Sargassum fulvellum (gulfweed) is a widespread seaweed in the coastal areas of northeast Asia. In the present study, we identified the phenolic compounds present in aqueous and ethanolic extracts of S. fulvellum and evaluated their antioxidative properties and their abilities to block cell proliferation using in vitro assays: antioxidant activity was assessed by using a DPPH assay and superoxide anion scavenging activity, anti-tyrosinase activity, and anti-proliferative activity were assessed using MTT and lactate dehydrogenase [LDH] assays in vascular smooth muscle cells. The hot-water ($65^{\circ}C$) extract had a higher phenol content than the ethanolic extract. The hot-water extract showed a statistically significant increase in free radical scavenging activity and a greater ability to reduce proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells stimulated with platelet-derived growth factor-BB. Taken together, hot-water extracts of S. fulvellum may be an important source of antioxidative and antiproliferative agents.

프로폴리스에서 분리한 MDQ 및 quercetin의 작용기에 따른 항산화 효과를 비교 분석하고 방사선 조사에 의한 DNA의 산화적 손상에 있어서 두 화합물이 어느 정도의 방어효과가 있는지를 측정 하고자 하였다. 두 화합물의 항산화 활성 시험(DPPH 라디칼 소거활성, 지질과산화 억제활성, superoxide anion 라디칼 소거활성)에서 quercetin이 MDQ보다 훨씬 강한 항산화 활성을 보였으며, 특히 superoxide anion라디칼 소거활성 시험에서 MBQ는 거의 활성을 보이지 않았지만 quercetin은 농도 의존적인 강한 소거활성을 보였다. 또한, mouse 림프구에서 방사선 조사에 의한DNA의 산화적 손상에 대한 두 화합물의 방어효과 시험에서 MDQ와 Quercetin은 동일 농도에서 거의 유사한 방사선 방어효과가 관찰되었다. 상기의 결과로부터 두 화합물의 작용기를 고려해 볼 때 B ring에 있는 catechol작용기의 존재 유무에 따라서 항산화 활성의 차이가 있으며 또한 MDQ화합물의 C ring에 존재하는 methoxy group은 quercetin에 존재하는 hydroxy group과 비교해 볼 때 항산화를 비활성화시키는 작용기의 하나로서 판단되어진다. 따라서 본 실험의 결과로 미루어 볼 때 방사선 방어 효과는 항산화 활성에 미치는 메카니즘과 유사하게 작용하는 것으로 판단되어지며 아울러 일차적으로 항산화 활성 물질을 검색함으로써 산화적 스트레스에 의한 DNA에 대한 방어물질 검색 수단으로서 유용할 것으로 사료된다. 이상의 결과로부터 프로폴리스는 산화적 스트레스에 대한 경감제로서 그 가능성이 시사되었다.

Objectives : The present study was under taken to characterize chemical composition, antioxidant and cyto-protecting capacity of essential oil obtained from leaves of Liriodendron tulipifera L. Methods : Essential oil from the leafof L. tulipifera L. (EOLL) was extracted by hydro-distillation process and further its chemical composition was evaluated by GC-MS analysis. The in vitro antioxidant potential of the EOLL was determined by DPPH ^●, ABTS ^●+, superoxide and nitric oxide free radical scavenging activity using different concentrations in the range of 50-800 μg/mL. In addition, cyto-protecting property of the EOLLwas determined by MTT assay on Raw 264.7 macrophage cells challenged with hydrogen peroxide (H ₂ O ₂ ). Results : The result of GC-MS analysis showed presence of 34 volatile compounds, principally germacrene D, spathulenol, and α -cadinol in EOLL. The in vitro antioxidant assays of EOLL at the highest used concentration of 800 μg/mL showed 81.62, 84.29, 83.59 and 58.59% inhibition of DPPH ^●, ABTS ^●+, superoxide, and nitric oxide radicals, respectively. It also showed ferric reducing ability with 1310.04 mM Fe (II)/g of essential oil. The EOLL at three different concentrations (200, 400 and 800 μg/mL) protected the cells from H ₂ O ₂ -induced cell damage through scavenging intracellular ROS. Conclusion : The findings from the study suggest that essential oil isolated from leaves of L tulipifera L. is a potent sources of natural antioxidants, which could be used to treat the diseases associated with oxidative stress condition.

Oxidative stress has been implicated in cutaneous damage in various inflammatory skin diseases, including atopic dermatitis. The present study was undertaken to investigate the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities of the extract of Duchesnea chrysantha (DCE). DEC was prepared by extracting with 80% ethanol. Total flavonoids and polyphenols were measured by a colorimetric assay. The free radical scavenging activity of the extract was analyzed by the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl), ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) and Griess reagent assay. An oxidative product of nitric oxide (NO), was measured in the culture medium by the Griess reaction. The level of prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were measured by Western blot analysis. Total flavonoid and polyphenol contents of DCE were included $24.73{\pm}0.45$ and $178.77{\pm}2.65$, respectively. DCE significantly increased electron donating ability (DPPH), nitrite scavenging (NO) and ABTS reducing activity in dose dependant. We investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of DCE on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. DCE significantly suppressed NO and prdstaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$) in dose dependant. Furthermore, the levels of iNOS and COX-2 protein expressions were markedly suppressed by the treatment with DCE in a dose dependent manner. These results suggest that DEC may has value as natural product with its high quality functional components, antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities.

Interruption of blood flow through coronary arteries and its subsequent restoration triggers the generation of a burst of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to myocardial cell death. In this study, we determined whether a methanol extract of Cassia mimosoides var. nomame Makino could prevent myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. When radical scavenging activity of the extract was measured in vitro using its ${\alpha}$,${\alpha}$-diphenyl-${\beta}$-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical quenching ability, the extract showed an activity slightly lower than that of ascorbic acid. Three days after oral administration of the extract (400 mg/kg/day) to rats, myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury was generated by 30 min of ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), followed by 3 hr reperfusion. Compared with the vehicle-treated group, administration of the extract significantly reduced infarct size (IS) (ratio of infarct area to area at risk) in the extract-treated group by 28.3%. Reduction in the cellular injury was mediated by attenuation of Bax/Bcl-2 ratio by 33.3%, inhibition of caspase-3 activation from procaspase-3 by 40%, and subsequent reduction in the number of apoptotic cells by 66.3%. These results suggest that the extract attenuates myocardial injury in a rat model of ischemia-reperfusion by scavenging ROS, including free radicals, and consequently blocking apoptotic cascades. Therefore, intake of Cassia mimosoides var. nomame Makino might be beneficial for preventing ischemic myocardial injury.

This study was carried out to investigate the optimun conditions for the isolation of low molecular weight peptides containing histidine, and to evaluate the antioxidant effects of skipjack boiled extracts(SBE). The results are summarized as follows : L-histidine contents of the ordinary muscle and dark muscle extracts were $ 83.1{\pm}1.75{\mu}M/g\;and\;11.0{\pm}2.39\;{\mu}M/g$, respectively. The L-histidine level of the dark muscle was much lower than that of ordinary muscle in the SBE. The extracts were treated with alcalase and neutrase under different pH levels, temperatures, and times. The optimum hydrolysis conditions of SBE were pH 7.0 and a $60^{\circ}$C temperature for 2 hr in the batch reactor, which hydrolyzed 63% of the SBE. HPLC analysis showed a removing effect of the ultrafiltration permeate (UFP) to high molecular weight impurities in SBE. SBE and pure carnosine participated as inhibiting agents to, which was confirmed through the autoxidation processing of linoleic acid. UFP treatment improved the inhibiting ability of SBE to the autoxidation of linoleic acid. The reducing power of the UFP-treated ordinary muscle extracts were 10-fold higher than the dark muscle extracts, and 0.7-fold higher than 20 mM pure carnosine. The UFP-treated ordinary muscle extracts had greater reducing power activity than pure carnosine. The scavenging activities on DPPH radical of the different treated-SBE and pure carnosine were also investigated. Scavenging activities of the ordinary and dark muscle extracts and the pure carnosine were 90%, 70%, and 45%, respectively. In summary, Skipjack boiled extracts (SBE) demonstrated that low molecular weight peptides containing histidine are capable of inhibiting lipid oxidation. They also possessed effective abilities as free radical scavengers and reducing agents, and these activities may increase with increasing concentrations.
