In order to screen new radical scavenging principle which is expected to be antiaging drug lead, we have isolated 160 strains of the marine-derived fungi and investigated 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity for their acetone extracts. The significant activities (>50% Inhibition) were observed in 8 strains of fungi (MFA006, MFA0l4, MFA040, MFA133, MFA139, MFA143, MFA148, MFA153), and among them, MFA153 (Aspergillus parasiticus) showed the most significant radical scavenging activity. The active components were purified by assay-guided isolation to yield two known benzyl alcohols, l53B3 (1) and l53B4 (2), and their structures were determined by physicochemical evidence. Two compounds (1,2) showed the significant radical scavenging activity with $IC_{50}$ values of 0.6 and $1.4{\mu}M$ against DPPH, respectively.

다래순 묵나물을 찬물에 16시간 불리고, 30분 삶은 후 1시간 찬물에 불리는 재수화 과정을 거친 후 다래순의 라디칼 소거 활성과 알파글루코시데이스 억제활성은 유의하게 감소하였으며 재수화된 다래순을 $180^{\circ}C$에서 10분 또는 20분 동안 가열 조리한 경우 들기름 첨가와 관계없이 라디칼 소거활성은 증가하였으나 알파글루코시데이스 억제 활성은 들기름을 첨가하고 가열 조리한 경우에만 증가하였다. 다래순의 라디칼 소거 활성과 알파글루코시데이스 억제 활성 변화는 색소보다는 산화방지제, 플라보노이드 또는 토코페롤보다는 폴리페놀 화합물 함량 변화와 더 유사한 경향을 보였다. 따라서 본 결과는 다래순 묵나물의 재수화 또는 가열 조리 시 산화 방지, 항당뇨 등 건강기능성 개선을 위해 폴리페놀 화합물의 손실을 줄이는 것이 바람직함을 시사하였다.

The EtOAc fraction of Lespedeza cyrtobotrya showed mushroom tyrosinase inhibitory and radical scavenging activities. Four active compounds were isolated based on Sephadex LH-20 chromatography and HPLC, and the structures were elucidated, on the basis of their LC-MS and NMR spectral data, as 2-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-6-hydroxybenzofuran (1), eriodictyol-7-O-glucopyranoside (2), haginin A (3), and dalbergioidin (4), respectively. Compound (1) showed mushroom tyrosinase inhibitory activity with an $IC_{50}$ value of $5.2\;{\mu}M$ and acted as a competitive inhibitor. Furthermore, $37.3\;{\mu}M$ of compound 1 reduced 50% of the melanin content on human melanoma (MNT-1) cells. The radical scavenging activities of compounds 1, 2, 3, and 4 were shown to have $IC_{50}$ values of 11.0, 24.5, 9.0, and $36.5\;{\mu}M$, respectively, in an ABTS system and $IC_{50}$ values of 42.7, 36.0, 37.7, and $61.7\;{\mu}M$, respectively, in a DPPH system. The mushroom tyrosinase inhibitory activity of the EtOAc fraction of Lespedeza cyrtobotrya was contributed by compounds 1, 3, and 4, and its radical scavenging activity was contributed by compounds 1-4.

Water and methanolic extracts of Ecklonia cava, a marine brown alga, were prepared by ultrasonic extraction (UE) and conventional extraction (CE) methods. The radical-scavenging activity and the inhibitory effects against hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$)-induced DNA damage of the extracts were investigated. All extracts prepared by CE exhibited higher total polyphenolic content than that in the extracts prepared by UE. Extraction yield and total phenolic content increased as the UE time increased. The radical-scavenging activities increased as the UE time increased. All extracts prepared by CE exhibited higher 1,1-diphenyl-2-pricrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and hydroxyl radical-scavenging activities than did those prepared by UE. Extracts prepared by UE showed stronger scavenging activities on alkyl radical and $H_2O_2$ than those prepared by CE did. Methanolic extract with UE 12 h (100MEU-12h) and methanolic extract with CE 24 h (100MEC-24h) were selected and evaluated by comet assay for their inhibitory effect against $H_2O_2$-induced DNA damage. 100MEU-12h showed slightly greater protective effect against $H_2O_2$-induced DNA damage than 100MEC-24h. Thus, UE can be effectively used as a seaweed extraction technique, and there is potential for scale-up of the extraction process.

As a part of our search for novel antioxidants from the seaweeds, we have investigated radical scavenging effect for their crude extracts using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, authentic peroxynitrite, and 3-morpholinsydnonimine (SIN-1), a peroxynitrite-generating species in vitro. Thirty-four seaweeds were screened for $ONOO^-$ and DPPH radical scavenging activities. A potent inhibitory effect against peroxynitrite generated by SIN-1 at $5{\mu}g/ml$ of methanol extracts was observed in order of Ishige okamurae(95.3%), Sargassum hemiphyllum(90.2%), Symphyocladia latiuscula(89.6%), Porphyra suborbiculata(86.7%), and Gelidium amamsii(85.9%), Also, a significant scavenging effect against direct authentic peroxynitrite was revekaled for methanol extracts of Ishige okamurae(66.2%) and Sargassum hemiphyllum(55.2%) and the acetone/methylene chloride(1:1) extract of Gigatina tenella (61.0%). In our measurement for evaluating the capacity to scavenge the stable free radical of DPPH, acetone/methylene chloride(1:1) extracts of Symphyocladia latiuscula, Gloiopeltis furcata, and Sargassum thunbergii and the methanol extract of Sargassum sp. showed an inhibitory potency of 85.8%, 82.8%, 74.1%, and 64.0%, respectively.

본 실험은 electron spin/paramagnetic resonance(ESR/EPR)를 이용하여 기존의 DPPH free radical 소거 활성을 측정하였고, 이를 해조류 유래 천연자원으로부터 새로운 항산화물질을 탐색하는데 적용해 보았다. 연구 결과, 녹조류 추출물에서는 참홑파래, 납작파래 및 청각의 고온 메탄올 추출물에서만 약간의 라디칼 소거활성을 나타내었고, 이 외의 추출물에서는 소거활성이 거의 보이지 않았다. 갈조류는 총 71개의 추출물 중 37개의 추출물에서 80% 이상의 소거율을 보여 아주 우수한 항산화 물질을 가진 family로 여겨지며, 특히 모자반류 (Sargassum spp.)는 수용성과 메탄올, 고온과 상온의 모든 추출물에서 높은 라디칼 소거 활성을 보여 앞으로의 신소재 물질 후보로 선별되었다. 홍조류에서는 수용성보다는 메탄올 추출물에서 대체적으로 높은 소거활성이 검색되어, 나중에는 유기용매 분획물을 제조하여 라디칼 소거능을 측정 할 수 있을 것이다. 이처럼 해조류는 라키칼 소거 능력을 가지는 성분을 여러 형태로 다량으로 함유 하고 있는 것으로 사료 되며 앞으로의 연구에 기대가치를 더해 줄 것으로 사료된다.

Antioxidative and free radical scavenging properties of different stem extracts of Euphorbia trigona were evaluated and correlated with its total phenolic content. Aqueous, acetone and methanolic extracts of shade dried stem were obtained and were concentrated in vacuo. The antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities of stem extracts was determined by 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging assay, reducing power assay, deoxyribose degradation assay and $Fe^{2+}$ chelating assay. Total phenolic contents (TPC) were evaluated using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent. The results confirmed that the plant is a rich source of polyphenolic compounds which are invariably higher compared to other herbs. All extracts showed TPC in the range of 146.6 - 168.6 mg/g gallic acid equivalents at $300{\mu}g/ml$ of extract. Among the three extracts ME showed highest scavenging activity as evidenced by maximum scavenging of DPPH (83.2%), $OH{\bullet}$ radicals (94.81%), $Fe^{2+}$ chelating activity (88.59%) and a high reducing power 0.623 at $300{\mu}g/ml$. Our results demonstrate that Euphorbia trigona, an unexplored xerophytic plant could be potential source of natural antioxidants and phytotherapeutic agents. The plant possess invariably high amount of polyphenolic compounds with a broad spectrum of antioxidant properties and could be further used for food, feed and pharmaceutical applications.

Hydrogen-donating capacity, scavenging activity of reactive oxygen including superoxide anion radical and hydrogen peroxide, metal-chelating activity, and reducing power of garlic extracts were investigated. All tested garlic extracts exhibited in vitro antioxidant activities, with Uiseong extract showing highest hydrogen-donating and hydrogen peroxide-scavenging activities, and reducing power, followed by Seosan and Samchek extracts, in proportion to total thiosulfinate contents. Higher scavenging activity of superoxide anion radical was observed in Uiseong than Seosan and Samchek extracts. Metal-chelating activity increased in order of Uiseong < Seosan < Samchek, showing inverse relations to total thiosulfinate content. Garlic extracts of Uiseong and Seosan showed weak prooxidant activities and that of Samchek showed strong antioxidant activity against $Cu^{+2}$-induced human LDL oxidation. Protective effects on peroxyl and hydroxyl radical-induced DNA strand damages were observed in all tested garlic cloves. These results indicate growing conditions of garlic cloves affect total thiosulfinate content and antioxidant activities.

In this study, we evaluated the protective effects of supercritical extracts and two step ethanol extracts after supercritical extraction from Schizandra chinensis on antioxidant activities and oxidative DNA and cell damages. Supercritical extracts removed DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryldrazyl) radical by 85.5% at 200 ${\mu}g$/ml, but showed low activities of scavenging and chelating the hydroxyl radical and ferrous iron. However, two step ethanol extracts showed low activities of scavenging the DPPH radical, but removed the hydroxyl radical by 86% at 200 ${\mu}g$/ml. In addition, we tested the activities of extracts for reducing hydroxyl radical-induced DNA and cell damage. Two step ethanol extracts showed protective effect against the oxidative DNA damage by reducing DNA segmentation, inhibiting DNA migration and decreasing the expression of phospho-H2AX. Also, two step ethanol extracts showed protective effect against the oxidative cell damage by inhibiting lipid peroxidation and increasing the expression of p21 protein. Taken together, we suggest that two step ethanol extracts from S. chinensis have a role as useful inhibitors against oxidative damages.
