Investigation of the aqueous alcoholic extract of Pyruscalleryana Decne. leaves led to the isolation of two new phenolic acids glycosides, namely protocatechuoylcalleryanin-3-O-β-glucopyranoside (1) and 3′-hydroxybenzyl-4-hydroxybenzoate-4′-O-β-glucopyranoside (2), together with nine known compounds among them lanceoloside A and methylgallate, which have been isolated for the first time from the genus Pyrus. Structures of the isolated compounds were established by spectroscopic analysis, including UV, IR, HRESI-MS, and 1D/2D NMR. The total extract and some isolated compounds were determined against DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl) hydrazinyl radical, for their free radical scavenging activity, the total alcoholic extract showed strong antioxidant activity while the two new compounds showed weak antioxidant activity.  相似文献

Three new polyketides, cyathuscavins A (1), B (2), and C (3) were isolated from the mycelium culture of Cyathus stercoreus. The structures of the compounds were elucidated on the basis of NMR and mass spectroscopic data. Antioxidant activities of the compounds were evaluated by the scavenging ability against ABTS+, DPPH, and superoxide anion radicals. Cyathuscavins A–C showed significant antioxidant activity comparable to those of reference antioxidants, BHA and Trolox. Cyathuscavins A–C protected supercoiled plasmid DNA from Fe2+/H2O2-induced breakage.  相似文献

A new acylated flavone glucoside, 3'-hydroxyscutellarein 7-O-(6'-O-protocatechuoyl)-beta-glucopyranoside (1), and a new phenol glucoside, 3,5-dihydroxyphenethyl alcohol 3-O-beta-glucopyranoside (6) were isolated from Veronica thymoides subsp. pseudocinerea together with seven known flavone, phenol and lignan glycosides; 3'-hydroxyscutellarein 7-O-(6'-O-trans-feruloyl)-beta-glucopyranoside (2), 3'-hydroxy, 6-O-methylscutellarein 7-O-beta-glucopyranoside (3), luteolin 7-O-beta-glucopyranoside (4), isoscutellarein 7-O-(6'-O-acetyl)-beta-allopyranosyl (1' --> 2')-beta-glucopyranoside (5), 3,4-dihydroxyphenethyl alcohol 8-O-beta-glucopyranoside (7), benzyl alcohol 7-O-beta-xylopyranosyl (1" --> 2')-beta-glucopyranoside (8), and (+)-syringaresinol 4'-O-beta-glucopyranoside (9). Compounds 2, 3 and 7-9 were reported for the first time in the genus Veronica. The structures of the isolates were determined by means of spectroscopic (UV, IR, 1D and 2D NMR, HR ESI-MS) methods. Isolated compounds (1-7) exhibited potent radical scavenging activity against the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical.  相似文献

Three Salvia species have been studied for antioxidant activity in methanol extracts from roots and leaves. The presence of the polyphenols and tanshinones was screened by HPLC and spectrophotometric assays and related to the antioxidant potential. The antioxidant capacity of the studied species is high, but differences between species and organs have been also revealed. Salvia przewalskii leaf extract was the strongest one in all tests, followed by Salvia miltiorrhiza root and Salvia verticillata leaf. Among the roots, the most active was S. miltiorrhiza extract, followed by S. verticillata. The antioxidant activity correlates to the total polyphenol and, depending on the assay, to the hydroxycinnamic acids content. The high content of tanshinones in both S. miltiorrhiza and S. przewalskii roots is unlikely to contribute to the antioxidant activity.  相似文献

The crude methanolic extracts of six species of Hypericum growing in southern Brazil (Hypericum caprifoliatum Cham. & Schlecht., H. carinatum Griseb., H. connatum Lam., H. myrianthum Cham. & Schlecht., H. polyanthemum Klotzsch ex Reichardt and H. ternum A. St. Hil.) were screened for their antiproliferative activity against two cell lines (HT-29 human colon carcinoma cells and H-460 non-small cell lung carcinoma). The most active crude extracts were those from H. caprifoliatum, H. myrianthum and, to a lesser extent, from H. connatum. All plants were submitted to fractionation with solvents in increasing polarity and re-assayed for the two cell lines used previously, as well as U-373 human malignant glioma cells. The most active fractions were the hexane fractions obtained from H. caprifoliatum, H. myrianthum and H. ternum.  相似文献

By bioactive-guided fractionation of methanol extract of the Ficus microcarpa leaves, one new C-glucosylflavone, ficuflavoside (1), one new megastigmane glycoside, ficumegasoside (8), and twelve known compounds including flavonoids (2-6), phenylpropanoids (7), megastigmanes (9-11) and sterol derivatives (12-14) were isolated. Their chemical structures were elucidated by mass, 1D, and 2D NMR spectroscopies. The antioxidant activities of these compounds were measured using the oxygen radical absorbance capacity methods. Compounds 1-6 exhibited potent antioxidant activities of 6.6-9.5 μM Trolox equivalents at the concentration of 2.0 μM. The results indicated 2, 3, and 5 having meaningful reducing capacity of copper (I) ions concentration of 6.1-8.4 μM.  相似文献

The whole plant aqueous extract of Coronopus didymus Linn. was fractionated on the basis of polarity and resulting fractions were evaluated for free radical scavenging ability. The most non-polar fraction (CDF1) was found to be more active than other fractions in scavenging DPPH, ABTS(-), nitric oxide and hydroxyl radicals in steady-state conditions. Stop-flow spectrometric studies showed 58.13% inhibition of 100 microM DPPH at a concentration of 150 microg/ml of CDF1 in 1000 s and 32.31% scavenging of 960 microM ABTS(-) at a concentration of 300 microg/ml of CDF1 in 100 s. The reaction of CDF1 with hydroxyl radicals produced by pulse radiolysis showed a transient spectrum with absorption peaks at 320, 390 and 400 nm, indicating the presence of flavonoids/related components. Competition kinetics with potassium thiocyanate against scavenging of hydroxyl radicals showed a reactivity of 0.1326 against thiocyanate. CDF1 also protected against Fenton reagent-induced calf thymus DNA damage at a concentration of 400 mg/ml indicating it to be the most potent fraction.  相似文献

The antioxidant activities of the flaxseed lignan secoisolariciresinol diglycoside (SDG) and its mammalian lignan metabolites, enterodiol (ED) and enterolactone (EL), were evaluated in both lipid and aqueous in vitro model systems. All three lignans significantly (p 0.05) inhibited the linoleic acid peroxidation at both 10 and 100 M over a 24-48 h of incubation at 40°C. In a deoxyribose assay, which evaluates the non site-specific and site-specific Fenton reactant-induced ·OH scavenging activity, SDG demonstrated the weakest activity compared to ED and EL at both 10 and 100 M; the greatest ·OH scavenging for ED and EL was observed at 100 M in both assays. The incubation of pBR322 plasmid DNA with Fenton reagents together with SDG, ED or EL showed that the inhibition of DNA scissions was concentration dependent. The greatest non site-specific activity of lignans was at 100 M, thus, confirming the results of the deoxyribose test. In contrast, the protective effect of SDG and EL in the site-specific assay was lost and that of ED was minimal. Therefore, the results indicate a structure-activity difference among the three lignans with respect to specific antioxidant efficacy. All three lignans did not exhibit reducing activity compared to ascorbic acid, therefore, did not possess indirect prooxidant activity related to potential changes in redox state of transition metals. The efficacy of SDG and particularly the mammalian lignans ED and EL to act as antioxidants in lipid and aqueous in vitro model systems, at relatively low concentrations (i.e. 100 M), potentially achievable in vivo, is an evidence of a potential anticarcinogenic mechanism of flaxseed lignan SDG and its mammalian metabolites ED and EL.  相似文献

Six phenolic compounds isolated from Curculigo orchioides, including 2,6-dimethoxy benzoic acid (1), curculigoside A (2), curculigoside B (3), curculigine A (4), curculigine D (5) and 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethoxy-7,9′:7′,9-diepoxylignan-4,4′-di-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (6), together with the ethanol extract of Curculigo orchioides were evaluated for their activity on osteoblasts in neonatal rat calvaria cultures and multinucleated osteoclasts derived from rat marrow cells so as to characterize the antiosteoporotic components of this plant and explore the relationship of chemical structure with antiosteoporotic activity. The proliferation of osteoblast was assayed by MTT methods. The activity of ALP (alkaline phosphatase) and TRAP (tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase) was measured by p-nitrophenyl sodium phosphate assay. The TRAP stain was used to identify osteoclast in morphology. The resorption pit area on the bone slices formed by osteoclast was measured by computer image processing. The ethanol extract exhibited stimulatory effect on both the osteoblast proliferation and the ALP activity. Six compounds all increased the osteoblast proliferation, and compounds (1), (2) and (4) also slightly increased the osteoblastic ALP activity. Compounds (1), (2), (3), (6) and the ethanol extract decreased area of bone resorption pit, osteoclastic formation and TRAP activity. These results indicated that phenolic compounds are antiosteoporotic chemical constituents from Curculigo orchioides, and their activities are related with chemical structures.  相似文献

The mutagenic potential of total oligomers flavonoids (TOF), ethyl acetate (EA) and petroleum ether (PE) extracts from aerial parts of Teucrium ramosissimum was assessed using Ames Salmonella tester strains TA98, TA100 and TA1535 with and without metabolic activation (S9). None of the different extracts produced a mutagenic effect. Likewise, the antimutagenicity of the same extracts was tested using the “Ames test”. Our results showed that T. ramosissimum extracts possess antimutagenic activity against all the tested genotoxicants (aflatoxin B1, benzo[a]pyrene, 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine and sodium azide) in the Salmonella assay systems used in this study. In addition, all extracts showed important free radical scavenging activity toward the radicals DPPH and ABTS except the PE extract.  相似文献

The effects of fluorinated analogues on the anaerobic transformation of phenol to benzoate were examined. At 250 M 2- or 3-fluorophenol, phenol transformation was delayed. 2-Fluorophenol had no apparent effect on subsequent degradation of benzoate, but benzoate accumulated in the presence of 250 M 3-fluorophenol. In contrast, 4-fluorophenol at 2 mM had no effect on either phenol transformation or benzoate degradation. Phenol and 2-, or 3-fluorophenol were transformed simultaneously, but phenol was transformed more rapidly than either fluorophenol. Thus, fluorinated analogues of phenol did not prevent anaerobic transformation of phenol to benzoate. 2-Fluorophenol was converted to 3-fluorobenzoate, and phenol enhanced the rate and extent of its transformation. 3-Fluorophenol was transformed to 2-fluorobenzoate to a limited extent (3%) when phenol was present. 4-Fluorophenol was not transformed regardless of the presence of phenol. 3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoate, a potential fluorinated intermediate product of para-carboxylation, was transformed rapidly to 2-fluorophenol and 3-fluorobenzoate, irrespective of the presence of phenol, indicating that both dehydroxylation and decarboxylation occurred. Initially, 2-fluorophenol and 3-fluorobenzoate were rapidly formed in an approximate molar ratio of 2 : 1. Once 3-fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoate was completely removed, the 2-fluorophenol, initially formed, was converted to 3-fluorobenzoate at a slower rate. Thus, phenol enhanced transformation of the fluorinated analogues, and the products of transformation suggested para-carboxylation. 3-Fluoro-2-hydroxybenzoate was not transformed in either the presence or absence of phenol, indicating that ortho-carboxylation did not occur.Abbreviations 3F4HB 3-fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoate - 3F2HB 3-fluoro-2-hydroxybenzoate (3-fluorosalicylate) Contribution No. 692, Environmental Research Laboratory, U.S. EPA, Gulf Breeze, FL. 32561, USA  相似文献

The present study concerns the genotoxicity of olive mill waste water (OMWW) generated in mills producing olive oil in Morocco. The Vicia faba micronucleus test was used to evaluate the genotoxicity of OMWW and the six major phenolic compounds identified by HPLC in this effluent. Five dilutions of OMWW were tested: 0.1, 1, 5, 10 and 20%. Maleic hydrazide was used as a positive control. The results showed that OMWW was genotoxic at 10% dilution. In order to investigate the components involved in this genotoxicity, the six major phenols present in this effluent, oleuropein, gallic acid, 4-hydroxyphenyl acetic acid, caffeic acid, paracoumaric acid and veratric acid, were studied at concentrations corresponding to the genotoxic concentration of the OMWW itself. Two phenols, gallic acid and oleuropein induced a significant increase in micronucleus frequency in Vicia faba; the four other phenols had no significant genotoxic effect. These results suggest that under the experimental conditions of our assay, OMWW genotoxicity was associated with gallic acid and oleuropein.  相似文献

Coronatine (COR) is a chlorosis-inducing phytotoxin that mimics some biological activities of methyl jasmonate. This study investigated whether COR confers salinity tolerance to cotton and whether such tolerance is correlated with changes in the activity of antioxidant enzymes. COR at 0.01muM was applied hydroponically to cotton seedlings at the two-leaf stage for 24h. A salinity stress of 150mM NaCl was imposed after completion of COR treatment for 15d. Salinity stress reduced biomass of seedlings and increased leaf superoxide radicals, hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxidation, and electrolyte leakage. Activities of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and glutathione reductase (GR), and of the stable free radical, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), scavenging activity were altered by salinity to varying degrees. Pretreatment with COR increased the activities of CAT, POD, GR, and DPPH scavenging activity in leaf tissues of salinity-stressed seedlings. Thus, COR might reduce the production of reactive oxygen species by activating antioxidant enzymes and DPPH-radical scavenging, thereby preventing membrane peroxidation and denaturation of bio-molecules.  相似文献

Platycodon grandiflorum A. DC (Campanulaceae) is used as a traditional oriental medicine and also as a food in Korea. Here we investigated its antioxidant activity, and isolated and identified its active compounds. Petroleum ether extracts from the whole root of P. grandiflorum were fractionated by silica gel column chromatography using a solvent gradient (petroleum ether:diethyl ether, v/v; 9:1-5:5). The 8:2 fraction showed a higher radical scavenging activity than the other fractions, and active compounds were purified from this fraction by reversed-phased HPLC. Two active compounds were identified as coniferyl alcohol esters of palmitic and oleic acids by FAB-MS, UV, IR and NMR spectroscopy. The antioxidant activities of these two compounds, which were evaluated by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), superoxide and nitric oxide radical scavenging capacity, were found to be as high as those of BHT or BHA.  相似文献

The work was conducted with the purpose to evaluate antioxidant activity of Parmelia saxatilis (PS) by different analytical methods. Water and methanol were used as solvents and antioxidative effects were measured by a ferric thiocyanate method (FTC) and thiobarbituric acid test (TBA). The antioxidant activity increased with the increasing amount of extracts (from 50 to 250 μg) added to linoleic acid emulsion. The methanol extract of PS exhibited high antioxidative activity that was not significantly (P < 0.05) different from α-tocopherol, while aqueous extracts of PS showed low antioxidative activity. Similar trends of antioxidant activity were observed using either the FTC or TBA methods. Antioxidant activity, reducing power, free radical scavenging (DPPH·), superoxide anion radical scavenging, metal chelating and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activities of PS extracts showed dose dependence and increased with concentration of PS extract. The results obtained in the present study indicate that the PS might be a potential source of natural antioxidant.  相似文献

Alcoholic extract of the marine algae Chlorella vulgaris was examined for its free radical scavenging effect with reference to naphthalene-induced lipid peroxidation in serum, liver, and kidney of rats. Initially, upon naphthalene intoxication (435 mg/kg body weight, intraperitoneally), the lipid peroxidation activity increased significantly (P < 0.001), and in contrast, the enzymic antioxidants (superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase) and non-enzymic antioxidants (glutathione, ascorbic acid, and α-tocopherol) levels decreased remarkably. When the naphthalene stressed rats were treated with Chlorella vulgaris extract (70 mg/kg body weight, orally), the lipid peroxidation activity reduced significantly (P < 0.001) and the activities of both the enzymic and non-enzymic antioxidants increased reaching near control values. The minimum concentration (70 mg/l) of the extract that exhibited maximum (85%) free radical scavenging activity was chosen for the experimental study. The present results suggest that Chlorella vulgaris extract exerts its chemo-preventive effect by modulating the antioxidants status and lipid peroxidation during naphthalene intoxication.  相似文献

In plants, PPO has been related to defense mechanism against pathogens and insects and this role was investigated in coffee trees regarding resistance against a leaf miner and coffee leaf rust disease. PPO activity was evaluated in different genotypes and in relation to methyl-jasmonate (Meja) treatment and mechanical damage. Evaluations were also performed using compatible and incompatible interactions of coffee with the fungus Hemileia vastatrix (causal agent of the leaf orange rust disease) and the insect Leucoptera coffeella (coffee leaf miner). The constitutive level of PPO activity observed for the 15 genotypes ranged from 3.8 to 88 units of activity/mg protein. However, no direct relationship was found with resistance of coffee to the fungus or insect. Chlorogenic acid (5-caffeoylquinic acid), the best substrate for coffee leaf PPO, was not related to resistance, suggesting that oxidation of other phenolics by PPO might play a role, as indicated by HPLC profiles. Mechanical damage, Meja treatment, H. vastatrix fungus inoculation and L. coffeella infestation caused different responses in PPO activity. These results suggest that coffee resistance may be related to the oxidative potential of the tissue regarding the phenolic composition rather than simply to a higher PPO activity.  相似文献
