In the presence of laccase, generation of monomeric aromatic acids from nonphenolic lignin model dimer veratrylglycerol-$\beta$-vanillate ether (VVE) was observed. The addition of acetovanillone (AV) or acetosyringone (AS) intensified this process, i.e. transformation was more extensive than in the experiments omitting mediators. Among the products isovanillic (IA) and vanillic (VA) acids were identified.

From the analysis of proton NMR signals of human urine it is found that the signals corresponding to a phenolic compound of tyrosine are more frequently observed in cancer urine than in non-cancer urine. An effective reagent is obtained to detect the substance excreted in the urine and to find out a close connection with the result of the NMR analysis. An attempt is made to determine the reagent sensitivity and specificity for cancer diagnosis. The results of the attempt are respectively above 75% for both on an average.

Phellinus linteus has been used as anti-tumor and immuno stimulating agents in folk remedies. From precipitate of MeOH ex. by activited guided fractionation. 5.8-epidioxy ergosta-6.22-dien-3ol. palmitic acid. linoleic acid, and methyl linolate. 3.4-dihydroxybenzoic acid methylester and 4-(3'4'-Dihydroxyphenyl)-3-butene-2one were isolated. DPPH method was used to examine of antioxidative activity of the isolated compounds. As the result, 3.4-dihydroxybenzoic acid methylester, and phenolic compound. 4-(3'4'-Dihydroxyphenyl) -3-butene-2one were found to be a scavenger of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrzyl radical. (omitted)

Phytochemical investigation of the 80% MeOH extract from the leaves of Hosta longipes resulted in the isolation of sixteen compounds (1 - 16). The structures of the compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods to be methyl 10,10-dimethoxydecanoate (1), methyl 10-hydroxy-8E,12Z-octadecadienoate (2), methyl coriolate (3), trans-phytol (4), phytene-1,2-diol (5), phyton (6), (3S,5R,6S,7E,9R)-7-megastigmene-3,6,9-triol (7), (3S,5R,6S,9R)-3,6,9-trihydroxymegastigman-7-ene (8), shikimic acid (9), p-coumaramide (10), trans-N-p-coumaroyltyramine (11), cis-N-coumaroyltyramine (12), tryptophan (13), thymidine (14), adenosine (15), and deoxyadenosine (16). Compound 1 was synthesized, but not yet isolated from natural source, and compounds 2-16 were isolated for the first time from this plant source.

Butein is a one of polyphenolic compound widely available in numerous plants. It has broad biological activities including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, which contributed to its protective effects against cancer. Evidences that butein influence proliferation of tumor cells make it important to determine how butein affects cell death of various cancers. In this study, we show that butein, a phenolic compound, induces apoptosis in human T lymphoma jurkat cells. We found that treatment of cells with butein increased apoptosis in a dose- and time- dependent manner as determined by staining cells with Annexin V and 7AAD. There was no significant apoptotic cell death when normal lymphocytes and monocytes from healthy donor were treated with butein. We also found caspase-3 activity was increased during butein-induced apoptosis. The buteininduced apoptotic cell death was blocked by the treatment of cells with caspase-3 inhibitor. These results indicate that butein has the potential to provide an effective strategy against cancer with the advantage of being widely avalible.
