Food Chem 2024; 455:139921. [PMID: 38843718 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139921] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024]
Abstract
The pharmaceutical and nutraceutical potentials of whole fruit, pulp and seeds of Rosa pimpinellifolia L. were evaluated. Forty-two phenolic compounds and two triterpenoids were identified in extracts by LC-MS/MS and GC-MS, respectively. The most prominent compounds were ellagic acid, catechin, epicatechin, tannic acid, quercetin, oleanolic acid, and ursolic acid. The highest enzyme inhibitory activities of the extracts (94.83%) were obtained against angiotensin-converting enzyme and were almost equal to those of the commercial standard (lisinopril, 98.99%). Whole fruit and pulp extracts (IC50:2.47 and 1.52 μg DW/mL) exhibited higher antioxidant capacity than the standards (α-tocopherol, IC50:9.89 μg DW/mL). The highest antibacterial activity was obtained against Bacillus cereus (MIC: 256 μg/mL) for the whole fruit extract. Correlation analyses were conducted to find the correlation between individual phenolics and enzyme inhibitory activities. The results showed the remarkable future of not only the edible part but also the seeds of black rose hips in phytochemical and functional aspects.

CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 356:141976. [PMID: 38608773 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141976] [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: 10/08/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
Effect-directed analysis (EDA) has been increasingly used for screening toxic contaminants in the environment, but conventional EDA procedures are often time-consuming and labor-extensive. This challenges the use of EDA for toxicant identification in the scenarios when quick answers are demanded. Herein, a solid phase microextraction ligand fishing (SPME-LF) strategy has been proposed as a rapid EDA approach for identifying acetylcholinesterase (AChE) active compounds in water. The feasibility of ligand fishing techniques for screening AChE active chemicals from environmental mixtures was first verified by a membrane separation method. Then, SPME fibers were prepared through self-assembly of boronic acid groups with AChE via co-bonding and applied for SPME-LF. As AChE coated SPME fibers selectively enriched AChE-active compounds from water, comparing sorbing compounds by the SPME fibers with and without AChE coating can quickly distinguish AChE toxicants in mixtures. Compared with conventional EDA, SPME-LF does not require repeating sample separations and bioassays, endowing SPME-LF with the merits of low-cost, labor-saving, and user-friendly. It is believed that cost-efficient and easy-to-use SPME-LF strategy can potentially be a rapid EDA method for screening receptor-specific toxicants in aquatic environment, especially applicable in time-sensitive screening.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Tyrosinase, the key rate-limiting enzyme for melanogenesis, is one of the main targets for skin senescence and some pigmented skin diseases, such as albinism and melanoma. Tyrosinase inhibitors are capable of reducing melanin generation and deposition in the skin through blocking the reaction chain of formation. Thus, it has been used for anti-melanoma and showed the potential to be developed into novel skin whitening and spot removing products. With the trend of back-to-nature, natural tyrosinase inhibitors are receiving more and more attention. Traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) as the promising source of novel chemotypes and pharmacophores, are huge treasures for the discovery of natural tyrosinase inhibitors characterized with green, safe, and highly efficient. AIM OF THIS REVIEW This review aims to provide a systematic overview of natural tyrosinase inhibitors and a detailed summary of the types of TCMs from which they originate. In addition, this paper also highlights the screening methods developed for exploring tyrosinase inhibitors in recent years, compares the advantages and disadvantages of various methods under the guidance of different screening principles, and predicts their applications in the future. MATERIALS AND METHODS Relevant literature have been obtained using the keywords "tyrosinase inhibitors", "traditional Chinese medicines", "whitening", and "screening" in scientific databases, such as "PubMed", "SciFinder", "Web of Science", "Elsevier", "China Knowledge Resource Integrated databases". Information was also collected from Chinese pharmacopoeia, Chinese herbal classics books, "Google Scholar", "Baidu Scholar", and other literature sources, etc. RESULTS: An overview about the tyrosinase inhibitors derived from TCMs since 2002 has been compiled via the above-mentioned sources. Up to now, 186 components, mainly belonging to flavonoids, lignans, terpenoids, Diels-Alder adducts, simple phenylpropanoids and stilbenes, from 61 kinds of TCMs have been reported to possess tyrosinase inhibitory activity, among which flavonoids are mainly focused on. Furthermore, on the basis of bioactive detection strategies, the screening methods for tyrosinase inhibitors have been classified into bioaffinity-based, intrinsic enzymatic-based, and computer-aided drug design (CADD). Precisely because screening approaches are essential for rapid identification of tyrosinase inhibitors from TCMs, the principles, advantages and disadvantages, and specific applications of each method are presented along with a comparison of applicability. CONCLUSIONS The summary of TCMs-derived inhibitors gives a clue on the discovery of candidates with the property to whiten the skin. Meanwhile, the outlook of developed screening methods provides technical references for the efficient exploration of safer and more effective tyrosinase inhibitors from TCMs.

Abstract
In this study, a ligand fishing technique based on magnetic mesoporous silicon was established and used to screen α-glucosidase inhibitors from Pueraria lobata. To clarify quantity-activity relationships in a holistic view, the knock-out/knock-in technology was used to analyse the interactions of several active constituents in P. lobata. Magnetic mesoporous silicon with a large specific surface area and better biocompatibility was synthesised. Subsequently, α-glucosidase was immobilised on -NH2-modified magnetic mesoporous silicon, and the compounds in the crude extract of P. lobata were screened across enzyme binding. The structures of the ligands were elucidated using UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS, and their activities were verified by knock-out/knock-in experiments and molecular docking. Daidzein and puerarin showed α-glucosidase inhibitory activities with an IC50 of 0.088 ± 0.003 mg mL-1 and 0.414 ± 0.005 mg mL-1, respectively. Among them, puerarin, which accounted for more than 40% of the total content, showed synergistic effects with other components and was the main contributor to the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of P. lobata.

Abstract
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world and its incidence is expected to increase with the aging of the world's population and globalization of risk factors. Natural products and their derivatives have provided a significant number of approved anticancer drugs and the development of robust and selective screening assays for the identification of lead anticancer natural products are essential in the challenge of developing personalized targeted therapies tailored to the genetic and molecular characteristics of tumors. To this end, a ligand fishing assay is a remarkable tool to rapidly and rigorously screen complex matrices, such as plant extracts, for the isolation and identification of specific ligands that bind to relevant pharmacological targets. In this paper, we review the application of ligand fishing with cancer-related targets to screen natural product extracts for the isolation and identification of selective ligands. We provide critical analysis of the system configurations, targets, and key phytochemical classes related to the field of anticancer research. Based on the data collected, ligand fishing emerges as a robust and powerful screening system for the rapid discovery of new anticancer drugs from natural resources. It is currently an underexplored strategy according to its considerable potential.

Isolation of Mirificin and Other Bioactive Isoflavone Glycosides from the Kudzu Root Lyophilisate Using Centrifugal Partition and Flash Chromatographic Techniques. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27196227.

Abstract
Pueraria lobata (Willd.) Ohwi is a legume taxon native to Southeast Asia and widely used in traditional medicine systems of that region. The therapeutic applications of the underground parts of this species (known as kudzu root) are related to its high content of isoflavones, mainly the characteristic C-glycoside derivatives. Within this group, the most explored compound both phytochemically and pharmacologically is puerarin. However, current scientific findings document important anti-biodegenerative effects for some of the minor isoflavones from kudzu roots. Therefore, the main objective of the study was to develop an original preparative method that allowed the efficient isolation of closely related hydrophilic daidzein C-glycosides, including mirificin, from vacuum-dried aqueous-ethanolic extracts of kudzu roots. For this purpose, the combined centrifugal partition (CPC) and flash chromatographic (FC) techniques were elaborated and used. The optimized biphasic solvent system in CPC, with ethyl acetate, ethanol, water, and 0.5% (V/V) acetic acid as a mobile phase modifier, enabled the purification and separation of the polar fraction containing bioactive isoflavones and ultimately the isolation of mirificin, 3′-hydroxy- and 3′-methoxypuerarin, puerarin, and daidzin using FC. The identity of isoflavones was confirmed using spectroscopic (UV absorption and nuclear magnetic resonance) and mass spectrometric methods. The determined purity of isolated mirificin was 63%.

The Influence of Different Extraction Techniques on the Chemical Profile and Biological Properties of Oroxylum indicum: Multifunctional Aspects for Potential Pharmaceutical Applications. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:8975320.

Abstract
Oroxylum indicum (L.) Kurz (Bignoniaceae), a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, possesses various biological activities including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anticancer. In order to guide the practical application of O. indicum in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries, we evaluated the effects of five different extraction techniques (maceration extraction (ME), oxhlet extraction (SOXE), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), tissue-smashing extraction (TSE), and accelerated-solvent extraction (ASE)) with 70% ethanol as the solvent on the phytochemical properties and biological potential. The UHPLC-DAD Orbitrap Elite MS technique was applied to characterize the main flavonoids in the extracts. Simultaneously, the antioxidant and enzyme inhibitory activities of the tested extracts were analyzed. SOXE extract showed the highest total phenolic content (TPC, 50.99 ± 1.78 mg GAE/g extract), while ASE extract displayed the highest total flavonoid content (TFC, 34.92 ± 0.38 mg RE/g extract), which displayed significant correlation with antioxidant activity. The extract obtained using UAE was the most potent inhibitor of tyrosinase (IC50: 16.57 ± 0.53 mg·mL−1), while SOXE extract showed the highest activity against α-glucosidase (IC50: 1.23 ± 0.09 mg·mL−1), succeeded by UAE, ME, ASE, and TSE extract. In addition, multivariate analysis suggested that different extraction techniques could significantly affect the phytochemical properties and biological activities of O. indicum. To sum up, O. indicum displayed expected biological potential and the data collected in this study could provide an experimental basis for further investigation in practical applications.

Abstract
A simple and rapid method for screening of tyrosinase (TYR) inhibitors present in traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) was developed by combining ligand fishing and the fluorescent enzymatic assay based on dopamine-functionalized carbon quantum dots (CQDs-Dopa). Ligands of the enzyme present in the TCM extractions were firstly adsorbed on the enzyme-modified magnetic beads, and then the beads were magnetically separated and subjected directly to the CQDs-Dopa-based fluorescent assay. Finally, compounds were desorbed from the "active" beads and identified with ultra-performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. A known natural TYR inhibitor quercetin was selected to assess the feasibility and quantification performance of this method, and good linearity in the range of 0.01-0.16 mM (R2 = 0.992) with a low detection limit of 0.004 mM was obtained. This method was then applied to screen TYR inhibitors present in Scutellaria baicalensis and Sophora flavescens. Six TYR inhibitors including baicalin (1), baicalein (2), wogonin (3), oroxylin A (4), kurarinone (5), and sophoraflavanone G (6) were found, among which 1-4 were firstly discovered in this work. This is the first report on the in situ assessment of the target compounds obtained by ligand fishing in the form of a mixture, which exhibited the combined advantages of specific extraction ability of ligand fishing and the high sensitivity of CQDs-based fluorescent assay, showing great potential for fast screening of enzyme inhibitors from TCMs.

Abstract
Tyrosinase (TYR) inhibitors are in great demand in the food, cosmetic and medical industrials due to their important roles. Therefore, the discovery of high-quality TYR inhibitors is always pursued. Natural products as one of the most important sources of bioactive compounds discovery have been increasingly used for TYR inhibitors screening. However, due to their complex compositions, it is still a great challenge to rapid screening and identification of biologically active components from them. In recent years, with the help of separation technologies and the affinity and intrinsic activity of target enzymes, two advanced approaches including affinity screening and inhibition profiling showed great promises for a successful screening of bioactive compounds from natural sources. This review summarises the recent progress of separation-based methods for TYR inhibitors screening, with an emphasis on the principle, application, advantage, and drawback of each method along with perspectives in the future development of these screening techniques and screened hit compounds.

Abstract
In this study, a polydopamine (PDA)-modified hollow fiber-immobilized xanthine oxidase (XOD) was prepared for screening potential XOD inhibitors from flavonoids. Several parameters for the preparation of PDA-modified hollow fiber-immobilized XOD, including the dopamine concentration, modification time, XOD concentration and immobilization time, were optimized. The results show that the optimal conditions for immobilized XOD activity were a dopamine concentration of 2.0 mg/mL in 10.0 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.5), a modification time of 3.0 h, an XOD concentration of 1000 μg/mL in 10.0 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.5) and an immobilization time of 3.0 h. Subsequently, the enzymatic reaction conditions such as the pH value and temperature were investigated, and the enzyme kinetics and inhibition parameters were determined. The results indicate that the optimal pH value (7.5) and temperature (37 °C) of the PDA-modified hollow fiber-immobilized XOD were consistent with the free enzyme. Moreover, the PDA-modified hollow fiber-immobilized XOD could still maintain above 50% of its initial immobilized enzyme activity after seven consecutive cycles. The Michaelis–Menten constant (Km) and the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of allopurinol on the immobilized XOD were determined as 0.25 mM and 23.2 μM, respectively. Furthermore, the PDA-modified hollow fiber-immobilized XOD was successfully applied to evaluate the inhibitory activity of eight flavonoids. Quercetin, apigenin, puerarin and epigallocatechin showed a good inhibition effect, and their percentages of inhibition were (79.86 ± 3.50)%, (80.98 ± 0.64)%, (61.15 ± 6.26)% and (54.92 ± 0.41)%, respectively. Finally, molecular docking analysis further verified that these four active compounds could bind to the amino acid residues in the XOD active site. In summary, the PDA-modified hollow fiber-immobilized XOD is an efficient method for the primary screening of XOD inhibitors from natural products.
