Objective: The aim of the study was to isolate, purify and identify phytochemicals from the n- hexane extract of Teucrium hircanicum L. roots and evaluate the antioxidant activity of the extract and its purified compounds. Methods: The n- hexane extract (2.27 g) was extracted from the roots of this plant. The extract was fractionated by column chromatography with normal phase by eluting with n- hexane-EtOAc and following with EtOAc-Methanol. Fractions with similar phytochemical fingerprints combined to produce 23 main fractions. Final purification was carried out by preparative reversed-phase HPLC-UV. The structures of isolated were secured by different spectroscopic methods such as 1D, 2D NMR, and mass spectroscopy methods and comparing of these data with literature reported values. The antioxidant activity of the n- hexane extract of T. hircanicum roots and its purified diterpenoids was evaluated in DPPH assay and radical scavenging activity was calculated.

The aromatic aerial parts of this species are traditionally used by indigenous people to flavor some local foods, as well as for various therapeutic purposes. Objective: The present study was designed to analyze phenolic compounds and essential oil constituents of K . odoratissima fruits. Methods: The n -butanol fraction obtained from hydroalcoholic extract of K. odoratissima fruits was investigated by chromatography on normal phase and Sephadex LH-20 columns. Chemical structures of the isolated compounds were clarified by ¹H-NMR and ¹³C-NMR spectral analyses. Essential oil constituents of the fruits were also analyzed using GC-MS. Results: Phytochemical investigation of the K. odoratissima fruits resulted in the isolation of five flavonol glycosides; isorhamnetin 3-O-glucoside ( 1 ), quercetin 3-O-glucoside (isoquercetin) ( 2 ), isorhamnetin 3-O-rutinoside (narcissin) ( 3 ), isorhamnetin 3-O-glucuronide ( 4 ) and quercetin 3-O-glucuronide (mequilianin) ( 5 ).

Methods: A completely randomized design experiment with nine treatments consisting salicylic acid (40, 80, 160 and 320 mg/l), yeast extract (0.25, 0.75, 1 and 1.5 g/l) and distilled water (control) with three replications was carried out under greenhouse conditions. Results: In total, forty compounds were identified in the essential oils of the plant aerial parts.

Ang II stimulates multiple signal transduction pathways involved in hypertrophy including calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T cell (NFAT). Objective: The present study aimed to explore the possible anti-hypertrophic activity of ellagic acid against Ang II-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and the role of calcineurin/ NFAT signaling pathway in this action. Methods: H9c2 myocardial cells were treated with different concentrations of ellagic acid one hour before exposure to Ang II. Biological markers of cardiac hypertrophy including changes in cell size and protein content, and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) protein expression were assessed using light microscopy, Bradford method and western blotting, respectively. The effects of ellagic acid on the protein expression of calcineurin and nuclear localization of NFATc4 were also investigated using western blotting and immunofluorescence assay, respectively. Results: The results showed that pretreatment with ellagic acid could efficiently prevent Ang II-induced hypertrophic response which was associated with changes in hypertrophy-related biomarkers including increase in cell size and protein content, and ANP overexpression. Moreover, ellagic acid inhibited Ang II-induced calcineurin up-regulation and nuclear localization of NFATc4. Conclusion: In summary, our findings showed that ellagic acid effectively inhibited Ang II-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. This is the first report demonstrating the role of calcineurin/NFAT pathway inhibition in this protective effects. Future in vivo studies are required to elucidate if ellagic acid could ameliorate cardiac hypertrophy and its transition to heart failure.","PeriodicalId":16582,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medicinal Plants","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70688774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the literature, DR cultivation was originally developed in the Layzangan valley, Darab region of Fars province in Iran. Objective: In this study, quality control and standardization of Layazangan DR flowers were investigated. Methods: Histological, physicochemical, and heavy metal analysis as well as the chromatographic fingerprints including GC-MS and HPLC analysis were studied. Results: According to the microscopic observations, secretory and simple trichromes in sepal, rosette crystals in ovule, and the tricolporate shape of pollen grain were found to be the major characteristics in DR flowers. The results of heavy metal analysis revealed that the amounts of zinc (82.5 ppm), copper (4.02 ppm), lead (0.11 ppm), and cadmium (not detected) were less than maximum permitted amounts. The essential oil of fresh petals was obtained by hydro-distillation and was analyzed by GC-MS method. Twenty-three components were identified representing 98.66 % of the total essential oil composition. Citronellol (41.44 %), nonadecane (16.44 %), and heneicosane (10.58 %) were the main components. According to HPLC analysis results, quercetin was determined as 7300.5 μg/g dried DR petals. Conclusion: The essential oil obtained from Layzangan DR is rich in citronellol compound. On the other hand, the diagnostic characteristics presented in this study can help in better quality control and standardization of DR samples.
