(Tech.) Jinze Dou, Ph.D. Kavindra Kesari This study aimed to clarify the feasibility of utilizing spruce inner bark extract as a sun protection agent in sunscreens. Ultrasound-assisted extraction with 60 v-% ethanol was applied to isolate the extract in 25-30 % yield, that was almost independent of the temperature (45-75oC) and time (5-60 min) of the treatment. However, the yield of stilbene glucosides, measured by UV absorption spectroscopy, was highest after ca. 20 min extraction. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the extract showed that it consisted mainly of three stilbene glucosides, astringin, isorhapontin and polydatin (piceid). The maximum overall yield of the stilbene glucosides was > 20 %. Extraction with water gave a much lower yield of the stilbene glucosides. Sunscreens composed of a mixture of vegetable oils, surfactants (fatty acids), glycerin, water and the bark extract were prepared with the low-energy emulsification method.

Among stilbenes, the phytoalexin resveratrol (3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene; Figure 2.1) has attracted immense attention from biologists and chemists due to its numerous biological properties. Resveratrol is a pivotal molecule in plant biology and plays an important role as the parent molecule of oligo­ mers known as the viniferins [1]. It is also found in nature as closely related analogs, derivatives, and conjugates (Table 2.1) [1-80]. In addition, the inherent structural simplicity of the resveratrol molecule allows for the rational design of new chemotherapeutic agents, and hence a number of its synthetic adducts, analogs, derivatives, and conjugates have been reported (Table 2.1) [1-80]. 17 18 Resveratrol in Health and Disease Trans-resveratrol (frans-3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene) C/s-resveratrol (c/s-3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene) FIGURE 2.1 Chemical structures of trans- and r/.v-resveratrol (3.4'. .5-trihydrox- vstilbene).

In order to improve the recovery of these molecules, an optimization of the extraction was performed using water. Several extraction parameters were tested and extracts obtained analyzed both in terms of relative amounts of different phytochemical families and of individual molecules concentrations. As a result, low temperature (80 ◦C) and low ratio of bark/water (50 mg/mL) were determined to be the best parameters for an efficient polyphenol extraction and that especially for low molecular mass polyphenols. These were identified as stilbene monomers and derivatives, mainly stilbene glucoside isorhapontin (up to 12.0% of the dry extract), astringin (up to 4.6%), resveratrol (up to 0.3%), isorhapontigenin (up to 3.7%) and resveratrol glucoside piceid (up to 3.1%) which is here reported for the first time for Picea mariana. New stilbene derivatives, piceasides O and P were also characterized herein as new isorhapontin dimers.

    Plant Archives Vol. 20 Supplement 1, 2020 pp. 2929-2934 e-ISSN:2581-6063 (online), ISSN:0972-5210 STILBENOIDS - ASTRINGIN AND ASTRINGININ OF SAPERAVI GRAPE VARIETY (VITIS VINIFERA L.) AND WINE M. Bezhuashvili* and M. Surguladze Viticulture and Oenology Institute, Georgian Agrarian University, Tbilisi 0159, Kakha Bendukidze University Campus, David Aghmashenebeli Alley 240, Georgia. Abstract It was identified and determined the stilbenoids – trans-astringinin (piceatannol) and its glucoside trans- astringin in the Saperavi grape variety and dry wine. The study shows that the grape juice is reach with trans-astringin and from the solid parts of grapes (skins, seeds and stems) - grape skin. Trans-astringin and trans-astringinin found in the Saperavi grapes and wine approved their biological activity: they possess the antiradical activity manifested to inhibit the 2, 2-diphenyl-picryl- hydrazyl. From the studied stilbenoids -stilbene tetramers were the most active. Trans-astringin and other stilbenoids do not inhibit the activity of lactobacteria during the process of malolactic fermentation in Saperavi wine. The identification of trans- astringin and trans-astringinin is a novelty for the stilbene profile of Saperavi grapes and wine and important data for substantiating the functional (therapeutic-preventive) purpose of the Saperavi wine.

Since the last few decades, herbal drugs have regained their popularity in treatment against several human ailments. Herbals containing anti-infl ammatory activity (AIA) are topics of immense interest due to the absence of several problems in them, which are associated with synthetic preparations. The primary objective of this review is to provide a deep overview of the recently explored anti-infl ammatory agents belonging to various classes of phytoconstituents like alkaloids, glycosides, terpenoids, steroids, polyphenolic compounds, and also the compounds isolated from plants of marine origin, algae and fungi. Also, it enlists a distended view on potential interactions between herbals and synthetic preparations, related adverse effects and clinical trials done on herbals for exploring their AIA. The basic aim of this review is to give updated knowledge regarding plants which will be valuable for the scientists working in the fi eld of anti-infl ammatory natural chemistry.

  • Applications of Mass Spectrometry in Natural Product Drug Discovery for Malaria: Targeting Plasmodium Falciparum Thioredoxin Reductase
    Applications of mass spectrometry in natural product drug discovery for malaria: Targeting Plasmodium falciparum thioredoxin reductase by Ranjith K. Munigunti A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 5, 2013 Keywords: Chromatography, mass spectrometry, malaria, Plasmodium falciparum, thioredoxin reductase, thioredoxin Copyright 2013 by Ranjith K. Munigunti Approved by Angela I. Calderón, Chair, Assistant Professor of Pharmacal Sciences C. Randall Clark, Professor of Pharmacal Sciences Jack DeRuiter, Professor of Pharmacal Sciences Forrest Smith, Associate Professor of Pharmacal Sciences Orlando Acevedo, Associate Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry Abstract Malaria is considered to be the dominant cause of death in low income countries especially in Africa. Malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum is a most lethal form of the disease because of its rapid spread and the development of drug resistance. The main problem in the treatment of malaria is the emergence of drug resistant malaria parasites. Over the years/decades, natural products have been used for the treatment or prevention of number of diseases. They can serve as compounds of interest both in their natural form and as templates for synthetic modification. Nature has provided a wide variety of compounds that inspired the development of potential therapeutics such as quinine, artemisinin and lapachol as antimalarial agents. As the resistance to known antimalarials is increasing, there is a need to expand the antimalarial drug discovery efforts for new classes of molecules to combat malaria. This research work focuses on the applications of ultrafiltration, mass spectrometry and molecular modeling based approaches to identify inhibitors of Plasmodium falciparum thioredoxin reductase (PfTrxR), our main target and Plasmodium falciparum glutathione reductase (PfGR) as an alternative target for malaria drug discovery.

  • Oxyresveratrol의 기원, 생합성, 생물학적 활성 및 약물동력학
    KOREAN J. FOOD SCI. TECHNOL. Vol. 47, No. 5, pp. 545~555 (2015) http://dx.doi.org/10.9721/KJFST.2015.47.5.545 총설 ©The Korean Society of Food Science and Technology Oxyresveratrol의 기원, 생합성, 생물학적 활성 및 약물동력학 임영희·김기현 1·김정근 1,* 고려대학교 보건과학대학 바이오시스템의과학부, 1한국산업기술대학교 생명화학공학과 Source, Biosynthesis, Biological Activities and Pharmacokinetics of Oxyresveratrol 1 1, Young-Hee Lim, Ki-Hyun Kim , and Jeong-Keun Kim * School of Biosystem and Biomedical Science, Korea University 1Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, Korea Polytechnic University Abstract Oxyresveratrol (trans-2,3',4,5'-tetrahydroxystilbene) has been receiving increasing attention because of its astonishing biological activities, including antihyperlipidemic, neuroprotection, antidiabetic, anticancer, antiinflammation, immunomodulation, antiaging, and antioxidant activities. Oxyresveratrol is a stilbenoid, a type of natural phenol and a phytoalexin produced in the roots, stems, leaves, and fruits of several plants. It was first isolated from the heartwood of Artocarpus lakoocha, and has also been found in various plants, including Smilax china, Morus alba, Varatrum nigrum, Scirpus maritinus, and Maclura pomifera. Oxyresveratrol, an aglycone of mulberroside A, has been produced by microbial biotransformation or enzymatic hydrolysis of a glycosylated stilbene mulberroside A, which is one of the major compounds of the roots of M. alba. Oxyresveratrol shows less cytotoxicity, better antioxidant activity and polarity, and higher cell permeability and bioavailability than resveratrol (trans-3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene), a well-known antioxidant, suggesting that oxyresveratrol might be a potential candidate for use in health functional food and medicine. This review focuses on the plant sources, chemical characteristics, analysis, biosynthesis, and biological activities of oxyresveratrol as well as describes the perspectives on further exploration of oxyresveratrol.
