Berberine, palmatine, and Phellodendron bark dye was prepared in methanol for HPLC-DAD-MS analysis of liquid dye. Silk was dyed using berberine, palmatine, and Phellodendron bark dye prepared in water. The dye was extracted from the dyed silk using the HCl/methanol/water (2:1:1 v/v/v) solvent system with a slight modification. The liquid dyes and the dye extracted from the silk samples dyed with the three dye sources were examined using the HPLC-DAD-MS analysis to simultaneously detect berberine and palmatine from the plant dye and the dyeings. Colorimetric measurement was carried out using a spectrophotometer to examine the color and the intensities of berberine, palmatine, and Phellodendron bark dyed silk samples. From the liquid dyes, berberine eluted at 5.21 min with the molecular cation m/z=336 and the UV spectrum confirming that the product was berberine. Palmatine eluted at 5.12 min with the molecular cation m/z=352 and the UV spectrum confirming that the product was palmatine. From the silk dyed with berberine and palmatine dye, berberine and palmatine species eluted at 5.35 min and 5.24 min, respectively. From the silk dyed with Phellodendron bark, berberine and palmatine were detected simultaneously at 5.35 min and 5.26 min, respectively. All three dyes had yellow hue while palmatine dyed silk showed the highest hue and chroma. Palmatine dyed silk showed the highest K/S value that indicated the strongest color intensity and the highest dye uptake.

The dyeing behaviors of berberine chloride, palmatine chloride hydrate, and Phellodendron bark extract on silk fabric were investigated to evaluate palmatine as another chromophoric substance of Phellodendron bark. The dyeing conditions were composed of combinations of pH (3, 5, 7, 9), temperature (10, 30, 55, $80^{\circ}C$), and time (10, 30, 60 min). The results indicate that palmatine was comparable to berberine in the dyeing behaviors tested for this study and the results were statistically significant. The dye exhaustion and dye uptake of palmatine-CH were slightly lower than berberine-C, which however were not statistically significant. Similar to berberine-C, palmatine-CH favored a pH 7 condition for both dye exhaustion and dye uptake. However, palmatine-CH favors a higher dyeing temperature and longer dyeing time than berberine-C for superior dyeing results.

Previously, protoberberine alkaloids such as berberine and palmatine have been found to lower dopamine content in PC12 cells (Shin et at., 2000). In this study, the effects of berberine and palmatine on L-DOPA-induced increase in dopamine level and cytotoxicity in PC12 cells were investigated. Treatment of PC12 with L-DOPA at concentration ranges of 20∼50 $\mu$M increased dopamine content and the increase in dopamine levels by L-DOPA was inhibited by 10∼40 $\mu$M berberine and 10∼80 $\mu$M palmatine, which the concentration ranges did not show a cytotoxicity. However, berberine and palmatine at concentrations higher than 50 $\mu$M and 100 $\mu$M caused a cytotoxicity, respectively. In addition, berberine (10∼20 $\mu$M) and palmatine (10∼50 $\mu$M) at non-cytotoxic concentration ranges aggravated L-DOPA-induced cytotoxicity in PC12 cells (L-DOPA concentration ranges, 20∼50 $\mu$M). The L-DOPA-induced cytotoxicity was also significantly potentiated by berberine (50 $\mu$M) and palmatine (100 $\mu$M) with cytotoxic ranges. These data demonstrate that berberine and palmatine inhibit L-DOPA-induced increase in dopamine content and stimulate L-DOPA-induced neurotoxicity. Therefore, the possibility that the long-term L-DOPA treated patients with berberine and palmatine could be checked the adverse symptoms.

Palmatine, an protoberberine isoquinoline alkaloid, has been found to inhibit dopamine biosynthesis by reducing tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) activity in PC12 cells (Lee and Kim, 1996). We have therefore investigated the effects of palmatine on bovine adrenal TH. Palmatine showed a mild inhibition on bovine adrenal TH (36.4% inhibition at concentration of $200\muM$). Bovine adrenal TH was inhibited competitively by palmatine with a substrate L-tyrosine. The Ki value was found to be 0.67 mM. This result suggests that the inhibition of TH activity by palmatine may be partially involved in the reduction of dopamine biosynthesis in PC12 cells.

황련 추출물의 충치 예방효과 가능성을 확인하고자 S. mutans JC-2에 대하여 황련 추출물 및 그의 주요 활성성분의 항균효과, 산생성 억제효과, GTase 활성 억제효과, 균체부착 억제효과를 조사하였다. 메탄올 추출물은 물추물에 비하여 S. mutans에 대해 강한 항균효과를 나타내었으며, 이들 추출물의 S. mutans에 대한 최소저지농도(MIC)는 각각 $130\;{\mu}g/mL$, $200\;{\mu}g/mL$이었다. 황련의 주요 활성성분인 berberine과 palmatine의 MIC는 각각 $50\;{\mu}g/mL$, $110\;{\mu}g/mL$로 황련 추출물에 비하여 강한 항균활성을 나타내었다. 메탄올 추출물, berberine, palmatine을 $121^{\circ}C$, 15분간 열처리했을 때 항균효과가 전혀 감소하지 않아, 열에 매우 안정함이 확인되었다. S. mutans의 산생성에 대해서도 MIC 농도에서 메탄올 추출물, berberine, palmatine 모두 배양 24시간째에 산생성을 완전하게 억제하였다. GTase 활성 억제효과는 $300\;{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 메탄올 추출물, berberine, palmatine이 각각 23.2, 46.1, 17.1%의 억제율을 보였고, 물 추출물은 억제효과가 없었다. 반면에 S. mutans의 부착에 대해서는 생장 부분저해농도에서 물 추출물과 메탄올 추출물, beberine, palmatine의 경우 저해율이 각각 59.2%, 13.3%. 4.2%, 41.7%로써 물 추출물과 palmatine이 높은 저해율을 나타내었다. 이상의 결과로부터 황련 추출물의 충치억제효과는 주요 활성성분인 berberine과 palmatine의 S. mutans에 대한 항균효과, GTase 활성억제와 균체 부착 억제효과 등에 기인한 것이라 여겨지며, 황련 추출물이 충치예방을 위한 기능성 천연소재로서 매우 우수한 것으로 판단되었다.

본 연구의 목적은 예로부터 약재로 사용되어 온 황백의 대표적인 지표물질 berberine 및 palmatine의 동시 분석법을 개발 및 검증하고 지표물질들의 항산화 효능을 평가하여 해당 물질들에 대한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 표준물질들의 동시 분석법은 특이성, 직선성, 정확성, 정밀성, 검출한계 및 정량한계를 측정하여 신뢰성을 검증하였으며, 지표물질들의 항산화 활성은 FRAP 활성, reducing power 및 아질산염 소거능 실험으로 측정하였다. HPLC-PDA를 이용하여 berberine과 palmatine의 혼합용액을 분석하였을 때, 두 물질이 간섭 없이 선택적으로 분리되었음을 확인하였다. Berberine 및 palmatine의 검량선의 상관계수 값은 모두 0.9999로 우수한 직선성을 보여 분석에 적합함을 알 수 있었고 정확성과 정밀성은 농도를 알고 있는 황백 시료에 인위적으로 저농도, 중농도, 고농도의 표준물질 혼합용액을 첨가하여 계산하였다. 정밀성과 정확성은 일간실험 및 일내실험으로 확인하였다. Berberine의 일간 및 일내 정밀성은 1.27-1.93%, 0.12-0.56%의 수준으로 나타났고, palmatine의 일간 및 일내 정밀성은 0.19-2.89%, 0.36-1.52%로 % 이하의 우수한 정밀성을 나타냈으며, berberine의 일간 및 일내 정확성은 98.43-100.73%, 99.56-101.45%로 나타났고 palmatine의 일간 및 일내 정확성은 93.20-100.60%, 92.39-97.10%로 나타났다. Berberine과 palmatine의 검출한계는 각각 0.32 µg/mL, 0.35 µg/mL로 확인되었고 정량한계는 0.97 µg/mL, 1.06 µg/mL로 확인되었다. 분석법 검증결과, 확립된 분석법은 특이성, 직선성, 정밀성, 정확성, 검출한계 및 정량한계가 모두 우수한 분석법임을 검증할 수 있었다. 항산화 활성은 FRAP 활성, reducing power 및 berberine과 palmatine 모두 농도 의존적으로 활성이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 황백은 추후 항산화에 도움을 주는 소재로의 적용 및 항염증 효과로 인한 피부 기능개선 제품의 소재로서 활용도가 넓을 것으로 사료되며, 황백 내에 존재하는 항산화물질인 berberine 및 palmatine의 동시분석법을 통하여 성분의 함량을 분석하여 효능을 확인할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the most important factor of gastric disease in clinical practice. Moreover, smoking, stress and a poor diet may be additive factors for gastric damage. With these factors, increasing infection of H. pylori triggers gastritis, gastric ulcers and gastric cancer. To develop a new protective agent, we are concerned with plant-derived extract. The extract of Coptis chinensis (C. chinensis) and its constituents were investigated to assess their protective activities against gastric damage. The C. chinensis extract showed a scavenging effect against 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and superoxide radicals, inhibition of H. pylori colonization and antiulcerogenic activities in rat. In particular, palmatine derived from C. chinensis was found to be the novel protective agent. It is better than the C. chinensis extract, berberine, a well-known constituent of C. chinensis. We suggest that palmatine from the root cortex of C. chinensis may be a good candidate for the development of new pharmaceuticals to prevent gastric disease.

The effects of protoberberine compounds on serotonin biosynthesis in P815 cells were investigated. Protoberberine compounds such as berberine, palmatine and coralyne decreased serotonin content dose-dependently, but coptisine did not. The $IC_{50}$ values of berberine, palmatine and coralyne were $3.0\;{\mu}M,\;16.5\;{\mu}M\;and\;14.5\;{\mu}M$, respectively. Protoberberine compounds at concentrations up to $20\;{\mu}M$ were not cytotoxic towards P815 cells. The activity of tryptophan hydroxylase, a ratelimiting enzyme in serotonin biosynthesis, was inhibited by the exposure of berberine, palmatine and coralyne in P815 cells (14.9-19.3% inhibition at $2-15\;{\mu}M$), but that of aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase was not. These results suggest that the inhibition of tryptophan hydroxylase activity by berberine, palmatine and coralyne might partially contribute to the decrease in serotonin content in P815 cells.

Vascular relaxation action of crude extracts of two kinds of Coptidis rhizoma (Coptis chinensis and Coptis japonica, Ranunculaceae) was investigated and compared with that of berberine and palmatine, active alkaloid components of these plants. The results show that total extracts, berberine, and palmatine induced a concentration-dependent vasodilatation of rat thoracic aorta contracted with phenylephrine (PE). Palmatine, unlike to berberine, did not inhibit contraction induced by KCI. In calcium-free media, not only berberine but also crude extracts inhibited calcium-induced contraction. Furthermore, pretreatment of crude extracts inhibited contraction induced by PE noncompetitively. In PE-induced contraction, berberine was 2.5 times more potent than Coptis chinensis in the relaxation of rat aorta in terms of $IC_{50}$ values. Analysis of the effects of crude extracts on the Emax and $IC_{50}(PE)IC_{50}(KCI)$ ratios provides information on selectivity and indicates that extracts exhibit greater inhibition of the contrac tile response induced by PE than by KCI. We concluded that crude extracts have .alpha.-adrenoceptor blocking action and possesses inhibitory effect on calcium influx, which may be at least in part responsible for the antihypertensive action.

This research investigated the dyeing behavior of palmatine (a major coloring compound of Phellodendron bark in addition to berberine) using mercerization (M), tannic acid (T), mercerization-tannic acid (MT), and tannic acid -mercerization (TM) pretreatments. Mercerization was conducted using $20^{\circ}C$ of 20% NaOH for 5 minutes. Tannic acid treatment was conducted using 15% o.w.f. solution of tannic acid at $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes and fixed with potassium antimonyl tartrate trihydrate. Dyeing was conducted using 1% o.w.f. palmatine chloride hydrate with 1:100 liquor ratio at $10-95^{\circ}C$ for 10-60 minutes in a dyebath of pH 3-9. MT method resulted in the highest dye uptake and was two times higher than the average dye uptake of T method. MT method provided the best result when the dyeing temperature was $80^{\circ}C$ or $95^{\circ}C$ and the dyeing time was 60 minutes. The pH of the dyebath had less effect on the dye uptake but a pH higher than 5 provided better results. The study confirmed that palmatine is a major coloring compound of Phellodendron bark and that the MT method can be used as a successful cotton dyeing method.
