Further phytochemical investigation on the whole plant of Thyrsanthera suborbicularis, collected in Cambodia, led to kaempferol (1), vitexin (2), apigenin-7-O-neohesperidoside (3), chrysoeriol-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (4), isorhamnetin 3-O-rutinoside (5), kaempferol-3-O-[${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(13)-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(16)-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside (6), kaempferol-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranosyl(12)-O-[${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (16)]-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (7), kaempferol-3-O-[6"-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl]-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (8), kaempferol-3-O-[6"-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl]-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside (9), and amentoflavone (10). All the structures were confirmed by the interpretation of NMR (1D and 2D) and MS data, and comparison with the published values. Of the isolated compounds 1 - 10, compounds 8 and 10 displayed the inhibitory activity against NO production in LPS-induced Raw 264.7 cells with $IC_{50}$ values, 3.56 and $15.73{\mu}M$, respectively.

Five secoiridoids (1-3, 5, 10), a iridoid (4) three flavonol glycosides (7-9) and a coumarin (6), were isolated from the flowers of Hydrangea paniculata. Their chemical structures were elucidated as kingiside (1), morroniside (2), sweroside (3), loganin (4), vogeloside (5), umbelliferone (6), quercetin-3-O-sambubioside (7), quercetin-3-O-neohesperidoside (8), kaempferol 3-O-sambubioside (9) and secologanin dimethyl acetal (10), respectively, by spectroscopic analysis. All isolated compounds 1-10 were assessed for their ability to induce C2C12 myotube hypertrophy. Among them, loganin (4) and kaempferol 3-O-sambubioside (9) increase the diameter of C2C12 myotubes. All isolated compounds 1-10 were firstly reported from the flowers of Hydrangea paniculata, and the skeletal muscle hypertrophic activity of 4 and 9 was also reported for the first time.

Six compounds were isolated from the BuOH soluble fraction of the leaves of Staphylea bumalda. On the basis of spectral data, they were identified as atragalin (1), $2-methyl-5,\;7-dihydroxy-chromone-7-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (2), isoquercitrin (3), nicotiflorin (4), kaempferol 3-neohesperidoside (5), kaempferol $3-O-[{\alpha}-rhamno-pyranosyl-(1\;{\to}\;4)-rhamnopyranosyl-(1\;{\to}\;6)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside]$ (6), respectively.

In this study, the antioxidative effects and component analysis of 50% ethanol extract, ethyl acetate fraction and aglycone fraction obtained from Annona muricata leaf were investigated. Free radical scavenging activities were performed by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, total antioxidant capacities were estimated using luminol-dependent chemiluminescence assay and $^1O_2$ quenching effects were estimated. Free radical scavenging activities ($FSC_{50}$) of 50% ethanol extract, ethyl acetate fraction and aglycone fraction were 45.6, 29.8 and $18.0{\mu}g/mL$, and total antioxidant capacities ($OSC_{50}$) were 4.4, 1.1 and $2.8{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. As a result of $^1O_2$ quenching experiment, ethyl acetate and aglycone fraction showed similar activities to L-ascorbic acid used as a comparative control. The cellular protective effects of 50% ethanol extract on the $^1O_2-induced$ cellular damage of human erythrocytes were exhibited at concentration-dependent ($5-50{\mu}g/mL$). TLC and HPLC were used to analyse components in the ethyl acetate fraction and aglycone fraction of Annona muricata leaf. In ethyl acetate fraction, rutin (quercetin-3-O-rutinoside), kaempferol-3-O-neohesperidoside, nicotiflorin (kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside), p-coumaric acid were identified. In aglycone fraction, kaempferol was identified. These results suggest that the extracts of Annona muricata leaf have the applicability as antioxidant cosmeceutical ingredients.

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.

Achillea sibirica Ledeb. is widely distributed in Korea and has been often used as folk medicine in peptic and tonic. As one of our searches for bioactive (anti oxidation) compounds from medicinal plants, we studied Achillea sibirica Ledeb. (Compositae). Antioxidant activity of Achillea sibirica was determined by measuring lipid peroxide produced when a mouse liver homogenate was exposed at $90^{\circ}C$ using 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and by evaluation the radical scavenging activity on 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. Whole parts of Achillea sibirica was extracted with methanol and its extracts was fractionated with organic solvent; n-Hexane, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, n-Butanol. EtOAc fraction exhibited antioxidant activity and From its, two flavonoid glycosides were isolated by silica gel and gel filtration colume chromatography and identified to kampferol 3-O-glucoside and luteolin 7-O-neo-hesperidoside, respectively, by physico-chemical and spectroscopical method. At antioxidant activity test for two compounds isolated, antioxidant activity was showed too. And from hexane fraction sterol was is isolated and identificated to mixture of campesterol, stigmasterol, and ${\beta}-sitosterol$.
