Some of them such as retroviral integrases are crucial for pathogenous processes and are therefore good candidates for therapeutic approaches. To identify new therapeutic compounds and new tools for investigating the common functional features of these proteins, we addressed the inhibition properties of natural stilbenoids deriving from resveratrol on two models: the HIV-1 integrase and the eukaryote MOS-1 transposase. Two resveratrol dimers, leachianol F and G, were isolated for the first time in Vitis along with fourteen known stilbenoids: E-resveratrol, E-piceid, E-pterostilbene, E-piceatannol, (+)-E-e- viniferin, E-e-viniferinglucoside, E-scirpusin A, quadragularin A, ampelopsin A, pallidol, E-miyabenol C, E-vitisin B, hopeaphenol, and isohopeaphenol and were purified from stalks of Vitis vinifera (Vitaceae), and moracin M from stem bark of Milliciaexelsa (Moraceae).

  • Synthesis, Kinetics and Mechanisms of Designer and Natural Product Antioxidants: from Solution to Cells
    Synthesis, Kinetics and Mechanisms of Designer and Natural Product Antioxidants: From Solution to Cells By Bo Li Thesis submitted to the Department of Chemistry and Biomolecular Sciences in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of Ottawa Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (March 2016) © Bo Li, Ottawa, Canada, 2016 Abstract Lipid peroxidation has been implicated in the onset and progression of many degenerative diseases, including cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s disease and cancer. Accordingly, for more than 50 years, considerable effort has been devoted to the design of synthetic compounds or the discovery of natural products that can slow lipid peroxidation. Despite the enormous investments made to date, no clear antioxidant strategies have emerged for the treatment and/or prevention of degenerative disease. We argue that this is because of a lack of fundamental understanding of the chemical reactivity of these compounds in relevant contexts. Herein, we describe studies of our optimized synthetic radical-trapping antioxidant (RTA) – the tetrahydronaphthyridinols (THNs). We first present the synthesis of a series of THN analogs of α-tocopherol (Nature’s premier lipid-soluble radical-trapping antioxidant) with varying sidechain substitution and then demonstrate how systematic changes in the lipophilicity of these potent antioxidants impact their peroxyl radical-trapping activities in lipid bilayers and mammalian cell culture. Their regenerability by water-soluble reductants in lipid bilayers, binding to human tocopherol transport protein (hTTP), and cytotoxicity were also evaluated to provide insight on whether this type of antioxidant can be potentially pushed toward animal studies. We also describe analogous studies of natural products such as the garlic-derived thiosulfinate allicin and the grape-derived polyphenol resveratrol.

During the last decade, a significant amount of these compounds has been reported in the vegetative organs of the vine plant. In the roots, woods, canes, stems, and leaves, at least 183 phenolic compounds have been identified, including 78 stilbenes (23 monomers, 30 dimers, 8 trimers, 16 tetramers, and 1 hexamer), 15 hydroxycinnamic acids, 9 hydroxybenzoic acids, 17 flavan-3-ols (of which 9 are proanthocyanidins), 14 anthocyanins, 8 flavanones, 35 flavonols, 2 flavones, and 5 coumarins. There is great variability in the distribution of these chemicals along the vine plant, with leaves and stems/canes having flavonols (83.43% of total phenolic levels) and flavan-3-ols (61.63%) as their main compounds, respectively. In light of the pattern described from the same organs, quercetin-3-O-glucuronide, quercetin-3-O-galactoside, quercetin-3-O-glucoside, and caftaric acid are the main flavonols and hydroxycinnamic acids in the leaves; the most commonly represented flavan-3-ols and flavonols in the stems and canes are catechin, epicatechin, procyanidin B1, and quercetin-3-O-galactoside.

  • Resistance to Plasmopara Viticola in a Grapevine Segregating Population
    Malacarne et al. BMC Plant Biology 2011, 11:114 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2229/11/114 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Resistance to Plasmopara viticola in a grapevine segregating population is associated with stilbenoid accumulation and with specific host transcriptional responses Giulia Malacarne1*, Urska Vrhovsek1, Luca Zulini1, Alessandro Cestaro1, Marco Stefanini1, Fulvio Mattivi1, Massimo Delledonne2, Riccardo Velasco1 and Claudio Moser1 Abstract Background: Downy mildew, caused by the oomycete Plasmopara viticola, is a serious disease in Vitis vinifera, the most commonly cultivated grapevine species. Several wild Vitis species have instead been found to be resistant to this pathogen and have been used as a source to introgress resistance into a V. vinifera background. Stilbenoids represent the major phytoalexins in grapevine, and their toxicity is closely related to the specific compound. The aim of this study was to assess the resistance response to P. viticola of the Merzling × Teroldego cross by profiling the stilbenoid content of the leaves of an entire population and the transcriptome of resistant and susceptible individuals following infection. Results: A three-year analysis of the population’s response to artificial inoculation showed that individuals were distributed in nine classes ranging from total resistance to total susceptibility. In addition, quantitative metabolite profiling of stilbenoids in the population, carried out using HPLC-DAD-MS, identified three distinct groups differing according to the concentrations present and the complexity of their profiles. The high producers were characterized by the presence of trans-resveratrol, trans-piceid, trans-pterostilbene and up to thirteen different viniferins, nine of them new in grapevine. Accumulation of these compounds is consistent with a resistant phenotype and suggests that they may contribute to the resistance response.

Received: 17 July 2013; in revised form: 11 September 2013 / Accepted: 12 September 2013 / Published: 27 September 2013 Abstract: Grape is qualitatively and quantitatively very rich in polyphenols. In particular, anthocyanins, flavonols and stilbene derivatives play very important roles in plant metabolism, thanks to their peculiar characteristics. Anthocyanins are responsible for the color of red grapes and wines and confer organoleptic characteristics on the wine. They are used for chemotaxonomic studies and to evaluate the polyphenolic ripening stage of grape. They are natural colorants, have antioxidant, antimicrobial and anticarcinogenic activity, exert protective effects on the human cardiovascular system, and are used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Stilbenes are vine phytoalexins present in grape berries and associated with the beneficial effects of drinking wine.

In recent years, resvera- trol derivatives (including its oligomers) have shown amazing chemical diversity and biological activities. They have been emerging to be promising new sources of natural antioxidant. This review summarizes recent finding on antioxidant activities of resveratrol deriva- tives and the structure-activity relationship for the first time. Scientific evidences have highlighted their potential as therapeutic agents for cerebral and cardiovascular diseases. In our opinion, more effort should be devoted to the synthesis of resveratrol oligomers. Based on the structure-activity relationship, screening for resveratrol derivatives with higher antioxidant activity than trans-resveratrol is war- ranted, and these molecules may have greater therapeutic potential in future investigations.

  • Grapevine (Vitis Spp.) Rootstock Stilbenoid Associations with Host Resistance to and Induction by Root Knot Nematodes, Meloidogyne Incognita Christopher M
    Wallis BMC Res Notes (2020) 13:360 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13104-020-05201-3 BMC Research Notes RESEARCH NOTE Open Access Grapevine (Vitis spp.) rootstock stilbenoid associations with host resistance to and induction by root knot nematodes, Meloidogyne incognita Christopher M. Wallis* Abstract Objective: The root knot nematodes (RKN) Meloidogyne incognita can severely reduce grapevine yields over time. Grapevine rootstocks have been developed from wild Vitis species that provide resistance to nematode infections. However, the potential biochemical or mechanical mechanisms of resistance have not been thoroughly explored. Therefore, this study measured levels of stilbenoids in roots of non-infected and RKN-infected grapevines with Cabernet Sauvignon scion grafted to susceptible (O39-16) or resistant (Freedom) rootstocks. This was part of a larger efort to assess phenolic compound levels within grapevine rootstocks to determine roles of stilbenoid compounds in improving nematode resistance and overall plant health. Results: None of the assessed compounds were consistently greater in RKN infected plants versus healthy controls. Stilbenoids putatively identifed as pallidol, ɑ-viniferin, miyabenol C, and hopeaphenol were overall much greater in Freedom than O39-16 rootstocks. By contrast, the stilbenoids ampelopsin A, ω-viniferin, and vitisin B were greater in O39-16 than Freedom. O39-16 and Freedom had similar levels of other stilbenoids especially monomers and dimers. Potentially the greater levels of specifc stilbenoids present in Freedom
