Athyrium acutipinnulum, called as Ulleungdo ladyfern (Seom-go-sa-ri), is a native plant of South Korea. A. acutipinnulum has been consumed as foods and also traditionally used for the treatment of epilepsy, gonorrhea and nerve disorder. The methanolic extract and EtOAc soluble fraction of A. acutipinnulum showed the antioxidant activity. Fractionation using various chromatographic techniques resulted in the isolation of 13 compounds. The structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods as seven phenolic compounds, methyl 2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate (1), protocatechualdehyde (2), caffeic acid (3), trans-p-coumaric acid (4), (-)-4-E-caffeoyl-L-threonic acid (5), 5-O-caffeoyl shikimic acid (6) and 5-O-caffeoyl quinic acid (7), three flavonoids, quercetin 3-O-β-glucoside (8), naringenin-7-O-β-glucoside (9) and sutchenoside A (10), two steroids, ponasterone A (11) and ecdysone (12) and a coumarin, esculetin (13). Among them, compounds 5 and 10 were first reported from Athyrium spp and compounds 2, 5, 6 and 7 showed the antioxidant activity.

Phytochemical works on the aerial parts of Aster oharai (Compositae) led to the isolation of a new sesquiterpene hydroperoxide, 7$\alpha$-hydroperoxy-3, 11-eudesmadiene (2) and seven known compounds, teucdiol B (1), $\alpha$-spinasterol (3), oleanolic acid (4), $\alpha$-spinasterol 3-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (5), methyl 3,5-di-Ο-caffeoyl quinate (6), 3,5-di-Ο-caffeoylquinic acid (7), 3,4-di-Ο-caffeoylquinic acid (8). The chemical structures of 1-8 were established by chemical and spectroscopic methods. Compound 2 showed cytotoxicity against cultured human tumor cell lines in vitro, SK-OV-3 (ovarian), SK-MEL-2 (skin melanoma), and HCT15 (colon) with $ED_{50}$ values ranging from 3.86-17.21 $\mu$g/mL.

The tyrosinase inhibition activity and mutagenicity as assessed by the Ames test on phenolic antioxidants (5-Caffeoyl quinic acid, 3,4-Dihydroxy cinnamic acid, Quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranose, Kaempferol 3-O-${\beta}$- D-glucopyranose) and the ethyl acetate fraction isolated from mulberry leaves were examined. The ethyl acetate fraction and chlorogenic acid exhibited weaker tyrosinase inhibitory activities than kojic acid. In addition, the ethyl acetate fraction from mulberry leaves, containing phenolic antioxidants, showed no mutagenicity by the Ames test.

Phytochemical investigation of the MeOH extract of the aerial parts of Bistorta manshuriensis resulted in the isolation of two cerebrosides, two lactams, six phenolic compounds and seven flavonoids. Their chemical structures were characterized by spectroscopic methods to be pinelloside (1), soyacerebroside I (2), pterolactam (3), 5-hydroxypyrrolidine-2-one (4), vanillic acid (5), caffeic acid methyl ester (6), protocatechuic acid (7), caffeic acid (8), 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid methyl ester (9), chlorogenic acid methyl ester (10), avicularin (11), afzelin (12), quercetin (13), isoorientin (14), quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside (15), quercitrin (16), and luteolin (17). The isolated compounds (1 - 4, 7, 12, 14) were isolated for the first time from this plant source and the compounds 1 - 4, 9 and 10 were first reported from the genus Bistorta. Compound 17 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity and compound 6 exhibited weak cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines in vitro using an SRB bioassay.

Tungtungmadic acid(3-caffeoyl, 4-dihydrocaffeoyl quinic acid: CDCQ) is a new chlorogenic acid derivative isolated from the Salicornia herbacea. The suppressive effects of CDCQ on the progress of acute carbon tetrachloride($CCl_4$)-induced hepatic fibrosis were investigated in mice. CDCQ significantly suppressed $CCl_4$-induced hepatic necrosis and inflammation, as determined by serum enzymatic activities of alanine and aspartate aminotransferase and serum TNF-$\alpha$ levels in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, increased hepatic lipid peroxidation and fibrosis after acute $CCl_4$ treatment were suppressed by the administration of CDCQ. CDCQ also significantly prevented the elevation of hepatic hydroxyproline and collagen content and ${\alpha}$-smooth muscle actin(${\alpha}$-SMA) expression in the liver of $CCl_4$-intoxicated mice. These results suggest that the suppressive effects of CDCQ against the acute $CCl_4$-induced hepatic fibrosis possibly related to its ability to block both hepatic inflammation and the activation of hepatic stellate cells.

A chemical examination of the phenolic compounds in the leaves of Sapium japonicum(Euphorbiacesae) has led to the isolation of eleven phenolic compounds, containing five hydrolysable tannins and six flavonoids. On the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidences, the structures of these compounds were confirmed to be gallic acid(1), 5-O-caffeoyl quinic acid(2), 1-O-galloyl-3,6-(R)-HHDP-${\beta}-_D$-glucose(corilagin)(3), 1-O-galloyl-2,4(R)-DHHDP-${\beta}-_D$-glucose(furosin)(4), 1-O-galloyl-2,4-(R)-DHHDP-3,6-(R)-HHDP-${\beta}-_D$-glucose(geraniin )(5), astragalin(6), trifolin(7), afzelin(8), quercetin(9), isoquercitrin(10) and rutin(11). Among them geraniin was the main component.

In the courses of in vitro screening for the antioxidant effect of the various extracts from medicinal plants, n-BuOH soluble extract of the seeds of Xanthium strumarium was found to exhibit distinctive antioxidant activity. Further purifications of this extract as guided by in vitro antioxidant assay afforded caffeic acid and 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid, which scavenged 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical in a dose-dependent manner of which IC50 values were 23.4 μg/ml (132.9 μM) and 29.8 μg/ml (57.9 μM), respectively.

Six caffeoylquinic acids of Cacalia firma (Komarov) Nakai (Compositae) leaves were identified using standard compounds by HPLC. Each content of those compounds in dried weight was determined as follows: 3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (1.44${\pm}$0.04 mg/g of dried weight), 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl-muce-quinic acid (2.47${\pm}$0.12 mg/g), 3,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (3.74${\pm}$0.24 mg/g), 5-caffeoylquinic acid (chlorogenic acid, 5.20${\pm}$0.09 mg/g), 3-caffeoylquinic acid (1.35${\pm}$0.01 mg/g) and 3-Op-coumaroylquinic acid (3.84${\pm}$0.25 mg/g). The total content of six caffeoylquinic acids in the plant material was calculated as 18.05${\pm}$0.69 mg/g while the percentage of the six compounds in the MeOH extract was calculated as 30.85${\pm}$1.18%. The $IC_{50}$ value of the MeOH extract scavenging peroxynitrite ($ONOO^-$) was shown as 3.22${\pm}$0.57 ${\mu}g$/ml.
