Abstract
Chemical leukoderma, or chemical-based vitiligo, is a dermal disease triggered by exposure to chemicals and characterized by the emergence of depigmentation or hypopigmentation of the skin. The etiology of this condition is associated with exposure to various chemical substances present in both occupational and non-occupational settings. The precise mechanism that underlies chemical leukoderma remains elusive and is believed to result from the demise of melanocytes, which are responsible for producing skin pigments. This condition has gained particular prominence in developing countries like India. An interesting connection between chemical leukoderma and vitiligo has been identified; studies suggest that exposure to many household chemicals, which are derivatives of phenols and catechol, may serve as a primary etiological factor for the condition. Similar to autoimmune diseases, its pathogenesis involves contributions from both genetic and environmental factors. Furthermore, over the last few decades, various studies have demonstrated that exposure to chemicals plays a crucial role in initiating and progressing chemical leukoderma, including cases stemming from occupational exposure.

Abstract
Abnormal melanin overproduction can result in hyperpigmentation syndrome in human skin diseases and enzymatic browning of fruits and vegetables. Recently, our group found that Keggin-type polyoxometalates (POMs) can efficiently inhibit tyrosinase activity. However, it remains unclear whether Keggin-type POMs exhibit optimal effects in vivo. Additionally, the inhibitory effect and mechanism of action of POMs on cellular tyrosinase activity and melanogenesis have been rarely reported. Here we demonstrate that our screened and synthesised PMo11Zn and GaMo12 show superior inhibitory effects on melanin formation as well as inhibition of cellular tyrosinase activity compared to other Keggin-type POMs. Intriguingly, we reveal that Keggin-type POMs competitively bind to tyrosinase mainly through more interactions with Cu2+ ions and the amino acid residue is capable of forming van der Waals, cation-π and hydrogen bonds, resulting in a reversible non-covalent complex formation. Our findings provide valuable insights into the design, synthesis and screening of polyoxometalates as multifunctional metallodrugs and food preservatives against hyperpigmentation.

Abstract
In this study, 12 flavonoid glycosides were selected based on virtual screening and the literature, and Quercimeritrin was selected as the best selective inhibitor of α-glucosidase through in vitro enzyme activity inhibition experiments. Its IC50 value for α-glucosidase was 79.88 µM, and its IC50 value for α-amylase >250 µM. As such, it could be used as a new selective inhibitor of α-glucosidase. The selective inhibition mechanism of Quercimeritrin on the two starch-digesting enzymes was further explored, and it was confirmed that Quercimeritrin had a strong binding affinity for α-glucosidase and occupied the binding pocket of α-glucosidase through non-covalent binding. Subsequently, animal experiments demonstrated that Quercimeritrin can effectively control postprandial blood glucose in vivo, with the same inhibitory effect as acarbose but without side effects. Our results, therefore, provide insights into how flavone aglycones can be used to effectively control the rate of digestion to improve postprandial blood glucose levels.

Abstract
Tyrosinase is inextricably related to the development of Alzheimer's disease. The effects of natural tyrosinase inhibitors on human health have attracted widespread attention. This study aimed to isolate and analyze the tyrosinase (TYR) inhibitory peptides in the enzymatic digestion products of royal jelly. We first analyzed optimal process conditions for the enzymatic digestion of royal jelly by single-factor and orthogonal experiments and then used gel filtration chromatography to obtain five fractions (D1~D5) with molecular weights ranging from 600 to 1100 Da. LC-MS/MS was applied to identify the fractions with the highest activity, and the obtained peptides were screened and molecularly docked using AutoDock Vina. The results showed that the optimal enzymatic conditions for tyrosinase inhibition rate were acid protease, enzyme addition 10,000 U/g, initial pH 4, feed-to-liquid ratio 1:4, enzymatic temperature 55 °C, and enzymatic time 4 h. The D4 fraction had the most significant TYR inhibitory activity. The IC50 values of the three new peptides with the strongest TYR inhibitory activity, TIPPPT, IIPFIF, and ILFTLL, were obtained as 7.59 mg/mL, 6.16 mg/mL, and 9.25 mg/mL, respectively. The molecular docking results showed that aromatic and hydrophobic amino acids were more favorable to occupy the catalytic center of TYR. In conclusion, the new peptide extracted from royal jelly has the potential to be used as a natural TYR inhibitory peptide in food products with health-promoting properties.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2023; 103:3896-3906. [PMID: 36321508 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.12307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/02/2022] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gallocatechin gallate (GCG), a catechin of tea polyphenols, possesses inhibitory ability against tyrosinase, but few studies have reported how common processing methods affect it. In this research, the influence of heating and ultrasound treatments on the inhibition of GCG against tyrosinase was explored by ultraviolet-visible absorption, fluorescence spectroscopy, high-performance liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. RESULTS Both heating and ultrasound treatments of GCG alone improved GCG's inhibitory ability against tyrosinase compared with the untreated, and a combination of heating and ultrasound treatment (100 °C, 20 min + 630 W, 20 min) further decreased the relative tyrosinase activity to 26.8%. The treated GCG exhibited a stronger fluorescence quenching effect on tyrosinase, but did not have any influence on the static quenching mechanism. Compared to the untreated GCG, the binding constants of treated GCG by heating, ultrasound and their combination with tyrosinase significantly increased, but the number of binding sites was still approximately one and the main driving force of the treated GCG was still hydrophobic interaction. After treatments of heating, ultrasound and their combination, the composition of GCG solutions was changed. CONCLUSION The enhanced inhibition of treated GCG on tyrosinase may be due to partial conversion of GCG into epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and gallic acid (GA), which may cooperate with GCG to better inhibit the enzyme activity. This study has provided some valuable information for the application of catechins against tyrosinase in food processing and cosmetic industry. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Mechanistic Understanding of Tyrosinase Inhibition by Polymeric Proanthocyanidins from Acacia confusa Stem Bark and Their Effect on the Browning Resistance of Fresh-Cut Asparagus Lettuce.

Abstract
Tyrosinase inhibitors are capable of preventing unfavorable enzymatic browning of fruits and vegetables. In this study, the capacity of Acacia confusa stem bark proanthocyanidins (ASBPs) to inhibit tyrosinase activity was evaluated. ASBPs were shown to be a high-potential inhibitor of tyrosinase with IC50 values of 92.49 ± 4.70 and 61.74 ± 8.93 μg/mL when using L-tyrosine and L-DOPA as the substrate, respectively. The structural elucidation performed with UV-vis, FT-IR spectroscopy, ESI-MS and thiolysis coupled to HPLC-ESI-MS suggested that ASBPs had structural heterogeneity in monomer units and interflavan linkages and consisted mainly of procyanidins dominant with B-type linkages. To gain insights into the inhibitory mechanisms of ASBPs against tyrosinase, different spectroscopic and molecular docking methods were further conducted. Results validated that ASBPs possessed the ability to chelate copper ions and could prevent the oxidation process of substrates by tyrosinase. The hydrogen bond formed with Lys-376 residue played a key role in the binding force of ASBPs with tyrosinase that induced a certain alteration in the microenvironment and secondary structure of tyrosinase, resulting in the enzymatic activity being ultimately restricted. It was also observed that ASBPs treatment effectively inhibited the activities of PPO and POD to retard the surface browning of fresh-cut asparagus lettuce and thus extended their shelf-life. The results provided preliminary evidence supporting the exploitation of ASBPs into potential antibrowning agents for the fresh-cut food industry.

Abstract
A series of new phenyl acetylene and isoxazole analogues of arjunolic acid were designed, synthesized and evaluated (3-8) for their tyrosinase and alpha glucosidase inhibitory potential. All the tested analogues exhibited stronger inhibitory activity than the standard drug or parent compound. Of these, compound (7) displayed the most potent tyrosinase inhibitory action with IC50 (14.3 ± 7.6) of about three folds more than the standard drug, kojic acid (41.5 ± 1.0). Further, compound (8) (14.5 ± 0.15) possessed the potent alpha glucosidase inhibitory action with IC50 value comparable to that of standard, acarbose (10.4 ± 0.06). Henceforth, compounds (7) and (8) are promising candidates for further studies.

Abstract
Tyrosinase is widely regarded as an important biomarker for melanocytic and liver cancer. However, most currently reported tyrosinase probes have been focused on malignant melanoma study, and few tyrosinase probe have been applied for liver cancer investigation. Herein, we developed a novel probe HFC-TYR for sensitive and selective tracking of tyrosinase activity at enzyme and cellular level, and investigated its application for liver cancer diagnosis. As expected, HFC-TYR has excellent response ability for tyrosinase sensing at enzyme level, such as large Stokes shift (170 nm), high fluorescence enhancement (178-fold), low detection limit (0.12 U/mL), which indicates its potential for efficient identification of endogenous tyrosinase activity at cellular levels. Unsurprisingly, HFC-TYR is proved to be able detect endogenous tyrosinase levels in various living cells. More importantly, HFC-TYR is successfully used to distinguish HepG2 cells from other cells (SKOV3, HeLa and 293T), indicating that tyrosinase is overexpressed in HepG2 cells and HFC-TYR can specifically identify HepG2 cells at cellular level. Meanwhile, HFC-TYR is able to further monitor the endogenous tyrosinase activity in zebrafish models. Therefore, all the findings confirm that HFC-TYR has the application potential of liver cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
It is still unclear how pH affects the inhibitory effects of phenolic acids and flavonoids on polyphenol oxidase (PPO). In this study, 4-hydroxycinnamic acid and naringenin were selected to investigate their interactions with PPO from pH 6.8 to 5.0. Results showed that acidic pH could enhance the inhibitory effect of inhibitors and a greater enhancement effect was observed in 4-hydroxycinnamic acid. Fluorescence emission spectra indicated that 4-hydroxycinnamic acid and naringenin interacted with PPO and quenched its intrinsic fluorescence, which was also enhanced by acidic pH. Circular dichroism suggested that 4-hydroxycinnamic acid and naringenin could reversibly bind to PPO molecules and transform α-helix into β-sheet. Molecular docking results revealed that 4-hydroxycinnamic acid and naringenin interacted with PPO through hydrogen bond and hydrophobic interaction, and more interactions were observed near the carboxyl group. These results indicated that acidic pH could significantly enhance the inhibitory effect of phenolic acid on PPO.

Abstract
Agrobacterium tumefaciens, a soil-borne, saprophytic plant pathogen that colonizes plant surfaces and induces tumors in a wide range of dicotyledonous plants by transferring and expressing its T-DNA genes. The limited availabilities and efficacies of current treatments necessitate the exploration of new anti-Agrobacterium agents. We examined the effects of trans-cinnamaldehyde (t-CNMA) and its derivatives on the cell surface hydrophobicity, exopolysaccharide and exo-protease production, swimming motility on agar, and biofilm forming ability of A. tumefaciens. Based on initial biofilm inhibition results and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) data, 4-nitro, 4-chloro, and 4-fluoro CNMAs were further tested. 4-Nitro, 4-chloro, and 4-fluoro CNMA at ≥150 μg/ml significantly inhibited biofilm formation by 94–99%. Similarly, biofilm formation on polystyrene or nylon was substantially reduced by 4-nitro and 4-chloro CNMAs as determined by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and 3-D spectrum plots. 4-Nitro and 4-chloro CNMAs induced cell shortening and concentration- and time-dependently reduced cell growth. Virulence factors were significantly and dose-dependently suppressed by 4-nitro and 4-chloro CNMAs (P ≤ 0.05). Gene expressional changes were greater after 4-nitro CNMA than t-CNMA treatment, as determined by qRT-PCR. Furthermore, some genes essential for biofilm formation, motility, and virulence genes significantly downregulated by 4-nitro CNMA. Seed germination of Raphanus sativus was not hindered by 4-nitro or 4-fluoro CNMA at concentrations ≤200 μg/ml, but root surface biofilm formation was severely inhibited. This study is the first to report the anti-Agrobacterium biofilm and anti-virulence effects of 4-nitro, 4-chloro, and 4-fluoro CNMAs and t-CNMA and indicates that they should be considered starting points for the development of anti-Agrobacterium agents.

Abstract
Melanocyte cell death can lead to various melanocyte-related skin diseases including vitiligo and leukoderma. Melanocytotoxic chemicals are one of the most well-known causes of nongenetic melanocyte-related diseases, which induce melanocyte cell death through apoptosis. Various chemicals used in cosmetics, medicine, industry and food additives are known to induce melanocyte cell death, which poses a significant risk to the health of consumers and industrial workers. This review summarizes recently reported melanocytotoxic chemicals and their mechanisms of toxicity in an effort to provide insight into the development of safer chemicals.

Abstract
Peptides derived from egg protein hydrolysate have potential hypoglycemic benefits by inhibiting α-glucosidase. Herein, fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular docking were performed to investigate the α-glucosidase inhibitory mechanism of the oligopeptides ARDASVLK and HNKPEVEVR from soft-shelled turtle eggs. Gastrointestinal digestion characteristics of the two oligopeptides were further determined by LC-QTOF-MS/MS. The static fluorescence quenching of α-glucosidase by ARDASVLK and HNKPEVEVR indicated the formation of a stable α-glucosidase-peptide complex, mainly driven by hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. ARDASVLK and HNKPEVEVR could easily insert into the active pocket of α-glucosidase (docking scores of -157.1 and -158.4, respectively), thereby inhibiting enzyme activity by preventing substrate binding and inducing enzymatic conformation change. After gastrointestinal digestion, 14.3% and 30.4% of ARDASVLK and HNKPEVEVR were maintained intact, respectively, and their digestive products (mainly DASVLK and HNKPEVEV) still showed high inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase (about 35% inhibition). This study sheds light on the mechanism of oligopeptides derived from soft-shelled turtle eggs as a novel α-glucosidase inhibitor for diabetes. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Oligopeptides from egg protein hydrolysate have potential hypoglycemic properties by inhibiting α-glucosidase. This study has provided insights into the inhibitory mechanism of oligopeptides from soft-shelled turtle egg on α-glucosidase. Interestingly, despite the fact that the oligopeptides are largely degraded during gastrointestinal digestion, their digestive metabolites displayed strong α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. Because α-glucosidase is highly expressed in small intestine brush border, our findings support the possibility of these oligopeptides as an attractive health-benefit compound to control glucose without being absorbed by intestinal epithelial cells, unlike other enzyme inhibitors such as ACE inhibitors, which have poor oral bioavailability. This study may facilitate the applications of oligopeptides from soft-shelled turtle egg as α-glucosidase inhibitors and food functional ingredients for the therapy of diabetes.

Abstract
Polyphenols are inhibitors for lipase, but the binding selectivity and mechanism of polyphenol isomers and how they interact with lipase are not clear. Here, chlorogenic acid (CGA) isomers, neochlorogenic acid (NCGA) and cryptochlorogenic acid (CCGA) were used to explore the binding selectivity and mechanism of lipase. An inhibition assay indicated that both CGA isomers had dose-dependent inhibitory effects on lipase; however, the inhibitory effect of NCGA was better (IC50: 0.647 mg/mL) than that of CCGA (IC50: 0.677 mg/mL). NCGA and CCGA formed complexes with lipase at a molar ratio of 1:1, and the electrostatic interaction force plays a major role in the lipase-CCGA system. Molecular dynamics studies demonstrated that NCGA had a greater impact on the structure of lipase. The multi-spectroscopic and modeling results explained the effects of micro-structural changes on the binding site, the interaction force and the inhibition rate of the isomers when they combined with lipase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tyrosinase inhibitors find potential application in food, cosmetic and medicinal products, but most of the identified tyrosinase inhibitors are not suitable for practical use because of safety regulations or other problems. For the purpose of development of novel tyrosinase inhibitors that meet the requirement for practical application, a novel stilbene analogue (SA) was designed. RESULTS SA was found to possess a potent inhibitory effect against both mono- and diphenolase activities of mushroom tyrosinase, with IC50 values of 1.56 and 7.15 μmol L-1 , respectively. Compared with a natural tyrosinase inhibitor - kojic acid - the anti-tyrosinase effect of SA was significantly improved. Analysis of inhibition kinetics indicated that SA was a reversible and competitive-noncompetitive mixed-type inhibitor. SA was also found to possess more potent antioxidant activities (DPPH, superoxide anion radical and hydroxyl radical scavenging ability) than those of kojic acid. Cell viability studies revealed that SA was non-toxic to two cell lines. Furthermore, an anti-browning test demonstrated that SA effectively delayed the blackening of shrimp. CONCLUSION SA has potential as an anti-browning agent in foods. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) is considered to have a key role in the food industry because it initiates enzymatic browning in the processing and storage of fruit and vegetables. Increasing numbers of benzoic and cinnamic acid derivatives have been found to be efficient inhibitors of polyphenol oxidase, but a comparison study on activity and action mechanism is lacking. In this study, 18 benzoic acid and cinnamic acid hydroxy derivatives were selected and investigated. RESULTS Three substrates, four activators and 11 inhibitors were identified from benzoic and cinnamic acid derivatives. 2,4-Dihydroxycinnamic acid and benzoic acid showed the strongest inhibitory effect on PPO, with IC50 of 0.092 and1.425 mmol L-1 , respectively. Benzoic acid reversibly inhibited PPO in a competitive manner, while 2,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid showed a mixed-type inhibition. Both of them showed that static-type fluorescence quenching and electrostatic interaction were the main driving force in the bonding process. Compared with benzoic acid, 2,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid more easily formed hydrogen bonds in the active site of PPO, making the interaction more stable. CONCLUSION Comparative analysis showed that the inhibition effect of cinnamic acid hydroxyl derivatives on PPO was stronger than that of benzoic acid derivatives. Benzoic acid and 2,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid were the strongest inhibitors. PPO inhibitors identified from benzoic and cinnamic acid derivatives are expected to be promising inhibitors for controlling fruit and vegetable browning. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The inhibition mechanism of two homoisoflavonoids from Ophiopogon japonicus including methylophiopogonanone A (MO-A) and methylophiopogonanone B (MO-B) on tyrosinase (Tyr) was studied by multiple spectroscopic techniques and molecular docking. The results showed that the two homoisoflavonoids both inhibited Tyr activity via a reversible mixed-inhibition, with a half inhibitory concentration (IC50) of (10.87 ± 0.25) × 10-5 and (18.76 ± 0.14) × 10-5 mol L-1, respectively. The fluorescence quenching and secondary structure change of Tyr caused by MO-A and B are mainly driven by hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bonding. Molecular docking analysis indicated that phenylmalandioxin in MO-A and methoxy in MO-B could coordinate with a Cu ion in the active center of Tyr, and interacted with amino acid Glu322 to form hydrogen bonding, occupying the catalytic center to block the entry of the substrate and consequently inhibit Tyr activity. This study may provide new perspectives on the inhibition mechanism of MO-A and MO-B on Tyr and serve a scientific basis for screening effective Tyr inhibitors.

Abstract
Tyrosinase is the rate-limiting enzyme controlling the production of melanin, and tyrosinase inhibitors can regulate the overproduction of melanin by inhibiting tyrosinase activity, which is an effective method to treat pigmentation disorders. In this study, kinetic analysis, multispectroscopic methods and molecular simulation were used to investigate the inhibitory activity and mechanism of trilobatin on tyrosinase. The kinetic analysis showed that trilobatin had significant inhibitory activity on tyrosinase in a reversible and mixed-type manner with IC50 values of (2.24 ± 0.35) × 10-5 mol L-1. The intrinsic fluorescence of tyrosinase was quenched by trilobatin through a static quenching mechanism. Different spectroscopic measurements demonstrated that trilobatin could change the microenvironments and conformation of tyrosinase and molecular docking determined the binding site of quercetin on tyrosinase.

After separation by ultrafiltration and Sephadex G-25, the fraction with the highest tyrosinase inhibitory activity was identified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and 606 peptides were obtained. Then, molecular docking was used to screen for tyrosinase inhibitory peptides and to clarify the theoretical interaction mechanism between the peptides and tyrosinase. A peptide with the sequence Phe-Pro-Tyr (FPY, MW: 425.2 Da) was identified and the synthesized peptide inhibited tyrosine monophenolase and diphenolase with IC50 values of 1.11 ± 0.05 and 3.22 ± 0.09 mM, respectively. The inhibition of tyrosinase by FPY was competitive and reversible. Good stability of FPY toward digestion was observed in an in vitro gastrointestinal digestion simulation experiment. These results indicated that FPY can be used as a potential tyrosinase inhibitor in the food, medicine, and cosmetics industries.

Abstract
This study investigated anti-polyphenol oxidase activity and mechanism of purified total flavonoids (PTF) from young loquat fruits. PTF remarkably inhibited the activity of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) with an IC50 value of 21.03 ± 2.37 μg/mL. Based on enzyme kinetics, PTF was found to be a potent, mixed-type, and reversible inhibitor of PPO. The fluorescence intensity of PPO was quenched by PTF through forming a PTF-PPO complex in a static procedure. Therefore, this study authenticated PTF as an efficient PPO inhibitor, which would contribute to their utilization in food industry.

Abstract
Spices contain plenty of bioactive compounds, used to valorize foods. However, product quality may be affected by contaminations and adulterations along the global production chain. A newly developed multi-imaging in combination with bioactivity screening directly pointed to individual multi-potent compounds. For cinnamon as prominent example, the multi-imaging results provided a wealth of new information on their effects and clearly visualized the valorizing potential of cinnamon to foods. The separation focus was in the mid-polar to apolar range. Eight effect-directed assays (EDA, i.e. one radical scavenging, two biological and five biochemical assays) were performed in situ the high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) adsorbent. Several multi-potent compound zones were revealed and further characterized by high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), highlighting the bioactive potential of cinnamaldehyde, cinnamic acid, benzoic acid, coumarin, linoleic acid, oleic acid, stearic acid, palmitic acid, caproic acid, and linalool oxide. This HPTLC-UV/Vis/FLD-EDA-HRMS profiling provided comprehensive information on product quality and safety.

Abstract
Novel derivatives were synthesized using natural scaffold, like phenylpropanoids C6-C3 backbone to reduce unfavorable browning of food due to tyrosinase and oxidative spoilage. Most of the compounds displayed mushroom tyrosinase inhibition better than kojic acid. Compound CE48 exhibited better anti-tyrosinase (IC50-29.64 μM) and antioxidant (EC50-12.67 μM) activity than the reference compounds, kojic acid (IC50-50.30 μM) and ascorbic acid (EC50-14.55 μM), respectively. Compounds SAM30, SE78, 11F, and CE48 showed better anti-B. subtilis, anti-S. aureus, and anti-A. niger activity, respectively, compared to their parents. Molecular docking studies between inhibitors and mushroom tyrosinase corroborated the experimental reports, except SAM30 (glide score - 8.117) and SE78 (glide score - 6.151). In silico absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion/toxicity (ADME/T) and toxicological studies of these newly synthesized compounds exhibited acceptable pharmacokinetic and safety profiles, like good aqueous solubility (- 3.34 to - 7.57), low human oral absorption (e.g., SAM30, SE78, FAM34), low gut-blood barrier permeability [36.67-209.88 nm/s in Cancer coli-2 (Caco-2) cells] and [19.45-91.51 nm/s in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells], low blood-brain barrier penetration, non-mutagenicity, and non-carcinogenicity. Interestingly, the synthesized compounds also possessed multifunctional properties, like microbial growth inhibitor, free radicals scavenger, and it also prevented browning of raw fruits and vegetables by inhibiting tyrosinase enzyme.

Abstract
In this study, 5-methoxy-2-mercaptobenzimidazole (5-M-2-MB) was confirmed as an efficient tyrosinase inhibitor by methods of enzyme kinetic, fluorescence quenching, ANS-binding, thermodynamics, energy transfer, and molecular docking in combination. The results proved that 5-M-2-MB significantly inhibited the tyrosinase (IC50 = 60 ± 2 nM) in a reversible and competitive way with the Ki value of 80 ± 1 nM. It quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of tyrosinase through a static mechanism, and caused conformational change of the enzyme by increasing the hydrophobic region. Moreover, this compound could bind to tyrosinase and form 5-M-2-MB-tyrosinase complex by hydrogen bond and hydrophobic interaction. The interactions were generated between 5-M-2-MB and specific amino acid residues (Trp-358, Thr-308, Glu-356, and Asp-357) located on the A chain of tyrosinase. Therefore, this study would offer a theoretical foundation for developing the new tyrosinase inhibitor.

Abstract
Background Tangzhiqing (TZQ), as a potential α-glycosidase inhibitor, possesses postprandial hypoglycaemic effects on maltose in humans. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms by which TZQ attenuates postprandial glucose by interrupting the activity of maltase, including inhibitory kinetics and circular dichroism studies. Methods In this study, we determined the inhibitory effect of TZQ on maltase by kinetic analysis to determine the IC50 value and enzyme velocity studies and line weaver-burk plot generation to determine inhibition type. Acarbose was chosen as a standard control drug. After the interaction with TZQ and maltase, secondary structure analysis was conducted with a circular dichroism method. Results TZQ showed notable inhibition activity on maltase in a reversible and competitive manner with an IC50 value of 1.67 ± 0.09 μg/ml, which was weaker than that of acarbose (IC50 = 0.29 ± 0.01 μg/ml). The circular dichroism spectrum demonstrated that the binding of TZQ to maltase changed the conformation of maltase and varied with the concentration of TZQ in terms of the disappearance of β-sheets and an increase in the α-helix content of the enzyme, similar to acarbose. Conclusions This work provides useful information for the inhibitory effect of TZQ on maltase. TZQ has the potential to be an α-glycosidase inhibitor for the prevention and treatment of prediabetes or mild diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Controlling the blood glucose level is an effective method to reduce type 2 diabetes and prevent diabetes-related complications. Ursolic acid is a plant extract that can reduce postprandial hyperglycemia effectively. This study aimed to explore the inhibitory effect and interaction mechanism of ursolic acid against α-amylase and α-glucosidase. RESULTS In this study, the effect of ursolic acid on glycosidase was studied in vitro, in vivo, and in silico. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50 ) of ursolic acid on α-amylase and α-glucosidase was 0.482 ± 0.12 mg mL-1 and 0.213 ± 0.042 mg mL-1 , respectively. The results of enzymatic kinetics showed that ursolic acid inhibited α-amylase and α-glucosidase activity in a non-competitive manner. The fluorescence spectrum showed that the combination of ursolic acid and glycosidase caused the intrinsic fluorescence quenching of glycosidase. The observation of starch granules revealed that the activity of α-amylase was inhibited and the hydrolysis of starch granules was prevented in the presence of ursolic acid. Molecular docking results showed that ursolic acid bound to the inactive site of α-amylase and α-glucosidase through the formation of ursolic acid-glucosidase complex. Ursolic acid interacted with α-amylase and α-glucosidase mainly through hydrogen bonding. The postprandial hypoglycemic effect of ursolic acid in C57BL/6J mice showed that the high concentration of ursolic acid could quickly reduce postprandial blood glucose level. CONCLUSION Ursolic acid can be considered as a natural ingredient in functional foods to control postprandial blood glucose levels and prevent diabetes by delaying the digestion of starch in foods. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The activities of ellagic acid in inhibiting mushroom tyrosinase and cell proliferation were evaluated in this research. The results of enzyme kinetics indicated that ellagic acid could effectively inhibit tyrosinase activity. The value of the semi-inhibitory rate (IC50 ) was 0.2 ± 0.05 mM. Ellagic acid inhibited tyrosinase activity in a reversible manner and was a mixed tyrosinase inhibitor. Furthermore, ellagic acid had a good inhibitory effect on the proliferation of mouse melanoma B16 cells and could induce apoptosis. The results acquired from fluorescence spectroscopy revealed that the interaction of ellagic acid with tyrosinase depended on hydrogen bond and electrostatic force. In addition, computational docking showed that ellagic acid interacted with amino acid residues of tyrosinase (Asn19 and Lys372) by hydrogen bond and produced electrostatic interaction with amino residue Lys18. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: In the present research, the antityrosinase mechanism of ellagic acid and its effect on mouse melanoma cells were investigated. This study suggested that ellagic acid had a strong inhibitory activity against tyrosinase and cell proliferation,which laid an experimental foundation for the development of new drugs and whitening products. The combined multispectral methods used in this research can be applied to the screening of other antityrosinase inhibitors, further promoting the development and utilization of tyrosinase inhibitors.

Abstract
Polyphenols can inhibit the enzymatic browning in food, but their indistinct synergistic effect and conformational change have limited their applications. In this paper, the mixture of quercetin, cinnamic acid and ferulic acid (Group 11, KI = 0.239 mM) possessed a higher inhibition ability than quercetin (KI = 0.361 mM), which could promote the spontaneous binding process. The final Group 11-tyrosinase complex is more stable, and the hydrophobic effect is the major driving force during the binding process. Moreover, there is not a direct relationship between the destruction of secondary structures and catalytic activity of tyrosinase. The interaction between ferulic acid and tyrosinase could destroy the secondary structures of enzyme but it had little impact on the tyrosinase activity. Molecular docking suggested that three polyphenols from Group 11 have synergistic effect on tyrosinase. This study provides new perspectives about the development of tyrosinase inhibitors in food products.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The insecticidal and repellent effects on adult Sitophilus zeamais of 12 cinnamaldehyde-related compounds was evaluated by contact toxicity bioassays and a two-choice olfactometer. To determine non-toxicity in mammals, body weight, serum biochemical profiles, liver weight, physiological parameters, sperm motility, and histopathological data were obtained as complementary information in C57BL/6 mice treated with the best natural compound. RESULTS Based on 24 h LC95 and LC50 values, α-methyl-cinnamaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde exhibited better insecticidal action than the other compounds. The best repellent effect was observed with α-bromo-cinnamaldehyde, which even repelled at the lowest concentration studied (0.28 µmol L-1 ). The evaluation of a quantitative structure-activity relationship found a linear relationship between the LC50 values for adult weevil toxicity and dipolo with Q values (giving the difference between orbital electronegativity carbon 1 and orbital electronegativity carbon 3 of the molecule) in cinnamaldehyde-related compounds. The polar surface and Log P descriptors also revealed a linear relationship with the S. zeamais repellent effect for cinnamaldehyde analogues. Cinnamaldehyde did not show toxicity in the parameters evaluated in mice. CONCLUSION From the phenylpropanoid components studied, the natural compound that had the best insecticidal and repellent action against S. zeamais was cinnamaldehyde. It presented no mammalian toxicity. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.
