Recently, the chemical diversity and functional significance of oxylipins is gaining significant attention. However, the functional significance of these compounds as anti-cancer agents remains largely uncharacterized. The objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive synthesis and analysis of the functional significance of plant oxylipins as anti-cancer agents to facilitate their exploitation in drug discovery and development.MethodsThis review was based on a thorough compilation and analysis of research work carried out on biological significance and implications of plant-derived anti-cancer oxylipins. Curation of data was based on several databases and resources such as Scopus, PubMed, DrugBank and PubChem. Within the context of the scope and subject matter as guided by the objective, no exclusion and inclusion criteria were necessarily employed in the screening of articles.ResultsThe present review explores the origins, anti-cancer properties and functional mechanisms of phyto-oxylipins. The potential functional significance of new and poorly characterized plant oxylipins have also been highlighted. The prospects of plant oxylipins in research, medicine and biotechnology that could optimize their potential are also explored. Insights into the promising avenues that may originate from innovative therapeutic approaches are also discussed.ConclusionDespite the rich source of oxylipins in plants, much of their potential as therapeutic agents for cancer treatment remains to be fully established. Clinical investigations are also needed to determine safe doses and effective delivery methods. Research into phyto-oxylipins require significant attention due to the promise it may hold in addressing key challenges in biotechnology, health, and environmental sustainability.","PeriodicalId":19019,"journal":{"name":"Natural Product Communications","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142177275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: This study employed network pharmacology and molecular docking to screen the core components, core targets, and pathways of JWJT. Additionally, HPLC fingerprint was established for 12 batches of JWJT. 12 batches of JWJT were evaluated using stoichiometry and common peaks were determined following a similarity assessment. The effective substances were selected to verify the index components of JWJT through assessing their control over glucose consumption in insulin-resistant HepG2 cells and their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Results: Through network pharmacology and molecular docking analysis, puerarin, calycosin, ellagic acid, kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside, and kaempferol were identified as core components of JWJT for treating T2DM. Key targets such as AKT1, PIK3R1, INSR, TNF, and EGFR were implicated in regulating pathways including HIF-1, MAPK, and PI3K-Akt in T2DM treatment. The HPLC fingerprints of 12 batches of JWJT samples revealed 10 common peaks, with puerarin, calycosin, ellagic acid, and kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside specifically identified among 4 chromatographic peaks. Using chemical pattern recognition, samples were categorized into two groups, with puerarin, calycosin, and ellagic acid identified as differential markers. Verification through glucose consumption in insulin-resistant HepG2 cells and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity confirmed that puerarin, calycosin, and ellagic acid were active ingredients suitable as quality control indicators for JWJT. Conclusion: The JWJT fingerprint method established in this study is both simple and reproducible. The selected index components will serve as the basis for quality control of JWJT and introduce a novel approach for selecting and verifying quality index components of JWJT in T2DM treatment.","PeriodicalId":19019,"journal":{"name":"Natural Product Communications","volume":"78 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142177276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite its significance, effective therapeutic strategies targeting MI/R-induced pyroptosis remain elusive in current clinical practice. Previous studies have demonstrated the promising anti-inflammatory effects of Angelica sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) in the context of certain inflammatory disorders. Objectives We aimed to investigate the effects of ASP on pyroptosis in MI/R injury and elucidate the potential molecular mechanisms by combining transcriptomic analysis with complementary in vivo and in vitro experiments. Materials and methods H9c2 cells were used to establish a hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model, and MI/R injury was induced in rats by ligating and releasing the left anterior coronary artery. Myocardial tissue samples were harvested for transcriptomic sequencing and bioinformatic analyses. Cardioprotective effects were evaluated through electrocardiography, echocardiography, and histological examination. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed to quantify levels of inflammatory mediators. Biochemical assays were conducted to assess myocardial injury biomarkers and Caspase-1 activity. Western blotting was performed to analyze the protein expression levels of Fibronectin 1 (FN1), Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p65, phosphorylated NF-κB p65 (p-NF-κB p65), Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), and Gasdermin-D (GSDMD). Results Pretreatment with ASP conferred potent cardioprotective effects in a rat model of MI/R injury, as evidenced by significant attenuation of infarct size, myocardial enzyme levels, and ST-segment elevation on electrocardiography, alongside notable improvements in cardiac function. Transcriptomic profiling unveiled that differentially expressed genes modulated by ASP treatment were predominantly implicated in the pyroptosis-elicited inflammatory response. Concordantly, both in vivo and in vitro experiments substantiated that ASP treatment effectively attenuated MI/R-induced pyroptosis, as manifested by diminished levels of pyroptosis-related indicators, encompassing the proportion of TUNEL-positive cells, Caspase-1 activation, GSDMD cleavage, and the liberation of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Further mechanistic investigations revealed ASP inhibition of the FN1/NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway. Conclusions Our investigation, leveraging system-level transcriptomic profiling, demonstrates that ASP confers cardioprotective effects against MI/R injury through the suppression of cardiomyocyte pyroptosis, culminating from downregulation of the FN1/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway.","PeriodicalId":19019,"journal":{"name":"Natural Product Communications","volume":"19 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147920920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work aims to evaluate the compositions and bioactivity of essential oil from AV grown in Tiengiang, Vietnam.MethodsThe essential oils (AVEO) were extracted by hydrodistillation (HD), and the headspace volatiles (HS) were collected using the static headspace technique. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was used to examine the compositions of oils in detail. The agar well-diffusion technique was used to conduct the antibacterial test. Multi-concentration dilution method was used for minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) determination. The cell viability was determined by the MTT method. Nitric oxide and TNF-α in RAW 264.7 were analyzed by Griess reagent or ELISA as described by the manufacturer. In addition, DPPH, ABTS, and reducing power assay were used to determine the antioxidant activity.ResultsThe HD method yielded 1,8-cineole, α-pinene, β -caryophyllene, borneol, camphor, and δ-elemene were the most abundant components. In contrast, the HS approach produced the primary constituents being camphor, 2-methylbutanal, 1,8-cineole, and camphene. The HD showed antibacterial activities against E.coli, S.typhimurium, S .aureus, P.aeruginosa, and S.mutans, and inhibited the production of NO, TNF-α in lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW264.7. Furthermore, the HD indicated moderate antioxidant activity. A hierarchical cluster analysis of essential oils from 22 regions shows that mugwort oils in Tiengiang, Vietnam, have a high level of δ-elemene (more than 5%), which is not common in oils from other species. The study's findings enhance our comprehension of the chemical components and chemical variety of mugwort oil across different sites and to help in the identification of the predominant species suitable for extracting essential oils for different purposes within the Artemisia vulgaris L. species.ConclusionThese findings collectively suggest that essential oils derived from A. vulgaris have a range of potential therapeutic uses.","PeriodicalId":19019,"journal":{"name":"Natural Product Communications","volume":"143 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142177292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
