The root bark of Morus alba L. were extracted with 80% aqueous MeOH, and the concentrated extract was partitioned with EtOAc, n-BuOH, and $H_2O$ fractions. The repeated silica gel ($SiO_2$), octadecyl $SiO_2$ (ODS), and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatographies of the EtOAc fraction led to isolation of 12 phenolic compounds. The chemical structures of the compounds were determined as sanggenol Q (1), sanggenol A (2), sanggenol L (3), kuwanon T (4), cyclomorusin (5), sanggenon F (6), sanggenol O (7), sanggenon N (8), sanggenon G (9), mulberrofuran G (10), mulberrofuran C (11), and moracin E (12). All isolated compounds were evaluated for inhibit lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 macrophages.

From the root bark of Broussonetia kazinoki (Moraceae) two antioxidant components were identified. Their structures were determined as kazinol A (1) and kazinol E (2) (is oprenylated flavan and isoprenylated 1,3-diphenyl propan derivatives) by comparing NMR data with those of the reported compounds from relative plants. The antioxidant activity of 1 and 2 were monitored by the method of DPPH radical scavenging activity, whose $SC_{50}$ values were $41.4{\mu}M\;and\;33.4{\mu}M$, respectively. These compounds also exhibited inhibitory activity against tyrosinase, which is the sole key enzyme for the melanin biosynthesis and play a role in conversion of tyrosine to dopa, and dopa to dopaquinone. The antioxidant effect and the suppression of melanin biosynthesis are useful for anti-aging, increasing vitality in the incidence of major degenerative diseases, and cosmetic products in relation to hyperpigmentation.

The transitivity of Chemical constituents by Pleurotus ostreatus cultivated in different raw sawdusts, which are Juglans mandchurica, Cudrania tricuspidata and Lindera glauca, was investigated. The HPLC chromatography patterns on the chemical constituents of P. ostreatus showed the similar chromatography patterns in all different raw sawdusts and control sawdust. The unknown chemical constituents of P. ostreatus cultivated in the 10%, 20% mixed medium added 10 %, 20% different raw sawdusts, respectively, were increased. But the significance results in the mixed medium added 50% different raw sawdusts were not showed. The chromatography patterns of mycelia grown in media added the 80% MeOH extracts of three tree species showed the similar patterns in comparison with control mycelia. In the results, the secondary metabolites of functional media were not degrade and changed to other derivatives compounds by P. ostreatus.
