Aliphatic esters of protocatechuic acid (PA, 1), vanillic acid (VA, 9) and gallic acid (GA, 18) were prepared and their anti-thrombotic effects were evaluated in the mouse model of thrombosis. The aliphatic groups included methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, n-butyl, i-butyl, n-amyl and cyclohexyl. n-Amyl ester of PA (7), i-propyl and cyclohexyl esters of VA (13 and 17 respectively) and ethyl ester of GA (20) treatment significantly lowered the death rate and increased the recovery from paralysis due to the thrombotic challenge. From the limited analogs available, it was tentatively concluded that the structural conformation, where carboxy oxygen (=O or -O) of the carboxyl group (COOH) at $C_1$ and the oxygen function at $C_3(either\; OH\; or\; OCH_3)$ are closely situated, is favorable for the esters of PA, VA and GA to be more antithrombotic.

Fixed-bed adsorption was adapted to separate phenolic acids from diluted phenolic solution. Break-through curve was obtained by nonlinear curve fitting method, and breakpoint, saturation time, and mass transfer coeffi-cient were calculated . Break point and saturation time were reached slower with $\rho$-coumaric acid than ferulic acid .The p-coumaric acid, having small molecular weight, is suposedly traveled longer pathway in characoal than ferulic acid. Fixed-bed adsorption iwht gallic acid having more hydroxyl functional group than other phenolic acids showed break point arrival and the largest saturation time. This fact means that there was bigger electrostatic affinity between gallic acid and charcoal than between other phenolic acids and charcoal.

Objectives : Decrease in muscle mass and loss of muscle function due to aging are associated with various diseases. As interest in healthy aging increases, efforts to prevent and treat muscle hypoxia as an illness are increasing. Considering the physical limitations, a pharmacologic approach to the treatment of myopenia is needed. Methods : Terminalia chebula Rets has a wide range of pharmacological effects and is used as a medicinal product in traditional medicine. However, the drug effect on the treatment of muscle disorders has not been revealed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of water extract of Terminalia chebula (WETC) as a therapeutic agent to relieve symptoms of muscle hypoxia. Results : WETC showed strong radical scavenging ability. In addition, WETC increased cell activity of myoblast, and we observed that WETC induces myoblast differentiation by immunoblot analysis using differentiation protein markers as well as cell morphology of myoblast. Based on these results, we examined the effect of chebulic acid, chebulagic acid, gallic acid, geraniin, and punicalagin on cell activity and differentiation of myoblasts. Gallic acid significantly increased cell activity of myoblast, and it was found to be an effective substance which not only induces myoblast differentiation but also promotes proliferation. Conclusions : We suggest that the WETC with antioxidant effect and its indicator gallic acid on cell activity, proliferation and differentiation of myoblast can be studied and developed as a food and medicine for prevention and treatment of various muscle diseases.

본 연구는 항주름 소재를 개발하기 위해서 목단피로부터 gallic acid (GA)를 분리하여 항산화능을 측정하였고, HaCaT 세포에서 세포독성을 측정하였다. 또한 HaCaT 세포에서 tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-${\alpha}$)에 의해 유도되는 matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) mRNA 발현, protein 발현, 분비에 대한 GA의 영향을 관찰하였다. 결과로써 GA는 30 ${\mu}g/mL$의 $IC_{50}$과 함께 항산화능을 나타내었고, 그것의 항산화능은 합성항산화제인 butylated hydroxyanisol (BHA)보다 높았다. GA는 HaCaT 세포에서 고농도인 200 ${\mu}g/mL$ 처리시 약한 세포독성을 나타내었다. 또한 HaCaT세포에서 TNF-${\alpha}$ (10 ng/mL)의 처리에 의해 증가된 MMP-1의 mRNA 발현, protein 발현, 분비는 GA의 처리에 의해 농도 의존적으로 유의적인 감소를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 그러므로 GA는 항산화 효과와 TNF-${\alpha}$로부터 유도되는 MMP-1의 발현을 저해함으로써 피부 주름을 개선할 수 있는 주름개선제로서의 활용가능성을 확인하였다.

4년생 의성작약을 재료로 하여 작약의 주 이용부위인 약근 외에 뇌두, 줄기, 잎과 같은 작약 식물체 각 부위로 시료를 구분하고, 또한 작약근의 경우 관행적 법제시 박피를 통해 제거되는 코르크층과 코르크층의 유 무에 따라 유피근 및 거피근으로 구분하여 각 시료에 함유된 작약 주요 생리활성 성분의 함량 분포를 검토한 결과 작약 식물체 부위별 paeoniflorin, albiflorin 및 phenolic compounds의 각 함량은 뇌두가 뿌리보다 높은 양상을 나타내었다. 또한 기능성 물질로 평가되는 gallic acld 및 benzoic acid는 작약의 잎과 줄기에도 상당히 많은 양이 존재하였고, 특히 잎에는 paeoniflorln도 약 2.3%가 존재하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 현재까지 번식용으로만 이용되어온 작약의 뇌두도 약재로서의 이용 가능성을 체계적으로 검토할 필요가 있을 것이며, 작약의 잎 및 줄기도 gallic acid 및 그 유도체들의 source가 될 수 있으므로 이들 부위의 이용성도 체계적으로 검토되어야 할 것이다. 한편 작약근에 함유된 유용 생리활성 성분들은 목부와 껍질부위의 코르크층에 함께 존재하였다 특히 albiflorin, gallic acid, benzoic acid 및 (-)-epicatechin 성분은 코르크층에 많이 존재하였고, 목부에 더 많은 양이 존재하는 성분은 paeoniflorin, (+)-taxifolin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ 및 (+)-catechin이었다. 결국 작약근 이용시 코르크층을 벗기면 albiflorin을 포함한 유용성분의 손실이 발생되고, phenol 성 물질의 분비로 외면의 갈변이 유도되므로 상품의 질을 떨어뜨리는 원인이 된다. 그러므로 작약근의 이용 시 거피를 하지 않는 것이 유용성분의 활용 면에서도 유리하고, 수치작업에 대한 노력이 감소되므로 경제적 측면에서도 유리한 것으로 평가된다.

The inhibitory effects of the leaves of Eucalyptus darylmpleana (Myrtaceae) on the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical was examined. The scavenging effect of the ethyl acetate fraction of Eucalyptus darylmpleana leaves on DPPH radical was stronger than the other fractions, and further purified by silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. 3,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid, gallic acid, quercetin, quercetin $3-O-{\alpha}-_L-rhamnoside$, quercetin $3-O-{\beta}-_D-glucoside$ and quercetin 3-O-rutinoside were isolated and elucidated by spectroscopic data. Among these components, gallic acid and quercetin $3-O-{\alpha}-_L-rhamnoside$ exhibited potent scavenging activities on DPPH radical with $IC_{50}$ values of 6.02 and $5.54\;{\mu}M$, respectively.

Kemenyan resin from Styrax sumatrana is a unique non-timber forest product (NTFP) native from Sumatera Island, Indonesia. It possesses a wide range of applications in the pharmaceutical, perfume, and cosmetics industries. In this paper, six kemenyan resin samples were investigated to evaluate their free radical scavenging activity using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) reagent. The kemenyan resin samples, which originated from North Tapanuli, Pakpak Bharat, and Humbang Hasundutan, showed high antioxidant activity with $IC_{50}$ < 16 mg/L. The antioxidant activity of common kemenyan resin constituents, i.e., cinnamic acid, ethyl cinnamate, gallic acid, and vanillin was also investigated as positive control, although they exhibited lower antioxidant activity ($IC_{50}$ < 1000 mg/L), except for gallic acid ($IC_{50}$ = 5,23 mg/L). The total phenolic and flavonoid contents (TPC and TFC) for all samples were 44-66 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g sample and 143-160 mg quarcetin equivalents (QE)/g sample. The results revealed that kemenyan resin has high potency as an antioxidant and could be used as a natural antioxidant resource.
