  • Ixeris dentata Nakai (Compositae) is a perennial herb which has been used as a folk medicine for treating diabetes and gastroenteric troubles in Korea. Active compounds were isolated from the aerial parts of Ixeris dentata through the bioassay-guided fractionation and isolation method evaluated for inhibition of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in vitro. The compounds were identified as 5,7,3',4'-tetrahydroxyflavone (1) and 5,7,3',4'- tetrahydroxyflavone 7-glucoside (2), based on physical and spectroscopic characteristics. Compounds 1 and 2 showed a selective inhibition of type B MAO (MAO-B) activity, with IC/sub 50/ values of 15.3 μM and 36.4 μM, respectively, but did not inhibit type A MAO (MAO-A) activity.

  • BMB-CF has been constituted of purified fractions of Scutellaria baicalensis, which has medicinal effect such as anti-microbial. anti-inflammation. fever remedy. anti-oxidation. and anti-aging effect etc.. It has been used in traditional medicine formula from long time ago in the east Asia. It is constituted of the active flavone ingredients such as baicalin. baicalein. DTF(Di-methyl Tetra -hydroxy Flavone), wogonin. wogonoside. $\beta$- Sitosterol. etc.. General purified fractions of Scutellaria baicalensis has the high portion of the baicalin which has the problem of narrow antimicrobial spectrum and compatibility against cosmetic formula. Now. we has been develop the new purificaton process of Scutellaria baicalensis that has the high rate of DTF content, which is improved in antimicrobial activity and cosmetics compatibility. So. we have assure that it is the potent preservative against various cosmetic formula.

  • This research was attempted to determine the composition of flavone glycosides (luteolin 7-O-glucoside, luteolin 7-O-glucuronide, linarin) in addition to luteolin simultaneously in aerial part of Youngia japonica (Compositae) by high-performance liquid chromatography. The MeOH extract was further fractionated into the three parts, $CHCl_3$ fraction, EtOAc fraction and BuOH fraction, to investigate the contents of the four flavones in the three fractions. The content of luteolin 7-O-glucuronide (10.07 mg/g) was highest in the MeOH extract among those of the flavones. These four compounds were observed to be less than 1.0 mg/g in $CHCl_3$- and EtOAc fractions but relatively high in BuOH fraction.

  • Two flavone glucosides have been isolated from the leaves of Helianthus tuberosus (jerusalem artichoke). Their structures were identified as kaempferol 3-O-glucoside (1) and quercetin 7-O-glucoside (2) by spectroscopic analysis and confirmed by comparison with reported data. These flavonoids were isolated for the first time from this plant part.

  • Cephalotaxus koreana Nakai is an endemic species in Korea. The EtOH extract of leaf and branch from the plant showed potent antitumor activity in Teruhiro's method. The tumor volume inhibition ratio value is 25.2% with 20mg/kg in the BDF1 mouse injected LLC cell. We isolated one flavone, sciadopitysin (1), two flavone O-glycosides, quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucuronide 6"-ethyl ester (2), apigenin 7-neohesperidoside (3) in comparison with literatures data. Compounds 1-3 showed stronger antitumor activity than Taxol used as positive control. The inhibition ratio values of compounds 1-3 is 34.9, 31.6, 34.0%, respectively, and Taxol is 27.0 % compared with control group.

  • The aerial parts of Lespedeza cuneata were collected, air-dried and extracted with 95% aqueous EtOH. Then it was successively partitioned with n-hexane, $CH_2Cl_2$, EtOAc and $H_2O$. Repeated Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography on the EtOAc- and $H_2O-soluble$ fractions gave four compounds. Their structures were elucidated as quercetin (1), kaempferol (2), desmodin (3) and homoadonivernith (4) on the basis of spectroscopic evidences such as $^{1}H-NMR$, $^{13}C-NMR$, 2D-NMR and MS spectrum. Desmodin (3) and homoadonivernith (4) have not been reported from this plant so far.

  • A flavone glycoside was separated from the aerial part of Circium japonicum var ussuriense Kitamura and the effect on cardiovascular system was investigated. The cadiovascular contractility of this compound was observed in the artria and aortae from normal rats. It increased the spontancous beat in right atria and the contractile force in left atria, and caused the contraction of thoracic aortae. For the blood pressure, it had ascending effect. The effective component, which acted on stimulation and contraction in the artria and aortae of rats was fractionated with n-BuOH, separated and identified by column chromatography, UV, IR, $^1H-NMR$ and $^{13}C-NMR$. The chemical structure for this component was determined to be $hispidulin-7-{\alpha}-rhamnopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$.
