The aim of our study is to find functional compounds from natural resources. We focus on plants grown in tropical areas, especially Madagascar and Thailand, because they have unique flora and are expected to contain interesting compounds. We review the functional compounds of the seed kernels of Entada phaseoloides and E. rheedei and their biological activities such as anti-proliferation and melanogenesis inhibitory properties, etc.
我们研究的目的是从自然资源中寻找功能性化合物。我们专注于热带地区生长的植物,特别是马达加斯加和泰国的植物,因为它们拥有独特的植物群,并且有望含有有趣的化合物。我们综述了榼藤子和红榼藤种子仁中的功能性化合物及其生物活性,如抗增殖和抑制黑色素生成特性等。
