Four compounds were isolated from Suaeda japonica by repeated column chromatography. Their structures were identified as 2'-hydroxy-6,7-methylenedioxy-isoflavone (1), loliolide (2), dehydrovomifoliol (3), and uridine (4) by spectral analysis and comparison with the published data. All compounds were isolated for the first time from this plant.

Three norisoprenoids (2, 4 and 5) were isolated from the aerial parts of Cirsium rhinoceros (Compositae) together with three flavonoids, pectolinarigenin (1), apigenin (3) and cirsimaritin (6). The structures of norisoprenoids were identified as dehydrovomifoliol (2), (+)-loliolide (4) and (-)-epiloliolide (5) on the basis of physico-chemical and spectral evidences. These norisoprenoids were first repoted from Cirsium species.

A new monoterpene, crocusatin M (1), was isolated from the flower buds of Buddleja officinalis, together with four known monoterpenes, (6R)-hydroxy-1,1,5-trimethylcyclohex-4-enone (2), (+)-dehydrovomifoliol (3), 7-epiloliolide (4), and crocusatin D (5). Their structures were determined by an extensive analysis of 1D, 2D NMR, HRESI-MS, and CD data as well as by comparison of their spectroscopic data with those of literatures. All isolates were evaluated for inhibitory activities on LPS-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 cells. Among them, compounds 2 and 3 showed moderate inhibitory effects with $IC_{50}$ values of 63.8 and 24.4 ${\mu}g/ml$, respectively.

In the course of screening tyrosinase inhibitory activity, EtOAc-soluble fraction of Nelumbinis Semen (Seeds of Nelumbo nucifera) showed significant inhibition. Further fractionation of the EtOAc-soluble fraction resulted in 12 compounds, which were identified as 4-(hydroxymethyl)phenol (1), tyrosol (2), 4-(hydroxymethyl)benzaldehyde (3), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4), 4-(2-methoxyvinyl)benzene-1,2-diol (5), 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid (6), (2R-trans)-2,3-dihydro-3,5,7,8-tetrahydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (7), (+)-catechin (8), elephantorrhizol (9), (+)-dehydrovomifoliol (10), (-)-boscialin (11) and uridine (12). Compounds 5 and 7 were first reported from this plant. Among the isolated compounds, compound 7 showed strong inhibition on tyrosinase activity with mixed mechanism of competitive and noncompetitive inhibition.

In the course of hepatoprotective screening for domestic plants. the aerial parts of B. vulgaris var. cycla exhibited hepatoprotective activity which was determined by using the primary cultures of rat hepatocytes injured by H2O2. Bioactivity-guided separation for this plant gave a new flavonoid (1) and the known compounds (2-4), which structures were elucidated by 1H-NMR, HMQC, 1H-1H COSY and HMBC as compound 1, apigenin 8-C-, 7-O-di-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside, compound 2, vitexin 2"-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside, compound 3, (+)-dehydrovomifoliol, and compound 4, 3-hydroxy-5$\alpha$, 6$\alpha$-epoxy-$\beta$-ionone.

(＋）-Dehydrovomifoliol (1）. 3-hydroxy-5$\alpha$,6$\alpha$-epoxy-$\beta$-ionone (2）, vitexin 7 -O-$\beta$-D-glucopyrano-side (3）, and vitexin 2'-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (4） were isolated as new constituents from the aerial parts of Beta vulgaris var. cicla. Compounds 3 and 4 demonstrated hepatoprotective activity with values of 65.8 and 56.1％, respectively, in primary cultured rat hepatocytes with $CCl_4$-induced cell toxicity, compared to controls. This was comparable to that of silibinin (69.8％） which was used as a positive control.trol.

Alzheimer's disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder with no curative treatment. The commercially available drugs, which target acetylcholinesterase, are not satisfactory. The aim of this study was to investigate the cholinesterase inhibitory activity of Solenostemma argel aerial part. Eight compounds were isolated and identified by NMR: kaempferol-3-O-glucopyranoside (1), kaempferol (2), kaempferol-3-glucopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}6$)rhamnopyranose (3) p-hydroxybenzoic acid (4), dehydrovomifoliol (5), 14,15-dihydroxypregn-4-ene-3,20-dione (6), 14,15-dihydroxy-pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione-$15{\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (7) and solargin I (8). Two of them (compounds 2 and 3) could inhibit over 50 % of butyrylcholinesterase activity at $100{\mu}M$. Compound (2) displayed the highest inhibitory effect against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) with a slight selectivity towards the latter. Molecular docking studies supported the in vitro results and revealed that (2) had made several hydrogen and ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking interactions which could explain the compound potency to inhibit AChE and BChE.

Twenty-five compounds were isolated from the methanolic extract of Geum japonicum (Rosaceae), and their structures were identified as eleven triterpenoids [ursolic acid 3-acetate (2), cecropiacic acid 3-methyl ester (3), pomolic acid 3-acetate (5), ursonic acid (6), ursolic acid (7), pomolic acid (8), corosolic acid (9), euscaphic acid (11), arjunic acid (16), tormentic acid (18), 23-hydroxytormentic acid (21)], two saponins [rosamultin (22) and kaji-ichigoside $F_1$ (23)], two megastigmanes [blumenol A (14) and (+)-dehydrovomifoliol (15)], three flavonoids [apigenin (13), isoquercitrin (17) and tiliroside (24)], two ellagic acid derivatives [3,3'-di-O-methylellagic acid (12) and ducheside B (25)] and five others [eugenol (1), emodin (4), vanillic acid (10), gallic aldehyde (19), salidroside (20)]. The chemical structures of these compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic methods and comparison with literature values. This is the first report of the eleven compounds, 2~6, 10, 15, 16, 20, 23, and 25 from the genus Geum, as well as the first report of apigenin (13) and 3,3'-di-O-methylellagic acid (12) from G. japonicum. The antioxidant properties of 22 isolates (1~11, 14, 16~25) were evaluated by the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) radical scavenging using 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) assay. Among them, isoquercitrin (17) showed significant scavenging activity, and gallic aldehyde (19) and ducheside B (25) showed weak scavenging activity.
