Gallic acid was isolated from Caesalpinia mimosoides Lamk and the structure s identified based on spectroscopic analysis and comparison with authentic compound. In this study we compared the ability of natural gallic acid (nGA) and commercial gallic acid (cGA) to inhibit the proliferation of cholangiocarcinoma cell lines (M213, M214) and foodborne pathogenic bacteria (Salmonella spp. and Plesiomonas shigelloides). Both nGA and cGA had the same inhibitory effects on cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis of cholangiocarcinoma cell lines. In addition, nGA inhibited growth of foodborne pathogenic bacteria in the same manner as cGA. Our results suggest that nGA from Caesalpinia mimosoides Lamk is a potential anticancer and antibacterial compound. However, in vivo studies are needed to elucidate the specific mechanisms involved.

Scutellariae Radix has been widely used as oriental herbal medicine for the treatment of bacterial infections in the respiratory or the gastrointestinal tract. In partition experiment for better understanding of herbal medicine with various solvents, baicalein or wogonin have more hydrophobic characteristics than baicalin or wogonoside. Unexpectedly, methylene chloride could extract more for baicalin or wogonoside over other active ingredients. New compound from baicalin is discovered casting frointier area on herbal medicine in the future. Application study with new molecule hydrolyzed from baicalin is on the way for better treatment of the patient against specific disease. The baicalin modified with reaction has been shown weak antibacterial activity against Streptococcus pyogenes 308A and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 1771. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the baicalin modified compound against those strains were about $600\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. In vitro antitumor experiment, $EC_{50}$ of baicalin modified with reaction was more than $300\;{\mu}g/mL$ and $EC_{50}$ of baicalein was $100\;{\mu}g/mL$. Among these compounds, baicalin exhibited high level of antitumor activity. $EC_{50}$ of baicalin was less than $33.3\;{\mu}g/mL$.

본 실험에서는 만성위염, 위궤양, 십이지장궤양, 위암발생의 원인균으로 알려진 H. pylori를 저해하는 특이항균물질을 생성하는 균주를 토양에서 분리한 방선균액과 곰팡이 추출액을 대상으로 탐색하여 곰팡이 균주번호 60686을 선별하였다. Jar fermentor로 배양하여 얻은 균체를 acetone 및 EtOAc로 추출하였고, 얻어진 추출액을 silica column chromatography와 LH-20 gel chromatography를 수행하여 활성분획을 농축하였고 HPLC를 사용하여 항균 활성을 나타내는 단일물질 IDA를 분리 정제하였다. 항균 활성물질 IDA의 구조를 MS, NMR 분석등을 통해 추정한 결과 곰팡이의 2차 대사산물인 cytochalasan의 전형적 구조를 갖는 분자식 $C_{32}H_{36}N_2O_5$의 chaetoglobosin A라는 물질로 판명되었다. 항균물질 IDA의 항균력을 paper disk법으로 실험한 결과 그람양성 균주중에서는 S. aureus SG 511, 285와 503 3주에서만 항균력을 보였고, 그람음성 균주중에서는 H. pylori 4주에서만 항균력을 보였으나 동일농도 처리시 H. pylori에 대한 항균력이 S. aureus에 비해 우수한 항균효과를 가진다고 판단되었다.

We compared the antibacterial activities of spermidine and astaxanthin against two gram-positive bacteria such as Streptococcus parauberis and S. iniae to find new antibacterial candidates. We also evaluated the preventive effects of spermidine against oxidative stress-induced cytotoxicity in C2C12 myoblasts. Our results indicated that spermidine has more significant antibacterial activities than astaxanthin against both two fish pathogenic bacteria as well as gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli used as a control group. Minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration of spermidine were 0.25 mM and 1 mM against S. parauberis, 1 mM and 3 mM against S. iniae, and 0.5 mM and 1.5 mM against E. coli, respectively. In addition, the postantibiotic effect lasted from 7 h, 5 h and 6 h for S. parauberis, S. iniae and E. coli, respectively. The results also showed that the decreased C2C12 cell viability by H₂O₂ could be attributed to the induction of DNA damage and apoptosis accompanied by the increased production of reactive oxygen species, which was remarkably protected by spermidine. Additionally, the antioxidant effect of spermidine was associated with the activation of Nrf2 signaling pathway. According to the data, spermidine may be a potential lead compound which can be further optimized to discover novel antibacterial and antioxidant agents.

Dihydrofolate reductases (DHFR) of human, Candida albicans and E. coli were docked with their original ligands of X-ray crystal complex using QXP (Quick eXPlore), a docking program. Conditions to reproduce the crystal structures within the root mean square deviation (rmsd) of 2.00 $\AA$ were established. Applying these conditions, binding modes and species-specificities of a novel antibacterial compound, $N^4-(2-acetoxyethoxymethyl)-2-acetylpyridine$ thiosemicarbazone (MTSC), were studied. As the results, the docking program reproduced the crystal structures with average rmsd of six ligands as 0.91 $\AA$ ranging from 0.49 to 1.45 $\AA$. The interactions including the numbers of hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions were the same as the crystal structures and superposition of the crystal and docked structures almost coincided with each other. For AATSC, the results demonstrated that it could bind to either the substrate or coenzyme sites of DHFR in all three species with different degrees of affinity. It confirms the experimentally determined kinetic behavior of uncompetitive inhibition against either the inhibitor or the coenzyme. The docked MTSC overlapped well with the original ligands and major interactions were consistent with the ones in the crystal complexes. The information generated from this work should be useful for future development of antibacterial and antifungal agents.

Macelignan is a bioactive compound isolated from nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Houtt.) which has been traditionally used for the food and pharmaceutical purposes. In this study, the activities of macelignan against vegetative cells and spores of Bacillus cereus were evaluated in vitro. Our results showed that the vegetative cells of B. cereus were significantly inhibited in growth by macelignan with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of $4{\mu}g/mL$. The vegetative cells of B. cereus were completely killed with minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of $8{\mu}g/mL$ of macelignan. Killing time of macelignan against vegetative cells of B. cereus was very fast; endpoint of macelignan was reached after 4 hr of incubation at $4{\times}MIC$. Macelignan inactivated more than 3-log (99.9%) of spores/mL of B. cereus at the concentration of $100{\mu}g/mL$. Macelignan was found to be effective against vegetative cells and spores of B. cereus. These results suggest that macelignan might be good to be developed as a food preservative.
