A new isoprenylated stilbene, flavestinK (1) together with two known isoprenylated stilbenes, flavestin B (2), flavestin G (3), and two isoprenilated flavanones, 4-O-methyl-8-isoprenylnaringenin (4) and 8-isoprenyl-5,7-dihydroxyflavanone (5) were isolated from the leaves of Macaranga recurvata Gage. All of the structures have been determined based on HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR spectral data. All of the isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against three human cancer cells (HeLa, T47D and WiDr). Compound 1 showed higher activity than doxorubicin against HeLa cells with $IC_{50}$ value of $13.1{\mu}g/mL$.

Norovirus (NV) is the most common cause of viral gastroenteritis, with the potential to develop into a fatal disease in those who are immuno-compromised, and effective vaccines and treatments are still non-existent. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanism of the previously identified NV replication inhibitor utilizing a vinyl-stilbene backbone, AC-1858. First, we confirmed the inhibition of the NV RNA replication by a structural analog of AC-1858, AC-2288 with its exclusive cytoplasmic sub-cellular localization. We further validated the induction of one specific host factor, the phosphorylated form of heat shock factor (HSF)-1, and its increased nuclear localization by AC-1858 treatment. Finally, we verified the positive and negative impact of the siRNA-mediated downregulation and lentivirus-mediated overexpression of HSF-1 on NV RNA replication. In conclusion, these data suggest the restrictive role of the host factor HSF-1 in overall viral RNA genome replication during the NV life cycle.

본 연구에서는 노지재배 포도의 내한성을 증대시킬 수 있는 방법을 모색하고자 간이비가림시설 설치에 따른 식물체의 반응을 조사하였다. 간이비가림시설에서 월동한 식물체의 탄수화물 함량은 노지 처리구에 비해 높았으며, 'Muscat Bailey A'의 줄기보다 '거봉'과 '캠벨얼리' 품종에서 탄수화물의 함량이 높게 나타났다. 노지에 비해 간이비가림시설에서 발아율과 신초의 생장도 양호하였으나 방충망, 차광막을 처리한 구에서는 유의차가 나타나지 않았다. 포도 잿빛곰팡이병의 발생은 간이비가림시설에서 발생이 적었다. Stilbene 화합물 함량은 노지보다 간이비가림 처리구에서 함량이 약간 더 높게 나타났으며 가장 많이 함유된 stilbene은 배당체 형태인 t-piceid였으며, resveratrol, piceatannol, c-piceid에 비해 상당히 고함량을 나타내었다. Chalcone isomerase, manganese superoxide dismutase, proline rich protein 2, temperature induced lipocalin의 transcripts는 시간이 지날수록 유전자의 발현량이 더 많이 축적되었고, 대체적으로 간이비가림시설의 삽수에서 저온 스트레스에 더 강하게 발현되었다. 처리구별 온도차이는 없었으나 노지에 비해 간이비가림시설에서 풍속이 크게 감소하였으며, 간이비가림시설 내에서 차광막을 설치한 경우 풍속의 감소효과가 현저하게 나타났다. 겨울철의 간이비가림시설과 방충망을 설치함으로써 극저온에 의한 포도나무의 저온피해를 줄일 수 있을 것이다.

A phenolic substance was isolated from the bark of Pinus koraiensis. It was identified to be pinostilbenoside. Its anti-$LTD_4$ activity was evaluated using isolated guinea pig trachea, and its half maximal bronchodilating activity ($EC_{50}$) was $593{\pm}56{\mu}g{\cdot}ml^{-1}$. Because it is not known that stilbene derivatives possess anti-asthmatic activity through $LTD_4$ antagonism, here we report the result.

We have synthesized an azobenzene-containing polymer (PEA) and a stilbene-containing polymer (PAS) with second-order nonlinear properties. The second harmonic coefficient ($d_{33}$) of the poled polymer films was 84 and 36 pm/V for of PEA and PAS, respectively. The poled state of these polymers was stable at least up to 30 h at room temperature. $T_g$ of these polymers appeared in the range from 120 to $160^{\circ}C$ and onset of initial weight losses in the range from 260 to $270^{\circ}C$. Silicon moieties in the main chain enhanced the solubility of PEA and PAS in common organic solvents such as chloroform, N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP), N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF), etc.

We studied the characteristics of emissive state of the first (p-G1) and second (p-G2) generation of phenylacetylene dendrimers bearing stilbene as a core by using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy in cyclohexane (c-Hex) and N, N-dimethylformide (DMF), which are nonpolar and polar solvents, respectively. Time-dependent red-shift of emission spectra p-G2 both in c-Hex and DMF was observed in comparison with p-G1. Besides, the time constant of red-shift of spectra was found to be larger in DMF than in c-Hex. This indicates that the emissive state of p-G2 has a polar character in DMF as a result of charge delocalization from core to peripheral dendrons followed by stabilization of emissive state.

The late-stage doxorubicin biosynthesis pathway acting enzyme (DoxA) from Streptomyces peucetius CYP129A2 exhibited substrate promiscuity towards the stilbene group of compounds such as resveratrol. DoxA along with two accessory enzymes ferrdoxin reductase and ferredoxin from spinach hydroxylated resveratrol at the 3'-position in vitro to produce piceatannol. The product was identified by HPLC-PDA and high-resolution HR-qTOF-ESI/MS analyses in positive mode. The ESI/MS fragments resembled the hydroxylated product of resveratrol.

2-(p-Diethylaminostyryl)pyrrole (I) and 2-[5-diethylaminothienyl]vinyl]pyrrole (II) derivatives with systematic variation of the acceptors have been synthesized and their first hyperpolarizabilities were measured. The $\beta$ values increased systematically as the aromatic resonance energy decreased. Moreover, the value of $\beta$ for the former increased gradually as the acceptor strength increased. The opposite trend observed in the latter series of compounds has been attributed to the distorted structure caused by the steric hindrance between the N-methyl group and the acceptor moiety.

We synthesized three kinds of chromophores incorporating aromatic quinoline unit as a $\pi-conjugated$ bridge in order to prepare more thermally stable nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores than general stilbene unit. The NLO poly(methylmethacrylate) copolymer, polyimides, and polyester were successfully synthesized by these corresponding quinoline-based monomers. Their physical and optical properties were investigated by thermogravimetry, gel permeation chromatography, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, second harmonic generation (SHG) and electro-optic (EO) measurement. All the polymers exhibited better thermal stability,however their NLO activity was a little lower than that of general stilbene-based NLO polymers. Among three kinds of polymers, the PMMA copolymer with quinoline chromophores had the largest SHG coefficient d33 value of 27 pm/V (at 1.064 $\mu\textrm{m})$ and EO coefficient r33 value of 6.8 pm/V (at 1.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$).
