The calyx extract of Campsis grandiflora displayed inhibitory activity against protein kinase C from the bovine brain. Separation guided by protein kinase C enzyme assay and bleb forming assay led to isolation of a potent protein kinase C inhibitor that was identified as a known phenylpropanoid glycoside, verbascoside. It suppressed completely bleb-formation of K562 cell surface induced by phorbol 12,13-dibutylate at the concentration of 60 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml and IC$_{50}$ of the protein kinase C occured at 20 $\mu{M}$. This compound was tested for cytotoxic activity against ten human tumor cell lines in vitro. it exhibited moderate cytotoxic activity against skin tumor cell line M14 (IC$_{50}$ 2.2 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and very weak cytotoxicity against other cell lines (IC$_{50}$>10 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml)

Four flavonoids (1-4), a phenylethyl glycoside (5), and a phenylpropanoid glycoside (6) were isolated from the flowers of Buddleia officinalis (Loganiaceae). Their structures were determined by chemical and spectral analysis. Among the isolated compounds, luteolin (1) and acteoside (6) exhibited the most potent antioxidative activity on the NBT superoxide scavenging assay. In addition, compounds 1-6 revealed weak antifungal activity, and no hemolytic activity.

To investigate the relationship between structure and biological activity of phenylpropanoids, we measured effects of phenylpropanoids on anti-oxidant and whitening activity, In DPPH radical scavenging activity, caffeic acid analogues showed the significant anti-oxidant activity. Although phenylpropanoids did not inhibit purified-tyrosinase activity, they significantly inhibited tyrosinase activity and melanin production in MSH-stimulated B16 melanoma cells. However, phenylpropanoids did not affect tyrosinase expression in MSH-stimulated B16 melanoma cells, which suggest that inhibition of MSH-induced melanin production was due to tyrosinase inhibition mediated via other signal pathways but not expression of tyrosinase. Phenylpropanoids also significantly inhibited both hyaluronidase and elastase activity, suggesting that phenylpropanoids may be used as whitening, hydration and anti-wrinkling agents. Hydroxyl residue of aromatic ring in phenylpropanoids plays an important role in anti-oxidant and whitening activity.

Metabolic engineering of plant-specific phenylpropanoid biosynthesis has attracted an increasing amount of attention recently, owing to the vast potential of flavonoids as nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals. Recently, we have developed a recombinant Streptomyces venezuelae as a heterologous host for the production of flavonoids. In this study, we successfully improved flavonoid production by expressing two sets of genes predicted to be involved in malonate assimilation. The introduction of matB and matC encoding for malonyl-CoA synthetase and the putative dicarboxylate carrier protein, respectively, from Streptomyces coelicolor into the recombinant S. venezuelae strains expressing flavanone and flavone biosynthetic genes resulted in enhanced production of both flavonoids.

Phytochemical examination of the barks of Pinus densiflora Siebold et Zuccarini has led to the isolation of one phenylpropanoid, one lignan, one flavonoid, one flavan 3-ol and two procyanidins : 4-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-p-coumaric acid (1), 2,3-dihydro-2-(4-methoxy)-7-hydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl-5-(3-hydroxy propyl)-benzofuran 3-O-$\alpha$-D-glucopyranoside (2), taxifolin 3'-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (3), (+)-catechin (4), procyanidin B1 (5) and epicatechin-($4{\beta}$-8)-catechin-($4{\alpha}$-8)-catechin (6). Among them, Compound 4, 5 and 6 showed potent anti-oxidative activities and these anti-oxidative activities were significantly different compared with ascorbic acid as positive control.

Verbascoside has inhibition activity on carrageenan induced edema in rat paw, enhancement of bile juice secretion, and hepatoprotective activity. The hepatoprotective functions were improved on serumtransaminase activities (s-GPT and s-GOT), liver weight, and even sleeping time in mice treated with verbascoside. In addtion, the mice toxicated with carbon tetrachloride are signiflcantly recovered by the administration of verbascoside. This is the first report shown their biological activity of verbascoside.

We investigated the in vitro effect of Acteoside , phenylpropanoid glycosides. is a natural product isolated from …. on proliferation, differentiation and cell cycle regulation in human promyelocytic HL -60 leukemia cells. Acteoside significantly inhibited the proliferation of HL -60 cells, with IC50 of about 30$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$. It was also found to be a potent inducer of differentiation in human leukemia derived HL-60 cells through the examination of differentiation markers. (omitted)

Compound-A is a phenylpropanoid isolated from Arctium lappa fruit. In this experiments, effect of Compound-A on sheep red bood cells (sRBC) - induced delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) were studied in ICR male mice and determined the Rosette Forming Cells (RFC). Two weeks after sensitization of i.p. injection of sRBC (4$\times{10}^8$ cells), ICR male mice were challenged by i.p. injection of sRBC (2\times{10}^8$ cells). Five days the challenge of antigen, paw edema induced twenty-four hours after the last challenge by DTH. (omitted)

Effect of Compound-A, a phenylpropanoid isolated from Arctium lappa fruit, on the reversed cutaneous anaphylaxis (RCA) and complement-dependent hypersensitivity (CDH) were studied in SD male rats and ICR male mice, respectively. RCA and hemolysin (HY) titer test are related to reaction of Type II Hypersensitivity. Experiments were carried out to determine RCA as the edema of skin two hours after injection of 0.05 ml/site of anti-rat serum rabbit serum in SD rat. Drugs were orally administered one hour before antigen challenge. (omitted)
