Author: Jana Öhlschlegelová Title: Alkaloids of family Amaryllidaceae: genus Hippeastrum Diploma thesis Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Department of Pharmaceutical Botany 2019, 74 p. Keywords: Hippeastrum, Amaryllidaceae, alkaloids, antiproliferative activity, Alzheimer's disease, cholinesterase inhibitors, galanthamine The aim of this diploma thesis was to unify current findings about alkaloids isolated from selected plants of the Hippeastrum genus in the Amaryllidaceae family. The fytochemical characteristics of the examined species was introduced, and a group of alkaloids which were isolated from these plant species was composed. Also, the biological activity was evaluated. Up to date, at least 13 plant species of the Hippeastrum genus were examined from the fytochemical perspective. Out of these species examined, 56 different alkaloids with defined structure were isolated. The isolated alkaloids are divided into several groups based on their structure. Namely, these are lycorine, homolycorine, crinine, galanthamine, narciclasine, tazettine, haemanthamine and montanine structural types. Also, alkaloids which differed structurally from these basic types were found in several plants studied. In the substances gained, the antiproliferative activity, inhibitory activity...
