Five known anthraquinones, physcion (1), I-O-methylemodin (2), emodin (3), $physcion-8-O-{\beta},-D-glucopyranoside$ (5), $emodin-8-O-{\beta},-D-glucopyranoside$ (6) and two known stilbenes, trans-resveratrol (4), $trans-resveratrol-3-O-{\beta},-D-glucopyranoside$ (7) were isolated from MeOH extract of Reynoutria sachalinensis (Polygonaceae). All structures were unambiguously established by 1D and 2D NMR and MS data and the compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against L1210, HL-60, BI6F10 tumor cell lines in MTT assay. Among the compounds, trans-resveratrol (4) exhibited significant cytotoxic activity with $IC_{50}$ values of 9.2, 6.7 and $9.8\;{\mu}g/ml$, against the test cell lines respectively, but compounds 1-3 exhibited the moderate cytotoxic activity.

Polygonum cuspidatum has been used as treatments of dermatitis, gonorrhea, inflammation, and hyperlipidaemia in traditional medicine. We examined liver protective effect on CCl$_4$ inducing hepatotoxicity and anti-oxidative activity by TBA method. Phytochemical examination of Polygonum cuspidatum led to the isolation and characterization of emodin 8-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (compound 1), and trans-resveratrol 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (compound 2). Compounds 1 and 2 enhanced the inhibition of anti-lipid peroxidative effects in liver homogenate. In chemical parameters obtained from serum analysis, compounds 1 and 2 also revealed significant decrease in hepatotoxicity. These results suggested that the antraquinone and stilbene which were isolated from Polygonum cuspidatum might be used as therapeutic agent of hepatitis.

Polygonum cuspidatum which is widely distributed in Korea has been used as treatments of dermatitis, gonorrhea, favus athlete's foot, hyperlipidemia and inflammation in traditional medicine. We examined anti-oxidant and antiinflammatory activity by measuring DPPH radical scavenging activity and the inhibition of IFN-${\gamma}$ and LPS-induced NO production in RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cells. We isolated and characterized resveratrol (1), trans-resveratrol 3-O-${\beta}$-Dglucopyranoside (2). Compounds 1 and 2 showed potent activities compared with L-NMMA ($N^G$-monomethyl-L-arginine). These results suggested that the stilbene compounds isolated from Polygonum cuspidatum might be used as antiinflammatory agents.

As a result of cytotoxic compounds against cancer cell lines from natural sources, senven compounds were isolated from the leaf and twig of Acer okamotoanum Nakai. The compounds (1-7) were identified as ethyl gallate (1), methyl gallate (2), gallic acid (3), trans $resveratrol-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (4), acertannin (5), nikoenoside (6), and fraxin (7) by physicochemical and spectroscopic data (including mp, UV, IR, MS, $^1H-NMR,\;^{13}C-NMR$, DEPT, and HMBC) in comparison with those of published papers. All the compounds were tested for their cytotoxic activity against L1210, HL-60, K562, and B16F10 cancer cell lines in vitro by MTT assay method. Compounds 1-3 and 5 showed cytotoxic activity against all tested cell lines with $IC_{50}$ values ranged from 12.5 to $72.2\;{\mu}M$. Of the compounds, methyl gallate (2) exhibited the most potent cytotoxic activity against L1210, HL-60, K562, and B16F10 tumor cells with $IC_{50}$ values of 12.5, 48.3, 22.8, and $22.8\;{\mu}M$, respectively. Other compounds did not show any cytotoxic activity against four cancer cell lines.
