  • Retention Indices for Frequently Reported Compounds of Plant Essential Oils
    Retention Indices for Frequently Reported Compounds of Plant Essential Oils V. I. Babushok,a) P. J. Linstrom, and I. G. Zenkevichb) National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899, USA (Received 1 August 2011; accepted 27 September 2011; published online 29 November 2011) Gas chromatographic retention indices were evaluated for 505 frequently reported plant essential oil components using a large retention index database. Retention data are presented for three types of commonly used stationary phases: dimethyl silicone (nonpolar), dimethyl sili- cone with 5% phenyl groups (slightly polar), and polyethylene glycol (polar) stationary phases. The evaluations are based on the treatment of multiple measurements with the number of data records ranging from about 5 to 800 per compound. Data analysis was limited to temperature programmed conditions. The data reported include the average and median values of retention index with standard deviations and confidence intervals.

Odor impact of volatiles emitted from marijuana, cocaine, heroin and their surrogate scents Abstract Volatile compounds emitted into headspace from illicit street drugs have been identified, but until now odor impact of these compounds have not been reported. Data in support of identification of these compounds and their odor impact to human nose are presented. In addition, data is reported on odor detection thresholds for canines highlighting differences with human ODTs and needs to address gaps in knowledge. New data presented here include: (1) compound identification, (2) gas chromatography (GC) column retention times, (3) mass spectral data, (4) odor descriptors from 2 databases, (5) human odor detection thresholds from 2 databases, (6) calculated odor activity values, and (7) subsequent ranking of compounds by concentration and ranking of compounds by odor impact (reported as calculated odor activity values).

Current study involves the screening and identification of potent inhibitors of the pneumococcal virulence factor pneumolysin. About 100 flavonoids were chosen from scientific literature and docked with pnuemolysin (PDB Id.: 4QQA) using Patch Dockprogram for molecular docking. The results obtained were analysed and the docked structures visualized using LigPlus software. It was found that flavonoids amurensin, diosmin, robinin, rutin, sophoroflavonoloside, spiraeoside and icariin had hydrogen bond interactions with the receptor protein pneumolysin (4QQA). Among others, robinin had the highest score (7710) revealing that it had the best geometrical fit to the receptor molecule forming 12 hydrogen bonds ranging from 0.8-3.3 Å. Keywords : Pneumococci, pneumolysin, flavonoids, antimicrobial, virtual screening _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Streptococcus pneumoniae is a gram positive pathogenic bacterium causing opportunistic infections that may be life-threating[1]. Pneumococcus is the causative agent of pneumonia and is the most common agent causing meningitis.

    DELTA-CADINENE SYNTHASE FROM HYPER­ SENSffiVELY RESPONDING COTTON COTYLEDONS: IDENTIFICATION OF SUBSTRATE AND PRODUCT AND PARTIAL PURIFICATION OF THEENZYME By GORDON DALE DA VIS II Bachelor of Science Oklahoma Christian College Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 1978 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahpma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY July, 1993 OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY DELTA-CADINENE SYNTHASE FROM HYPER­ SENSITIVELY RESPONDING COTTON COTYLEDONS: IDENfIFICATION OF SUBSTRATE AND PRODUCT AND PARTIAL PURIFICATION OF THE ENZYME Thesis Approved: ll PREFACE The general subject of this thesis was an investigation into the early portion of the metabolic pathway responsible for the biosynthesis of sesquiterpenoid phytoalexins in cotton tissues inoculated with Xanthomonas campestris pv. malvacearum, the causative agent of bacterial blight of cotton. The purpose of the work was to specifically elucidate the enzymology of the first step of the metabolic pathway responsible for the production of the sesquiterpenoid phytoalexins. Charaeterization of this part of the pathway might be very important as it could be the first committed step in the biosynthesis of the phytoalexins. Study of this enzymatic step could yield basic scientific information concerning regulation of biosynthesis of the phytoalexins; this knowledge may have practical importance if the pathway (or portions of it) are used to create transformed plants. The major accomplishments described in this thesis include: 1) determination that tritium­ labelled farnesyl pyrophosphate is an appropriat~ substrate for assay of cyclase enzyme activity, 2) identification of B-cadinene as the most prominent product of induced cyclase activity in bacterially-inoculated cotton tissues and in cell-free reactions catalyzed by homogenates of these cotton tissues, and 3) initial purification from bacterially-inoculated tissues of the induced cyclase activity responsible for the conversion of famesyl pyrophosphate to 8-cadinene.

    Asian Journal of Medical Sciences 1 (2010) 20-25 ASIAN JOURNAL OF MEDICAL SCIENCES Hepato-protective Potential of Hull Fraction from Indian Flaxseed Cultivar J. Rajesha1*, A. Ranga Rao3, M. Karuna Kumar2 and G. A. Ravishankar3 1Department of Biochemistry, Yuvaraja’s College and 2Department of Studies in Biochemistry, University of Mysore, Mysore. 570005, India. 3Plant Cell Biotechnology Department, Central Food Technological Research Institute, Mysore 570020,India. Abstract Objective: Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG) isolated from hull fraction of Indian flaxseed cultivar was studied for its hepatoprotective potential by measuring the level of hepatic enzymes such as catalase, peroxidase and superoxide desmutase (SOD) upon feeding to albino rats. Material & Methods: The animals were grouped into five groups (n=5): The first group served as normal and received normal diet without treatment of toxin and hull fraction of flaxseed. The second group was named the control and received a regular commercial diet. The third, fourth and fifth groups were fed with normal diet and supplemented with hull fraction of flaxseed (150 and 250 μg/kg) and standard SDG (150 μg/kg), that was mixed with olive oil for 14 days. Results: Pretreatment of rats with 150 µg/kg b.w hull fraction of flaxseed followed by CCl4 treatment caused restoration of catalase, SOD and peroxidase by 37.70%, 108.22% and 23.89% respectively as compared to control. The group treated with 250 µg/kg b.w hull fraction of flaxseed showed the restoration of 67.30%, 152.82% and 39.88% of catalase, SOD and peroxidase, respectively. Conclusion: In conclusion, SDG fed in the form of flaxseed hull is responsible for its hepatoprotective properties.

Methods: Chemical components were first collected from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP). Pharmmapper database and GeneCards were used to predict the targets related to active components and COVID-19. Using DAVIDE and KOBAS 3.0 databases, Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) were enriched. A “components-targets-pathways” (C-T-P) network was conducted by Cytoscape 3.7.1 software. With the aid of Discovery Studio 2016 software, bio-active components were selected to dock with SARS-COV-2 3CL and ACE2.

It affects any joints in the body and degenerates the articular cartilage and the subchondral bone. Despite the pathophysiology of OA being different, cartilage resorption is still a symbol of osteoarthritis. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are important proteolytic enzymes that degrade extra-cellular matrix proteins (ECM) in the body. MMPs contribute to the turnover of cartilage and its break down; their levels have increased in the joint tissues of OA patients. Application of chondroprotective drugs neutralize the activities of MMPs. Natural products derived from herbs and plants developed as traditional medicine have been paid attention to, due to their potential biological effects. The therapeutic value of natural products in OA has increased in reputation due to their clinical impact and insignificant side effects. Several MMPs inhibitor have been used as therapeutic drugs, for a long time. Recently, different types of compounds were reviewed for their biological activities.
