Geranylation of some synthetic and natural flavones have yielded cytotoxic products against L1210 coll; 5,2´-dihydroxy-6,7,8-trimethoxy-6´-geranyloxyflavone 4$(8.5{\mu}g/ml)$, 5,6-dihydroxy-7-gerenyloxyflavone 9$(2.3{\mu}g/ml)$. 2 has showed the same range of cytotoxicity as the starting material, 5,2´-dihydroxy-6,7,8-trimethoxy-6´-benzyloxyflavone$(17.0{\mu}g/ml)$. The cytotoxicity of 4 was lower than its starting substance, 5,2´,6´-trihydroxy-6,7,8-trimethoxyflavone $(4.5{\mu}g/ml)$. On geranylating 5,6,7-trihydroxyflavone(baicalein, $15.0{\mu}g/ml$) the cytotoxic activity has been strongly potentiated($2.3{\mu}g/ml$ of 9). The presence of at least a free hydroxy group in B-ring of Skullkapflavone II-type flavones. was essential for a high activity. A larger RD-group than methoxy in the B-ring has weakened the activity. The cytotoxicities of baicalein series could not be correlated to their structures.

5-Arylamino-6-chloro-4.7-dioxoindazoles (DZs) were newly synthesized for the evaluation of antifungal activities. The compounds DZs were prepared by regioselective nucleophilic substitution of 5.6-dichloro-4.7-dioxoindazoles with appropriate arylamines in high yield. DZs were tested for their growth inhibitory activities against Candida species and Aspergillus niger. The MIC values were determined by the two-fold dilution method. In general. DZs showed in vitro antifungal activities. Among the tested compounds, DZ1, 3, 6, 7 and 12 showed potent antifungal activities against Candida species and Aspergillus niger. DZ7 was the most effective in preventing the growth of Candida species.

We describe a method for producing polyclonal antibodies against peptide antigen cytochrome P450 1A2 and 3A4 using a tandem repeat of the epitope region and incorporation of proline residue between the repeated sequences. An ELISA assay revealed more efficient generation of polyclonal antibodies to tandem repeat peptide antigens than mono-epitope peptides. The incorporation of proline residues further stimulated antibody production.

Solvatochromic effect and hydrogen bonding interaction of NPNOH, NPNO- and NPNOR were investigated. Electronic transition energies of the dyes were plotted against empirical solvent polarity parameters, Taft's π* and Reichardt's ET(30). Good correlations were observed when the excitation energies were plotted against the energy calculated by multiple linear regression method which was developed by Taft. There is an intrinsic difference between betaine for ET(30) polarity scale and the azoderivative, which is derived from the specific hydrogen bond incurred with probe molecules and solvents. The hydrogen bonding plays a very important role for stabilization of an excited state molecule by solvents especially when a solute possesses a negative charge as with NPNO-.

Diazepamoxadiazoles 4,5,6,12,14 and 22 were prepared with the binary form system. Diazepamthiadiazoles 15,20 and Diazepamtriazoles 7,8,9,17,18,19 and 21 were also shapely synthesized. Some of these compounds were screened to test their antibacterial activity against E. coli and B. subtilis compounds 15 and 20 show potent activity against these bacteria.

식중독의 원인 세균 및 병원성 세균 7종(Bacillus cereus (11.2, 20), Clostridium perfringens (2.4, 4.7), Escherichia coli (9.1, 9.1), Listeria monocytogenes (11.1, 20), Salmonella typhi (4.7, 9.1), Staphylococcus aureus (2.4, 4.7), Vibrio parahaemolyticus (2.4, 5.3))에 대해 한약재 추출물의 항균 활성을 측정하였다. 추출물은 증류수를 이용한 고온추출법($121^{\circ}C$에서 30분간)으로 제조하였고, 9가지 한약재 추출물의 수율은 0.5-33.4% 범위였다. 종이 디스크 확산법을 이용하여 박테리아에 대한 항균 활성을 평가하였을 때 황련, 지유, 오배자 추출물에서만 항균활성이 나타났다. 황련과 지유 추출물은 Clostridium perfringens과 Listeria monocytogenes에만 항균활성을 나타낸 반면, 오배자는 시험한 모든 세균에 대해 강한 항균 작용을 보였다. 오배자 추출물의 건조시료가 나타내는 최소억제농도(MIC)와 최소살균농도(MBC)는 2.4~20 mg/ml 범위였다. 본 연구결과는 추후 정제와 항균물질에 대한 연구를 통하여 기존 항균제의 보완제 및 식품의 유통기한 증진 등 항균소재로서 응용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

This study was performed to determine the antimutagenic and cytotoxic effect of the Phellinus linteus methanol extract on Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100 and human cancer cell lines. In the Ames test, methanol extract of P. linteus alone did not exhibit any mutagenicity but showed substantial inhibitory effects against mutation induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG), 4-nitroquinoline-nitroquinoline-1-oxide(4NQO), 3-amino-1,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrdo[4,3-blindol(Trp-P-1) and benzo(α)pyrene(B(α)P). The methanol extracts of P. linteus(200㎍/plate) showed approximately 78.3%, 78.7% and 88.1% inhibitory effect on the mutagenesis induced by 4NQO, Trp-P-1 and B(α)P. The anticancer effects of P. linteus extract against human breast adenocarcinoma(MCF7), human lung carcinoma (A549), human fibrosarcoma (HT1080), human hepatocelular carcinoma (Hep3B) and human epitheloid carcinoma (HeLa) were investigated. The treatment of 1mg/mL P. linteus extracts had the highest cytotoxicity against MCF7 (92.0%), followed by Hep3B (84.9%), A549 (84.2%) and HT1080 (82.9%). In contrast 1mg/mL treatment of P. linteus extracts had only 10∼40% cytotoxicity on normal human liver cell (WRL68).

Theaflavins (TF) and thearubigins (TR) were separated from Korean microbially fermented tea leaves. Contents of TF (74.4 $\mu$M/g) and TR (37.2%) were higher than reported for black tea fermented by oxidase. Antioxidant activities of TF, TR and EGCG were analyzed and protective effects of COS-7 cells against copper and cadmium-induced toxicity were investigated. TF and TR exhibited good inhibition rates of about 85$\sim$90% for antioxidant and scavenging activities of free radicals and protected COS-7 cells against apoptosis or damage caused by stress, such as cadmium and copper-oxidative injury, free radicals etc. These results indicate that TF, TR and EGCG have antioxidant and scavenging activities against free radicals and protect COS-7 cells from Cu, Cd induced injury.

Three diterpenes (1, 8, and 9), three triterpenes (3, 4, and 7), one saponin (11), four sterols (2, 5, 6, and 12), and one cerebroside (10) were isolated from the EtOH extract of the aerial parts of Aralia cordata by repeated silica gel column chromatography. Their chemical structures were identified by comparing their physicochemical and spectral data with those published in literatures. All isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against L1210, K562, and LLC tumor cell lines using MTT assay. Of which, $3{\beta},5{\alpha}-dihydroxy-6{\beta}-methoxyergosta-7,22-diene$ (6) showed a potent cytotoxicity against all cell lines with $IC_{50}$ values of 11.7, 11.9, and $15.1\;{\mu}M$, respectively, while compounds 1, 5, and 11 showed a moderate or weak cytotoxicity. These isolates were also examined for their inhibitory activity against COX-1 and COX-2. Although most compounds, except for 2, 10, and 12, showed a strong inhibitory activity against COX-1, they exhibited a moderate or weak inhibitory activity against COX-2.

Previously, a methanol extract from seeds of Paeonia lactiflora was shown to have a potent inhibitory activities against tyrosinase and soybean lipoxygenase (SLO). Seven stilbenes, trans-resveratrol-4-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucoside, trans resveratrol, trans-$\varepsilon$-viniferin, cis-$\varepsilon$-viniferin, gnetin H, suffruticosol A and B were isolated from the seeds as active principles for inhibition of the enzymatic activity. Among them, the resveratrol trimer, gnetin H exhibited the most potent inhibitory activities against tyrosinase and SLO, respectively. Additionally, the resveratrol dimers, trans-$\varepsilon$-viniferin and cis-$\varepsilon$-viniferin exhibited significant inhibitory activity against the two oxidative enzymes. Meanwhile, three other stilbene derivatives, such as trans-resveratrol, suffruticosol A and suffruticosol B had also weak inhibition activity. The least inhibitory activity was observed in transresveratrol-4-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucoside. These results suggest that resveratrol dimers and trimer in the seeds of Paeonia lactiflora are potentially useful therapeutic agents against pathological disorders such as hyperpigmentation and inflammation.
