5,4'-dihydroxystilbene-3-O-D-glucopyranoside (polydatin)는 호장(Polygonum cuspidatum)에 존재하는 stilbenes류의 하나로 지금까지 피부에서의 효능이 잘 알려지지 않았다. 우리는 호장으로부터 Polydatin을 분리하여 얻었으며, 피부유래의 멜라노사이트와 fibroblast를 이용하여 효능을 검증하였다. 실험결과 멜라노사이트에서 polydatin은 타이로시네이즈 활성과 멜라닌 생성을 억제하였고, 멜라닌 생합성 과정에 관여하는 타이로시네이즈와 전사인자인 microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF)의 발현을 억제하는 것을 확인하였다. 미백효과가 확인된 polydatin에 대하여 human fibroblast를 대상으로 type I procollagen 생합성에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과 polydatin은 농도 의존적 으로 콜라젠 합성을 촉진함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 polydatin의 피부에서의 효능을 검증하기 위해 인체효력시험을 통해 주름개선과 미백개선 효능을 검증하였으며 이를 통해 주름과 미백기능에 있어 유의한 효과를 확인하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 polydatin은 안전한 피부 미백 개선제 및 주름개선제로 사용될 수 있는 후보물질임을 제안하며, 상업적으로 활용하기 위해 원료화를 성공하였다.

Anti-Helicobacter pylori activity guided fractionation led to the isolation of five anthraquinones, two stilbenes and one naphthoquinone from the EtOAc fraction of Polygonum cuspidatum, using silica gel column chromatography, Sephadex-LH20, MPLC and recrystallization. The chemical structures were identified to be physcion (1), emodin (2), anthraglycoside B (3), trans-resveratrol (4), anthraglycoside A (5), polydatin (6), 2-methoxy-6-acetyl-7-methyljuglone (7) and citreorosein (8) by UV, $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR and mass spectrometry. Anti-Helicobacter pylori activity including MIC values of each compound was evaluated. All of the isolates exhibited anti-H. pylori activity of which MIC values were lower than that of a positive control, quercetin. Compounds 2 and 7 showed potent growth inhibitory activity. Especially, a naphthoquinone, compound 7 displayed most potent antibacterial activity with $MIC_{50}$ value of $0.30{\mu}M$ and $MIC_{90}$ value of $0.39{\mu}M$. Although anti-H. pylori activity of this plant was previously reported, this is the first report on that of compounds isolated from this species. From these findings, P. cuspidatum roots or its isolates may be useful for H. pylori infection and further study is needed to elucidate mechanism of action.

Objectives : The purpose of the present study was to development of neuroprotective antioxidant agents. For the purpose, we investigated the neuroprotective effect of anti oxidant herb, the root of Polygonum cuspidatum on transient focal cerebral ischemia in rats. Methods : The roots of Polygonum cuspidatum were extracted by 85% MeOH (PCE). Radical scavenging effects were investigated using DPPH assay and TBARs (Thiobarbituric acid reaction substance) assay in brian homogenates. Neuroprotective effect was investigated using transient focal cerebral ischemia rat model (2 h of ischemia, 22 h of reperfusion) by behavioral test and measurement of brain damage using 2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. Results : PCE showed potent and dose dependent radical scavenging effects in DPPH and TBARs assay. Oral administration of PCE reduced brain infarct volume by 29.7% and improved the sensory motor functional deficit by 29% compared with vehicle treated group. Conclusions : PCE showed radical scavenging effects and neuroprotective effect on stroke rat model. Therefore, Polygonum cuspidatum could be a candidate for the development of neuroprotective-antioxidant agents.

The Purpose of this studs was to investigate dyeing properties of silk and nylon fabrics by Polygonum cuspidatum extract. The properties were evaluated by it's extracting condition, dyeing condition, mordants variables, methods of mordanting and color fastness. Silk fabric showed the highest K/S value at $50-70^\circ{C}$, while Nylon fabric showed at $90^\circ{C}$. Surface color of dyed fabrics were various by the used mordants ; none-, and Al-mordanted fabrics were yellow, Cu-mordanted fabrics were redish yellow, Fe-mordanted fabrics were olive green. Fe-mordanted silk fabrics showed excellent laundering fastness and light fastness. Both silk and nylon fabric showed excellent laundering and dry cleaning fastness.

Natural products are widely used due to their various biological activities which include anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-obesity effects. In this study, we determined the antioxidative and anti-obesity effects of Polygonum cuspidatum 50% ethanol extract (PEE). The antioxidative effect of PEE was evaluated using its radical scavenging activity, total phenolic content, and reducing power. The anti-obesity effect of PEE was investigated using 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The antioxidative activity of PEE was progressively increased in various concentrations, mainly due to the presence of phenolic compounds. PEE also alleviated lipid accumulation on 3T3-L1 adipocytes and downregulated the mRNA and protein production of adipogenesis-related (SREBP-1c, PPARγ, C/EBPα) and lipogenesis-related (aP2, FAS, ACC) markers. Furthermore, we found that the inhibitory effect on lipid accumulation via PEE was caused by the alleviation of NF-κB, p38 MAPK, ERK1/2, and JNK at the protein level. Taken together, our results imply that PEE is a potential antioxidant that can prevent obesity-associated disorders.

[Purpose] Here, we aimed to determine the effect of Polygonum cuspidatum stem extract (PSE) on exorbital lacrimal gland-excised rat models and hyperosmotic stress-stimulated human conjunctival cells (HCCs). [Methods] Seven week old male Wistar rats were divided into six groups. Only the rats in the control group (NOR, n=5) did not undergo surgery. Three days after the surgery, the exorbital lacrimal gland-excised rats were randomly allocated to five groups: (1) vehicle-treated dry-eyed rats (DED, n=5); (2) PSE (10 mg/kg) treated DED rats (PSE-10, n=5); (3) PSE (100 mg/kg) treated DED rats (PSE-100, n=5); and (4) PSE (250 mg/kg) treated DED rats (PSE-250, n=5). In addition, the HCC line was co-treated with hyperosmolar media (528 mOsm) and PSE (1-100 μg/ml). [Results] PSE treatment restored the tear volume and goblet cell density by inhibiting severe corneal irregularities and damage. The treatment with PSE significantly attenuated the hyperosmolar stress-induced inflammation and cell death through the suppression of mRNA expression levels of Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and Interferon-γ (IFN-γ), and the expression of Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax) as well as the activation of caspase-3 in vitro. [Conclusion] The inhibitory effects of PSE treatment on dry eye disease indicate the potential of nutritional intervention by PES against inflammatory diseases without adverse effects.

Three species of genus Polygonum, namely P. cuspidatum, P. sachalinense and P. ellipticum are distributed in Korea. Polygonum ellipticum Migo is a perennial herb in Polygonaceous plants. The root of the plant (Polygoni Rhizoma, 'Ho-jang') have been used as laxative, diuretic and for the treatment suppurative dermatitis in the oriental medicine. As the part of the study for the comparison of the three species in their components, the authors attempted to isolate the anthraquinones and stilbene derivative from the rhizome of P. ellipticum. The methanolic extract of dried rhizome of this plant was fractionated into ether soluble and insoluble fraction and each fraction was applied to column chromatography to isolate above mentioned components. Anthraquinone derivatives were isolated first; comp. I, mp $204{\sim}205^{\circ}$ (physcion), comp. II, mp $254{\sim}255^{\circ}$ (emodin), comp. IV, mp $191{\sim}192^{\circ}$ $(emodin-8-O-{\beta}-D-glucoside)$ and comp. III, mp $280{\sim}282^{\circ}$ $({\beta}-sitosterol-glucoside)$. They were identified by chemical properties and UV, IR and NMR spectra and by the direct comparison with authentic samples. Stilbene derivative was isolated secondly; comp. V, mp $255{\sim}256^{\circ}$ which was reported to possess antibacterial and antifungal activities.

약용식물로부터 항균활성소재를 ethanol로 추출하고, 각 추출물의 시설원예산물에 대한 선도유지제로서의 기능과 효능을 입증하기 위하여, 변패된 시설원예산물에서 분리된 Bacillus cereus, Corynebacterium xerosis, Pseudomonas syringae 및 Enterobacter aerogenes를 공시균주로 사용하여 항균성을 실험한 결과, 호장, 정향, 치자, 황금, 적작약, 결명자 등에서 항균성을 확인하였고, 여기에서 가장 우수한 항균력을 가진 호장(Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. et Zucc) 또는 정향(Syzyrium aromaticum L. Merr. et Perry)추출물을 선택하여, paper disk mothod에 의한 농도별 항균력을 실험한 결과, 변패미생물에 대하여 농도에 비례하여 상당한 항균효과를 보였으며, 생육저해곡선에서는 500ppm이상에서 미생물의 생육이 완전히 억제되는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 호장 및 정향 ethanol추출물의 항균물질에 대한 열 및 pH안정성실험에서는 광범위한 온도(40-18$0^{\circ}C$)와 pH범위(4-10)에서 항균력을 보임으로써 열과 pH에 안정한 것으로 나타났다.
