Overview of Ethnobotanical-Pharmacological Studies Carried Out on Medicinal Plants from the Serra da Estrela Natural Park: Focus on Their Antidiabetic Potential. Pharmaceutics 2024; 16:454. [PMID: 38675115 PMCID: PMC11054966 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics16040454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The Serra da Estrela Natural Park (NPSE) in Portugal stands out as a well-preserved region abundant in medicinal plants, particularly known for their pharmaceutical applications in diabetes prevention and treatment. This comprehensive review explores these plants' botanical diversity, traditional uses, pharmacological applications, and chemical composition. The NPSE boast a rich diversity with 138 medicinal plants across 55 families identified as traditionally and pharmacologically used against diabetes globally. Notably, the Asteraceae and Lamiaceae families are prevalent in antidiabetic applications. In vitro studies have revealed their significant inhibition of carbohydrate-metabolizing enzymes, and certain plant co-products regulate genes involved in carbohydrate metabolism and insulin secretion. In vivo trials have demonstrated antidiabetic effects, including glycaemia regulation, insulin secretion, antioxidant activity, and lipid profile modulation. Medicinal plants in NPSE exhibit various activities beyond antidiabetic, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anti-cancer, and more. Chemical analyses have identified over fifty compounds like phenolic acids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and polysaccharides responsible for their efficacy against diabetes. These findings underscore the potential of NPSE medicinal plants as antidiabetic candidates, urging further research to develop effective plant-based antidiabetic drugs, beverages, and supplements.

Abdulkareem AH, Alalwani AK, Ahmed MM, Al-Meani SAL, Al-Janaby MS, Al-Qaysi AMK, Edan AI, Lahij HF. Impact of Solidago virgaurea Extract on Biofilm Formation for ESBL- Pseudomonas aeruginosa: An In Vitro Model Study. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:1383. [PMID: 37895854 PMCID: PMC10609828 DOI: 10.3390/ph16101383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The increasing disparity between antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and the development of new antimicrobials continues to pose a significant global health concern. However, plant extracts have shown promise in combating this issue either through their inherent antimicrobial activity or by serving as potential reservoirs of effective antimicrobial compounds. These compounds have the ability to target pathogenic biofilms and inhibit the production of extended-spectrum β -lactamases (ESBLs). However, there is limited research available on the antibacterial properties of goldenrod extract. Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate the impact of S. virgaurea (SV) extract on the viability and ability to form biofilms of ESBL-Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa). A cross-sectional study was conducted from August 2022 to March 2023. The broth microdilution method was employed to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the (SV) extract. Subsequently, the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) was determined based on the MIC values obtained. The antibiotic susceptibility of bacteria was evaluated using the Kirby disk diffusion assay and an Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) card in conjunction with the Vitek-2 compact system. Biofilm formation was evaluated using Congo red and a 96-well Elisa plate, while the presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) was estimated by measuring the reduction of nitrocefin at a wavelength of 390 nm. In addition, treatment of biofilm and ESBL activity with SV extract using 96-well Elisa plate and nitrocefin hydrolyzing, respectively. The resistance rates of P. aeruginosa isolates to the tested antibiotics were as follows: Levofloxacin 33%, Ciprofloxacin 40%, Amikacin 49%, Meropenem 50%, Cefepime 70%, Ceftazidime 75%, Cefotaxime 85%, Piperacillin-Tazobactam 90%, Amoxiclav 97%, Ampicillin 99%, Ceftriaxone 100%. The prevalence of MDR-P. aeruginosa, XDR-P. aeruginosa, PDR-P. aeruginosa and non-MDR-PA were 40% (n = 40), 7% (n = 7), 3% (n = 3) and 50% (n = 50), respectively. From the GC-MS results, it was observed that the presence of Octadecane, Clioquinol, Glycerol tricaprylate, hexadecanoic acid, cis-13-octadecenoic acid, oleic acid and Propanamide were the major components in the Solidago extract. In the determination of plant crude extracts, the values ranged between 0.25 and 64 mg/mL against bacteria. The resulting activity of the extract showed a significant statistical relationship at a p-value ≤ 0.01 against ESBL production and biofilm formation in P. aeruginosa. The S. virgaurea extract exhibited effectiveness in inhibiting biofilm formation and combating P. aeruginosa strains that produce extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs).

Abstract
The diabetes-associated mortality rate is increasing annually, along with the severity of its accompanying disorders that impair human health. Worldwide, several medicinal plants are frequently urged for the management of diabetes. Reports are available on the use of medicinal plants by traditional healers for their blood-sugar-lowering effects, along with scientific evidence to support such claims. The Asteraceae family is one of the most diverse flowering plants, with about 1,690 genera and 32,000 species. Since ancient times, people have consumed various herbs of the Asteraceae family as food and employed them as medicine. Despite the wide variety of members within the family, most of them are rich in naturally occurring polysaccharides that possess potent prebiotic effects, which trigger their use as potential nutraceuticals. This review provides detailed information on the reported Asteraceae plants traditionally used as antidiabetic agents, with a major focus on the plants of this family that are known to exert antioxidant, hepatoprotective, vasodilation, and wound healing effects, which further action for the prevention of major diseases like cardiovascular disease (CVD), liver cirrhosis, and diabetes mellitus (DM). Moreover, this review highlights the potential of Asteraceae plants to counteract diabetic conditions when used as food and nutraceuticals. The information documented in this review article can serve as a pioneer for developing research initiatives directed at the exploration of Asteraceae and, at the forefront, the development of a botanical drug for the treatment of DM.

Abstract
Solidago rugosa is one of the goldenrod species native to North America but has sporadically naturalized as an alien plant in Europe. The investigation of the root and leaf ethanol extracts of the plant using a bioassay-guided process with an anti-Bacillus assay resulted in the isolation of two antimicrobial components. Structure elucidation was performed based on high-resolution tandem mass spectrometric and one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic analyses that revealed (-)-hardwickiic acid (Compound 1) and (-)-abietic acid (Compound 2). The isolates were evaluated for their antimicrobial properties against several plant pathogenic bacterial and fungal strains. Both compounds demonstrated an antibacterial effect, especially against Gram-positive bacterial strains (Bacillus spizizenii, Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis, and Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens) with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) between 1 and 5.1 µg/mL (5-20 times higher than that of the positive control gentamicin). In the used concentrations, minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) was reached only against the non-pathogen B. spizizenii. Besides their activity against Fusarium avenaceum, the highest antifungal activity was observed for Compound 1 against Bipolaris sorokiniana with an IC50 of 3.8 µg/mL.

Abstract
Ethyl acetate extracts of Tunisian Salvia aegyptiaca and S. verbenaca aerial parts and S. officinalis leaves were examined via bioanalytical profiling using high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) combined with nine bioactivity assays, namely antibacterial (Aliivibrio fischeri, Bacillus subtilis, and Rhodococcus fascians), antifungal (Bipolaris sorokiniana, and Fusarium avenaceum), radical scavenging (DPPH•), and enzyme inhibitory (α-glucosidase, acetylcholinesterase, and lipase) ones. The screening, using toluene - ethyl acetate - methanol 6:3:0.5 (V/V/V) as a mobile phase, revealed five bioactive zones (a-e) that were analyzed by HPTLC-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Zones b and c, observed exclusively in S. officinalis, were active in all assays except α-glucosidase, and only c inhibited F. avenaceum. Compounds in these zones were identified by HPLC-high resolution tandem MS (LC-HRMS/MS) as rosmanol/epi-rosmanol and methyl carnosate, respectively. In the bioactive zones a and e, corosolic/maslinic acid and ursolic/oleanolic acid isomer pairs were present, which could be identified in all three Salvia species after their HPTLC separation using pre-chromatographic derivatization with iodine and MS detection. The triterpenes inhibited B. subtilis and R. fascians bacteria and α-glucosidase enzyme. Linoleic and linolenic acids were detected in zone d, which showed strong lipase inhibition in all three sage species.

Abstract
Plants-based natural compounds are well-identified and recognized chemoprotective agents that can be used for primary and secondary cancer prevention, as they have proven efficacy and fewer side effects. In today's scenario, when cancer cases rapidly increase in developed and developing countries, the anti-cancerous plant-based compounds become highly imperative. Among others, the Asteraceae (Compositae) family's plants are rich in sesquiterpenoid lactones, a subclass of terpenoids with wide structural diversity, and offer unique anti-cancerous effects. These plants are utilized in folk medicine against numerous diseases worldwide. However, these plants are now a part of the modern medical system, with their sesquiterpenoid lactones researched extensively to find more effective and efficient cancer drug regimens. Given the evolving importance of sesquiterpenoid lactones for cancer research, this review comprehensively covers different domains in a spectrum of sesquiterpenoid lactones viz (i) Guaianolides (ii) Pseudoguaianolide (iii) Eudesmanolide (iv) Melampodinin A and (v) Germacrene, from important plants such as Cynara scolymus (globe artichoke), Arnica montana (wolf weeds), Spilanthes acmella, Taraxacum officinale, Melampodium, Solidago spp. The review, therefore, envisages being a helpful resource for the growth of plant-based anti-cancerous drug development.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation with Allium mongolicum Regel extracts on the 4-alkyl-branched fatty acid deposition and meat quality during storage. Small-tailed Han sheep were divided into four groups (n = 15) and fed for 75 days with a basal diet (CK), CK supplemented with A. mongolicum Regel powder (AMR), A. mongolicum Regel water-soluble extract (AWE), or A. mongolicum Regel ethanol-soluble extract (AFE). The results revealed that both AMR and AWE diets decreased the 4-alkyl-branched fatty acids content in longissimus thoracis. Diet × storage time interactions were observed for acid value (AV), peroxidase (POx), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N). Patterns of change for AV, POx, and GSH-Px over time leading to the interactions were not readily apparent and changes were more governed by main effects. Dietary supplementation with AMR and AWE increased the total antioxidant capacity, total superoxide dismutase, and inhibited total bacteria counts compared to those in the CK lambs. The AWE diet also decreased the yellowness and hue angle. Overall, A. mongolicum Regel and its extracts could be used as a source of natural bioactive compounds in the lambs' diet to extend the storage time of their meat.

Abstract
The present work introduces a high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC)-direct bioautography method using the Gram-positive plant pathogenic bacterium, Rhodococcus fascians. The screening and isolation procedure comprised of a non-targeted high-performance thin-layer chromatography-effect-directed analysis (HPTLC-EDA) against Bacillus subtilis, B. subtilis subsp. spizizenii, R. fascians, and Aliivibrio fischeri, a targeted HPTLC-mass spectrometry (MS), and bioassay-guided column chromatographic (preparative flash and semi-preparative HPLC) fractionation and purification. The developed new separation methods enabled the discovery of four bioactive cis-clerodane diterpenes, solidagoic acid H (1), solidagoic acid E (2), solidagoic acid I (3), and solidagoic acid F (4), in the n-hexane extract of giant goldenrod (Solidago gigantea Ait.) leaf for the first time. These compounds were identified by 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The initially used HPTLC method (chloroform - ethyl acetate - methanol 15:3:2, V/V/V) was changed (to n-hexane - isopropyl acetate - methanol - acetic acid 29:20:1:1, V/V/V/V) to achieve the separation of the closely related isomer pairs (1-2 and 3-4). Compounds 1 and 3 exhibited moderate antibacterial activity against the Gram-positive B. subtilis subsp. spizizenii and R. fascians bacterial strains in microdilution assays with half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values in the range of 32.3-64.4 µg/mL. The mass spectrometric fragmentation of the isolated compounds was interpreted and their previously published NMR assignments lacking certain resonances were completed.

Abstract
AbstractThirteen root extract samples of four goldenrod (Solidago) species present in Europe were investigated by hyphenated high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC). Only S. virgaurea is native, whereas S. gigantea, S. canadensis, and S. graminifolia have been introduced from North America. The bioactive zones in the Aliivibrio fischeri bioautogram were identified as polyacetylenes, labdane diterpenes, or clerodane diterpenes by HPTLC coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry, exploiting the two interfaces, heated electrospray ionization, and direct analysis in real time. Principal component analysis of the obtained bioprofiles enabled the discrimination of the Solidago species. Furthermore, chemometrics pointed to the discriminative components, the main bioactive markers of the species: Z,Z-matricaria ester from S. virgaurea, solidagenone from S. canadensis, solidagoic acid A, and a dialdehyde clerodane diterpene from S. gigantea, and Z-dehydromatricaria ester from S. graminifolia.

Root extracts of three goldenrods were screened for antimicrobial compounds. 2Z,8Z- and 2E,8Z-matricaria esters from European goldenrod (Solidago virgaurea) and E- and Z-dehydromatricaria esters from grass-leaved goldenrod (Solidago graminifolia) and first from showy goldenrod (Solidago speciosa) were identified by high-performance thin-layer chromatography combined with effect-directed analysis and high-resolution mass spectrometry or nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy after liquid chromatographic fractionation and isolation. Next to their antibacterial effects (against Bacillus subtilis, Aliivibrio fischeri, and Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola), they inhibited the crop pathogenic fungi Fusarium avenaceum and Bipolaris sorokiniana with half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) between 31 and 107 μg/mL. Benzyl 2-hydroxy-6-methoxybenzoate, for the first time found in showy goldenrod root, showed the strongest antifungal effect, with IC50 of 25-26 μg/mL for both fungal strains.

Abstract
Analytical methods used for quality control of plants and plant extracts are based on the identification and quantification of chemical markers to manage batch reproducibility and efficacy. The aim of this work was to assess the performance of a High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) method developed for quality control of industrial dry extracts of ribwort plantain (P. lanceolata L.), using 2,2-diphenyl 1-picrylhydrazyle (DPPH) effect directed chemical reaction for antioxidant activity of acteoside, a phenylethanoid glycoside commonly used as a marker for P. lanceolata L., and to demonstrate the applicability of the Life Cycle Management of Analytical Methods concept to quantitative HPTLC-DPPH methods. The first step was the determination of the Analytical Target Profile (ATP) and Target Measurement Uncertainty (TMU), taking into account the quality control requirements for such extracts and the detection method applicable range. Once the desired range was established, an evaluation of the calibration function was conducted using several calibration models. Due to the lack of reference samples, spiked samples were used to evaluate the accuracy of the method by means of Total Analytical Error (TAE) determination, using prediction intervals calculation for the selected calibration functions. Measurement Uncertainty (MU) was also estimated, allowing the final choice of the calibration function to be used for quality control, giving the most fit for purpose performance level in accordance with the product specifications. As Life Cycle Management of the method also includes its routine use, the Measurement Uncertainty was checked on spiked and unspiked extract samples with different dilution levels, in order to verify the accordance of results between spiked and unspiked samples and to prepare a replication strategy to be applied during the routine use of the method.

Abstract
Lipase inhibitors are an attractive class of hypolipidemic compounds, which inhibit the activity of human pancreatic lipase, thereby preventing the absorption of triglycerides in vivo. As a library of promising lead compounds for drug development, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has gained growing attention in quick discovery and identification of enzyme inhibitors of natural-origin. The purpose of this work was to discover unknown lipase inhibitors from Alisma orientale by the activity oriented analysis method thin-layer chromatography-bioautography, then use electrospray ionization mass spectrometry technology via the elution based TLC-MS interface to identify their structures. As a result, eleven natural lipase inhibitors from Alisma orientale extracts were identified based on molecular mass and fragment ions obtained by HPTLC-MS, and further confirmed by a series of complementary means including UV spectra, 1H NMR characteristic proton signals and polarity of compounds, eleven lipase inhibitors were tentatively assigned as triterpenoids: alisol B (m/z 495.50 [M + Na]+), alisol B 23-acetate (m/z 537.58 [M + Na]+), 11-deoxy-alisol B (m/z 479.50 [M + Na]+), 11-deoxy-alisol B 23-acetate (m/z 521.50 [M + Na]+), alisol A/epialisol A (m/z 513.50 [M + Na]+), 16-oxo-11-deoxy-alisol A (m/z 511.50 [M + Na]+), 16-oxo-alisol A (527.50 [M + Na] +), alisol C (m/z 509.58 [M + Na]+), alisol C 23-acetate (m/z 551.50 [M + Na]+), alisol M 23-acetate (m/z 567.50 [M + Na]+), and alismanol Q/neoalisol (m/z 493.42 [M + Na]+). The integrated approach is an efficient method for rapid screening lipase inhibitors from complex plant extracts and provides a reasonable and favorable basis for the identification and separation of other enzymatic system and other important compounds with therapeutic values.

Abstract
European goldenrod (Solidago virgaurea L.) has long been applied in traditional medicine and recommended in the prophylaxis of urinary tract infections (UTIs). However, research describing the antibacterial properties of goldenrod is very limited. Therefore, the aim of the study was to determine the effect of S. virgaurea extract on the survival and biofilm formation of uropathogenic Escherichia coli. The interactions between the goldenrod extract and antibiotics used in UTIs were established. The influence of the extract on the duration of the post-antibiotic effects (PAE) and post-antibiotic sub-MIC effects (PASME) of amikacin and ciprofloxacin were determined. Extract composition was analyzed using coupled UHPLC/MS and the spectrophotometric method. The survival of bacteria was established using the serial dilution assay. The crystal violet assay for biofilm quantification was also used. PAE and PASME were investigated using the viable count method. The obtained results indicate that S. virgaurea extract limits the survival of planktonic forms of bacteria and reduces 24-h biofilm. However, the combination of S. virgaurea extract with antibiotics weakens their antibacterial activity and shortens the duration of PAE and PASME. Therefore, when deciding to use a combination of S. virgaurea extract and amikacin/ciprofloxacin, it is necessary to take into account their antagonistic activity.

Abstract
Solidago virgaurea L. (European goldenrod, Woundwort), Asteraceae, is a familiar medicinal plant in Europe and other parts of the world, widely used and among the most researched species from its genus. The aerial parts of European goldenrod have long been used for urinary tract conditions and as an anti-inflammatory agent in the traditional medicine of different peoples. Its main chemical constituents are flavonoids (mainly derived from quercetin and kaempferol), C6-C1 and C6-C3 compounds, terpenes (mostly from the essential oil), and a large number of saponin molecules (mainly virgaureasaponins and solidagosaponins). Published research on its potential activities is critically reviewed here: antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, spasmolitic, antihypertensive, diuretic, antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasite, cytotoxic and antitumor, antimutagenic, antiadipogenic, antidiabetic, cardioprotective, and antisenescence. The evidence concerning its potential benefits is mainly derived from non-clinical studies, some effects are rather modest, whereas others are more promising, but need more confirmation in both non-clinical models and clinical trials.

Abstract
Giant goldenrod (Solidago gigantea Ait.) root extract was screened for bioactive compounds by high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC), coupled with effect-directed analysis including antibacterial (Bacillus subtilis F1276, B. subtilis subsp. spizizenii, Aliivibrio fischeri and Xanthomonas euvesicatoria), antifungal (Fusarium avenaceum) and enzyme inhibition (acetyl- and butyrylcholinesterases, α- and β-glucosidases and α-amylase) assays. Compounds of six multipotent zones (Sg1-Sg6) were characterized by HPTLC-heated electrospray ionization-high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and HPTLC-Direct Analysis in Real Time-HRMS. Apart from zone Sg3, containing three compounds, a single characteristic compound was detectable in each bioactive zone. The bioassay-guided isolation using preparative-scale flash chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography provided eight compounds that were identified by NMR spectroscopy as clerodane diterpenes. All isolates possessed inhibiting activity against at least one of the tested microorganisms.

Abstract
The scientific interest on the plant Cannabis sativa L., and in particular on its non-psychoactive or fibre-type variety (hemp), has been highly increasing in recent years, due to the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical potential of its bioactive compounds. This plant is indeed characterized by a very rich chemical composition, which encompasses different classes of constituents, such as cannabinoids and terpenes. In this context, the bioanalytical testing of hemp extracts can be difficult and time-consuming. Effect-directed analysis (EDA) by the combination of high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) with biological and enzymatic assays represents one of the latest tools available for the rapid bioprofiling of complex matrices, such as plant extracts. In this ambit, the aim of this project was the non-targeted screening of inflorescence extracts from ten different hemp varieties for components exhibiting radical scavenging, antibacterial, enzyme inhibiting and estrogen-like effects. By HPTLC-EDA, the hemp samples exhibited strong antibacterial activities against both Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis and especially Gram-negative Aliivibrio fischeri bacteria, and also estrogen-like activity. They also inhibited α- and β-glucosidase, tyrosinase and acetylcholinesterase. The characterization of two prominently multipotent bioactive compound zones was finally achieved by HPTLC-HRMS and preliminary assigned as cannabidiolic acid and cannabidivarinic acid.

Abstract
Microorganisms and plants can be important sources of many compounds with potential pharmaceutical applications. Extraction of these matrices is one of the ways of identifying the presence of inhibitory active substances against enzymes whose high activity leads to serious human diseases including cancer, Parkinson's or Crohn's diseases. The isolation and purification of inhibitors are time-consuming and expensive steps in the analysis of the crude extract and therefore, it is necessary to find a fast, efficient, and inexpensive method for screening extracts of interest. TLC-Bioautography combines the separation of the extract on a thin layer with its subsequent biological analysis. TLC-Bioautography methods have been developed for several classes of enzymes including oxidoreductases, hydrolases and isomerases, and there is a potential for developing functional methods for other classes of enzymes. This review summarizes known TLC-Bioautography methods and their applications for determining the presence of enzyme inhibitors in extracts and compares the effectiveness of different methodological approaches. It also indicates the current state and perspective of the development of TLC-Bioautography and its possible future applications.

Abstract
Food contact materials (FCM) may contain complex mixtures of estrogenic chemicals. A yeast estrogen screen performed on high performance thin-layer chromatography plates (planar-YES, P-YES) is promising for analysis of such mixtures, as it could allow for better elucidation of effects compared with established methods in microtiter plates. However, the P-YES has not been directly compared with established methods. We compared the performance of a microtiter plate YES (lyticase-YES, L-YES) to P-YES on silica gel HPTLC plates using 17β-estradiol (E2), 20 chemicals representative of migrants from plastic FCM, and three migrates of coated metal food cans. Effective doses (ED10, ED50) and estradiol equivalencies were calculated for each chemical. Thirteen chemicals had calculable EDs in the L-YES or P-YES, with average EDs 13-fold (range 0.63-36) more potent in P-YES than in the L-YES. Normalized to E2, the median estrogenicity was within 1.5-fold (0.43-8.8) between the assays. Therefore, P-YES was as or more sensitive than L-YES but potencies relative to E2 were comparable between assays. With chromatography, the P-YES detected estrogenicity in coated metal cans, effects that were unmeasurable in L-YES. With the sample preparation methods used in this study, both YES assays are sufficiently sensitive to detect bisphenol A below the specific migration limit for plastic packaging (0.05 mg/kg food). This study demonstrates that P-YES outperforms L-YES because it is more sensitive, provides comparable estradiol equivalents, and circumvents confounding mixture effects. The P-YES will be useful for routine monitoring of FCM and toxicant identification in problematic materials. Graphical abstract.

Thin-layer chromatographic quantification of magnolol and honokiol in dietary supplements and selected biological properties of these preparations. J Chromatogr A 2020; 1625:461230.

Abstract
Two isomeric biphenyl neolignans, magnolol and honokiol, are considered as constituents responsible for the healing effect of magnolia bark, a traditional Oriental medicine. To survey the increasing number of dietary supplements that contain magnolia bark or its extract, an affordable quantitative thin-layer chromatography (TLC) - densitometry method was developed. The methanol extracts were analyzed on the silica gel plates after manual sample application using n-hexane - ethyl acetate - ethanol (16:3:1, v/v/v) as a mobile phase. For quantitation, the chromatograms were scanned in the absorbance mode at the wavelength λ = 290 nm. The limits of detection and quantitation were 90 and 280 ng/zone for magnolol and 70 and 200 ng/zone for honokiol, respectively. None of the two targeted neolignans were detected in two of the six analyzed supplements. In the other four samples, the measured amounts were between 0.95-114.69 mg g-1 for magnolol and 4.88-84.86 mg g-1 for honokiol. Moreover, separations of these two neolignans on the TLC and high-performance TLC (HPTLC) layers were compared and HPTLC was combined with antioxidant (DPPH) and antibacterial (Bacillus subtilis and Aliivibrio fischeri) assays and mass spectrometry (MS), using the elution-based interface. Both magnolol and honokiol exhibited effects in all bioactivity assays. The HPTLC-MS tests confirmed purity of neolignan zones in the extracts of dietary supplements and supported tentative identification of the alkaloid piperine and the isoflavone daidzein as additional bioactive components of the investigated dietary supplements. Using the same mobile phase in the orthogonal directions 2D-HPTLC-MS experiments proved degradation, i.e., instability of magnolol and honokiol on the silica gel adsorbent.

Identification of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors in water by combining two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography and high-resolution mass spectrometry. J Chromatogr A 2020; 1624:461239. [PMID: 32540077 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2020.461239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2020] [Revised: 05/11/2020] [Accepted: 05/12/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Effect-directed analysis (EDA) is increasingly used in environmental monitoring to detect and identify key toxicants. High-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) has proven to be a very suitable fractionation technique for this purpose. However, HPTLC is limited in its separation efficiency. Thus, separated fractions could still contain many different components and identification of the effective substances remains difficult. Therefore, in this study a workflow for selective EDA with two-dimensional HPTLC in combination with high-performance liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-HRMS) was developed. The aim of the workflow was the stepwise reduction of the sample complexity in order to reduce the number of signals that could be responsible for the measured effects. As a consequence, the identification of effective substances should be facilitated. The acetylcholinesterase inhibition assay (AChE assay) for the detection of potential neurotoxic compounds was applied for biotesting. The transfer of effective zones from the first to the second dimension and also to the mass spectrometric measurement was enabled by extraction. A proof of concept was performed by spiking six acetylcholinesterase inhibiting substances into three different water matrices that were investigated with the developed workflow. The successful prioritization of all spiked compounds confirmed the efficiency of the workflow, regardless of the sample matrix. Biotesting of different water samples resulted in numerous potentially neurotoxic effects, which overlapped strongly in the first separation dimension. The higher peak capacity reached by two-dimensional HPTLC, on the other hand, resulted in discrete effective zones and enabled the identification of several compounds. For the substances lumichrome, a derivate of riboflavin and paraxanthine as well as for linear alkylbenzene sulfonates that were applied as anionic surfactants in detergents, the inhibiting effect to the AChE could be confirmed.

Abstract
The application of a newly developed HPTLC-bioautography assay for detecting peroxidase enzyme inhibitors in plant extracts in addition to bioautography methods for detecting antioxidant compounds resulted in the isolation of a new biflavonoid 3'-methoxy sahranflavone along with two known biflavonoids and three flavonoids from the leaves and cones of Juniperus communis, J. horizontalis and J. chinensis. The structures of all compounds were elucidated by means of 1 D and 2 D NMR and MALDI-TOF MS technique in addition to comparison to literature data. Quantitative estimation of antiperoxidase and antioxidative capacity based on DPPH free radical scavenging activity and β-carotene bleaching of extracts, active fraction and constituents was achieved by applying validated high resolution image analyses techniques. 3'-methoxy sahranflavone and quercetrin possessed high mutual antiperoxidase and antioxidant activities. Molecular docking simulations were performed to reveal the interaction of isolated compounds with human myeloperoxidase enzyme on the molecular level indicating the potential anti-inflammatory activity of 3'-methoxy sahranflavone and quercetrin.

Abstract
Effect-directed isolation of free radical scavengers from the methanol extract of the freeze-dried fruiting bodies of the cultivated basidiomycetous mushroom, black poplar (Cyclocybe cylindracea), yielded a β-carboline alkaloid. Its structure was determined based on ESI-TOF-MS/MS, NMR and circular dichroism spectra by comparison with published data. The compound, identified as the C1-S diastereomer of brunnein B, exhibited explicit radical scavenging activity (EC50 = 119.1 ± 1.2 μg/mL). The quantity of the active component was determined with HPLC-MS in the fruiting body (36.2 ± 2.8 ng/g DW, dry weight) and its different tissues such as peel (94.7 ± 1.9 ng/g DW), inner cap (90.5 ± 1.3 ng/g DW), gills (71.5 ± 0.6 ng/g DW), and stipe (162.2 ± 1.7 ng/g DW). It is a β-carboline alkaloid that was not reported previously.

Abstract
Mass spectra were recorded directly in situ the bioautogram, i.e., in the presence of microorganisms, bioassay medium and substrate reagent. The desorption-based direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) was applied immediately after direct bioautography (DB). It turned out to be an advantageous combination, as it offered the possibility of a straightforward mass spectrometric detection of bioactive analytes within the bioautogram, and at the same time, it was discriminating microorganism cells and highly polar bioassay medium ingredients which could otherwise stress the MS system. DB-DART-MS was investigated for bioactive compounds in cosmetics using the Bacillus subtilis and Aliivibrio fischeri bioassays for detection of Gram-positive and Gram-negative antimicrobials, respectively, and the planar yeast estrogen screen for detection of estrogen-effective compounds. The influences of the three different bioassay matrices on the analyte response and DB-DART-MS performance on different layers were studied on the example of parabens in hand creams. It was shown that with increasing culture medium complexity, the ion suppression increased. As proof-of-principle, the mass spectrometric quantification at the nanogram level in situ the bioautogram was verified by comparison to HPTLC-DART-MS. The total paraben contents of hand creams 1 and 2 were 0.17-0.20% and 0.30-0.34%, respectively, depending on the method used (DB-DART-MS with two different bioassays or HPTLC-DART-MS as well as on RPW or NP plate). In contrast to the current practice of applying the sample twice and subjecting one track to the bioassay and another to MS, the introduced hyphenation DB-DART-MS is straightforward and highly efficient.

Abstract
European Pharmacopoeia accepts two equivalent species Solidago canadensis L. and S. gigantea Aiton as goldenrod (Solidaginis herba). We compared phytochemical profile of both species from invasive populations in Poland. Further, we compared in vitro antimutagenic and antioxidant activities of solvent extracts from aerial (AP) and underground parts (UP). In S. gigantea, flavonoid profile was dominated by quercetin glycosides, with quercitrin as the major compound. In S. canadensis, quercetin and kaempferol rutinosides were two major constituents. Caffeoylquinic acids (CQAs) were less diverse with 5-CQA as a main compound. In UP, over 20 putative diterpenoids were detected, mostly unidentified. Several CQAs were present in higher amounts than in AP. Antioxidant and antimutagenic activities were different between species and organs, with the strongest inhibition of lipid peroxidation by Et2 O and AcOEt fractions from AP of both species (IC50 13.33 - 16.89 μg/mL) and BuOH fraction from S. gigantea UP (IC50 = 13.32 μg/mL). Chemical mutagenesis was completely inhibited by non-polar fractions, but oxidative mutagenesis was inhibited up to 35% only by S. canadensis. No clear relationship was found between chemical profiles and antimutagenic activity. In conclusion, both species have diverse activity and their phytochemical profiles should be considered in quality evaluation. UP of these weeds can also provide potential chemopreventive substances for further studies.

Abstract
The knowledge about the activity of polyacetylenes was extended by their new acetylcholinesterase inhibition and antibacterial activity against plant pathogenic bacteria. For this discovery, an utmost streamlined workflow, which we consider to be of high potential in the field of natural product or superfood search was developed. It demonstrates the combined power of biological, biochemical and chemical fingerprints. Bioactive components of tansy (Tanacetum vulgare L.) root extract were profiled and identified by high-performance thin-layer chromatography hyphenated with in situ effect-directed analysis, chemical derivatizations and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPTLC-UV/Vis/FLD-EDA-HRMS). The effect-directed profiling was performed using four bacterial bioassays including two plant pathogens, an antioxidant assay and acetyl- and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory assays. The chromatographic, spectral and powerful mass spectrometric study of zones that exerted substantial antibacterial and/or antioxidant and/or acetylcholinesterase inhibitory effects allowed these multi-potent zones to be identified as polyacetylenes. Five polyacetylene compounds were assigned to be 2-non-1-ene-3,5,7-triynyl-3-vinyl-oxirane, 2-(2,4-hexadiynylidene)-3,4-epoxy-1,6-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane, trans- and cis-2-(2,4-hexadiynylidene)-1,6-dioxaspiro[4.5]dec-3-ene and tetradeca-2,4,6-triine-8-en-12-one. This study clearly showed the advantage of the combined use of different ionization sources, i.e. electrospray ionization via an elution-head based interface and also the Direct Analysis in Real Time interface, for HRMS analysis of compounds from the same class with very similar chromatographic behavior and polarity.

Abstract
There are thousands of organic trace substances in the environment that are not fully characterized, and evaluation of their relevance to the ecosystem is difficult. Effect-directed analysis (EDA) is a suitable tool to assess the effects of a substance via in-vitro bioassays, which can provide information about the relevance of the substance. High-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) has been shown to be a good method for fractionation. Environmental samples, however, often have high complexity, which is why the peak capacity of HPTLC is not sufficient. Therefore, this study focused on the development of selective two-dimensional (2D) HPTLC-EDA to increase the peak capacity and facilitate the identification of effective compounds. Thus, only effective zones were selected in the first dimension in terms of heart-cutting and were transferred to the second dimension through elution head-based extraction. Three 2D approaches were developed and validated. The best results in terms of peak capacity and orthogonality were achieved when the retardation factors of the first dimension were used to adjust the mobile phase (MP) for the second dimension. Applying the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition assay as an example EDA, analysis of spiked surface water by 2D HPTLC-EDA allowed zones with neurotoxic effects to responsible substances to be assigned. The 2D separation reduced the complexity of effective zones and thus facilitated the subsequent identification of effective compounds. Knowledge about a substancés effects enabled assessment of its relevance to the environment.

Abstract
The antibacterial profiling of Onopordum acanthium L. leaf extract and subsequent targeted identification of active compounds is demonstrated. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and off-line overpressured layer chromatography (OPLC) coupled with direct bioautography were utilized for investigation of the extract against eight bacterial strains including two plant and three human pathogens and a soil, a marine and a probiotic human gut bacteria. Antibacterial fractions obtaining infusion-transfusion OPLC were transferred to HPLC-MS/MS analysis that resulted in the characterization of three active compounds and two of them were identified as, linoleic and linolenic acid. OPLC method was adopted to preparative-scale flash chromatography for the isolation of the third active compound, which was identified after a further semi-preparative HPLC purification as the germacranolide sesquiterpene lactone onopordopicrin. Pure onopordopicrin exhibited antibacterial activity that was specified as minimal inhibitory concentration in the liquid phase as well.

Abstract
Diarylheptanoids are a class of secondary plant metabolites with a wide variety of bioactivity. Research on their phytochemistry and phytoanalysis is rapidly growing and the number of identified structures bearing the aryl-C7-aryl skeleton is at present approaching 500. Historically, the yellow pigment curcumin has been characterized as the first diarylheptanoid and the extensive research on naturally occurring analogues is still ongoing. In this review, studies dealing with the characterization of linear and cyclic derivatives are discussed from the phytoanalytical point of view. Isolation, fractionation and purification strategies from natural sources along with their chromatographic behavior and structural characteristics are discussed. The role of various techniques used for the extraction (such as Soxhlet extraction, sonication, maceration/percolation, microwave-assisted extraction, supercritical carbon dioxide extraction); isolation (liquid-liquid extraction, column chromatographic techniques, preparative thin-layer and high-performance liquid chromatography, centrifugal partition chromatography, counter-current chromatography); separation (thin-layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, capillary electrophoresis) and structural characterization (UV/Vis spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectroscopy) are critically reviewed.
