Background/PurposeSome health-beneficial foods, including adzuki beans ( Vigna angularis), can show antihyperglycemic effects. Adzuki bean-derived polyphenols, such as (+)-catechin 7- O- β-d-glucopyranoside (C7G) and (+)-epicatechin 7- O- β-d-glucopyranoside (E7G), could be potential inhibitors of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, however, few studies of the activity of adzuki polyphenols have been performed in vivo. Thus, we evaluated the antihyperglycemic effects of crude adzuki bean extract containing polyphenols (ABP), and purified C7G or E7G using mice and Caco-2 cells.MethodsSix-week-old male ICR mice were orally administered ABP (100 or 250 mg/kg), C7G or E7G (15 or 40 mg/kg), and sucrose (2 g/kg). Blood samples were taken from the lateral tail vein to measure the blood glucose levels at various times over 0–120 min. Cultured caco-2 cells, an intestinal model, were treated with ABP, C7G, or E7G. The glucose concentration in the medium was measured to examine the activity of α-glucosidase.ResultsAdministration of adzuki polyphenols decreased blood glucose levels, especially E7G administration significantly showed antihyperglycemic effects in vivo. In Caco-2 cells, α-glucosidase activity was significantly decreased by ABP, C7G, or E7G addition in a dose-dependent manner without cytotoxicity.ConclusionThese results suggest that C7G and E7G in adzuki bean extract inhibited sucrose-degrading enzymes to elicit antihyperglycemic effects in vivo, which supports the results of previous studies using adzuki beans, and may contribute to health promotion.
背景/目的包括赤小豆在内的一些有益健康的食物具有降血糖作用。从赤豆中提取的多酚类物质,如(+)-儿茶素 7- O- β-d-吡喃葡萄糖苷(C7G)和(+)-表儿茶素 7- O- β-d-吡喃葡萄糖苷(E7G),可能是α-淀粉酶和α-葡萄糖苷酶的潜在抑制剂。因此,我们使用小鼠和 Caco-2 细胞评估了含有多酚的粗赤豆提取物(ABP)和纯化的 C7G 或 E7G 的降血糖作用。方法给六周大的雄性 ICR 小鼠口服 ABP(100 或 250 毫克/千克)、C7G 或 E7G(15 或 40 毫克/千克)和蔗糖(2 克/千克)。从侧尾静脉抽取血液样本,以测量 0-120 分钟内不同时间的血糖水平。用 ABP、C7G 或 E7G 处理培养的肠道模型 caco-2 细胞。测量培养基中的葡萄糖浓度,以检查α-葡萄糖苷酶的活性。结果给药赤藓红多酚可降低血糖水平,尤其是给药 E7G 显著显示出体内抗高血糖作用。在 Caco-2 细胞中,ABP、C7G 或 E7G 的添加以剂量依赖的方式显著降低了 α-葡萄糖苷酶的活性,且无细胞毒性。结论这些结果表明,赤小豆提取物中的 C7G 和 E7G 可抑制蔗糖降解酶,从而在体内产生降血糖作用,这支持了之前使用赤小豆进行研究的结果,并可能有助于促进健康。

Objective: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons and persistent neuroinflammation in the substantia nigra (SN), triggering a dopamine deficiency that can lead to movement disorders. Neuroinflammation is a common feature of aging brains and neurodegenerative diseases. Inflammasome-related neuroinflammation is involved in the progression of PD. Methods: The effects of cimifugin was investigated in a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced mouse model of PD. Cimifugin is one of the main components of Saposhnikovia divaricata (Turcz.) Schischkin. Behavioral tests, such as the rotarod, pole, and traction tests, were conducted to measure the recovery effects of Parkinson-related motor deficiencies. Results: Our analyses showed that cimifugin treatment mitigates motor dysfunction in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, cimifugin conferred neuroprotection by increasing the survival of dopaminergic neurons, as measured by tyrosine hydroxylase immunostaining. Neuroinflammation was reduced by cimifugin by inhibiting NLR family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3)/caspase-1/interleukin 1β signaling in the MPTP-insulted SN. Moreover, monosodium urate crystals, an NLRP3 agonist, reversed cimifugin-induced improvement in motor function in the PD model. Conclusion: These results suggest that cimifugin administration is a potential therapeutic strategy for mitigating PD.
目的:帕金森病(Parkinson's disease)是一种神经退行性疾病:帕金森病(Parkinson's disease,PD)是一种神经退行性疾病,其特征是黑质(SN)中多巴胺能神经元的丧失和持续的神经炎症,引发多巴胺缺乏,从而导致运动障碍。神经炎症是大脑衰老和神经退行性疾病的共同特征。与炎症体相关的神经炎症与帕金森病的进展有关。研究方法在1-甲基-4-苯基-1,2,3,6-四氢吡啶(MPTP)诱导的帕金森病小鼠模型中研究了cimifugin的作用。Cimifugin 是 Saposhnikovia divaricata (Turcz.) Schischkin 的主要成分之一。为了测量帕金森氏症相关运动缺陷的恢复效果,对小鼠进行了行为测试,如转体测试、杆测试和牵引测试。结果显示我们的分析表明,cimifugin能以剂量依赖的方式缓解运动功能障碍。此外,通过酪氨酸羟化酶免疫染色法测定,cimifugin 还能提高多巴胺能神经元的存活率,从而起到神经保护作用。cimifugin通过抑制MPTP侵袭的SN中的NLR家族含吡咯啉结构域3(NLRP3)/caspase-1/白细胞介素1β信号传导,减轻了神经炎症。此外,NLRP3激动剂尿酸单钠盐晶体逆转了cimifugin诱导的帕金森病模型运动功能改善。结论这些结果表明,服用cimifugin是缓解帕金森病的一种潜在治疗策略。

ObjectiveThe objective of our study was to investigate the chemical composition and the biological activities of different parts of Securidaca longipedunculata from South Africa.MethodologiesThe chemical analysis methods, including chromatography and spectroscopy, were employed to identify the diverse array of compounds present in the roots, leaves, and stems of S longipedunculata.ResultsThe proximate analysis revealed that the leaf extracts had higher ( P < .05) crude protein, gross energy, and ether extract contents when compared to the stem bark and the root bark. A similar trend was observed with the mineral analysis where copper, iron, magnesium, and zinc were in abundance in the leaves. Concurrently, bioassays reveal significant biological activities, such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties, associated with these plant parts. The extracts demonstrated high lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity at the concentration of 250 μg/mL, with the highest percentage inhibition of 94% recorded in the dark leaf extract, followed by 92% and 73% at the concentrations of 125 and 62.5 μg/mL, respectively. The antimicrobial analysis revealed that the root bark extract was active against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterococcus faecalis with the average minimum inhibitory concentration of 1.67 mg/mL (dark type) and 0.63 mg/mL (light type).ConclusionOur findings emphasize the medicinal potential of S longipedunculata and underscore the importance of understanding its chemical makeup in explaining its therapeutic effects. This research provides valuable insights into the pharmacological properties of S longipedunculata, offering a foundation for further exploration in drug development and natural product discovery.

Some plants used in traditional medicine to manage sickle cell disease have been validated pharmacologically to ascertain their anti-sickling properties. However, there is no global systematic review of the evidence in support of their use for sickle cell management. This research aimed to conduct a systematic review of the pharmacological evidence to highlight species, genera, and some phytochemicals which could be primed for novel anti-sickling medications. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were used. Articles in English, published from 2000 to 2022 were included in the analysis. The literature search covered 411 publications of which 82 were found to be eligible. More than half (53.65%) of the articles were published from 2016 to 2022. Anti-sickling research from Africa accounted for 86.58% of the publications, with more than half coming from Nigeria, 12.20% from Asia and only 1.22% from Europe. The Fabaceae, Euphorbiaceae, and Annonaceae were the top three plant families whereas Zanthoxylum and Terminalia were the most reported genera. Carica papaya and Terminalia catappa were the most reported species. Sickling reversal ( n = 33/82) and hemoglobin polymerization studies ( n = 29/82) were the most reported assays. Benzoic acid derivatives, butyl stearate, ellagic acid derivatives, and some pentacyclic triterpenoids were the only plant derived compounds validated for anti-sickling activities. A total of 117 plant species with anti-sickling activities were documented. Studies on secondary metabolites with anti-sickling properties to serve as scaffolds for novel drug development for sickle cell management were limited.
传统医学中用于治疗镰状细胞病的一些植物已通过药理学验证,以确定其抗镰状细胞病的特性。然而,目前还没有对支持这些植物用于镰状细胞病治疗的证据进行全球性的系统综述。本研究旨在对药理学证据进行系统综述,以突出可用于新型抗镰状细胞病药物的物种、属和一些植物化学物质。研究采用了系统综述和元分析首选报告项目(PRISMA)指南。分析纳入了 2000 年至 2022 年发表的英文文章。文献检索涵盖 411 篇出版物,其中 82 篇符合条件。一半以上(53.65%)的文章发表于 2016 年至 2022 年。来自非洲的抗酸化研究占86.58%,其中一半以上来自尼日利亚,12.20%来自亚洲,只有1.22%来自欧洲。豆科(Fabaceae)、大戟科(Euphorbiaceae)和葵科(Annonaceae)是发表论文最多的三个植物科,而 Zanthoxylum 和 Terminalia 是发表论文最多的属。木瓜(Carica papaya)和鸡冠花(Terminalia catappa)是报告最多的物种。西克令反转(n = 33/82)和血红蛋白聚合研究(n = 29/82)是报道最多的检测方法。苯甲酸衍生物、硬脂酸丁酯、鞣花酸衍生物和一些五环三萜类化合物是唯一通过抗镰刀菌活性验证的植物衍生化合物。共有 117 种植物具有抗酸洗活性。对具有抗镰状细胞病特性的次生代谢物进行的研究有限,这些次生代谢物可作为开发治疗镰状细胞病的新型药物的支架。

The literature search covered 411 publications of which 82 were found to be eligible. More than half (53.65%) of the articles were published from 2016 to 2022. Anti-sickling research from Africa accounted for 86.58% of the publications, with more than half coming from Nigeria, 12.20% from Asia and only 1.22% from Europe. The Fabaceae, Euphorbiaceae, and Annonaceae were the top three plant families whereas Zanthoxylum and Terminalia were the most reported genera. Carica papaya and Terminalia catappa were the most reported species. Sickling reversal ( n = 33/82) and hemoglobin polymerization studies ( n = 29/82) were the most reported assays. Benzoic acid derivatives, butyl stearate, ellagic acid derivatives, and some pentacyclic triterpenoids were the only plant derived compounds validated for anti-sickling activities. A total of 117 plant species with anti-sickling activities were documented. Studies on secondary metabolites with anti-sickling properties to serve as scaffolds for novel drug development for sickle cell management were limited.","PeriodicalId":19019,"journal":{"name":"Natural Product Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142177252","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objective: The objective was to determine the in vitro antibacterial effect of the Oregano essential oil (OEO) on Streptococcus mutans ( S mutans) and to explore the anti-biofilm effect and mechanism of OEO. Methods: The in vitro antibacterial susceptibility of OEO was detected by the growth curve and colony-forming unit (CFU) counting method. Confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) and crystal violet assay were used to explore the anti-biofilm activity of OEO, and the anti-biofilm mechanism was explored from the aspects of extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) synthesis, acidoid, and extracellular DNA changes. OEO was characterized using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometer and cytotoxicity was tested using a cell counting Kit-8 assay. Results: The minimum inhibitory concentration of OEO was 0.25 mg/mL, and the CFU showed the ability of OEO to kill planktonic bacteria. Scanning electron microscopy and CLSM showed that OEO could hinder the development of biofilms, harm bacteria, and eliminate mature biofilms by changing EPS synthesis and pH value. Carvacrol in OEO played a major role in biological antibacterial activity. OEO had low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility. Conclusions: OEO had excellent antibacterial and anti-biofilm effects on the key virulence traits of S mutans, indicating potential prospects in preventing dental caries.
研究目的目的:测定牛至精油(OEO)对变异链球菌(S mutans)的体外抗菌效果,并探索 OEO 的抗生物膜效果和机制。研究方法通过生长曲线和菌落形成单位(CFU)计数法检测 OEO 的体外抗菌敏感性。采用共聚焦激光扫描显微镜(CLSM)和水晶紫检测法探讨OEO的抗生物膜活性,并从胞外多糖(EPS)合成、类酸和胞外DNA变化等方面探讨其抗生物膜机制。使用气相色谱-质谱仪对 OEO 进行了表征,并使用细胞计数 Kit-8 检测了细胞毒性。结果显示OEO 的最小抑菌浓度为 0.25 mg/mL,CFU 表明 OEO 能够杀死浮游细菌。扫描电镜和CLSM显示,OEO可通过改变EPS的合成和pH值来阻碍生物膜的发展、伤害细菌并消除成熟的生物膜。OEO 中的香芹酚在生物抗菌活性中发挥了重要作用。OEO 的细胞毒性低,生物相容性好。结论OEO 对变形杆菌的主要毒力特征有很好的抗菌和抗生物膜作用,在预防龋齿方面具有潜在的前景。

ObjectivesThe herbal product corilagin is renowned for its liver-protecting benefits and antioxidant properties. However, the protective role of corilagin in alcoholic liver injury remains unexplored. The objective of this study is to delve into the protective effects of corilagin on alcoholic liver injury, both in HepG2 cells and a mouse model.MethodsTo assess the antioxidant capacity of corilagin in vitro, DPPH and ABTS assays were conducted. HepG2 cells were pretreated with 800 mM ethanol for 24 hours, followed by corilagin treatment for another 24 hours, to evaluate its liver-protecting activity. For in vivo studies, ICR mice, with and without corilagin treatment, were given ethanol for 4 weeks to induce alcoholic liver injury. At the end of the study, serum and liver tissue samples were collected to analyze liver function, enzymatic antioxidants, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, alcohol dehydrogenase, and liver tissue histology.ResultsThe findings reveal that corilagin exhibits remarkable free radical scavenging ability and alleviates alcohol-induced cell damage in vitro. In vivo, corilagin significantly reduced liver index and serum levels of aminotransferase aspartate, alanine transaminase, total cholesterol, and triglyceride in mice with alcoholic liver injury. Additionally, corilagin decreased ROS levels in liver tissue and increased the activities of antioxidant enzymes CAT, SOD, and GSH-Px. GSH content increased, while lipid peroxide MDA decreased in liver tissue.ConclusionOur data strongly suggests that corilagin possesses protective effects on alcoholic liver injury, both in vitro and in vivo, which is likely attributed to its exceptional antioxidant capacity. In summary, corilagin holds promise as a potential preventive or therapeutic agent for alcoholic liver injury.
目的草药产品柯里拉京因其保护肝脏的功效和抗氧化特性而闻名。然而,柯里拉京在酒精性肝损伤中的保护作用仍有待探索。本研究旨在探讨柯里拉京在 HepG2 细胞和小鼠模型中对酒精性肝损伤的保护作用。用 800 mM 乙醇预处理 HepG2 细胞 24 小时,然后再用柯里拉京处理 24 小时,以评估其护肝活性。在体内研究中,给接受或未接受柯里拉京治疗的 ICR 小鼠注射乙醇 4 周,以诱导酒精性肝损伤。研究结果表明,柯里拉京具有显著的清除自由基的能力,并能减轻酒精诱导的体外细胞损伤。在体内,柯里拉京能显著降低酒精性肝损伤小鼠的肝指数和血清中天门冬氨酸氨基转移酶、丙氨酸转氨酶、总胆固醇和甘油三酯的水平。此外,柯里拉京还能降低肝组织中的 ROS 水平,提高抗氧化酶 CAT、SOD 和 GSH-Px 的活性。结论我们的数据有力地表明,柯里拉京在体外和体内对酒精性肝损伤都具有保护作用,这很可能归功于其卓越的抗氧化能力。总之,柯里拉京有望成为预防或治疗酒精性肝损伤的潜在药物。

ObjectivesThe genus Glochidion (the family Phyllanthaceae) is used for various medicinal purposes, such as dysentery, diarrhea, cough, and skin protection. A review of phytochemical and pharmacological aspects for this remains unavailable. The current study tends to sum up a detailed list of phytochemicals, and their role in biological examinations.MethodsReferences in English were obtained by an extensive search across various electronic data sources, encompassing Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. The “Sci-Finder” was also utilized to find references and revise chemical structures. Referenced documents have been gathered from the 1960s to date. It also noted that Glochidion, phytochemistry, and pharmacology are likely the keywords to seek for references.ResultsOver 240 naturally occurring phytochemicals were isolated and identified from various Glochidion tissues, including terpenoids, sterols, saponins, lignans, flavonoids, mono-phenols, megastigmanes, butenolides, glycosides, alkaloids, cyanogens, tocopherols, fatty acids, and others. Three naturally occurring triterpenoids glochidonol, glochidiol, and glochidone are the likely characteristic metabolites, being isolated frequently. Glochidion crude extracts and their isolated compounds have been demonstrated as potential agents in various pharmacological targets, such as cytotoxicity, antioxidant, antiinflammation, and neuron and liver protection.ConclusionSeveral isolates acted as promising agents in pharmacological assays. The anticancer mechanisms of various triterpenoids and saponins, especially new and potential compounds, are expected. Pharmacological advancements to enhance the efficacies of Glochidion constituents, such as synergistic combinations and nano-drug formulations, are encouraged.
