Crocetin, a unique carotenoid with a short carbon chain length, is an active compound of saffron and Gardenia jasminoides Ellis used as traditional herbal medicine. The present study was undertaken to investigate the pharmacokinetic profiles of crocetin in healthy adult subjects. The study was conducted as an open-label, single dose escalation with 10 Filipino volunteers (5 men and 5 women). The subjects received a single dose of crocetin at three doses (7.5, 15 and 22.5 mg) in one week interval. Blood samples were collected from the brachial vein before and at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 24 h after administration. Plasma concentrations of crocetin were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Crocetin was rapidly absorbed and detected within an hour of administration with a mean time to reach maximum concentration (Tmax) of crocetin ranging from 4.0 to 4.8 h. The mean values of Cmax and AUC0-24 h ranged from 100.9 to 279.7 ng/ml and 556.5 to 1720.8 ng.h/ml respectively. Cmax and AUC values increased with dose proportional manner. Crocetin was eliminated from human plasma with a mean elimination half life (T1/2) of 6.1 to 7.5 h.In summary, there were no serious adverse events up to 22.5 mg dose of crocetin while crocetin was found to be absorbed more quickly than the other carotenoids such as β-carotene, lutein and lycopene.  相似文献

Saffron, the desiccated stigmas of Crocussativus, is highly appreciated for its peculiar colour, flavour and aroma. Several studies have been conducted with the spice, but little is known about the evolution of volatile and non-volatile compounds generated during the development of the stigma. In this study, we have followed these compounds, with special attention to those of isoprenoid origin (carotenoids and monoterpenes), which are responsible for the organoleptic properties of saffron. The main compounds that accumulated throughout stigma development in C.sativus were crocetin, its glucoside derivatives and picrocrocin, all of which increased as stigmas reached a fully developed stage. The volatile composition of C.sativus stigmas changed notably as stigmas developed with each developmental stage being characterized by a different volatile combination. In red stigmas, β-cyclocitral, the 7,8 cleavage product of β-carotene, was highly produced, suggesting the implication of both β-carotene and zeaxanthin in crocetin formation. As stigmas matured, hydroxy-β-ionone and β-ionone were produced while safranal, the most typical aroma compound of the processed spice, was only detected at low levels. However, a safranal-related compound 2,2,2-trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione (4-oxoisophorone) increased rapidly at the anthesis stage and also in senescent stigmas. Monoterpenes were mainly emitted at the time of anthesis and the emission patterns followed the expression patterns of two putative terpene synthases CsTS1 and CsTS2. Fatty acid derivates, which predominated at the earlier developmental stages, were observed at low levels in later stages.  相似文献

Crocetin, the major carotenoid in saffron, exhibits potent anticancer effects. However, the antileukemic effects of crocetin are still unclear, especially in primary acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells. In the current study, the potential antipromyelocytic leukemia activity of crocetin and the underlying molecular mechanisms were investigated. Crocetin (100 µM), like standard anti-APL drugs, all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA, 10 µM) and As2O 3 (arsenic trioxide, 50 µM), significantly inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in primary APL cells, as well as NB4 and HL60 cells. The effect was associated with the decreased expressions of prosurvival genes Akt and BCL2, the multidrug resistance (MDR) proteins, ABCB1 and ABCC1 and the inhibition of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1), while the expressions of proapoptotic genes CASP3, CASP9, and BAX/BCL2 ratio were significantly increased. In contrast, crocetin at relatively low concentration (10 µM), like ATRA (1 µM) and As 2O 3 (0.5 µM), induced differentiation of leukemic cells toward granulocytic pattern, and increased the number of differentiated cells expressing CD11b and CD14, while the number of the immature cells expressing CD34 or CD33 was decreased. Furthermore, crocetin suppressed the expression of clinical marker promyelocytic leukemia/retinoic acid receptor-α ( PML/RARα) in NB4 and primary APL cells, and reduced the expression of histone deacetylase 1 ( HDAC1) in all leukemic cells. The results suggested that crocetin can be considered as a candidate for future preclinical and clinical trials of complementary APL treatment.  相似文献

Abstract

Saffron is the red dried stigmas of Crocus sativus L. flowers and used both as a spice and as a drug in traditional therapeutic. The biological activity of saffron in modern medicine is in development. Its numerous applications as an anti-oxidant and anti-cancer agent are due to its secondary metabolites and their derivatives (safranal, crocins, crocetin, dimethylcrocetin). The aim of this study was to examine the interaction of transfer RNA with safranal, crocetin, and dimethylcrocetin in aqueous solution at physiological conditions. Constant tRNA concentration (6.25 mM) and various drug/tRNA (phosphate) molar ratios of 1/48 to 1/8 were used. FT-IR and UV-Visible difference spectroscopic methods have been applied to determine the drug binding mode, the binding constants and the effects of drug complexation on the stability and conformation of tRNA duplex. External binding mode was observed for safranal crocetin and dimethylcrocetin, with overall binding constants Ksafranal = 6.8 (± 0.34) × 103 M?1, KCRT = 1.4 (± 0.31) × 104 M?1, and KDMCRT = 3.4 (± 0.30) × 104 M?1. Transfer RNA remains in the A-family structure, upon safranal, crocetin and dimethylcrocetin complexation.  相似文献

Saffron, the desiccated stigmas of Crocus sativus, is highly appreciated by its peculiar colour, flavour and aroma. The main compounds that accumulated throughout stigma development in C. sativus are crocetin, its glucoside derivatives, crocins, and picrocrocin, all of which increased as stigmas reached a fully developed stage. After anthesis, and in the absence of fertilization, the flower enters in a senescence programme, which represents the ultimate stage of floral development and results in wilting of whole flower. The programmed senescence of flowers allows the removal of a metabolically active tissue. We studied the composition of saffron apocarotenoids during the senescence of C. sativus flowers, and observed that changes in crocins were due to their transport from the senescent stigma to the ovaries and the developing corm. Afterwards, deglucosylation of crocins in these tissues results in crocetin accumulation. This mobilization mimics the export to storage cells (resorbed) of different compounds during leaf senescence avoiding loss of nutrients in leaves that would otherwise be cycled back into the soil system through leaf litter decomposition. In C. sativus, the resorbed apocarotenoids are stored within the developing corm, where they are not further detected in the advanced stages of development, suggesting that they are metabolized during the early and active phases of corm development, where the glucose molecules from crocins might contribute to cell initiation and elongation.  相似文献

Saffron plant (Crocus sativus L.) is being used as a source of saffron spice and medicine to cure or prevent different types of diseases including cancers. We report the isolation, characterization of bioactive small molecule ([crocetin (β-d-glucosyl) ester] from the leaf biowastes of saffron plant of Kashmir, India. MTTC assay and Bio-autography aided approach were used to assess anti-oxidant activity and anti-cancer properties of crocin (s) against DPPH free radical and breast cancer cell line respectively. Crocetin beta-d-glucosyl ester restrained proliferation of human breast adeno-carcinoma cell model (MCF-7) without significantly affecting normal cell line (L-6). Further studies involving molecular mechanics generalized born surface area and molecular docking showed that crocetin beta-d-glucosyl ester exhibits strong affinity for estrogen receptor alpha and histone deacetylase 2 (crucial receptors involved in breast cancer signalling) as evidenced by the negative docking score and binding free energy (BFE) values. Therefore, crocetin beta-d-glucosyl ester from Crocus sativus biowastes showed antiproliferative effect possibly by inhibiting estrogen receptor alpha and HDAC2 mediated signalling cascade.  相似文献

Saffron (Crocus sativus) stigmata contain rare water-soluble carotenoids and the major one is crocin, the crocetin digentiobiosyl-ester. Previous studies indicated that two glucosyltransferases might be involved in the formation of crocetin glucosyl- and gentiobiosyl-esters (Dufresne et al. 1997). A UDP-Glc: crocetin 8,8′-glucosyltransferase involved in the biosynthesis of crocetin monoglucosyl- and diglucosyl-esters was extracted from saffron cell cultures and purified 300-fold by gel filtration chromatography and preparative IEF electrophoresis, with a recovery of 13 percnt;. The purified enzyme preparation was highly specific for crocetin and formed ester bonds between the glucose moiety of UDP-Glc and the free carboxyl functions of crocetin. The enzyme did not add other glucose units to the glucosyl-esters to form crocetin gentiobiosyl-esters. A crude desalted extract of the same material was less specific and formed glucosyl-esters with several other compounds, including abscisic and retinoic acids. The purified preparation was active between pH 4.4 and 4.6. SDS-PAGE revealed a major band at 26 kDa while the native molecular mass determined by gel filtration was in the range of 49 to 55 kDa. The study provides concrete evidence for the hypothesis that more than one glucosyltransferase is involved in the biosynthesis of crocetin glycosyl-esters in saffron.  相似文献

Aims: Extracts of saffron (Crocus sativus L.) have traditionally been used against depressions. Recent preclinical and clinical investigations have rationalized this traditional use. Trans-crocetin, a saffron metabolite originating from the crocin apocarotenoids, has been shown to exert strong NMDA receptor affinity and is thought to be responsible for the CNS activity of saffron. Pharmacokinetic properties of the main constituents from saffron have only been described to a limited extent. Therefore the present in vitro study aimed to determine if crocin-1 and trans-crocetin are able to pass the intestinal barrier and to penetrate the blood brain barrier (BBB). Additionally, the intestinal conversion of glycosylated crocins to the lipophilic crocetin had to be investigated. Experiments with Caco-2 cells and two different porcine BBB systems were conducted. Further on, potential intestinal metabolism of saffron extract was investigated by ex vivo experiments with murine intestine.Methodology: In vitro Caco-2 monolayer cell culture was used for investigation of intestinal permeation of crocin-1 and trans-crocetin. In vitro models of porcine brain capillary endothelial cells (BCEC) and blood cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB) were used for monitoring permeation characteristics of trans-crocetin through the blood brain barrier (BBB). Intestine tissue and feces homogenates from mice served for metabolism experiments.Results: Crocin-1, even at high concentrations (1000 µM) does not penetrate Caco-2 monolayers in relevant amounts. In contrast, trans-crocetin permeates in a concentration-independent manner (10–114 µM) the intestinal barrier by transcellular passage with about 32% of the substrate being transported within 2 h and a permeation coefficient of Papp 25.7 × 106 ± 6.23 × 106 cm/s. Trans-crocetin serves as substrate for pGP efflux pump. Trans-crocetin permeates BBB with a slow but constant velocity over a 29 h period (BCEC system: Papp 1.48 × 106 ± 0.12 × 106 cm/s; BCSFB system Papp 3.85 × 106 ± 0.21 × 106 cm/s). Conversion of glycosylated crocins from saffron extract to trans-crocetin occurs mainly by intestinal cells, rather than by microbiological fermentation in the colon.Conclusion: The here described in vitro studies have shown that crocins from saffron are probably not bioavailable in the systemic compartment after oral application. On the other side the investigations clearly have pointed out that crocins get hydrolyzed in the intestine to the deglycosylated trans-crocetin, which subsequently is absorbed by passive transcellular diffusion to a high extend and within a short time interval over the intestinal barrier. Crocetin will penetrate in a quite slow process the blood brain barrier to reach the CNS. The intestinal deglycosylation of different crocins in the intestine is mainly due to enzymatic processes in the epithelial cells and only to a very minor extent due to deglycosylation by the fecal microbiome. On the other side the fecal bacteria degrade the apocarotenoid backbone to smaller alkyl units, which do not show any more the typical UV absorbance of crocins. As previous studies have shown strong NMDA receptor affinity and channel opening activity of trans-crocetin the use of saffron for CNS disorders seems to be justified from the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic background.  相似文献

The present study aimed to investigate the effect and possible mechanism of action of crocetin on the high cholesterol diet (HCD) induced atherosclerosis rat. The Wistar rats were used in the current investigation. The rats were divided into following group, Group I: control, Group II: HCD induced AS, Group III: AS + crocetin (25 mg/kg), Group IV: AS + crocetin (50 mg/kg) and Group V: AS + Simvastatin, respectively. AS was induced in the rats using the vitamin D3 and HCD. The rats received the pre-determined treatment for the 10 weeks. After the study period, the level of lipid profile, malonaldehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were also estimated. The proinflammatory cytokines viz., tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-6 were scrutinized using the ELISA kits. We also estimated the expression of phosphorylated p38 (p-p38) MAPK using the Western blot techniques. The results revealed that the AS was successfully induced in the rats. The AS control group rats showed the modulated level of lipid profile, and decreased the level of the SOD and boost the level of the MDA as compared with the normal control. However, crocetin thrived in enhancing the lipid profile toward the standard value in the normal control group rats. The crocetin and simvastatin group rats significantly inhibited the expression of the p-p38 MAPK as compared to the AS group rats. In conclusion, the current investigation revealed that the crocetin reduced the HCD induced dyslipidemia in the Wistar rats, the possible mechanism of action may be connected to the antioxidative, down regulating of p-p38 MAPK and antiinflammatory effect by crocetin.  相似文献

Background

The current study was designed to investigate the effect of crocetin on the proliferation inhibition of colon cancer cells and the underlying mechanism.

Methods

MTT assay showed inhibition of proliferation of colon cancer cells in a dose based manner by crocetin treatment. At 30 µM concentration of crocetin proliferation rate of colon cancer cells was reduced to 14% after 24 h. Flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy revealed induction of apoptosis in colon cancer cells on treatment with crocetin. The tube formation was suppressed significantly in the cultures of HUVEC treated with 30 µM concentration of crocetin compared to the control cultures.

Results

The results from transwell assay revealed a significant reduction in the population of DU-145 cells passing through filters of transwell on treatment with crocetin compared to the control cells. Treatment of the DU-145 cells with crocetin caused a significant reduction in the expression levels of NF-κB, VEGF and MMP-9. The results from RT-PCR analysis revealed a significant reduction in the expression of genes involved in inflammation including, HMGB1, IL-6 and IL-8 on treatment of DU-145 cells with crocetin. However, the expression of NAG-1 gene was increased by crocetin treatment in DU-145 cells significantly compared to the control cells.

Conclusion

Crocetin inhibits growth of colon cancer cells and prevents tube formation through induction of apoptosis. Therefore, crocetin can be used efficiently for the treatment of colon cancer.  相似文献

A greenish-yellow mutant was obtained after treatment of seeds of Nicotiana tabacum L. var. Xanthi n.c. with ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS). Two genetically independent mutations (a1 and a2) were isolated. The first mutation (a1) antagonizes the function of its partially dominant a1+ allele. The second mutation (a2) is amorphous but strongly interacts with a1.Among the nine possible genotypes at the two loci, five varied in somatic cells. The heterozygous state a1+/a1 strongly increased the frequency of both spontaneous and induced variations. However, two homozygotes also showed variations.Variants were isolated from induced and spontaneous non-reciprocal and reciprocal variations within paliside tissues by bud induction in vitro. They were genetically tested. In this first paper, only non-reciprocal variations are reported.Green variants from the greenish-yellow (J1) dihybrid a1+/a1a2+/a2 clone had two genotypes: the first was due to true reversions of a1 to a1+, whereas the second was due to amorphous a10 mutations from a1. These a10 mutations may well be deletions.The lightest yellow variants from J1 were due to mutations either from a1+ into a1 or from a2+ into a2.Deletions at the a1+?a1 locus led to either yellow variations when a1+ was lost, or to false reversions when the antagonistic allele a1 was lost.Amorphous alleles at the a1+?a1 locus were also isolated from tissues other than J+. They gave zygotic lethality (s) that probably varied with the size of the deletions. Thus, true reversions and deletions at the a1+?a1 locus could be distinguished from one another by progeny tests.Other variants showed higher frequencies of spontaneous variations (instability). Somatic changes observed in these unstable systems were due to modifications at the marker loci. The genetic nature of this instability is not yet known.There is strong evidence that the genetic events involved in these non-reciprocal variations were deletions, conversions and point mutations. True reversions from a1 into a1+ and new mutations from a1+ into a1 were obtained only from a1+/a1. It was therefore supposed that the changes observed took place only in heterozygotes, and the conversion hypothesis was made. Attempts are being made to prove that conversions do exist in higher plants, and to find out if this process, as deletions, is induced by radiation.  相似文献

The oxygen-evolving complex of Photosystem II cycles through five oxidation states (S0-S4), and dark incubation leads to 25% S0 and 75% S1. This distribution cannot be reached with charge recombination reactions between the higher S states and the electron acceptor QB. We measured flash-induced oxygen evolution to understand how S3 and S2 are converted to lower S states when the electron required to reduce the manganese cluster does not come from QB. Thylakoid samples preconditioned to make the concentration of the S1 state 100% and to oxidize tyrosine YD were illuminated by one or two laser preflashes, and flash-induced oxygen evolution sequences were recorded at various time intervals after the preflashes. The distribution of the S states was calculated from the flash-induced oxygen evolution pattern using an extended Kok model. The results suggest that S2 and S3 are converted to lower S states via recombination from S2QB and S3QB and by a slow change of the state of oxygen-evolving complex from S3 and S2 to S1 and S0 in reactions with unspecified electron donors. The slow pathway appears to contain two-electron routes, S2QBS0QB, and S3QBS1QB. The two-electron reactions dominate in intact thylakoid preparations in the absence of chemical additives. The two-electron reaction was replaced by a one-electron-per-step pathway, S3QBS2QBS1QB in PS II-enriched membrane fragments and in thylakoids measured in the presence of artificial electron acceptors. A catalase effect suggested that H2O2 acts as an electron donor for the reaction S2QBS0QB but added H2O2 did not enhance this reaction.  相似文献

The NADH:menaquinone oxidoreductase (Nqo) is one of the enzymes present in the respiratory chain of the thermohalophilic bacterium Rhodothermus marinus. The genes coding for the R. marinus Nqo subunits were isolated and sequenced, clustering in two operons [nqo1 to nqo7 (nqoA) and nqo10 to nqo14 (nqoB)] and two independent genes (nqo8 and nqo9). Unexpectedly, two genes encoding homologues of a NhaD Na+/H+ antiporter (NhaD) and of a pterin-4α-carbinolamine dehydratase (PCD) were identified within nqoB, flanked by nqo13 and nqo14. Eight conserved motives to harbour iron-sulphur centres are identified in the deduced primary structures, as well as two consensus sequences to bind nucleotides, in this case NADH and FMN. Moreover, the open-reading-frames of the putative NhaD and PCD were shown to be co-transcribed with the other complex I genes encoded by nqoB. The possible role of these two genes in R. marinus complex I is discussed.  相似文献

In this study, S-allele diversity of eight wild and two commercial species of the Cerasus subgenus in Iran was investigated using two primer pairs. A high level of S-allele polymorphism was detected among and within the species evaluated. Furthermore, most of wild species showed 2–4 alleles based on S-allele primers and may be considered as tetraploid. Sweet cherry cultivars, Siah-Mashhad, Siah-Shabestar, Takdaneh-Mashhad, Siah-Daneshkadeh and Protiva showed S3S12, S3S12, S3S12, S3S5 and S3S4 combinations, respectively, allele S3 showing the highest frequency. Three Iranian sweet cherry cultivars had the same allelic combination (S3S12) that the same ancestor in genealogy of these cultivars may explain the loss of diversity observed at the S-locus. Wild cherry (mazzard) accessions showed wide range of alleles such as S1, S2, S7, S14 and S20 and unknown alleles, while sour cherries showed S6, S9, S13 and S27 alleles. In conclusion, the conservation of these highly diverse native species of Iranian wild Cerasus germplasm is recommended for future breeding activity.  相似文献

Three new iridoid glycosides, 6″-O-trans-caffeoylgenipin gentiobioside (1), genipin 1-O-β-d-apiofuranosyl (1→6)-β-d-glucopyranoside (2), genipin 1-O-α-d-xylopyranosyl (1→6)-β-d-glucopyranoside (3), three new monocyclic monoterpenoids, jasminoside R (4), jasminoside S (5), jasminoside T (6), together with nine known iridoid glycosides (715) and three crocetin glycosides (1618), were isolated from the fruit of Gardenia jasminoides. Their chemical structures were established mainly by 1D and 2D NMR techniques and mass spectrometry. Inhibitory effects of the isolated compounds on nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccaride-activated macrophages were evaluated. Compounds 8 and 18 showed strong inhibitory activity on NO production with IC50 values of 11.14 ± 0.67 and 5.99 ± 0.54 μM, respectively.  相似文献

Magnetically ordered Ni[TCNE]2 · zCH2Cl2 (Tc = 13 K) is reported for the first time from the reaction of Ni(CO)4 with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE). A family of new solid solution room temperature magnets of VxNi1 − x[TCNE]y · zCH2Cl2 (0 ? x < 1; y ? 2) composition has been characterized by IR spectrometry, elemental analysis, and magnetic measurements (ac and dc susceptibility). Substitution of NiII for VII in V[TCNE]y · zCH2Cl2 does not alter the Tc significantly for x ? 0.05 and does not alter Hcr significantly for x > 0; however, the magnitude of M increases with x, as does the broadness of the peaks in the χ′(T) and χ″(T) ac susceptibilities. Hence, the magnetic properties of the room temperature V[TCNE]y · zCH2Cl2 magnet can be finely tuned via synthetic chemistry methodology, making this material more amenable in future technologies.  相似文献

The dinuclear ruthenium complexes Ru2(CO)4(OOCC5H4FeC5H5)2L2 (L = NC5H5: 1, L = PPh3: 2) have been synthesized from Ru3(CO)12, ferrocene carboxylic acid and pyridine or triphenylphosphine, respectively. The single-crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals for 1 and 2 a Ru2(CO)4 sawhorse backbone with the two ferrocenyl substituents of the two carboxylato bridges being endo/exo with respect to each other in the solid state. With the new pyridine derivative NC5H4OOCC5H4FeC5H5 (4-ferrocenoyl pyridine) (3) as axial ligand, the complex Ru2(CO)4(OOCC5H4FeC5H5)2(NC5H4OOCC5H4FeC5H5)2 (4) was obtained, the single crystal X-ray structure analysis showing an exo/exo orientation of the two carboxylato bridges in the solid state. The endo/endo orientation is found in the solid-state structure of Ru2(CO)4(HNOCC5H4FeC5H5)2(PPh3)2 (5), the two OCNH bridges being transoïd with respect to each other; this complex is accessible from Ru3(CO)12, ferrocenamide and triphenylphosphine.  相似文献

The title compounds were made by reacting bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm) with reduced solutions of OsCl64? and Ru2OCl104?. The crystal and molecular structures of these compounds have been determined form three-dimensional X-ray study. The cis-isomers crystallize with one CHCl3 per molecule of the complex. All three compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/n with unit cell dimensions as follows: Cis-OsCl2(dppm)2·CHCl3: a = 13.415(4) Å, b = 22.859(4) Å, c = 16.693(3) Å, β = 105.77(3)°, V = 4926(3) Å3, Z = 4. cis-RuCl2(dppm)2·CHCl3: a = 13.442(3) Å, b = 22.833(7) Å, c = 16.750(4) Å, β = 105.53(2)°, V = 4953(3) Å3, Z = 4. trans-RuCl2(dppm)2: a = 11.368(7) Å, b = 10.656(6) Å, c = 18.832(12) Å; β = 103.90(6)°, V = 2213(7) Å3; Z = 2. The structures were refined to R = 0.044 (Rw = 0.055) for cis-OsCl2(dppm)2·CHCl3; R = 0.065 (Rw = 0.079) for cis-RuCl2(dppm)2·CHCl3 and R = 0.028 (Rw = 0.038) for trans-RuCl2(dppm)2. The complexes are six coordinate with stable four-membered chelate rings. The PMP angle in the chelate rings is ca. 71° in each case.  相似文献

Owing to the complex nature of V1VO ATPases, identification of neighboring subunits is essential for mechanistic understanding of this enzyme. Here, we describe the links between the V1 headpiece and the VO-domain of the yeast V1VO ATPase via subunit A and d as well as the VO subunits a and d using surface plasmon resonance and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. Binding constants of about 60 and 200 nM have been determined for the a-d and d-A assembly, respectively. The data are discussed in light of subunit a and d forming a peripheral stalk, connecting the catalytic A3B3 hexamer with VO.
