Analysis of root extracts from " Duroia hirsuta " have yielded a strong plant growth inhibitor plumericin, a tetracyclic iridoid lactone, and duroin, another iridoid lactone.

The most common causes of drug induced acute confusion are dopaminergic drugs ( used for the treatment of Parkinson's disease ), diuretics, tricyclic or tetracyclic antidepressants and benzodiazepines.
33.
Tetracyclic antidepressants mirtazapine and mianserin are also potent ? antagonists with mirtazapine being more selective for ? 2 subtype ( ~ 30-fold selective over ? 1 ) than mianserin ( ~ 17-fold ).
34.
The structure of the tetracyclic ring of cholesterol contributes to the fluidity of the cell membrane, as the molecule is in a " trans " conformation making all but the side chain of cholesterol rigid and planar.
35.
The main limitation of such approach, however, is the need to use constrained dienes, such as furan and cyclopentadiene . 6, 7-indolyne undergoes [ 4 + 2 ] cycloaddition with cyclopentadiene to afford complex tetracyclic product.
36.
These compounds exhibit potent antitumor activity by DNA alkylation, where the two proximal amino sugars, D-angolosamine and N, N-dimethyl-L-vancosamine, play a key role in sequence recognition in intercalation of the tetracyclic chromophore.
37.
Another common case is the "'tetracyclic "'flower, which contains only one whorl of stamens, and therefore only four whorls in total . "'Tricyclic "'flowers also occur, generally where there is a single undifferentiated perianth.
38.
"' ? 2-blockers "'have found medical uses in treating depression; the tetracyclic antidepressants mianserin and mirtazapine are "'? 2-blockers "', although their efficacy as antidepressants may come from their activity at other receptor sites.
39.
Spinosad is a mixture of chemical compounds in the spinosyn family that has a generalized structure consisting of a unique tetracyclic ring system attached to an amino sugar ( D-forosamine ) and a neutral sugar ( tri-" ? "-methyl-L-rhamnose ).
40.
"' Aptazapine "'( "'CGS-7525A "') is a tetracyclic antidepressant ( TeCA ) which was assayed in clinical trials for the treatment of H 1 receptor inverse agonist, while having no significant effects on the reuptake of serotonin or norepinephrine.
