A novel icariin type flavonoid from Epimedium pseudowushanense

A novel icariin type flavonoid glycoside with a malonaldehydic acid intramolecular ester and two known flavonoid glycosides were isolated from Epimedium pseudowushanense. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and comparison of their data to the values reported in the literatures. The anti-inflammatory activities of these compounds icariin 3′′′-O-malonaldehydic acid intramolecular 1′′′′, 2′′′ ester (1), icariin (2) and epimedin C (3) were tested. The results indicated that compounds 1, 2 and 3 showed maximal inhibitory ratio of 27.91, 44.80 and 46.61%, respectively in in vitro anti-inflammatory activity on LPS-induced TNF-α secretion in RAW264.7 cells. Compounds icariin (2) and epimedin C (3) were found to inhibit the secretion of TNF-α to a comparable degree as quercetin.     

An Efficient Ionic Liquid-Mediated Extraction and Enrichment of Isoimperatorin from Ostericum koreanum (Max.) Kitagawa

Ionic liquids (ILs) have attracted significant interest because of their desirable properties. These characteristics have improved their application to overcome the shortcomings of conventional separation techniques for phytochemicals. In this study, several ILs were investigated for their capacity to extract isoimperatorin, a bioactive furanocoumarin, from the roots of Ostericum koreanum. Herein, 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim][BF₄]) was selected as a promising IL for separating isoimperatorin. A central composite design was applied to optimize the extraction conditions. Under the optimal conditions, the yield of isoimperatorin reached 97.17 ± 1.84%. Additionally, the recovery of isoimperatorin from the [Bmim][BF₄] solution was successfully achieved (87.73 ± 2.37%) by crystallization using water as an antisolvent. The purity of the isoimperatorin was greatly enhanced, from 0.26 ± 0.28% in the raw material to 26.94 ± 1.26% in the product, in a one-step crystallization process. Namely, an enhancement of approximately 103-folds was reached. The developed approach overcomes the shortcomings of conventional separation methods applied for gaining isoimperatorin by significantly reducing the laboriousness of the process and the consumption of volatile organic solvents. Moreover, the simplicity and effectiveness of the method are assumed to be valuable for producing isoimperatorin-enriched products and for promoting its purification. This work also confirms the efficiency of ILs as a promising material for the separation of phytochemicals.     

东北刺人参的微量元素测定分析

用原子吸收光谱法测定了刺人参和人参的８种微量元素．结果显示，刺人参茎的８种微量元素的总量高于刺人参根的总量，茎的总量为２８１．４２×１０－６，根的总量为２３０．７５×１０－６；人参的８种元素总量为２１８．０７×１０－６；Ｆｅ、Ｚｎ和Ｍｎ３元素加起来的含量占总量的８０％以上。可见这３元素是这两味药材的主要微量元素成分。然而刺人参的Ｍｎ含量特别高，人参的Ｚｎ含量特别高，这正是刺人参不同于人参的地方，说明刺人参更易富集元素Ｍｎ．

A new strategy for the discovery of epimedium metabolites using high-performance liquid chromatography with high resolution mass spectrometry

In this paper, a new strategy of drug metabolite discovery and identification was established using high-performance liquid chromatography with high resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC–HRMS) and a mass spectral trees similarity filter (MTSF) technique. The MTSF technique was developed as a means to rapidly discover comprehensive metabolites from multiple active components in a complicated biological matrix. Using full-scan mass spectra as the stem and data-dependent subsequent stage mass spectra to form branches, the HRMS and multiple-stage mass spectrometric data from detected compounds were converted to mass spectral trees data. Potential metabolites were discovered based on the similarity between their mass spectral trees and that known compounds or metabolites in a mass spectra trees library. The threshold value for match similarity scores was set at above 200, allowing approximately 80% of interference to be filtered out. A total of 115 metabolites of five flavonoid monomers (epimedin A, epimedin B, epimedin C, icariin, and baohuoside I) and herbal extract of epimedium were discovered and identified in rats via this new strategy. As a result, a metabolic profile for epimedium was obtained and a metabolic pathway was proposed. In addition, comparing to the widely used neutral loss filter (NLF), product ion filter (PIF), and mass defect filter (MDF) techniques, the MTSF technique was shown superior efficiency and selectivity for discovering and identifying metabolites in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).
