GHL has been used in folk remedies for various treatments and as favorable tea beverages. However, research on the precise analysis of ingredients in GHL extracts remains insufficient. In this study, compositional analysis has been conducted on polyphenolic ingredients in GHL hot water extracts. GHL samples collected from growing regions were incubated in hot water at 100 ◦C for 1 h. The polyphenolic constituents in the hot water extracts were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-HR MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) in negative ion mode. As a result, a total of seven compounds were identified as the major polyphenolic constituents. Interestingly, four constituents out of the identified substances were confirmed to be polyphenol glucuronide conjugates, in which glucuronidation was known to be an important metabolic process in polyphenol aglycone along with methylation and sulphation. This study can be applied for the quality control and standardization of GHL herbal samples and the monitoring of metabolic processes involved in the polyphenolic conjugates. Keywords: Glechoma hederacea; polyphenol glucuronide conjugate; tandem mass spectrometry 1. Introduction Herbal plants used as food ingredients and medical treatments have gained much attention because of their various profitable activities due to antioxidant phytochemicals such as flavonoids and other polyphenolic substances. Among such plants, Glechoma hederacea var. longituba (GHL) has been distributed worldwide from Northeast China [1], to the eastern and western coasts of the United States [2], and widespread throughout Europe and Asia [3]. GHL has been used in folk remedies for centuries to treat gallstones, cholecystitis, jaundice, urinary tract stones [4], and in various treatments for asthma, diabetes, bronchitis, colds and inflammation [5]. More recently, various studies have been published on GHL for antioxidants [6,7], anti-inflammatory agents [6,8], biliary excretion and cholelithiasis [9], antihypertensives [10], hypoglycemia [11], cancer cell suppression [12], and bone necrosis treatment [13]. Recently, as human lifespan and health interests have increased, functional bioactive substances for inhibiting aging and maintaining health have been extensively studied in various aspects [14,15].

  • Cytogeography of Glechoma Hederacea Subsp. Grandis (Labiatae) in Japan
    © 2010 The Japan Mendel Society Cytologia 75(3): 255–260, 2010 Cytogeography of Glechoma hederacea subsp. grandis (Labiatae) in Japan Norihito Miura and Yoshikane Iwatsubo* Graduate School of Science and Engineering, University of Toyama, Gofuku 3190, Toyama 930–8555, Japan Received February 26, 2010; accepted August 28, 2010 Summary In this study, we examined the chromosomal number for Glechoma hederacea subsp. grandis in a total of 1,030 specimens collected from different distribution areas in Japan. We found that G. hederacea subsp. grandis could be categorized into 3 cytotypes with 2nϭ36 (tetraploid), 2nϭ45 (pentaploid) and 2nϭ54 (hexaploid) chromosomes. Tetraploid plants were found throughout different areas in Japan; however, hexaploid plants were mainly distributed in central Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu. Likewise, pentaploid plant distribution was found to overlap with hexaploid plant distribution areas. The pentaploid plant group appeared only in regions common to both tetraploid and hexaploid plants. All 3 cytotypes were found to have karyotypes which could be represented by the following equations: A) 6Mϩ4mϩ18smϩ8st for tetraploids, B) 6Mϩ15mϩ19smϩ5st for pentaploids, and C) 6Mϩ26mϩ20smϩ2st for hexaploids. Pentaploid specimen karyotypes had half the tetraploid and half the hexaploid chromosomal set, indicating that this specimen was a hybrid between tetraploid and hexaploid plants. Key words Geographic distribution, Glechoma hederacea subsp. grandis, Hybrid, Karyotype, Polyploidy. Glechoma L. (Labiatae), distributed across north temperate zones in Eurasia, is a small genus with 4 to 8 species (Budantsev 2004). One of its species, G. hederacea L., has a wide distribution range occurring spontaneously throughout Eurasia.

Moorhead III Consulting Botanist Litchfield, Connecticut and Elizabeth J. Farnsworth Senior Research Ecologist New England Wild Flower Society Framingham, Massachusetts For: New England Wild Flower Society 180 Hemenway Road Framingham, MA 01701 508/877-7630 e-mail: [email protected] • website: www.newfs.org Approved, Regional Advisory Council, December 2003 1 SUMMARY Floerkea proserpinacoides Willdenow, false mermaid-weed, is an herbaceous annual and the only member of the Limnanthaceae in New England. The species has a disjunct but widespread range throughout North America, with eastern and western segregates separated by the Great Plains. In the east, it ranges from Nova Scotia south to Louisiana and west to Minnesota and Missouri. In the west, it ranges from British Columbia to California, east to Utah and Colorado. Although regarded as Globally Secure (G5), national ranks of N? in Canada and the United States indicate some uncertainly about its true conservation status in North America. It is listed as rare (S1 or S2) in 20% of the states and provinces in which it occurs. Floerkea is known from only 11 sites total in New England: three historic sites in Vermont (where it is ranked SH), one historic population in Massachusetts (where it is ranked SX), and four extant and three historic localities in Connecticut (where it is ranked S1, Endangered). The Flora Conservanda: New England ranks it as a Division 2 (Regionally Rare) taxon. Floerkea inhabits open or forested floodplains, riverside seeps, and limestone cliffs in New England, and more generally moist alluvial soils, mesic forests, springy woods, and streamside meadows throughout its range.

Twenty-four sources (mainly ethnographic) documenting the culinary use of wild plants were analysed. The use of 106 species (over 3% of the Slovak flora) has been recorded. Nowadays most of them are no longer used, or used rarely, apart from a few species of wild fruits. The most frequently used plants include the fruits of Rubus idaeus, Fragaria spp., Rubus subgenus Rubus, Vaccinium myrtillus, V. vitis-idaea, Fagus sylvatica, Corylus avellana, Prunus spinosa, Pyrus spp., Malus spp., Crataegus spp. and the leaves of Urtica dioica, Rumex acetosa, Chenopodiaceae species, Cardamine amara, Glechoma spp., Taraxacum spp. and Oxalis acetosella. The most commonly used wild food taxa are nearly identical to those used in Poland, and the same negative association of wild vegetables with famine exists in Slovakia, resulting in their near complete disappearance from the present-day diet. Keywords: historical ethnobotany, ethnobiology, wild green vegetables, wild food plants, wild edible plants Introduction of rural populations started at the end of the 19th century.

The essential oils of two Glechoma species from Serbia have been analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Eighty eight and two hundred thirty eight constituents identified accounted for 90.6 and 86.6% of the total oils of G. hirsuta Waldst. & Kit. and G. hederacea L., respectively. In both oils the dominant constituent class was the terpenoid one, 75.7% in G. hirsuta and 47.4% in G. hederacea . 1,8-Cineole (42.6%) and spathulenol (7.4%) were the main constituents of G. hirsuta oil while palmitic (13.3%) and linoleic acids (9.3%) alongside with germacrene D (7.3%) were the major ones of G. hederacea oil. The relative percentage of the sesquiterpene fraction (19.5%) and fatty acid derived compounds (7.6%) distinguished nicely G. hirsuta from G. hederacea . Additionally, oxygenated sesquiterpenes (16.9%) dominated the oil of G. hirsuta , while the reversed situation was noted for G. hederacea oil (the hydrocarbon sesquiterpenes amounted to only 2.6%). The results obtained provide a rationale for the parallel ethnopharmacological usage of G.
