JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 333:118503. [PMID: 38942157 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2024.118503] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2024] [Revised: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium (CRP), known as Chen Pi in China, is the most commonly used medicine for regulating qi. As a traditional medicine, CRP has been extensively used in the clinical treatment of nausea, vomiting, cough and phlegm for thousands of years. It is mainly distributed in Guangdong, Sichuan, Fujian and Zhejiang in China. Due to its high frequency of use, many scholars have conducted a lot of research on it and the related chemical constituents it contains. In this review, the research progress on phytochemistry, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics and toxicology of CRP are summarized. AIM OF THE REVIEW The review aims to sort out the methods of extraction and purification, pharmacological activities and mechanisms of action, pharmacokinetics and toxicology of the chemical constituents in CRP, in order to elaborate the future research directions and challenges for the study of CRP and related chemical constituents. MATERIALS AND METHODS Valid and comprehensive relevant information was collected from China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Web of Science, PubMed and so on. RESULTS CRP contains a variety of compounds, of which terpenes, flavonoids and alkaloids are the main components, and they are also the primary bioactive components that play a pharmacological role. Flavonoids and terpenes are extracted and purified by aqueous and alcoholic extraction methods, assisted by ultrasonic and microwave extraction, in order to achieve higher yields with less resources. Pharmacological studies have shown that CRP possesses a variety of highly active chemical components and a wide range of pharmacological activities, including anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, hepatoprotective, therapeutic for cardiovascular-related disorders, antioxidant, antibacterial, and neuroprotective effects. CONCLUSIONS There is a diversity in the chemical compositions of CRP, which have multiple biological activities and promising applications. However, the pharmacological activities of CRP are mainly dependent on the action of its chemical components, but the relationship between the structure of chemical components and the biological effects has not been thoroughly investigated, and therefore, the structure-activity relationship is an issue that needs to be elucidated urgently. In addition, the pharmacokinetic studies of the relevant components can be further deepened and the correlation studies between pharmacological effects and syndromes of TCM can be expanded to ensure the effectiveness and rationality of CRP for human use.

Abstract
A number of new biologically interesting fluorinated 2-arylchroman-4-ones and their 3-arylidene derivatives were synthesized based on the p-toluenesulfonic acid-catalyzed one-pot reaction of 2-hydroxyacetophenones with benzaldehydes. It was found that obtained (E)-3-arylidene-2-aryl-chroman-4-ones reacted with malononitrile under base conditions to form 4,5-diaryl-4H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]chromenes. The structures of the synthesized fluorinated compounds were confirmed by 1H, 19F, and 13C NMR spectral data, and for some representatives of heterocycles also using NOESY spectra and X-ray diffraction analysis. A large series of obtained flavanone derivatives as well as products of their modification (35 examples) containing from 1 to 12 fluorine atoms in the structure was tested in vitro for cytotoxicity in MDCK cell line and for antiviral activity against influenza A virus. Among the studied heterocycles 6,8-difluoro-2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)chroman-4-one (IC50 = 6 μM, SI = 150) exhibited the greatest activity against influenza A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1) virus. Moreover, this compound appeared active against phylogenetically distinct influenza viruses, A(H5N2) and influenza B (SI's of 53 and 42, correspondingly). The data obtained suggest that the fluorinated derivatives of 2-arylchroman-4-ones are prospective scaffolds for further development of potent anti-influenza antivirals.

Drug Des Devel Ther 2023; 17:3589-3604. [PMID: 38076631 PMCID: PMC10700044 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s433591] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Linarin has been implicated in the inhibition of inflammatory responses and hepatoprotective effects. However, the precise mechanism by which Linarin integrates injury-induced signaling from inflammatory responses and oxidative stress remains unclear. Methods We evaluated the role of Linarin in a mouse model of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced acute liver injury. Mice were orally pretreated with Linarin or vehicle for seven consecutive days, followed by intraperitoneal injection with 0.2% (v/v) CCl4. To investigate the mechanism of action on oxidative stress, CCl4-stimulated HepG2 cells were utilized. Results Our results revealed Linarin remarkably attenuated the loss of hepatic architecture, inflammatory cell infiltration, serum transaminases, and pro-inflammatory cytokines induced by CCl4. Linarin attenuated CCl4-induced oxidative stress by increasing the expression of cytosolic Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2), inducing nuclear localization of Nrf2, and increasing stress-induced protein heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). Additionally, Linarin decreased the expression of toll-like receptors (TLR)-4, and its downstream proteins, MyD88, IRAK1, and TRAF6. Furthermore, Linarin reversed CCl4-induced phosphorylation of ERK, p38, and JNK. Importantly, Linarin increased the expression of both LC3II and Beclin 1, which are hallmarks of autophagic flux. Autophagy-mediated hepatoprotective effects in Linarin-treated HepG2 cells were mitigated by the autophagy inhibitor 3-MA. However, combined treatment of Linarin with 3-MA failed to significantly reverse cell apoptosis and the production of transaminases and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Conclusion Linarin prevents acute liver injury, possibly by alleviating ROS-induced oxidative stress, inhibiting TLR4/MyD88 and JNK/p38/ERK-mediated inflammatory responses, and promoting Beclin 1/LC3II-mediated autophagic flux.

Abstract
There is growing interest in reducing the number of synthetic products or additives and replacing them with natural ones. The pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries are especially focused on natural and bioactive chemicals isolated from plants or microorganisms. The main challenge here is to develop efficient and ecological methods for their isolation. According to the strategies and rules of sustainable development and green chemistry, green solvents and environmentally friendly technologies must be used. The application of deep eutectic solvents as efficient and biodegradable solvents seems to be a promising alternative to traditional methods. They are classified as being green and ecological but, most importantly, very efficient extraction media compared to organic solvents. The aim of this review is to present the recent findings on green extraction, as well as the biological activities and the possible applications of natural plant ingredients, namely, phenolics, flavonoids, terpenes, saponins, and some others. This paper thoroughly reviews modern, ecological, and efficient extraction methods with the use of deep eutectic solvents (DESs). The newest findings, as well as the factors influencing the efficiency of extraction, such as water content, and hydrogen bond donor and acceptor types, as well as the extraction systems, are also discussed. New solutions to the major problem of separating DESs from the extract and for solvent recycling are also presented.

A Linarin Derivative Protects against Ischemia-Induced Neuronal Injury in Mice by Promoting Cerebral Blood Flow Recovery via KDELR-Dependent CSPG4 Activation. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:6434086.

Abstract
The cerebral ischemic microvascular response and collateral circulation compensatory capacity are important for the outcome of ischemic stroke. Here, we sought to evaluate the effect of a linarin derivate 4′-benzylapigenin-7-β-rutinoside (BLR) on neurological function and cerebral blood flow restoration in ischemic stroke. A mouse model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (30 min) with reperfusion (24 h) was used to mimic ischemic stroke in vivo, and 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assays, and immunofluorescence microscopy were used to assess the protective effects of BLR on infarct volume, neurological function, neuronal apoptosis, and inflammatory damage. Cerebral blood flow was assayed by laser speckle contrast imaging. Double immunostaining of GFAP-collagen IV and brain lucidification were performed to determine the protective effects of BLR on the disruption of brain vasculature. Differential gene expression was assessed by RNA sequencing. Coimmunoprecipitation and western blotting were used to explore the mechanism of BLR-induced neuroprotection. The results of in vivo experiments showed that BLR administration after reperfusion onset reduced infarct volume, improved neurological function, and decreased the neural cell apoptosis and inflammatory response in the ischemic brain, which was accompanied by increased cerebral blood flow and reduced detachment of astrocyte endfeet from the capillary basement membrane. The RNA sequencing data showed that BLR promoted the upregulation of extracellular matrix and angiogenesis pathway-related genes; in particular, BLR significantly increased the expression of the chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4) gene, enhanced the membrane location of CSPG4, and promoted its downstream signaling protein expression, which is associated with KDEL receptor (KDELR) activation. In addition, activated KDELR further increased the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases after BLR treatment. Taken together, our data showed that BLR could protect against ischemic brain injury and may serve as a new promising therapeutic candidate drug for ischemic stroke, and that KDELR might act as both a sensor and effector to activate CSPG4 to increase cerebral blood flow.

Abstract
Many flavonoids, as eminent phenolic compounds, have been commercialized and consumed as dietary supplements due to their incredible human health benefits. In the present study, a bioactive flavone glycoside linarin (LN) was designated to comprehensively overview its phytochemical and biological properties. LN has been characterized abundantly in the Cirsium, Micromeria, and Buddleja species belonging to Asteraceae, Lamiaceae, and Scrophulariaceae families, respectively. Biological assessments exhibited promising activities of LN, particularly, the remedial effects on central nervous system (CNS) disorders, whereas the remarkable sleep enhancing and sedative effects as well as AChE (acetylcholinesterase) inhibitory activity were highlighted. Of note, LN has indicated promising anti osteoblast proliferation and differentiation, thus a bone formation effect. Further biological and pharmacological assessments of LN and its optimized semi-synthetic derivatives, specifically its therapeutic characteristics on osteoarthritis and osteoporosis, might lead to uncovering potential drug candidates.

Abstract
Saxifraga tangutica is widely used as a medicinal herb to treat hepatic diseases. Here, we developed a class separation method to separate gallic acid derivatives 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl inhibitors from the methanol extract of Saxifraga tangutica. Firstly, an MCI GEL CHP20P medium-pressure liquid chromatography was used to pretreat the crude extract from Saxifraga tangutica (500 g) and the target sample (fraction Fr1, 1.7 g) was obtained. Then, an online reversed-phase liquid chromatography-1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl assay was employed for recognizing potential 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl inhibitors and six 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl inhibitors fractions were recognized from fraction Fr1. Subsequently, the six 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl inhibitors fractions were isolated via a ReproSil-Pur C18 AQ preparative column. During the separation process, the hydrophilic liquid chromatography was used to enrich the target compounds (Fr1-3-1-1 and Fr1-3-1-2) from the fraction Fr1-3, which were hardly isolated only by one step reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Finally, six gallic acid derivatives were obtained and identified as gallic acid (Fr1-1-1), gallic acid 3-O-β-D-glucoside (Fr1-1-2), protocatechuic acid (Fr1-2), 4-O-galloyl-(-)-shikimic acid (Fr1-3-1-1), 5-O-galloyl-(-)-shikimic acid (Fr1-3-1-2), and 3-O-galloyl-shikimic acid (Fr1-4), respectively. Thus, the present study indicated that this method was highly efficient for the preparative separation of gallic acid derivatives 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl inhibitors from natural products.
