Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Botany Candidate: Mgr. Kateřina Breiterová Supervisor: Assoc. prof. Ing. Lucie Cahlíková PhD. Title of Doctoral Thesis: Alkaloids of the Amaryllidaceae family as potential drugs in therapy of diseases of affluence Key words: alkaloids, Amaryllidaceae, analogues, AChE, BuChE, POP, GSK-3β, cell cycle progression, apoptosis Narcissus cv. Professor Einstein was chosen based on results of previous screening studies for detailed phytochemical work for the purpose of isolation of the widest range of AmA. From 34,3 kg of fresh bulbs was obtained 31,7 g of purified alkaloidal extract, which was processed using column chromatography with stepwise elution by light petrol, chloroform and ethanol in different ratios to almost 500 fractions. These fractions were fused into 27 subfractions, which were processed by preparative TLC, vacuum column chromatography and crystallization. Finally, 25 pure alkaloids were isolated. All compounds were identified by GC-MS, ESI-MS, NMR, optical rotation and literature. One compound was identified as a new unpublished alkaloid of lycorine structure type. All alkaloids isolated in sufficient amount were tested for their biological activities associated with Alzheimer's disease (inhibition of...
