Increasing evidence implicates changes in $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ and oxidative stress as causative factors in amyloid beta ($A{\beta}$)-induced neuronal cell death. Cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G), a component of anthocyanin, has been reported to protect against glutamate-induced neuronal cell death by inhibiting $Ca^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ signaling. The present study aimed to determine whether C3G exerts a protective effect against $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-induced neuronal cell death in cultured rat hippocampal neurons from embryonic day 17 fetal Sprague-Dawley rats using MTT assay for cell survival, and caspase-3 assay and digital imaging methods for $Ca^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, MMP and ROS. Treatment with $A{\beta}_{25-35}$ ($20{\mu}M$) for 48 h induced neuronal cell death in cultured rat pure hippocampal neurons. Treatment with C3G for 48 h significantly increased cell survival. Pretreatment with C3G for 30 min significantly inhibited $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-induced $[Zn^{2+}]_i$ increases as well as $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ increases in the cultured rat hippocampal neurons. C3G also significantly inhibited $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-induced mitochondrial depolarization. C3G also blocked the $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-induced formation of ROS. In addition, C3G significantly inhibited the $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-induced activation of caspase-3. These results suggest that cyanidin-3-glucoside protects against amyloid ${\beta}$-induced neuronal cell death by reducing multiple apoptotic signals.

The Fe complex formation of cyanidin-3-glucoside in acetate buffer solution $(pH1.7{\sim}6.0)$ was investigated spectrophotometically. Two different complexes were formed from cyanidin-3-glucoside and $Fe^{3+}$, which had the absorption maximum at 543nm in the pH range $3.0{\sim}4.0$ and at 570nm in the pH range $5.0{\sim}6.0$ respectively. The molar ratio of the complex formed in the lower pH range was appeared to be 1 : 1, whereas that of the complex formed in the upper pH range was not able to be determined definitely. Among several organic acids examined, citric acid has shown the marked inhibitory effect on the Fe-anthocyanin complex formation.

This study was conducted to analyze the protective capacity of cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G), which is rich in mulberry and blackberry as an anthocyanin pigment. In this study, we found that treatment with C3G significantly reduced ROS production in hydrogen peroxide $(H_2O_2)-treated$ HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, treatment with C3G significantly increased the cell viability in a dose-dependent manner in $H_2O_2-treated$ HepG2 cells. Moreover, treatment with C3G dose-dependently decreased the release of LDH and activation of caspase-3 in HepG2 cells treated with $H_2O_2$. Furthermore, the DNA damage in $H_2O_2-treated$ HepG2 cells was decreased by C3G treatment when compared with the control group in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, treatment with C3G recovered the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and catalase in $H_2O_2-treated$ HepG2 cells. To summarize, these results suggest that C3G protects cells from $H_2O_2-induced$ oxidative damage by activating antioxidant enzymes.

This study was performed to determined the antioxidant activities, anticancer and immuno-activities of anthocyanin fraction from Rubus coreanus Miquel fruits (Bokbunja). Anthocyanin fraction extracted from Bokbunja revealed the presence of three anthocyanin components, which were tentatively identified as cyanidin 3-O-sambubioside, cyanidin 3-O-xylosylrutinoside and cyanidin 3-O-rutinoside using RP-HPLC/DAD/MS. The anthocyanin fraction from Bokbunja always showed reducing power and high scavenging activities against DPPH, hydroxy radical (OH) and superoxide anion radical ($O_2{^-}$) similar to general synthetic antioxidant and polyphenol compounds from plant origin. Anthocyanin fraction from Bokbunja showed high inhibition on proliferation of LNCaP and A549 cells and did not inhibit the proliferation of other cancer cells. Immuno-activities of Anthocyanin fraction from Bokbunja were investigated, it showed high promotion of human B and T cells growth about 50% and secretion of IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ by treatment after 6 days. Over all, the result of the study suggest that anthocyanin fraction from Bokbunja displays antioxidant activity comparable to that general synthetic antioxidant, also, anthocyanin fraction from Bokbunja are expected to be good candidate for development into source of anticaner and immuno-activator agent in food industry.

Cyanidin 3 - rutinoside chloride (CRC) is major anthocyanin, found in Schisandra chinensis, is known to have antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, tonic, and anti-aging effects in Korea, China and Japan. In the present study, the human mast cell line (HMC-1) was used to investigate the effects on the production of pro-inflammatory mediators. In this study, CRC showed no cytotoxicity in HMC-1. CRC significantly inhibited the secretion of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor $(TNF)-{\alpha}$ and interleukin (IL)-6 in PMA plus A23187 cacium ionophore (PMACI)-stimulated HMC-1 cells. In addition, CRC suppressed the serum levels of IgE. Furthermore, CRC decreased the PMACI- stimulated phosphorylation of mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as p-ERK, p- JNK and p-P38. These results indicate that the pharmacological actions of CRC suggest their potential activity for treatment of allergic inflammation through the down-regulation of mast cell activation.

Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) shows anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects; however, its effect on postprandial blood glucose levels remains unknown. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors regulate post-prandial hyperglycemia by impeding carbohydrate digestion in the small intestine. Here, the effect of C3G on ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ and ${\alpha}-amylase$ inhibition and its ability to ameliorate postprandial hyperglycemia in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice were evaluated. ICR normal and STZ-induced diabetic mice were orally administered soluble starch alone or with C3G or acarbose. The half-maximal inhibitory concentrations of C3G for ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ and ${\alpha}-amylase$ were 13.72 and $7.5{\mu}M$, respectively, suggesting that C3G was more effective than acarbose. The increase in postprandial blood glucose levels was more significantly reduced in the C3G groups than in the control group for both diabetic and normal mice. The area under the curve for the diabetic mice was significantly reduced following C3G administration. C3G may be a potent ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ inhibitor and may delay dietary carbohydrate absorption.

Thermal stability of the major color component, cyanidin 3-glucoside, isolated from Korean pigmented rice (Oryza sativa var. Suwon 415) were investigated to explore possible application of value-added natural colors as food additives. The anthocyanin showed red and blue color with maximum absorption peaks at 511 nm and 572 nm in acidic (pH 2.0) and alkaline (pH 9.0) buffer solutions, respectively, and the thermal degradation reactions were carried out with different temperature ranges at $50{\sim}95^{\circ}C$. Degree of degradation was determined with UV/Vis spectra which indicate characteristic absorption patterns with sharp isosbestic points at 350 nm (pH 2.0), and 275, 310, and 405 nm (pH 9.0). Thus the reaction follows simple first-order kinetics. The anthocyanin was very stable against heat at acidic pH and relatively stable at alkaline pH with half-life values of 50.3 hr and 0.6 hr at $70^{\circ}C$, respectively. The activation energies and Arrhenius frequency factors of the pigment were 26.9 kcal $mol^{-1}\;and\;6.0{\times}10^{11}\;s^{-1}$, at pH 2.0, and 15.2 kcal $mol^{-1}\;and\;1.4{\times}10^{6}\;s^{-1}$, pH 9.0, and respectively.
