Estrogen activity of terpenoids from plants of the genus Ferula

  • Published:
Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

The relationship between chemical structure and estrogen activity of a series of terpenoid esters with aromatic and aliphatic acids was studied. The studied compounds were isolated from the underground and aerial organs of Ferula tenuisecta, F. akitschkensis, F. lapidosa, F. juniperina, F. ceratophylla, F. pallida, F. tschimganica, and F. prangifolia. The estrogen activity was determined in vivo tests at a dose of 1 mg/kg.
