Abstract: In the current study, two new flavones, 41-O-geranyltricin (1) and 31-O-geranylpolloin (2), and a new 2-(2-phenylethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one derivative, 7-hydroxyl-6- methoxy-2-(2-phenylethyl)chromone (3), have been isolated from the stem barks of A. sinensis, together with 21 known compounds 4–24. The structures of new compounds 1–3 were determined through spectroscopic and MS analyses. Compounds 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8–10 exhibited inhibition (IC50 ¤ 12.51 µM) of superoxide anion generation by human neutrophils in response to formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine/cytochalasin B (fMLP/CB). Compounds 3, 6, 8, 10, and 19 inhibited fMLP/CB-induced elastase release with IC50 values ¤ 15.25 µM. This investigation reveals bioactive isolates (especially 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 19) could be further developed as potential candidates for the treatment or prevention of various inflammatory diseases.

(Thymelaeaceae) is an evergreen tree, distributed in southern China [1]. A. sinensis, locally called “Chen Xiang”, is used in China as a folk medicine for treatment of circulatory disorders, abdominal pain, vomiting, and dyspnea [1]. Its leaf has been commercially used as a functional tea with anti-diabetes activity [2]. Benzenoids [3–7], flavonoids [8–13], 2-(2-phenyl-ethyl)-4H-chromen-4-ones [4,10,14–19], steroids [19–22], sesquiterpenoids [21,23], triterpenoids [4], and their derivatives were isolated from this plant in previous studies.

Cox1 1 Menzies Health Institute Queensland, School of Medical Science, Griffith University, Southport, QLD, Australia, 2 Menzies Health Institute Queensland, School of Medicine, Griffith University, Southport, QLD, Australia Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic upper respiratory disease estimated to affect between 10 and 40% of the worldwide population. The mechanisms underlying AR are highly complex and involve multiple immune cells, mediators, and cytokines. As such, the development of a single drug to treat allergic inflammation and/or symptoms is confounded by the complexity of the disease pathophysiology. Complete avoidance of allergens that trigger AR symptoms is not possible and without a cure, the available therapeutic options are typically focused on achieving symptomatic relief.

These include most antibiotics, analgesics, hormones, and other pharmaceuticals. Increasingly, attention has focused on larger and more complex protein molecules as therapeutic agents. This publication describes the types of biologics produced in plants and the plant based organic therapeutic agent's production systems in use. KeyWords: Antecedent, Antibiotics; Anticancer;Antiparasitic; Antileishmanial;Antifungal Analgesics; Flavonoids; Hormones; Pharmaceuticals. I. INTRODUCTION Naturally occurring pharmaceutical and chemical significance of these compounds offer interesting possibilities in exploring their more pharmacological and biocidal potentials. One of the main objectives of organic and medicinal chemistry is the design, synthesis and production of molecules having value as human therapeutic agents [1]. Flavonoids comprise a widespread group of more than 400 higher plant secondary metabolites. Flavonoids are structurally derived from parent substance flavone. Many flavonoids are easily recognized as water soluble flower pigments in most flowering plants. According to their color, Flavonoids pigments have been classified into two groups:(a) The red-blue anthocyanin's and the yellow anthoxanthins,(b)Aurones are a class of flavonoids called anthochlor pigments[2].

  • Cheminformatics Tools for Enabling Metabolomics by Yannick Djoumbou Feunang
    Cheminformatics Tools for Enabling Metabolomics by Yannick Djoumbou Feunang A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Microbiology and Biotechnology Department of Biological Sciences University of Alberta ©Yannick Djoumbou Feunang, 2017 ii Abstract Metabolites are small molecules (<1500 Da) that are used in or produced during chemical reactions in cells, tissues, or organs. Upon absorption or biosynthesis in humans (or other organisms), they can either be excreted back into the environment in their original form, or as a pool of degradation products. The outcome and effects of such interactions is function of many variables, including the structure of the starting metabolite, and the genetic disposition of the host organism. For this reasons, it is usually very difficult to identify the transformation products as well as their long-term effect in humans and the environment. This can be explained by many factors: (1) the relevant knowledge and data are for the most part unavailable in a publicly available electronic format; (2) when available, they are often represented using formats, vocabularies, or schemes that vary from one source (or repository) to another. Assuming these issues were solved, detecting patterns that link the metabolome to a specific phenotype (e.g. a disease state), would still require that the metabolites from a biological sample be identified and quantified, using metabolomic approaches. Unfortunately, the amount of compounds with publicly available experimental data (~20,000) is still very small, compared to the total number of expected compounds (up to a few million compounds). For all these reasons, the development of cheminformatics tools for data organization and mapping, as well as for the prediction of biotransformation and spectra, is more crucial than ever.

Herein, we investigated the expression pattern of a CCoAOMT orthologue from various tissues and organs during development, and in response to different environmental cues. The full-length CCoAOMT orthologue of kenaf consists of a 744 bp open reading frame (ORF), encoding for 247 amino acids of 27.91 kDa and an isoelectric point (pI) of 5.43. The deduced amino acids of CCoAOMT evidenced a high degree of identity (up to 84%) with other plant CCoAOMT sequences. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated its close relationship with the CCoAOMT of Gossypium hirsutum (ACQ59096).

Received: 4 September 2020; Accepted: 8 October 2020; Published: 12 October 2020 Abstract: Mediterranean plant Helichrysum italicum represents a rich source of versatile bioactive compounds with potential benefits for human health. Despite extensive research on the plant’s active constituents, little attention has yet been paid to characterizing the relationship between its intra-specific genetic diversity and metabolite profile. The study aimed to determine metabolic profile of H. italicum ssp. italicum (HII) and ssp. tyrrhenicum (HIT) cultivated on the experimental plantation in Slovenia and to compare the chemical composition of extracts regarding the solvent extraction process. Extracts were prepared upon conventional extract preparation procedures: maceration with 50 % methanol or ethanol and cold or hot water infusion and analyzed using High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Diode Array Detection-Electrospray Ionization-Quadrupole Time-of-Flight-Mass Spectrometry (HPLC-DAD-ESI-QTOF-MS).
