Polyphenolic compounds including flavonoids are wide spread in the plant kingdom, and interested recently because epidemiological studies have suggested correlations between the consumption of polyphenol-rich plant foods and the prevention of chronic diseases. Soy is a main source of isoflavonoids which are high dietary intake for the oriental population. In this study, anti-inflammatory action of sophoricoside, an isoflavone glycoside isolated from immature fruits of Sophora japonica (Leguminosae family), has been demonstrated. (omitted)

For comparing with flavones/flavonols, isoflavonoids isolated from Pueraria radix and chemically synthesized from biochanin A were evaluated for the antiinflammatory activity using mouse ear edema test, Isoflavonoids such as daildzein and puerarin hsowed the significant antiinflammatory activity at a dose of 2 mg/mouse, although their activity was generally less than that of flavones/flavonols. 7-O-Substitution of biochanin A was not facorable for the antiinflammatory activity.

A glycosyltransferase, YjiC, from Bacillus licheniformis has been used for the modification of the commercially available isoflavonoids genistein, daidzein, biochanin A and formononetin. The in vitro glycosylation reaction, using UDP-${\alpha}$-D-glucose as a donor for the glucose moiety and aforementioned four acceptor molecules, showed the prominent glycosylation at 4' and 7 hydroxyl groups, but not at the $5^{th}$ hydroxyl group of the A-ring, resulting in the production of genistein 4'-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside, genistein 7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside (genistin), genistein 4',7-O-${\beta}$-D-diglucoside, biochanin A-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside (sissotrin), daidzein 4'-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside, daidzein 7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside (daidzin), daidzein 4', 7-O-${\beta}$-D-diglucoside, and formononetin 7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside (ononin). The structures of all the products were elucidated using high performance liquid chromatography-photo diode array and high resolution quadrupole time-of-flight electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR QTOF-ESI/MS) analysis, and were compared with commercially available standard compounds. Significantly higher bioconversion rates of all four isoflavonoids was observed in both in vitro as well as in vivo bioconversion reactions. The in vivo fermentation of the isoflavonoids by applying engineered E. coli $BL21(DE3)/{\Delta}pgi{\Delta}zwf{\Delta}ushA$ overexpressing phosphoglucomutase (pgm) and glucose 1-phosphate uridyltransferase (galU), along with YjiC, found more than 60% average conversion of $200{\mu}M$ of supplemented isoflavonoids, without any additional UDP-${\alpha}$-D-glucose added in fermentation medium, which could be very beneficial to large scale industrial production of isoflavonoid glucosides.

전분의 노화에 대한 새로운 억제물질의 탐색연구 일환으로 칡성분의 첨가 효과를 알아보기 위하며 칡 분말 및 이들의 한외여과 성분 분획의 첨가가 동진벼 쌀가루(8%, w/v) 호화액의 유동 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 아울러 냉장 보관중의 유동 특성에 대한 경시변화를 측정하였으며, 이들 유동특성을 변화시키는 주 요인 성분을 탐색하였다. 칡 분말의 첨가로 쌀가루 호화액 유동 특성의 큰 변화를 동반하였으며, 특히 한외여과 투과분획의 저분자 물질종에서 쌀가루 호화액 및 이의 저장중의 유동 특성 변화가 가장 현저하였다. 한외여과 투과액 분획의 첨가는 쌀가루 수용액의 의가소성, 항복응력 및 점조지수값을 크게 감소시켰으며 비교적 저장중의 안정성을 나타내어 노화억제의 효과가 시사되었다. 이들 한외여과 투석액 분획의 저분자 물질은 칡뿌리의 isoflavonoid로 알려진 puerarin, deidzein 및 deidzin인 것으로 확인되었다.

Thirty kinds of medicinal plants were screened to examine inhibitory activities on rat brain monoamine oxidase A, using serotonin as a substrate. As active principles, various kinds of stilbenes were isolated from Veratri Rhizoma, Reynoutriae Radix and Rhei undulati Rhizoma, and several kinds of flavonoids from Sophorae Flos, Chrisanthemi Flos and Glycine max. Among the compounds isolated, resveratrol(I) strongly inhibited MAO-A competitively, and its $IC_{50}$ and Ki values were 2 ${\mu}M$ and 2.5 ${\mu}M$, respectively. Inhibitory potencies towards MAO-A of some stilbenes and flavonoids were also compared.

From the 70% EtOH extract of the roots of Astragalus membranaceus (Leguminosae), eleven flavonoid derivatives and a lignan, were isolated and identified as liquiritigenin (1), daidzein (2), formononetin (3), sophorophenolone (4), calycosin (5), methylnissolin (6), isomucronulatol (7), isomucronulatol 7-O-glucoside (8), methylnissolin 3-O-glucoside (9), calycosin 7-O-glucoside (10), (+)-syringaresinol O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside (11), and isomucronulatol 7,2'-di-O-glucoside (12), by spectroscopic methods. This is the second report of the isoflavonoid derivatives sophorophenolone (4) and isomucronulatol 7,2'-di-O-glucoside (12) from a natural source, as well as the first report of compounds liquiritigenin (1), daidzein (2) and (+)-syringaresinol O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside (11) from the species A. membranaceus.

The suppressive activity of isoflavonoids against lymphocyte proliferation in vitro was examined. Isoflabvonoid derivatives tested were isflavones isolated from Pueraia radix and synthesized 7-O-substituted biochanin A derivatives. The certain isoflavones such as biochanin A and 2-carbethoxybiochainin A were found to possess the suppressive activity against concanavaline A (Con A)-induced lymphocyte proliferation from mouse spleen. Against mixed lymphocyte culture reaction, biochanin A, 2-carbethoxybiochainin A, daidzein, formononetin, genistein and 7-O-isopropylbiochaninl A showed the suppressive activity at $10^{-5}$ M. However, all isoflavones tested did not show the suppressive activity against lymphocyte proliferation induced by B-cell mitogen, lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In general, isoflavones were revealed to be less active than flavones/flavonols.

Two isoflavonoids were isolated from the flowers of Pueraria lobata (Flos puerariae) guided initially fractionation based on brine shrimp lethality assay. The structures were identified as 4',5,7-trihydroxy-6-methoxyisoflavone (tectorigenin) and 4',7-dihydroxy-6-methoxyisoflavone (glycitein), respectively, on the basis of their spectroscopic and physicochemical evidences.
