Effects on Tyrosinase Activity by the Extracts of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Ganoderma lucidum</Emphasis> and Related Mushrooms

The inhibitory effects on tyrosinase activity by extracts of several mushrooms belonging to Basidiomycetes were evaluated.

Scavenging of hydrogen peroxide and inhibition of ultraviolet light-induced oxidative DNA damage by aqueous extracts from green and black teas

Aqueous extracts of green and black teas have been shown to inhibit a variety of experimentally induced animal tumors, particularly ultraviolet (UV) B light-induced skin carcinogenesis. In the present study, we compared the effects of different extractable fractions of green and black teas on scavenging hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and UV irradiation-induced formation of 8-hydroxy 2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in vitro. Green and black teas have been extracted by serial chloroform, ethyl acetate and n-butanol, and divided into four subfractions designated as GT1-4 for green tea and BT1-4 for black tea, respectively. The total extracts from green and black teas exhibited a potent scavenging capacity of exogenous H2O2 in a dose-dependent manner. It appeared that the total extracts from black tea scavenged H2O2 more potently than those from green tea. When tested individually, the potency of scavenging H2O2 by green tea subfractions was: GT2 > GT3 > GT1 > GT4, whereas the order of efficacy for black tea was: BT2 > BT3 > BT4 > BT1. In addition, we demonstrated that total fractions of green and black teas substantially inhibited the induction of 8-OHdG in calf thymus by all three portions of UV spectrum (UVA, B and C). Consistent with the capacity of scavenging H2O2, the subfractions from black tea showed a greater inhibition of UV-induced 8-OHdG than those from green tea. At low concentrations, the order of potency of quenching of 8-OHdG by green tea subfractions was: GT2 > GT3 > GT4 > GT1 and the efficacy of all subfractions became similar at high concentrations. All subfractions of the black tea except BT1 strongly inhibited UV-induced 8-OHdG and the order of potency was: BT2 > BT3 > BT4 > BT1. Addition of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), an ingredient of green tea extract, to low concentration of green and black tea extracts substantially enhanced the scavenging of H2O2 and quenching of 8-OHdG, suggesting the important role of EGCG in the antioxidant activities of tea extracts. The potent scavenging of oxygen species and blocking of UV-induced oxidative DNA damage may, at least in part, explain the mechanism(s) by which green/black teas inhibit photocarcinogenesis.     

Antioxidant activities of ethanol extracts from seeds in fresh Bokbunja (Rubus coreanus Miq.) and wine processing waste

The antioxidant potential of ethanol extracts from defatted Bokbunja seed wastes generated during wine processing were estimated by radical scavenging abilities (DPPH(*), H(2)O(2), and O(2)(*-)), retardation of lipid oxidation, and iron ion-chelating characteristics. For comparison, ethanol extracts from seeds of fresh ripe Bokbunja fruits were also used. The ethanol extracts from the wine seed waste always showed higher scavenging activities against DPPH(*), H(2)O(2), and O(2)(*-) than those from the fresh seeds. The oxidation of linoleic acid in dimethylsulfoxide at 105 degrees C revealed that the kinetic behavior clearly obeyed pseudo-zero-order regardless of the linoleic acid concentration. The Fe(II)-chelating capacity was determined by the Freundlich isotherm. The results showed high potential and favorability of the two extracts for Fe(II) chelation. The Freundlich chelation capacities (mg(1-1/n)L(1/n)/g) of both ethanol extracts from seeds of fresh Bokbunja and wine processing wastes, tannic acid, and proanthocyanidin from Pinus radiata bark were 100, 224, 260, and 307, respectively. The Fe(III)-chelating properties of the ethanol extracts were considered to be deeply associated with its 3',4',5'-trihydroxyl (galloyl) group as with tannic acid.     

Antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of mycelial and fruit-body extracts from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Mycoleptodonoides aitchisonii</Emphasis>

Mycoleptodonoides aitchisonii (Berk.) Maas Geest. is a culinary mushroom that is recognized as both a nutritious food and an excellent source of bioactive compounds. The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidant and antidiabetic properties of M. aitchisonii (MA) both in vitro and in vivo. Total oxyradical scavenging capacity (TOSC) assays revealed that fruit-body extracts had higher antioxidant capacity than mycelial extracts, 0.9-fold higher as measured by peroxynitrite (PN) scavenging assay, 3.7-fold higher as measured by peroxyl radical (PR) scavenging assay, and 1.6-fold as measured by hydroxyl radical (HR) scavenging assay, respectively. The assay of Akt phosphorylation, which is inhibited by Interleukin 6 (IL-6) in the signal transduction pathway for diabetes, was employed to evaluate the antidiabetic activity. Fruit-body extracts significantly increased Akt phosphorylation according to the fruit-body extract concentration, with a maximum increment of 77% at a concentration of 100 μg/mL compared to 51.4% decrement caused by IL-6, but there was no effect of mycelial extracts. Treatment with 5% MA fruit-body powder and streptozotocin (STZ) decreased the blood sugar level to 233.8 mg/dL in diabetic mice compared to 333.8 mg/dL after treatment with STZ alone. Additionally, MA treatment lowered total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and LDL-cholesterol levels, while it increased the HDL-cholesterol level. All these findings indicate that fruit-body of M. aitchisonii has potential utility in preventing various diseases such as disorders of sugar and lipid metabolism.

Metabolomic profiling and antioxidant activity of some Acacia species

Metabolomic profiling of different parts (leaves, flowers and pods) of Acacia species (Acacia nilotica, Acacia seyal and Acacia laeta) was evaluated. The multivariate data analyses such as principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least square-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were used to differentiate the distribution of plant metabolites among different species or different organs of the same species. A.nilotica was characterized with a high content of saponins and A.seyal was characterized with high contents of proteins, phenolics, flavonoids and anthocyanins. A.laeta had a higher content of carbohydrates than A. nilotica and A. seyal. On the basis of these results, total antioxidant capacity, DPPH free radical scavenging activity and reducing power of the methanolic extracts of studied parts were evaluated. A.nilotica and A.seyal extracts showed less inhibitory concentration 50 (IC₅₀) compared to A.laeta extracts which means that these two species have the strongest radical scavenging activity whereas A. laeta extracts have the lowest radical scavenging activity. A positive correlation between saponins and flavonoids with total antioxidant capacity and DPPH radical scavenging activity was observed. Based on these results, the potentiality of these plants as antioxidants was discussed.
