Compounds were isolated from a 60% ethanolic extract by various chromatographic techniques and were identified by spectral analysis. The antioxidant activities of compounds were evaluated by DPPH free radical scavenging assay. Five phenanthrenes and four lignans were obtained from the active fractions ofD. nobile. Their structures were identified as fimbriatone （1）, confusarin （2）, flavanthrinin （3）, 2,5-dihydroxy-4,9-dimethoxyphenanthrene （4）, 3,7-dihydroxy-2,4-dimethoxyphenanthrene （5）, syringaresinol （6）, pinoresinol （7）, medioresinol （8） and lirioresinol-A （9）, respectively. Compounds 2 and 6 exhibited more potent DPPH scavenging activities than vitamin C. All the above compounds were reported from this plant for the first time, and compounds 3, 4 and 9 were reported for the first time from the genus of Dendrobiurn. For all phenanthrenes and lignans, an electron-donating methoxyl group in the ortho position to the phenolic hydroxyl group exhibits enhanced antioxidant activities.展开更多

The impact of flaxseed lignans on the skeletal muscle in male rats was determined in vivo. Flaxseed lignans （50 ppm） and daidzein （5 ppm） were added into the basal diets, respectively. The concentrations of serum lignans and daidzein were measured by high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）, and the serum growth hormone and testosterone （T） levels were analyzed by radioimmunoassay （RIA）, and the expression of estrogen receptor β （ER β） in the soleus muscle and hypothalamus were determined by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR）. Flaxseed lignans and daidzein could significantly improve the feed efficiency and facilitate the weight gain of the femoral muscle in male rats. The ratio of RNA to DNA in the muscles and serum T levels was remarkably increased, whereas, the urea nitrogen concentrations were significantly decreased by flaxseed lignan and/or its metabolites and daidzein. Meanwhile, the expression of ER β in soleus muscle and hypothalamus were both upgraded by the two phytoestrogens. Flaxseed lignan promoted the growth of male rats, and it might be by regulating serum T levels by binding to ER β in the hypothalamus. In turn, it depressed the catabolism of protein and promoted the hypertrophy of skeletal muscle ceils.展开更多

文摘Ten neolignans or norlignans(1-10)including eight new compounds were isolated from the whole bodies of Polyphaga plancyi Bolivar.Their structures were identified by spectroscopic data.Compounds 3,4,8,and 9 are racemates indicated by chiral HPLC analysis.Chiral separation followed by ECD calculations allowed to clarify the absolute configurations of all the antipodes.All the new compounds were evaluated for their biological properties toward extracellular matrix in rat renal proximal tubular cells,human cancer cells(K562,A549,and Huh7),EV71,ROCK2,JAK3,DDR1,and coagulation.

文摘Two new neolignans selaginellol(1)and selaginellol 4'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(2),together with seven known compounds(3–9),were isolated from the whole plant of Selaginella moellendorffii.The structures of the new isolates were determined through spectroscopic data analysis.Compounds 1–9,as well as compounds 10–18 previously isolated from the species,were measured for the activity against platelet aggregation induced by ADP or collagen.Three neoligans(8,11,and 12),one flavanone(14),and one alkaloid(16)showed inhibitory activity against ADP-or collagen-induced platelet aggregation as compared with tirofiban.The dihydrobenzofuran neolignans(8,11,and 12)are more potent than the benzofuran neolignan(13)and other types of neolignans(1–7).Glucosidation of the dihydrobenzofuran neolignans(11 and 12)is helpful for the activity.Graphical Abstract Two new neolignans selaginellol(1)and selaginellol 40-O-b-D-glucopyranoside(2)were isolated from the whole plant of Selaginella moellendorffii.Several compounds from this plant showed the activity against platelet aggregation induced by ADP or collagen.

文摘Two new highly oxygenated limonoids,flexuosoids A(1)and B(2),and three new arylnaphthalene lignan glycosides,phyllanthusmins D–F(3–5),were isolated from the roots of Phyllanthus flexuosus,in addition to three known lignans,phyllanthusmin C,arabelline,and(?)-diasyringaresinol.Their structures were elucidated on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analysis and chemical methods.Compounds 1 and 2,two new decaoxygenated limonoids with a C-19/29 lactol bridge and heptaoxygenated substituents at C-1,C-2,C-3,C-7,C-11,C-17,and C-30,represent the second example of limonoids in the Euphorbiaceae family.Most of the isolates were tested for their antifeedant,anti-herpes simplex virus 1,and cytotoxic activities.The new limonoids 1 and 2 showed promising antifeedant activity against the beet army worm(Spodoptera exigua)with EC50 values of 25.1 and 17.3 lg/cm2,respectively.In addition,both of them displayed moderate cytotoxicity against the ECA109 human esophagus cancer cell line,along with the known lignan glycoside,phyllanthusmin C,with the IC50 values of 11.5(1),8.5(2),and 7.8(phyllanthusmin C)lM,respectively.

文摘Microwave assisted-semi bionic extraction (MASBE) process for lignans from Fructus Forsythiae was studied. The influences of solvent pH value, microwave power, dosage of solvent and irradiation time were investigated. Optimum extracting parameters were determined by orthogonal experiments as follows: pH value of solvent at first extraction is 5.5-6.0, that at the second extraction is 7-8; microwave power is 700 W; mass ratio of Fructus Forsythiae to water is 1-12; irradiation time is 10 min, and extracting times is two. Under these optimal conditions, the yield of lignans reaches 0.364%. Compared with the conventional extraction methods, the MASBE process has the advantages of high extraction rate, high extraction selectivity.
