Description
Geraniin is a tannin that has been found in P. urinaria and has diverse biological activities. It scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH; IC50s = 0.92 and 1.27 μM at pH 4.5 and 7.9, respectively), superoxide (IC50 = 2.65 μM), and hydroxyl radicals (IC50 = 1.44 μM) in cell-free assays. Geraniin inhibits herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and HSV-2 replication in plaque reduction assays (IC50s = 35 and 18.4 μM, respectively). It inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in vitro (IC50 = 13.22 μM) and reduces both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats when administered at a dose of 5 mg/kg. Geraniin (5, 10, and 20 μM) induces apoptosis and halts the cell cycle at the S phase in A549 lung cancer cells. It reduces tumor growth in an A549 mouse xenograft model when administered at doses of 10 and 20 mg/kg.
Uses
Geraniin protects PC12 cells against neuronal damage and may be used in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease/ Also is an ACE inhibitor which is useful for hypertension treatment.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 60976-49-0 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 6,0,9,7 and 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 4 and 9 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 60976-49:
(7*6)+(6*0)+(5*9)+(4*7)+(3*6)+(2*4)+(1*9)=150
150 % 10 = 0
So 60976-49-0 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

A new hydrolysable tannin, elaeocarpusin, isolated from the leaves of Elaeocarpus sylvestris var.Ellipticus, has been characterized on the basis of chemical, spectroscopic, and X-ray analyses to be a novel ellagitannin in which a unique acid ester group probably derived by a condensation of a hexahydroxydiphenoyl group and dehydroascorbic acid is attached to the 2,4-positions of 1-O-galloyl-3,6-(R)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-D-glucopyranose (corilagin).This structural feature suggest the possibility of the participation of dehydroascorbic acid as a co-enzyme in oxidative metabolism of the hexahydroxydiphenoyl group to the corresponding dehydro group.
