  • The volatile aroma of fresh leaves is one of main factor in taste of all the edible green plants. The volatile aroma in almost edible green leaves are suggested as essential oil compounds. Ligularia fischeri, Synurus deltoides, Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis and Aster scaber are one of the favourable edible green plants in Korea. In this study, volatile aroma compounds from Ligularia fischeri and Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis species were analyzed by the SPME/GC/MSD method. Ligularia fischeri had 78 volatile aroma compounds such as D-limonene(20.28%), ${\alpha}$-pinene(dextro, 14.15%), L-${\beta}$-pinene(12.85%), 3-carene, ${\beta}$-cubebene(10.39%), etc. Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis had 83 volatile aroma compounds such as D-limonene(36.97%), ${\beta}$-cubebene(13.95%), L-${\beta}$-pinene(13.38%), ${\alpha}$-pinene(dextro, 4.76%), caryophylle-ne(3.33%) etc. Conclusively, the commom volatile aroma compounds in Ligularia fischeri and Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis leaves were D-limonene, ${\alpha}$-pinene, L-${\beta}$-pinene, ${\beta}$-cubebene, Caryophyllene, ${\alpha}$-farnesene, terpinolen. However, the composition and amount of volatile aroma compounds were very different between the two species.

  • This study investigated the volatile flavor composition of essential oils from Ligularia fischeri and Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis. The essential oils obtained from the plants were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and GC-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). 99.63% volatile flavor compounds were identified in the essential oil from the L. fischeri. The major compounds were (E)-3-hexenol (30.73%), longiverbenone (13.23%), viridiflorol (12.39%), ${\gamma}$-muurolene (7.32%), limonene (6.12%), and caryophyllene (${\beta}-4.24%$). 99.76% volatile flavor compounds were identified in the essential oil from the L. fischeri var. spiciformis. The major compounds were ledol (42.81%), (E)-15-heptadecenoic acid (33.91%), ${\beta}$-bisabolol (3.23%), viridiflorol (3.08%), and cis-${\alpha}$-farnesene (2.60%). Although the two plants are very similar, the chemical composition of the essential oils was significantly different in quality and quantity. In the case of L. fischeri., it has high contents of monoterpene and sesquiterpene. (E)-3-hexenol, longiverbenone, ${\alpha}$-phellandrene, and ${\alpha}$-myrcene were regarded as the characteristic odorants of L. fischeri, but they were not identified in L. fischeri var. spiciformis. Ledo, (E)-15-heptadecenoic acid, and ${\beta}$-bisabolol were regarded as the characteristic odorants of L. fischeri var. spiciformis, but they were not identified in L. fischeri. The ratio of limonene, ${\gamma}$-muurolene and viridiflorol can be used as an indicator to distinguish between these two plants.

  • The plant Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis (Compositae) is a candidate for available functional foods. It has been used to treat diabetes mellitus and rheumatoid arthritis. We have reported the isolation of a new eremophilanolide named 6-oxoeremophilenolide and cytotoxic intermedeol together with the isolation of hydrophilic constituents, chlorogenic acid, 3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinic acie (3), and 5-O-[1-butyl]-3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid. Compound 3 was again isolated by combination of silica gel- and ODS column chromatography for the anti-nociceptive action. Compound 3 and 4 were assayed in hot plate- and writhing tests in the rat. Although the three derivatives of caffeic acid exhibited significant anti-nociceptive effects at 10 mg/kg dose (i.p.),(activity potency: 4>3). These results suggest that compound 3 is responsible for at least rheumatoid arthritis, and caffeic acid moiety is the active moiety of dicaffeoylquinic acid.

  • The photosynthetic characteristics of three Ligularia species, L. fischeri, L. fischeri var. spiciformis and L. stenocephala under-tree cultivated in Dunnae-myeon, Hoengsung-gun were measured and compared. Total mean photosynthetic rate increased with increasing the light intensity up to 2,000 PPFD. Mean photosynthetic rate of L. fischeri increased to maximum value of $21.1{\mu}mol\;CO_{2}m^{-2}s^{-1}$ with increasing the light intensity up to 1,600 PPFD, but it was decreased at 2,000 PPFD. The highest photosynthetic rate was shown in L. fischeri var. spiciformis, followed by L. fischeri, and L. stenocephala. was the highest $27.39{\mu}mol\;CO_{2}m^{-2}s^{-1}$ among three species, followed by that of The differences in photosynthetic rates were significantly different among the species each measuring date. L. fischeri var. spiciformis was more adaptive species at the low elevated under-tree cultivated sites, such as, Sanchemaeul Dunnae-myeon Hoeyngseung-gun than L. fischeri and L. stenocephala.

  • In the present study, effects of essential oils isolated from various plants have been evaluated on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced release of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E$_2$(PGE$_2$) and tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-$\alpha$) by the macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. Among the tested essential oils, essential oil of Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis (LF-oil) significantly inhibited the LPS-induced generation of NO, PGE$_2$ and TNF-$\alpha$ in Raw 264.7 cells. Consistent with these observations, the expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 enzyme was inhibited by LF-oil in a concentration-dependent manner. Thus, this study suggests that inhibition of release of iNOS, COX-2 expression, and TNF-$\alpha$ by the essential oil of Ligularia fischer may be one of the mechanisms responsible for the anti-inflammatory effects of this medicinal plant.

  • The diethylet er fraction from the leaves extract of Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis (Compositae) was subjected to silica gel column chromatography and yielded three new terpenoids named spiciformisin a (1), spiciformisin b (3), and monocyclosqualene (2). Acyclic diterpenes, spiciformisin a and -b, were established as 3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-1,3(20)-hexadecadiene and 3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-1,3,6,10,14-hexadecapentaene (IUPAC), respectively. A monocyclic triterpene, monocyclosqualene, were determined as [3,8,12,16,16-pentamethyl-(3,7,11,15-hexadecatetraenyl)]-3,3,5-trimethyl-1-cyclohexene. The structures were determined on the basis of NMR and MS analysis. Spiciformicin b showed potent cytotoxicity ($IC_{50},{\;}<9.7{;\}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$ against HL-60) in contrast to no cytotoxicity ($IC_{50},{\;}>200{\;}}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml against HL-60 cells) of spiciformicin a with a cis-conjugated dienyl diexomethylene.

  • To find the action mechanism of the MeOH extract (LFS) of Ligularia fischeri var. spiciformis herbs (Compositae) and its active component, 3,4-dicaffeoylquinic acid (DCQA) on antihepatotoxicity, the effect was investigated on hepatic lipid perxodation and drug-metabolizing enzyme activities in acetaminophen-treated rat. Pretreatment with 250 mg/kg LFS (p.o.) and 10 mg/kg DCQA (p.o.) significantly decreased hepatic lipid peroxidation caused by acetaminophen injection. Further, LFS and DCQA inhibited hepatic microsomal enzyme activation such as hepatic P-450 cytochrome $b_5$, aniline hydroxylase and aminopyrine N-demethylase, suggesting that the two substances might effectively prevent the metabolic activation or scavenge electrophilic intermediates capable of causing hepatotoxicity. Both LFS and DCQA increased hepatic glutathione content and glutathione reductase activity, indicating that both resultantly prevented hepatotoxicity via antioxidative mechanism. Therefore, it was found that LFS had antihepatotoxicity based on the antioxidative action of DCQA.

  • This study was carried out to establish a proper cultivation condition and diagnose the drought-tolerance of three wild edible greens belonging to genus of Ligularia by using pressure-volume curves methods. The result of the original bulk osmotic pressure at maximum turgor ${\Psi}_{\circ}{^{sat}}$ was -0.8 MPa in Ligularia fischeri and L. stenocephala, which was somewhat lower than the value, -0.7 MPa, in L. fischeri var. spiciformis. In addition, the values of the osmotic pressure at incipient plasmolysis ${\Psi}_{\circ}{^{tlp}}$ in L. fischeri and L. stenocephala, both of which were -0.9 MPa, These were slightly lower than that of -0.8 MPa in L. fischeri var. spiciformis. On the other hand, it appeared that the values of maximum bulk modulus of elasticity $E_{max}$ of L. fischeri and L. stenocephala were approximately two times higher than that of L. fischeri var. spiciformis. However, There was a distinct difference between the values of the relative water contents in these three species. Therefore, Ligularia spp, occurring incipient plasmolysis in the high water contents, have a relatively low property of drought-tolerance, suggesting that growth of those Ligularia spp. are appropriate for relative moisture forest.
