不同产地生漆中漆酚清除自由基及构效关系的初步研究

为更好地开发和利用生漆资源,探寻生漆中主要有效成分漆酚的抗氧化性能,为生漆的深加工提供理论依据和参数。分别应用丙酮提取中国和越南生漆,对得到的漆酚粗提物中的漆酚含量进行测定,建立了阳性对照组Vc和二丁基羟基甲苯(BHT)基础的DPPH、ABTS及O2-.法,对提取物抗氧化性能进行测试;在此基础上,结合紫外光谱分析了中国和越南生漆中漆酚含量及结构差异性,并初步分析其抗氧化的构效关系。结果显示,各地生漆中漆酚提取物具有强的抗氧化活性:中国毛坝生漆提取物抗氧化活性最强,其次是越南红漆和中国小木漆;紫外光谱分析亦表明毛坝生漆中含有丰富的不饱和键可能与其较强的抗氧化性相关。     

Novel urushiol derivatives as HDAC8 inhibitors: rational design,virtual screening,molecular docking and molecular dynamics studies

Three series of novel urushiol derivatives were designed by introducing a hydroxamic acid moiety into the tail of an alkyl side chain and substituents with differing electronic properties or steric bulk onto the benzene ring and alkyl side chain. The compounds’ binding affinity toward HDAC8 was screened by Glide docking. The highest-scoring compounds were processed further with molecular docking, MD simulations, and binding free energy studies to analyze the binding modes and mechanisms. Ten compounds had Glide scores of ?8.2 to ?10.2, which revealed that introducing hydroxy, carbonyl, amino, or methyl ether groups into the alkyl side chain or addition of –F, –Cl, sulfonamide, benzamido, amino, or hydroxy substituents on the benzene ring could significantly increase binding affinity. Molecular docking studies revealed that zinc ion coordination, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interactions contributed to the high calculated binding affinities of these compounds toward HDAC8. MD simulations and binding free energy studies showed that all complexes possessed good stability, as characterized by low RMSDs, low RMSFs of residues, moderate hydrogen bonding and zinc ion coordination and low values of binding free energies. Hie147, Tyr121, Phe175, Hip110, Phe119, Tyr273, Lys21, Gly118, Gln230, Leu122, Gly269, and Gly107 contributed favorably to the binding; and Van der Waals and electrostatic interactions provided major contributions to the stability of these complexes. These results show the potential of urushiol derivatives as HDAC8 binding lead compounds, which have great therapeutic potential in the treatment of various malignancies, neurological disorders, and human parasitic diseases.     

An urushiol derivative from poison sumac

GC analysis of the ethanolic extract of poison sumac (Toxicodendron vernix) showed five urushiol components four of which were identical with those     

Urushiols of poisonous anacardiaceae

GC-MS has been used to analyze and characterize the mixture of bis-trimethylsilyl derivatives of 3-n-alk(en)ylcatechols (urushiol) obtained from certain poisonous members of the Anacardiaceae. Analyses revealed a variation in composition of urushiol obtained from the same species. Furthermore, urushiols from poison ivy and poison wood, while consisting largely of n-C₁₅-substituted catechols, also contain varying amounts of the homologous n-C₁₇-substituted catechols. Similarly, the 3-alk(en)ylcatechol mixtures from poison oak, while containing mainly n-C₁₇-species, also contain varying amounts of the _n-C₁₅ species. The analysis of a single poison sumac sample revealed that it contained predominantly 3-_n-pentadec(en)ylcatechols.     

Antimicrobial activity of the synthesized non-allergenic urushiol derivatives

Synthesized urushiol derivatives possessing different carbon atomic length in the alkyl side chain inhibited the growth of food spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. Particularly, non-allergenic 3-pentylcatechol showed a broad antimicrobial spectrum on an agar plate. Most food spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms were sensitive to urushiol derivatives in the liquid culture. The morphologies of the microorganisms were changed after treatment of 3-pentylcatechol.     

漆树科植物漆酚的多样性及演化关系研究

漆酚是漆树科植物独有的化学成分,具有良好的抗氧化、抗肿瘤、抗病毒等生物活性,极具药物和工业生产开发价值。该研究通过对国内外有关漆树科各类群有关漆酚数据的搜集和整理,开展漆树科漆酚的多样性与分布情况的综合统计;同时在利用核基因ETS和叶绿体基因rps16和trnL-F重建漆树科系统发育树的基础上,探讨漆酚在漆树科及各属间的起源和演化关系。结果表明:(1)漆树科漆酚具有较高的多样性,在其苯环和-R链上都有很大的变异。(2)发现漆酚仅存在于Anacardioideae亚科中,是该亚科的一个重要界定特征。(3)基于漆酚苯环结构和-R链特征的祖先性状重建分析表明,漆树科的漆酚是由邻苯二酚向间苯二酚演化,而漆酚-R链的十五烃(烯)基则是向十七烃(烯)基平行演化。

Component analysis of the urushiol content of poison ivy and poison oak

The partial separation and quantitation of the components of the urushiol fraction of poison ivy and poison oak are discussed. The urushiol fraction of poison ivy is primarily composed of C₁₅ side-chain catechol, while the urushiol extract of poison oak is principally the C₁₇ homolog. The presence of a C₁₇ homolog in ivy and a C₁₅ homolog in poison oak urushiol is also detected. Each of these catechol derivatives contain a mixture of congeners which are partially separated by the GLC system used. In each case the tri-olefinic component occurs in greatest abundance and the mono-olefinic congener is least abundant; no saturated material was detected. The compounds were analyzed as trimethylsilyl derivatives and a qualitative analysis was accomplished by GC-MS.
