This study was conducted to compare the antioxidant, anticytotoxic, and anti-inflammatory properties of Euphorbia maculata ethanol extract with those of E. supina ethanol extract. 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and superoxide scavenging activities of E. maculata at $50{\mu}g/mL$ were $38.3{\pm}3.7$ and $21.5{\pm}1.2%$, respectively, whereas those of E. supina at the same concentration were $109.4{\pm}0.9$ and $59.5{\pm}4.8%$, respectively. Oxygen radical absorbance capacities of E. maculata and E. supina at $10{\mu}g/mL$ were $14.70{\pm}0.63$ and $26.17{\pm}1.36nmol/mL$ Trolox, respectively. Cupric reducing antioxidant capacities of E. maculata and E. supina at $10{\mu}g/mL$ were $10.22{\pm}0.97$ and $62.99{\pm}5.28nmol/mL$ Trolox, respectively. Total phenolic contents of E. maculata and E. supina at $50{\mu}g/mL$ were $29.03{\pm}0.14$ and $87.89{\pm}0.20nmol/mL$ gallic acid, respectively. E. maculata and E. supina were reported to prevent supercoiled DNA breakage induced by peroxyl and hydroxyl radicals in a concentration-dependent manner, where protection against the supercoiled DNA breakage provided by E. supina was greater than that provided by E. maculata. E. maculata and E. supina at $100{\mu}g/mL$ inhibited tert-butyl hydroperoxide-induced cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells by $49.4{\pm}4.3$ and $87.3{\pm}4.5%$, respectively. E. maculata and E. supina at $500{\mu}g/mL$ inhibited lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 cells by $63.1{\pm}7.0$ and $85.2{\pm}1.6%$, respectively. The antioxidant capacities including DPPH radical scavenging, superoxide scavenging, oxygen radical absorbance, and cupric reducing antioxidant activity were found to be highly correlated with total phenolic content (0.896 < r < 0.983, p < 0.01) and anticytotoxic activities (0.915 < r < 0.960, p < 0.01). However, the superoxide scavenging activity was not significantly correlated (r = 0.604, p > 0.05) with the anti-inflammatory activity. Thus, these findings demonstrated that the radical scavenging, anticytotoxic, and anti-inflammatory capacities of E. supina were more potent than those of E. maculata. Further studies are needed to elucidate the properties of polyphenolic constituents in E. supina responsible for these effects and the underlying mechanisms.

Objectives : In this study, the antioxidant activities of the 80% ethanol and hot water extracts of Euphorbia supina Rafinesque were investigated. Methods : We measured total phenol contents, flavonoid contents, 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging assay, 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging assay. The production of reactive oxygen species was measured in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells using flow cytometry system. Results : The content of phenol in the hot water extract was $65.529{\pm}0.462mg/g$ and $126.932{\pm}1.894mg/g$ in the 80% ethanol extract, and that of flavonoid in the hot water extract was $16.063{\pm}0.471mg/g$ and $29.159{\pm}1.963mg/g$ in the ethanol extract. The 80% ethanol extract also showed higher DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities ($90.8{\pm}1.0%$ and $92.5{\pm}0.7%$) than the hot water extract ($81.5{\pm}0.5%$ and $91.5{\pm}0.2%$). The production of reactive oxygen species(ROS) was reduced dose-dependently by 80% ethanol and hot water extract at concentration of 1, 10 and $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ of RAW 264.7 cells. Conclusion : According to these results, the 80% ethanol extract of Euphorbia supina Rafinesque has a good anti-oxidative effects than the hot water extract. Thus, the 80% ethanol extract of Euphorbia supina Rafinesque may serve as useful natural antioxidants.

본 연구에서는 다양한 약효가 있다고 알려진 애기땅빈대(Euphorbia supina)의 추출물 및 분획물의 지방산 조성을 분석하고 인체 암세포 증식 억제효과에 대하여 살펴보았다. A+M과 MeOH 추출물의 지방산 조성 패턴은 유사했고 A+M과 MeOH 추출물은 각각 53.4% 및 42.1%의 18:3n-3를 함유하였다. 분획물들 중 85% aq. MeOH는 가장 높은 함량의 18:3n-3를 나타내었다. 애기땅빈대에 의한 암세포 증식 억제효과는 MeOH 추출물과 비교했을 때 A+M 추출물에 의한 억제효과가 높았으며 AGS 인체 위암세포에 대한 억제효과가 높았다. 분획물들 중에서는 n-Hexane과 85% aq. MeOH 분획물들에 의한 증식 억제효과가 높았다. 따라서 애기땅빈대의 항암 활성 성분은 n-Hexane과 85% aq. MeOH 분획물들에 함유되어 있는 것으로 여겨지며 향후 정제하여 규명할 필요가 있다고 사료된다.

Eight compounds were isolated from the EtOAc soluble fraction of Euphorbia supina MeOH extract as the radical scavengers for antioxidant activity. Their structures were identified as kaempferol (1), quercetin (2), juglanin (3), avicularin (4), astragalin (5), isoquercitrin (6), hyperin (7), and nicotiflorin (8) by spectroscopic analysis. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by the ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) assay, which measures scavenging activity against peroxy radicals induced by 2,2'-azobis (2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride, and the ORAC value is expressed as relative trolox equivalent. Compounds 4, 6, and 7 exhibited potent antioxidant activity, whereas the other compounds showed weaker activity than trolox.

Bioactivity-guided investigation on whole plant of Euphorbia supina, using LPS-induced Raw264.7 cells, led to the identificaiton of a tannin which was not reported from this plant along with four known constituents (quercetin, astragalin, juglanin and methyl gallate). The structure of the tannin was determined as corilagin by the interpretation of NMR (1D and 2D) and MS spectroscopic data. All the isolates were tested for the inhibitory activity against NO production in LPS-induced Raw264.7 cells. Among the tested isolates, corilagin was found to be the most active compound.

In our search for natural soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitors from plants, an extract of the dried whole plants of Euphorbia supina Rafin was found to significantly inhibit sEH activity in vitro. Phytochemical investigation of E. supina resulted in isolation of 17 compounds (1 - 17), including triterpenes (1 - 4), phenolic compounds (5 - 8), and flavonoid derivatives (9 - 17). The structures of the isolated compounds were established mainly by extensive analysis of the 1D and 2D NMR, and MS data. All of the isolated compounds were evaluated for their sEH inhibitory activity. Among the isolated phenolic compounds, 8 was identified as a significant inhibitor of sEH, with an IC₅₀ value of 15.4 ± 1.3 μM. Additionally, a kinetic analysis of isolated compounds (2, 5, 8 - 11, 13, and 17) indicated that the inhibitory effects of flavonoid derivatives 10 and 11 were of mixed-type, with inhibitory constants (K_i) ranging from 3.6 ± 0.8 to 21.8 ± 1.0 μM, whereas compounds 2, 5, 8, 9, 13, and 17 were non-competitive inhibitors with inhibition K_i values ranging from 3.3 ± 0.2 to 39.5 ± 0.0 μM.

Reactive oxygen species damage biomolecules such as lipids, proteins, sugars and DNA, which can not only lead to various disease but also oxidative damage resulting aging. In order to search for antioxidants from plants, the antioxidant effects of the MeOH extracts from 182 plants were evaluated. The results showed that thirteen plant extracts exhibited antioxidant activity (>80%) in DPPH radical assay, seven plant extracts demonstrated antioxidant activity (>40%) in the hydroxyl radical assay and eighteen plant extracts were active (>80%) in the lipid peroxidation assay. In particular, the extracts of Distylium racemosum (Hamamelidaceae), Astilbe koreana (Saxifragaceae), Astilbe chinensis and Euphorbia supina (Euphorbiaceae) were identified as potent principles of antioxidant activity in all the assay systems.

본 연구는 애기땅빈대(Euphorbia supina Rafin.) 열수(ESW) 및 에탄올 추출물(ESE)의 항염증 효과를 조사하기 위하여 RAW 264.7 세포에서 LPS에 의해 생성되는 염증매개물질에 대한 억제효과를 조사하였다. ESW와 ESE은 조사된 모든 농도에서 95% 이상의 생존율을 보여 세포독성이 없는 것으로 확인되었다. ESW의 경우, NO의 생성을 100, 250, 500, $1000\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 각각 21.6%, 31.9%, 44.3%, 54.8% 억제하였고, PGE2의 생성은 250, 500, $1000\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 각각 25.7%, 34%, 38.2% 억제하여 농도 의존적이고 유의적인 억제효과가 확인되었다. IL-6의 생성은 250, $1000\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 각각 66.1%, 54.3% 억제하였다. IL-10, TNF-${\alpha}$의 생성은 $500\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 유의적인 증가를 나타냈다. ESE의 경우, NO의 생성을 100, 250, 500, $1000\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 각각 38.3%, 66%, 74.7%, 77.5%, $PGE_2$의 생성은 100, 250, 500, $1000\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 각각 40%, 51.8%, 92.4%, 94.7% 농도 의존적이고 유의적으로 억제하였다. IL-6의 생성은 100, 250, 500, $1000\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 각각 43.9%, 48.9%, 69.7%, 89.4% 억제하였다. IL-10의 생성은 $500\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 44.1% 억제하였고, TNF-${\alpha}$의 생성은 $1000\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 92.4% 억제하였다. 결과를 종합해 볼때, 애기땅빈대는 ESW보다는 ESE의 경우가 LPS로 활성화된 RAW 264.7 대식세포에서의 염증매개물질 억제효과가 좋은 것으로 나타났으며, ESE는 저농도보다는 $500\;{\mu}g$/mL 이상의 고농도에서 NO, $PGE_2$, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-${\alpha}$와 같은 염증매개물질 억제효과가 좋은 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 애기땅빈대 ESE는 $500\;{\mu}g$/mL 농도 이상에서 염증매개물질 억제 보조제로서 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
