Phytochemical Analysis, Biological Activities, and Molecular Docking Studies of Root Extracts from Paeonia Species in Serbia. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2024; 17:518. [PMID: 38675478 PMCID: PMC11054981 DOI: 10.3390/ph17040518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Without being aware of their chemical composition, many cultures have used herbaceous peony roots for medicinal purposes. Modern phytopreparations intended for use in human therapy require specific knowledge about the chemistry of peony roots and their biological activities. In this study, ethanol-water extracts were prepared by maceration and microwave- and ultrasound-assisted extractions (MAE and UAE, respectively) in order to obtain bioactive molecules from the roots of Paeonia tenuifolia L., Paeonia peregrina Mill., and Paeonia officinalis L. wild growing in Serbia. Chemical characterization; polyphenol and flavonoid content; antioxidant, multianti-enzymatic, and antibacterial activities of extracts; and in vitro gastrointestinal digestion (GID) of hot water extracts were performed. The strongest anti-cholinesterase activity was observed in PT extracts. The highest anti-ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) radical potential was observed in PP extracts, whereas against DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radicals), the best results were achieved with PO extracts. Regarding antibacterial activity, extracts were strongly potent against Bacillus cereus. A molecular docking simulation was conducted to gather insights into the binding affinity and interactions of polyphenols and other Paeonia-specific molecules in the active sites of tested enzymes. In vitro GID of Paeonia teas showed a different recovery and behavior of the individual bioactives, with an increased recovery of methyl gallate and digallate and a decreased recovery of paeoniflorin and its derivatives. PT (Gulenovci) and PP (Pirot) extracts obtained by UAE and M were more efficient in the majority of the bioactivity assays. This study represents an initial step toward the possible application of Paeonia root extracts in pharmacy, medicine, and food technologies.

Abstract
Our previous study demonstrated that paeoveitol D, a benzofuran compound isolated from Paeonia veitchii, displayed activity on MT1 and MT2 receptors with agonistic ratios of 57.5% and 51.6% at a concentration of 1 mM. To explore the structure-activity relationships, 34 paeoveitol D derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their MT1 and MT2 agonistic activities using the Fluo-8 calcium assay. Among them, 16 and 18 derivatives increased agonistic activities on the MT1 and MT2 receptors, respectively. Compound 18 indicated EC50 values of 21.0 and 298.9 μM on MT1 and MT2 receptors in agonistic dose response curves with Tango assays and shortened immobility time in the forced swim test. The preliminary mechanism-of-action investigation manifested that the antidepressant activity of compound 18 may be mediated by promoting serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA) levels in the mice brain. Compound 18 also showed favorable pharmacokinetic profiles and low toxicity in vivo. These results suggest that compound 18 could be a potential antidepressant agent.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2021; 269:113708. [PMID: 33346027 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2020.113708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2020] [Revised: 12/09/2020] [Accepted: 12/15/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Paeonia, which comprises approximately 52 shrubs or herbaceous perennials around the world, is the only genus of the Paeoniaceae and is pervasively distributed in Asia, southern Europe, and North America. Many species of the genus Paeonia have been used for centuries in ethnomedical medical systems. AIM OF THE REVIEW The present study aims to summarize the traditional uses, clinical applications, and toxicology of the genus Paeonia, to critically evaluate the state-of-the-art phytochemical and pharmacological studies of this genus published between 2011 and 2020, and to suggest directions for further in-depth research on Paeonia medicinal resources. MATERIALS AND METHODS Popular and widely used databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct, and Google Scholar were searched using the various search strings; from these searches, a number of citations related to the traditional uses, phytochemistry, biological activities, clinical application, and toxicology of the genus Paeonia were retrieved. RESULTS The use of 21 species, 2 subspecies, and 7 varieties of the genus Paeonia as traditional herbal remedies has been reported, and many ethnomedicinal uses, such as the treatment of hematemesis, blood stasis, dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, epilepsy, spasms, and gastritis, have been recorded. The roots and root bark are the most frequently reported parts of the plants used in medicinal applications. In phytochemical investigations, 451 compounds have been isolated from Paeonia plants to date, which contains monoterpenoid glucosides, flavonoids, tannins, stilbenes, triterpenoids and steroids, and phenols. Studies of their pharmacological activities have revealed the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumour, antibacterial, antiviral, cardiovascular protective, and neuroprotective properties of the genus Paeonia. In particular, some bioactive extracts and compounds (total glucosides of peony (TGP), paeonol, and paeoniflorin) have been used as therapeutic drugs or tested in clinical trials. In addition to the "incompatibility" of the combined use of "shaoyao" and Veratrum nigrum L. roots in traditional Chinese medicine theory, Paeonia was considered to have no obvious toxicity based on the available toxicological tests. CONCLUSION A large number of phytochemical and pharmacological reports have indicated that Paeonia is an important medicinal herb resource, and some of its traditional uses including the treatment of inflammation and cardiovascular diseases and its use as a neuroprotective agent, have been partially confirmed through modern pharmacological studies. Monoterpenoid glucosides are the main active constituents. Although many compounds have been isolated from Paeonia plants, the biological activities of only a few of these compounds (paeoniflorin, paeonol, and TGP) have been extensively investigated. Some paeoniflorin structural analogues and resveratrol oligomers have been preliminarily studied. With the exception of several species (P. suffruticosa, P. ostii, P. lactiflora, and P. emodi) that are commonly used in folk medicine, many medicinal species within the genus do not receive adequate attention. Conducting phytochemical and pharmacological experiments on these species can provide new clues that may lead to the discovery of medicinal resources. It is necessary to identify the effective phytoconstituents of crude extracts of Paeonia that displayed pharmacological activities by bioactivity-guided isolation. In addition, comprehensive plant quality control, and toxicology and pharmacokinetic studies are needed in the future studies.

Abstract
Gastrodia elata is a famous traditional Chinese herb with medicinal and edible application. In this study, nine polybenzyls (1-9), including six new ones (2-5, 7 and 9), were isolated from the EtOAc extract of G. elata. Five compounds 1, 3, 4, 6 and 8 were found to activate melatonin receptors. Especially, compound 1 showed agonistic effects on MT1 and MT2 receptors with EC50 values of 237 and 244 μM. For better understanding their structure-activity relationships (SARs), ten polybenzyl analogs were further synthesized and assayed for their activities on melatonin receptors. Preliminary SARs study suggested that two para-hydroxy groups were the key pharmacophore for maintaining activity. Molecular docking simulations verified that compound 1 could strongly interact with MT2 receptor by bonding to Phe 118, Gly 121, His 208, Try 294 and Ala 297 residues.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Mallotus conspurcatus croizat (Euphorbiaceae), a plant native to Jinxiu in Guangxi, is popularly used in folk medicine to treat pelvic inflammatory disease. The anti-inflammatory activities of the compounds obtained from M. conspurcatus root were evaluated in this study. AIM OF THE STUDY This study explored the major anti-inflammatory components of this plant. MATERIALS AND METHODS The ethyl acetate fraction of the ethanol extract from M. conspurcatus was separated using chromatographic techniques. The structures of the isolates were elucidated from NMR, MS and X-ray data as well as from ECD. The anti-inflammatory activities of the isolates from M. conspurcatus were evaluated using LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cell models. The production of NO, TNF-α and PGE-2 was determined by ELISA and Griess tests. The expression levels of COX-2, NF-κB/p65 and iNOS were measured by western blotting. RESULTS Two new diterpenoids, malloconspur A (1) and malloconspur B (2), and sixteen known terpenoids (3-18) were identified by comprehensive spectroscopic analyses and comparison with literature data. Malloconspur B (2) and 17-hydroxycleistantha-12,15-dien-3-one (3) substantially inhibited the release of NO with IC50 values of 10.47 μM and 9.32 μM, respectively. Compounds 1, 2 and 3 markedly decreased the secretion of PGE2 and TNF-α (P < 0.01) by LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. Compounds 2 and 3 markedly decreased iNOS, NF-κB/p65 and COX-2 protein expression. CONCLUSIONS Our identification of these diterpenoids provides strong evidence for the use of M. conspurcatus among the Yao people as a medicinal plant for the treatment of inflammation. The dramatic differences in the chemical structures of the active diterpenoids of this plant from those on the market suggest these compounds have potential as anti-inflammatory lead compounds for follow-up research.

Abstract
Four new monoterpenoid glycosides 1-4, named magnoliaterpenoid A-D, were isolated from a 50% aqueous acetone extract of flower buds of Magnolia biondii, along with one known compound, (1'R,3'S,5'R,8'S,2Z,4E)-dihydrophaseic acid 3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (5). Their structures and relative configuration were identified by extensive spectroscopic analysis (IR, UV, MS, 1D and 2D NMR). The aglycones of these four new compounds possess seven-membered rings systems, which are very rare. A plausible biosynthetic route for the four new compounds was proposed via the biogenetic isoprene rule. Compounds 1, 2, 3, and 4 showed no antimicrobial activity at the concentration range of 1.95-250 µg/mL.
