical investigation of the petroleum ether extract (PEHI) of Holoptelea integrifolia leaves reveals the presence of steroids, terpenoids, alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, proteins, tannins, and carbohydrate while methanolic extract (MHI) of Holoptelea integrifolia showed the presence of steroids, alkaloids, flavonoids, proteins and carbohydrates. In case of Hydroxyl Radical Scavenging Activity both the HI extracts showed dose dependant increase in percent inhibition i. e. hydroxyl radical scavenging activity and thereby showed antioxidant activity h...
