The methanol extracts of AraIia elata showed antimicrobial activity against bacteria. The antimicrobial active principle was successively purified with solvent fractionation, silica gel adsorption column chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, silica gel partition column chromatography and HPLC. The active substance was isolated by HPLC on $C_{18}$ column with an acetic acid-MeOH system. The active substance was identified as trans-4-hydroxycinnamic acid by MS, $^1H-NMR\;and\;^{13}C-NMR$.

Phenolic acid concentrates of rice bran(RB-ex) and hydroxycinnamic acids were investigated for their anti-hyperglycemic activities through glucose uptake and glucokinase activity using HepG2 cells and stimulatory effects on insulin secretion using HIT-T15 cells. RB-ex was prepared as an ethylacetate extract after alkaline hydrolysis and hydroxycinnamic acids, found as major compositions of RB-ex, such as ferulic acid(FA), sinapic acid(SA) and p-coumaric acid(p-CA) were investigated to compare with the properties of RB-ex. The properties of glucose uptake in HepG2 cells were examined in the absence of insulin and two different glucose concentrations(5.5 mM and 25 mM). RB-ex and FA showed anti-hyperglycemic activities through the increase of glucose uptake and the stimulation of glucokinase activity in HepG2 cells. RB-ex exhibited higher glucose uptakes with higher glucose concentrations, whereas FA exhibited the same increasing effects on both concentrations of glucose. RB-ex and FA exhibited doubled glucokinase activities relative to control. In the presence of insulin in the 25 mM glucose-containing medium, the levels of glucose uptake were increased in all treatments compared with control. As stimulatory effects of samples on insulin secretion were estimated, RB-ex and FA stimulated insulin secretion at a concentration of 25 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$ and in particular, FA showed the highest amount of insulin-release in HIT-T15 cells. Antioxidative effects on HIT-T15 cells, RB-ex and hydroxycinnamic acids, excluding p-CA, showed inhibitory activities of 78% to 80% at a concentration of 100 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$. On the basis of these results, we conclude that RB-ex and FA could help decrease blood glucose levels and prevent the cell damages via antioxidant activity.

hydroxycinnamic acid인 ferulic acid와 caffeic acid는 강력한 식물성 항산화제 이다. DPPH 수용액에서 이들의 자유라디칼 소거능과 높은 온도, 금속 이온과 같은 산화촉진 요인에 대한 화학적 안정성 등을 살펴보았다. 아스코르빅 산의 안정성 향상을 위해 ferulic acid와 caffeic acid를 아스코르빅산 수용액에 첨가하였다. 아스코르빅 산의 안정성 향상은 시간경과에 따른 $SC_{50}$ 값의 변화로부터 확인하였다. 아스코르빅 산을 ferulic acid 또는 caffeic acid와 조합하여 BGsome 안에 포집시켜본 결과, 아스코르빅 산의 안정성이 순수한 용액 상태로 있을 때에 비해 크게 향상되었다.

옥수수겨로부터 분리 정제한 하이드록시신나믹애씨드 유도체(hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives)는 p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, N,N'-dicoumaroylputrescine (DCP), N-p-coumaroyl-N'-feruloylputrescine (CFP), N,N'-diferuloylputrescine (DFP) 등으로 분석이 되었으며, 옥수수겨추출물은 이들을 각각 함유하고 있었다. 본 연구는 천연 미백 소재 개발을 위하여 옥수수겨에서 유래한 화합물인, 하이드록시신나믹애씨드유도체의 멜라닌 생성에 연관된 생리활성을 알아보았다. 하이드록시신나믹애씨드유도체들의 B16-F1 melanoma cells에서의 멜라닌 생합성 저해효과는 농도 의존적으로 저해하여 CFP, DFP 50 ${\mu}g/$ mL에서 각각 44.7 ${\pm}$ 6.0 %, 58.5 ${\pm}$ 3.1 %의 저해율을 보였다. 그리고 세포 내 tyrosinase의 활성은 각각 42.5 ${\pm}$ 14.6 %, 9.0 ${\pm}$ 4.4 %의 저해효과를 보였다. 이러한 결과를 볼 때, 옥수수겨 유래 하이드록시신나믹애씨드 유도체들은 세포 내 tyrosinase의 활성을 억제함으로써 멜라닌 생성을 감소시키는 것으로 사료되며, 미백 효능을 갖는 천연 화장품 소재로서의 개발 가능성이 클 것으로 기대된다.

헛개나무 어린 줄기와 잎의 열수추출물에서 얻어진 MeOH 가용 획분에 항미생물 및 항산화 활성을 보여, 이들 활성 본체를 규명하고자 활성물질을 solvent fractionation, silica gel adsorption column chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, ODS column chromatography로 순차정제하고, HPLC등에 의해 두 종의 활성물질을 단리하여 LC-MS, GC-MS 분석에 의해 vanillic acid와 ferulic acid로 각각 동정하였다. 두 활성물질은 그람 양성 세균 및 그람 음성 세균 그리고 효모 등의 미생물에 항균 활성을 보였다. 또한, vanillic acid와 ferulic acid의 항산화 활성은 vanillic acid보다 ferulic acid가 강한 활성을 나타내, DPPH 자유라디칼 소거능을 나타내는 농도는 ferulic acid가 $14\;{\mu}g/mL(SC_{50})$을, 그리고 vanillic acid가 $8\;{\mu}g/mL(SC_{10})$이었다.

Vitis vinifera cv. Koshu is a traditional grape cultivar that has been grown for centuries in Japan. The Koshu grape has pink-colored skin and Koshu wines have slight astringency. We demonstrated for the first time the characterization of hydroxycinnamic acids, flavan-3-ols, and flavonoids in Koshu grape using high-performance liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The gross weight of phenolic compounds excluding anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins in Koshu grape at harvest was higher than those in Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Merlot grapes. In addition, hydroxycinnamic acid and monomeric flavonol contents in Koshu grape were also higher than those in the other grape cultivars. Transcription analysis of cinnamic acid 4-hydroxylase, p-coumarate 3-hydroxylase, caffeate methyltransferase, and flavonol synthase genes indicated high accumulation of hydroxycinnamic acids and flavonols in Koshu grape skin compared with the other cultivars. These findings obtained by chemical and molecular approaches partially explained the phenolic characteristics and the peculiar astringency of Koshu grape.

From the lees of bokbunja wine (LBW) made from Rubus coreanus Miquel, we have identified six compounds (1: trans-4-hydroxycinnamic acid; 2: trans-4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamic acid; 3: 3,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid; 4: 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzoic acid; 5: 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxybenzoic acid; and 6: 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (sinapic acid)) through silica gel chromatography and UHPLC-MS. The compounds 1-6 showed strong anticoagulation and platelet aggregation inhibitory activities without hemolytic effect against human red blood cells. To date, this is the first report of the in vitro anti-thrombosis activity of sinapic acid. Our results suggest that different cinnamic and benzoic acid derivatives are closely linked to the anti-thrombosis activity of LBW, and sinapic acid could be developed as a promising anti-thrombosis agent.

대파에 함유된 항산화 물질을 구명하고자 대파를 3가지 다른 방법으로 추출하여 대파 착즙액, 열수추출물, MeOH 추출물을 얻었다. 이들 추출물을 각각 용매분획하여 얻어진 EtOAc 가용 산성획분을 silica gel adsorption column chromatography로 정제하여 얻어진 활성획분을 GC-MS 분석하였다. 그 결과, 대파 착즙액과 열수추출물에서는 succinic acid ,fumaric acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzoic acid, 4-hydroxycinnamic acid 그리고 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamic acid의 6종 화합물이 동정되었으며, MeOH 추출물로부터는 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzoic acid, 4-hydroxycinnamic acid, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-cinnamic acid의 4종 화합물이 동정되었다. 동정된 이들 화합물을 대상으로 DPPH radical-scavenging 활성을 검정한 결과, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamic acid가 가장 강한 항산화 활성을 나타냈다. 또한 각각의 대파추출물에 함유된 항산화 물질의 함량을 GC에 의해 정량분석한 결과, 대파 착즙액과 열수추출물 및 MeOH 추출물 모두 강한 항산화 활성을 나타내는 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamic acid가 가장 많이 함유되어 있었다.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder on the large intestine that has been considered as an incurable not only in Western society but also in Eastern Asia in recent years. Despite enormous efforts to develop novel therapeutics for this disease, strategy using bioactive compounds from natural product is still considered as important. p-hydroxycinnamic acid (HCA) is an intermediate substance found in several plants and has been known to possess anti-inflammation but little evidence is reported whether HCA has an inhibitory effect on intestinal inflammation. In the present study, we observed HCA does not show cytotoxic and apoptotic in HT-29 cells. Quantitative PCR analysis revealed that HCA effectively blocks the activity of HT-29 cells stimulated with TNF-α treatment. HCA inhibits translocation of p65 and MAPK pathways in activated HT-29 cells by TNF-α treatment. Besides, oral administration of HCA attenuates manifestation of DSS-induced inflammatory disease in vivo. Histological analysis exhibited that oral administration of HCA recovers IBD symptoms. The expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines were reduced by oral administration of HCA on intestinal tissues. Therefore, these results suggest that HCA has a potent anti-inflammatory effect on intestinal cells as well as show a therapeutic potential for treating IBD in vivo.
