  • new antitumor compounds from Carya cathayensis
    ChemInform, 2012
    Co-Authors: Wei Wu, Xiuli Bi, Kaiqing Zhang, Yuqing Zhao
    Abstract:

    The new lignan (I), and three new phenolics, carayensin-A (II), carayensin-B (III), and carayensin-C (IV) are isolated from the shells along with 13 known constituents.

  • new antitumor compounds from Carya cathayensis
    Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2012
    Co-Authors: Wei Wu, Xiuli Bi, Kaiqing Zhang, Yuqing Zhao
    Abstract:

    Abstract A new lignan (7R,8S,8′R)-4,4′,9-trihydroxy-7,9′-epoxy-8,8′-lignan, and three new phenolics, carayensin-A, carayensin-B, and carayensin-C, together with 13 known compounds were isolated from the shells of Carya cathayensis. Their chemical structures were established mainly by 1D and 2D NMR techniques and mass spectrometry. All the compounds were evaluated for cytotoxicity against several human tumor types including human colorectal cancer cell lines (HCT-116, HT-29), human lung cancer cell line (A549), and human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7). The compounds 1, 5, 6, and 16 are considered to be potential as antitumor agents, which could significantly inhibit the cancer cell growth in a dose-dependent manner.

  • the genomes of pecan and chinese hickory provide insights into Carya evolution and nut nutrition
    GigaScience, 2019

    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND: Pecan (Carya illinoinensis) and Chinese hickory (C. cathayensis) are important commercially cultivated nut trees in the genus Carya (Juglandaceae), with high nutritional value and substantial health benefits. RESULTS: We obtained >187.22 and 178.87 gigabases of sequence, and ∼288× and 248× genome coverage, to a pecan cultivar ("Pawnee") and a domesticated Chinese hickory landrace (ZAFU-1), respectively. The total assembly size is 651.31 megabases (Mb) for pecan and 706.43 Mb for Chinese hickory. Two genome duplication events before the divergence from walnut were found in these species. Gene family analysis highlighted key genes in biotic and abiotic tolerance, oil, polyphenols, essential amino acids, and B vitamins. Further analyses of reduced-coverage genome sequences of 16 Carya and 2 Juglans species provide additional phylogenetic perspective on crop wild relatives. CONCLUSIONS: Cooperative characterization of these valuable resources provides a window to their evolutionary development and a valuable foundation for future crop improvement.
