Verbascoside is a phenylethanoid glycoside that was first Keywords: isolated from mullein but is also found in several other plant species. It has also been produced by in vitro Acteoside plant culture systems, including genetically transformed roots (so-called ‘hairy roots’). Verbascoside is hydro- fl Anti-in ammatory philic in nature and possesses pharmacologically beneficial activities for human health, including antioxidant, (Bio)synthesis anti-inflammatory and antineoplastic properties in addition to numerous wound-healing and neuroprotective Cancer prevention Cell suspension culture properties.

Biophenols extraction with ethyl acetate was efficient and the phenolic extract from the mountainous areas had the highest concentration of total phenols’ content. Fourier-Transform-Middle Infrared (FT-MIR) spectroscopy of the extracts revealed vibration bands corresponding to acid, alcohol and ketone functions. Additionally, HPLC-ESI-MS analyses showed that phenolic alcohols, phenolic acids, flavonoids, secoiridoids and derivatives and lignans represent the most abundant phenolic compounds.

    nutrients Review Natural Sources, Pharmacokinetics, Biological Activities and Health Benefits of Hydroxycinnamic Acids and Their Metabolites Matej Sova 1,* and Luciano Saso 2 1 Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Ljubljana, Aškerˇceva7, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia 2 Department of Physiology and Pharmacology "Vittorio Erspamer", Sapienza University of Rome, Piazzale Aldo Moro 5, 00185 Rome, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: matej.sova@ffa.uni-lj.si; Tel.: +386-1-476-9556 Received: 24 June 2020; Accepted: 22 July 2020; Published: 23 July 2020 Abstract: Hydroxycinnamic acids (HCAs) are important natural phenolic compounds present in high concentrations in fruits, vegetables, cereals, coffee, tea and wine. Many health beneficial effects have been acknowledged in food products rich in HCAs; however, food processing, dietary intake, bioaccessibility and pharmacokinetics have a high impact on HCAs to reach the target tissue in order to exert their biological activities. In particular, metabolism is of high importance since HCAs’ metabolites could either lose the activity or be even more potent compared to the parent compounds. In this review, natural sources and pharmacokinetic properties of HCAs and their esters are presented and discussed. The main focus is on their metabolism along with biological activities and health benefits. Special emphasis is given on specific effects of HCAs’ metabolites in comparison with their parent compounds. Keywords: diet; natural compounds; phenolic acids; hydroxycinnamic acids; metabolites; pharmacokinetic properties; biological activities; health effects 1. Introduction Our diet rich in plant food contains several health-beneficial ingredients. Among such ingredients, polyphenols represent one of the most important natural compounds. Phenolic compounds are members of probably the largest group of plant secondary metabolites and have the main function to protect the plants against ultraviolet radiation or invasion by pathogens [1,2].

  • Flavonoids: an Overview
    Vidya V. Gawande et al. / Journal of Pharmacy Research 2012,5(11),5099-5101 Review Article Available online through ISSN: 0974-6943 http://jprsolutions.info Flavonoids: An Overview Vidya V. Gawande* and S. V. Kalikar Department of Pharmacy,Government Polytechnic, Gadgenagar, VMV Road, Amravati(MS), India 444603 Received on:14-07-2012; Revised on: 19-08-2012; Accepted on:23-09-2012 ABSTRACT Flavonoids belong to a group of polyphenolic compounds, which are classified as flavonols, flavonones, flavones, flavan-3-ols and isoflavones, anthocynidins according to the positions of the substitutes present on the parent molecule. Flavonoids occur as aglycones, glycosides and methylated derivatives in plants. Flavonoids occur naturally in fruit, vegetables, and beverages such as tea and wine and over 4000 structurally unique flavonoids have been identified in plant sources. These are primarily recognized as the pigments responsible for the many shades of yellow, orange, and red in flowers, fruits, and leaves. The major actions of flavonoids are those against cardiovascular diseases, ulcers, viruses, inflammation, osteoporosis, diarrhea and arthritis. Flavonoids have also been known to possess biochemical effects, which inhibit a number of enzymes such as aldosereductase, xanthine oxidase, phosphodiesterase, Ca+2-ATPase, lipoxygenase, cycloxygenase, etc. They also have a regulatory role on different hormones like estrogens, androgens and thyroid hormones. Flavonoids like quercetin are shown to produce anti-inflammatory effect. The flavonoids in tea are found to be responsible for the prevention of osteoporosis. Quercetin is now found to show inhibiting effects against herpes simplex virus. Antidiarrheal effect is found to be shown by the flavonoids present in cocoa.

ISBN 90-8504-349-2 Abstract During and after absorption in the intestine, quercetin is extensively metabolised by the phase II biotransformation system. Because the biological activity of flavonoids is dependent on the number and position of free hydroxyl groups, a first objective of this thesis was to investigate the consequences of phase II metabolism of quercetin for its biological activity. For this purpose, a set of analysis methods comprising HPLC-DAD, LC-MS and 1H NMR proved to be a useful tool in the identification of the phase II metabolite pattern of quercetin in various biological systems.

  • Wine and Grape Polyphenols — a Chemical Perspective
    Wine and grape polyphenols — A chemical perspective Jorge Garrido , Fernanda Borges abstract Phenolic compounds constitute a diverse group of secondary metabolites which are present in both grapes and wine. The phenolic content and composition of grape processed products (wine) are greatly influenced by the technological practice to which grapes are exposed. During the handling and maturation of the grapes several chemical changes may occur with the appearance of new compounds and/or disappearance of others, and con- sequent modification of the characteristic ratios of the total phenolic content as well as of their qualitative and quantitative profile. The non-volatile phenolic qualitative composition of grapes and wines, the biosynthetic relationships between these compounds, and the most relevant chemical changes occurring during processing and storage will be highlighted in this review. 1. Introduction Non-volatile phenolic compounds and derivatives are intrinsic com-ponents of grapes and related products, particularly wine. They constitute a heterogeneous family of chemical compounds with several compo-nents: phenolic acids, flavonoids, tannins, stilbenes, coumarins, lignans and phenylethanol analogs (Linskens & Jackson, 1988; Scalbert, 1993). Phenolic compounds play an important role on the sensorial characteris-tics of both grapes and wine because they are responsible for some of organoleptic properties: aroma, color, flavor, bitterness and astringency (Linskens & Jackson, 1988; Scalbert, 1993). The knowledge of the relationship between the quality of a particu-lar wine and its phenolic composition is, at present, one of the major challenges in Enology research. Anthocyanin fingerprints of varietal wines, for instance, have been proposed as an analytical tool for authen-ticity certification (Kennedy, 2008; Kontoudakis et al., 2011).

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.
