Abstract
Naturally occurring peroxides received great interest and attention from scientific research groups worldwide due to their structural diversity, versatile biological activities, and pharmaceutical properties. In the present review, we describe the historical discovery of natural peroxides from plants systematically and update the researchers with recently explored ones justifying their structural caterogrization and biological/pharmaceutical properties intensively. Till the end of 2023, 192 peroxy natural products from plants were documented herein for the first time implying most categories of natural scaffolds (e. g. terpenes, polyketides, phenolics and alkaloids). Numerically, the reported plants' peroxides have been classified into seventy-four hydro-peroxides, hundred seven endo-peroxides and eleven acyl-peroxides. Endo-peroxides (cyclic alkyl peroxides) are an important group due to their high variety of structural frameworks, and we have further divided them into "four-, five-, six and seven"-membered rings. Biosynthetically, a shedding light on the intricate mechanisms behind the formation of plant-derived peroxides are addressed as well.

Abstract
Hua-ju-hong (HJH) is a Chinese medicinal material obtained from Citrus grandis 'Tomentosa' (CGT) and Citrus grandis (L.) Osbeck (CG) with various commercial specifications. It is known for relieving cough and dispelling phlegm. To reveal the quality marker for distinguishing the various HJH, 215 batches of commercial HJH were studied systematically using multidimensional chemical analysis. Ten major components were identified by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry and quantified via high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detection. In this study, a rapid, efficient, and low-cost chromatographic method was established. Total coumarin-hemiterpene and total coumarin-monoterpene were first classified and analyzed in HJH. The result indicated that the main component, naringin, was not the quality marker for differentiating CGT from CG. For reflecting the unique medicinal and food value of HJH, coumarins should be the more potential quality markers. Flavonoids were the possible quality markers for distinguishing two growth stages of fruit-exocarp and young fruit. For the first time, two chemotypes of HJH were identified in CG. This study provides a convenient yet reliant chromatographic method and novel yet systematic strategies for overall quality control of commercial HJH.

Abstract
Demand for the exploration of botanical pesticides continues to increase due to the detrimental effects of synthetic chemicals on human health and the environment and the development of resistance by pests. Under the guidance of a bioactivity-guided approach and HSQC-based DeepSAT, 16 coumarin derivatives were discovered from the leaves of Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle, including seven undescribed monoterpenoid coumarins, three undescribed monoterpenoid phenylpropanoids, and two new coumarin derivatives. The structure and configurations of these compounds were established and validated via extensive spectroscopic analysis, acetonide analysis, and quantum chemical calculations. Biologically, 5 exhibited significant antifeedant activity toward the Plutella xylostella. Moreover, tyrosinase being closely related to the growth and development of larva, the inhibitory potentials of 5 against tyrosinase was evaluated in vitro and in silico. The bioactivity evaluation results highlight the prospect of 5 as a novel category of botanical insecticide.

Abstract
Leishmaniases are considered among the most neglected yet dangerous parasitic diseases worldwide. According to the recent WHO report (Weekly Epidemiological Record, Sep, 2021), 200 countries and territories reported leishmanises cases in 2020; of which 89 (45%) for CL, and 79 (40%) for VL were endemic. Indian subcontinent (India, Bangladesh and Nepal), one of the three eco-epidemiological hotspots of VL, currently reported 18% of the total cases of VL worldwide. Eastern Mediterranean region and the Region of the Americas together reported >90% of the new CL cases, of which >80% were from Afghanistan, Algeria, Brazil, Colombia, Iraq, Pakistan and the Syrian Arab Republic. While considering the current therapeutic options, conventional anti-leishmanial drugs have long been proved to be toxic and/or expensive and have resulted in extensive drug resistance in India. Recent searches for novel anti-leishmanial drugs have led to find out the prime cellular targets and metabolic pathways to bridge the gap between the known facts and unexplored data. Cutting edge knowledge based drug designing has simplified the search for novel molecules with leishmanicidal efficacy by identifying ligand-receptor interactions and has accelerated the cost effective primary discovery of molecules through computational validation against Leishmaniases. This review focuses on the limitations of conventional drugs, and discusses the chemotherapeutic potential of many novel natural and synthetic anti-leishmanial agents reported since the last decade. It is also interpreted that some of the reported molecules might be tested singly or as a part of combinatorial therapy on pre-clinical and clinical level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In a scenario of increased pathogens with multidrug resistance phenotypes, it is necessary to seek new pharmacological options. This fact is responsible for an increase in neoplasms and multiresistant parasitic diseases. In turn, snake venom-derived peptides exhibited cytotoxic action on fungal and bacterial strains, possibly presenting activities in resistant tumor cells and parasites. Therefore, the aim of this work is to verify an antitumor and antiparasitic activity of antimicrobial peptides derived from snake venom. METHODS For this purpose, searches were performed in the Pubmed, Embase and Virtual Health Library databases by combining the descriptors peptides, venom and snake with antitumor/ antiparasitic agent and in silico. The inclusion criteria: in vitro and in vivo experimental articles in addition to in silico studies. The exclusion criteria: articles that were out of scope, review articles, abstracts, and letters to the reader. Data extracted: peptide name, peptide sequence, semi-maximal inhibitory concentration, snake species, tumor lineage or parasitic strain, cytotoxicity, in vitro and in vivo activity. RESULTS In total 164 articles were found, of which 14 were used. A total of ten peptides with antiproliferative activity on tumor cells were identified. Among the articles, seven peptides addressed the antiparasitic activity. CONCLUSION In conclusion, snake venom-derived peptides can be considered as potential pharmacological options for parasites and tumors, however more studies are needed to prove their specific activity.

[PMID: 31771270 PMCID: PMC6930449 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24234278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2019] [Revised: 11/18/2019] [Accepted: 11/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Angiogenesis, the process of formation and recruitment of new blood vessels from pre-existing vessels, plays an important role in the development of cancer. Therefore, the use of antiangiogenic agents is one of the most critical strategies for the treatment of cancer. In addition, the complexity of cancer pathogenicity raises the need for multi-targeting agents. Coumarins are multi-targeting natural agents belonging to the class of benzopyrones. Coumarins have several biological and pharmacological effects, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammation, anticoagulant, anxiolytic, analgesic, and anticancer properties. Several reports have shown that the anticancer effect of coumarins and their derivatives are mediated through targeting angiogenesis by modulating the functions of vascular endothelial growth factor as well as vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, which are involved in cancer pathogenesis. In the present review, we focus on the antiangiogenic effects of coumarins and related structure-activity relationships with particular emphasis on cancer.

Synergistic anti-colon cancer effect of glycyrol and butyrate is associated with the enhanced activation of caspase-3 and structural features of glycyrol. Food Chem Toxicol 2019; 136:110952. [PMID: 31712101 DOI: 10.1016/j.fct.2019.110952] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2019] [Revised: 10/21/2019] [Accepted: 11/05/2019] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Coumarin-based anti-cancer agents have attracted considerable attention recently. Butyrate, a major short-chain fatty acid produced in colon by gut microbiota, has been shown to exert anticancer activity both in vitro and in vivo. In this study, we evaluated the anti-cancer effect of combining glycyrol (GC), a representative of coumarin compounds in licorice, or its analogues Glycycoumarin/Demethylsuberosin/Coumestrol (GCM/De/Coum) with butyrate in HT29 and HCT116 cells, and explored the relationship between the combined anti-cancer effect and structural features of coumarin compounds. Results showed the strongest inhibitory effect on cancer cells was induced by GC/butyrate combination via enhanced activation of caspase-3. Our data indicated the benzofuranyl, isopentenyl and methoxy groups presented in GC played critical role in its anti-cancer activity, while the furan group led to the further enhancement. The findings of the present study will be beneficial for developing coumarin-based compounds and coumarin compound-based regimen to fight against colon cancer.

Abstract
Natural coumarins and their derivatives isolated from various plants or microorganisms have inherent antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and anticancer properties among many biological activities. Some of these coumarins and their derivatives lead to self-programmed cancer cell death (apoptosis) via different mechanisms, which will be discussed. The link between bacterial and viral infections to cancer compels us to highlight fascinating reports from coumarin isolation from microorganisms; comment on the recent bioavailability studies of natural or derived coumarins; and discuss our perspectives with respect to bioisosterism in coumarins, p-glycoprotein inhibition and covalent modification, and bioprobes. Overall, this review hopes to stimulate and offer in particular medicinal chemists and the reader in general an outlook on natural coumarins and their derivatives with potential for cancer therapy.

[PMID: 29203099 DOI: 10.1016/j.apjtm.2017.10.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2017] [Revised: 08/23/2017] [Accepted: 09/27/2017] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of friedelin (terpenoid) and 8-hydroxyisocapnolactone-2-3-diol (coumarin) with concentration 10 μM, 30 μM, and 100 μM on inhibiting mast cells (MCs) degranulation. METHODS The investigation was performed in vitro by administering each compound into rat peritoneal MCs and rat basophilic leukemia-2H3 cells followed by activation with 50 μg/mL of compound 48/80 or 1 μM of ionomycin. The concentration of histamine released from each group was measured by a high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorometry system with post-column derivatization using o-phthalaldehyde. RESULTS 8-Hydroxyisocapnolactone-2-3-diol inhibited degranulation of compound 48/80 activated-rat peritoneal MCs with the histamine release percentages of 74.57%, 72.21% and 51.79% when the 10 μM, 30 μM and 100 μM concentrations were used, respectively. Where as about 81% histamine was released by the control group. Degranulation inhibition ability was also observed in ionomycin-activated rat basophilic leukemia-2H3 cells. In contrast, friedelin failed to inhibit degranulation in either cell type. The inhibition of 8-hydroxyisocapnolactone-2-3-diol was not related to the depletion of histamine synthesis as implied by the total histamine measurement. CONCLUSIONS These results exhibit the promising of 8-hydroxyisocapnolactone-2-3-diol is a potential parent structure for developing a MCs stabilizer.
