    Abstract

    A phenylpropanoid 1, a slovenolide 2, and two germacranes bearing a methylthiopropenoate moiety, 3 and 4, along with twenty known metabolites have been isolated from the roots of Thapsia villosa var. villosa L. The structures of two known phenylpropanoids 5 and 6 have been corrected. Compounds 7 and 8 showed activity as potential inhibitors of the sarco- and endoplasmic Ca 2+-dependent ATPases (SERCA) pump. Compounds 9, 10 and 11 increased significantly the cytoplasmic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+] in human platelets in a concentration-dependent manner.
