Actinidiaceae

Dimethylurea/citric acid is a highly efficient deep eutectic solvent (DES). Dimethylurea/citric acid can be used as a catalyst and a green reaction medium for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes, quinolines and aryl-4, 5-diphenyl-1H-imidazoles.

3-Hydroxy-2-pyrone (Compound 12d) is a metalloenzyme inhibitor. 3-Hydroxy-2-pyrone shows an inhibition rate of approximately 50% for matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and the inhibition rate for non-heme iron enzyme 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) was over 70% at 1 mM. 3-Hydroxy-2-pyrone also has certain inhibitory activity against copper-dependent enzyme tyrosinase. 3-Hydroxy-2-pyrone can be used for the research of cancer, infection and inflammation.

3-O-Coumaroylasiatic acid is a natural triterpene.

α-D-altro-3-Heptulofuranose is a nature product that could be isolated from the rhizomes of Actinidia kolomikta. α-D-altro-3-Heptulofuranose has anti-inflammatory activity.

Pygenic acid B is a triterpenoid that can be isolated from the leaves of Glochidion obliquum. Pygenic acid B shows antifungal activity against C. musae. Pygenic acid B shows ONOO- scavenging activity.

Actinoside E (Kaempferol 3-O-2,4'''-acetylrhamninoside) is a flavonoid triglycoside with antioxidant activity. Actinoside E scavenges DPPH, superoxide anion and hydroxyl radicals, and inhibits lipid peroxidation in mouse liver homogenate. Actinoside E can be used in studies related to myocardial ischemia.
