Zizyphus jujube is a plant in the buckthorn family (Rhamnaceae) that has been the subject of research into antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties of its fruit and seed. However, few studies have investigated its leaves. In this study, the anti-inflammatory activity of ZJL (an extract of Z. jujube leaf) was evaluated to verify its potential as an anti-inflammatory agent and SARS-CoV-2 medicine, using nitric oxide (NO) assay, RT-PCR, SDSPAGE, Western blotting, and UHPLC/TOFHRMS analysis. We found that ZJL suppresed pro-inflammatory mediators such as NO, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW264.7 cells. ZJL acted by inhibiting NF-KB and MAPK signaling pathway activity. We also confirmed that ZJL contains a phenol compound and flavonoids with anti-inflammatory activity such as trehalose, maleate, epigallocatechin, hyperoside, catechin, 3-O-coumaroylquinic acid, rhoifolin, gossypin, kaempferol 3-neohesperidoside, rutin, myricitrin, guaiaverin, quercitrin, quercetin, ursolic acid, and pheophorbide a. These findings suggest that ZJL may have great potential for the development of anti-inflammatory drugs and vaccines via inhibition of NF-κB and MAPK signaling in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells.

본 연구에서는 chlorogenic acid 이성질체 9종과 arbutin을 분석하기 위하여, 전처리 과정과 UHPLC-MS/MS 동시분석 조건을 확립하였다. UHPLC-MS/MS에서 C18 column을 사용하여 15분 동안 분석할 수 있는 용매 조성을 만들고, 10가지 물질에 대한 정량, 정성 이온을 선택하여 negative 모드에서 분석하는 동시분석법을 확립하였고 과일류를 대상으로 추출, 진탕추출, 초음파 추출, 원심분리, 농축 등의 과정을 거치는 전처리법을 개발하였다. 기기분석과 전처리법에 대한 유효성은 특이성, 직선성, 정확성, 정밀성 그리고 검출한계 및 정량한계 등을 통하여 확인하였다. 회수율은 48.1-120.3%, intraday precision(RSD)는 0.4-7.9%, interday precision (RSD)는 0.0-7.2%로 확인되었다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 확립한 동시분석방법은 과일류 중 chlorogenic acid와 arbutin을 효과적으로 분석하는데 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

효모추출물 4 mg/mL를 고추유묘에 경엽 및 뿌리 관주처리 24시간 후에 salicylic acid(SA)함량을 ultra high performance liquid chromatography(UHPLC)분석방법으로 측정한 결과 yeast cell wall extract(YCWE)처리구에서 대조구의 SA처리구와 동일한 peak가 검출되어 SA가 생성 유도 되는 것으로 확인 되었다. SA는 YCWE를 경엽처리 48시간 후 20.29 ${\mu}g/g$으로 가장 높게 나타났으며 관주처리보다 약 3.7배의 높은 SA검출함량을 보였으나 처리 후 72시간부터는 점차적으로 SA함량이 감소하는 양상을 보였다.

Analytical methods for detecting atranol, chloroatranol, evernic acid, (+)-usnic acid, and atranorin in sanitary napkins and mouthwashes were developed using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). UHPLC-MS/MS conditions were optimized for rapid, sensitive, and simultaneous analysis of the five allergenic compounds. The methods were validated by assessing their specificity, matrix effects, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), linearity, accuracy, and precision. Good linearity was achieved with a determination coefficient of ≥0.99. The LOD and LOQ were 2.1-9.8 and 6.4-29.6 ng/g for sanitary napkins and 0.29-0.48 and 0.87-1.45 ng/mL for mouthwashes, respectively. The accuracy and precision were within an acceptable range according to the criteria reported in the European SANTE/11813/2017 guidelines (70-120 % recovery, <20 % relative standard deviation). Therefore, these methods can be used to analyze atranol, chloroatranol, evernic acid, (+)-usnic acid, and atranorin in sanitary napkins and mouthwashes.

Seasonal ginsenoside flux in the leaves of 5-year-old Panax ginseng was analyzed from the field-grown ginseng, for the first time, to study possible biosynthesis and translocation of ginsenosides. The concentrations of nine major ginsenosides, Rg1, Re, Rh1, Rg2, R-Rh1, Rb1, Rc, Rb2, and Rd, were determined by UHPLC during the growth in between April and November. It was confirmed total ginsenoside content in the dried ginseng leaves was much higher than the roots by several folds whereas the composition of ginsenosides was different from the roots. The ginsenoside flux was affected by ginseng growth. It quickly increased to 10.99±0.15 (dry wt%) in April and dropped to 6.41±0.14% in May. Then, it slowly increased to 9.71±0.14% in August and maintained until October. Ginsenoside Re was most abundant in the leaf of P. ginseng, followed by Rd and Rg1. Ginsenosides Rf and Ro were not detected from the leaf. When compared to the previously reported root data, ginsenosides in the leaf appeared to be translocated to the root, especially in the early vegetative stage even though the metabolite translocated cannot be specified. The flux of ginsenoside R-Rh1 was similar to the other (20S)-PPT ginsenosides. When the compositional changes of each ginsenoside in the leaf was analyzed, complementary relationship was observed from ginsenoside Rg1 and Re, as well as from ginsenoside Rd and Rb1+Rc. Accordingly, ginsenoside Re in the leaf was proposed to be synthesized from ginsenoside Rg1. Similarly, ginsenosides Rb1 and Rc were proposed to be synthesized from Rd.

Background: Among the various ginseng strains, Shizhu ginseng is endemic to China, mainly distributed in Kuandian Manchu Autonomous County (Liaoning Province, China); however, not much is known about the compounds (especially saponins) in Shizhu ginseng. Methods: A rapid, sensitive, and reliable ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with MS/MS (UHPLC-MS/MS) method was developed to separate and identify saponins in Shizhu ginseng. Results: The separation was carried out on a Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH $C_{18}$ column ($100mm{\times}2.1mm$, $1.7{\mu}m$) with acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution as the mobile phase under a gradient elution at $40^{\circ}C$. The detection was performed on a Micromass Quattro Micro API mass spectrometer equipped with electrospray ionization source in both positive and negative modes. Under the optimized conditions, a total of 31 saponins were identified or tentatively characterized by comparing retention time and MS data with related literatures and reference substances. Conclusion: The developed UHPLC-MS/MS method was suitable for identifying and characterizing the chemical constituents in Shizhu ginseng, which provided a helpful chemical basis for further research on Shizhu ginseng.

Recently, a number of adulterated products, which are advertised as hair-growth enhancer have been emerged among those who suffer hair loss disease. For continuous control of illegal products, in this study, a rapid and sensitive method for simultaneous screening of 12 compounds that enhance hair-growth was established to protect public health by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS). Fragmentation pathways of them were proposed based on $MS^2$ spectral data obtained using the established method. In this analysis, the LODs and LOQs ranged from 0.05 to 50 ng/mL and from 0.17 to 167 ng/mL, respectively. The square of the linear correlation coefficient ($R^2$) was determined as more than 0.995. The intra- and inter-assay accuracies were respective 88-112 % and 88-115 %. Their precision values were measured within 5 % (intra-day) and 10 % (inter-day). Mean recoveries of target compounds in adulterated products ranged from 84 to 115%. The relative standard deviation of stability was less than 12 % at $4^{\circ}C$ for 48 h. The method was employed to screen 14 dietary supplements advertised to be effective for the treatment of hair loss. Some of the products (~21 %) were proven to contain synthetic drugs that promote hair growth such as triaminodil, minoxidil, and finasteride.

콩잎의 기능성식품소재연구가 활발히 진행되고 있지만 기능성 식품소재로서 콩잎을 관리할 수 있는 밸리데이션 방법은 제시되지 않고있다. 본 연구에서는 콩잎에서 7개의 kaempferol 유도체를 UHPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS로 동정하고 이들 중 camelliaside A를 지표물질로 선정하였다. 콩잎열수추출물에서 camelliaside A를 정량할 수 있는 HPLC-UVD 밸리데이션 방법을 식품의약품안전처의 건강기능성식품에 대한 가이드라인에 따라 구축하였다. 개발된 HPLC-UVD 밸리데이션 방법은 특이성, 정확도, 일내정밀도, 일간정밀도, 검출한계, 정량한계 및 직선성에서 가이드라인을 만족하는 결과값으로 검증되었다. 또한 camelliaside A 분석법을 콩잎열수추출물에 적용하여 적합한 수준의 평가값을 얻었다.
