The diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae), is a notorious cruciferous vegetable pest globally. Mechanically damaged geranium (Pelargonium × hortorum) can strongly repel DBM, but specific plant bioactive compounds responsible for such effects have not been identified. The headspace volatiles from wounded geranium were analyzed using gas chromatography–electroantennographic detection and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. The electrophysiological and behavioral responses of DBM females to these chemicals and two blends were investigated. The results showed that five components myrcene, γ-terpinene, linalool, camphor, and terpinen-4-ol in geranium plants mediated the repellence of DBM mated females. These substances significantly repelled the oviposition of females, and blend-2 (a mixture of the five components with a ratio 1:5:3:4:3) was most effective. The slow-release blend-2 had a repellent range of 0.9 m and a repellent longevity of 26 days. These five substances are promising behavioral regulators of the destructive moths and could be potential candidates for “push” components in plant-based “push–pull” strategies.

In this study, an efficient approach to preparation of different anthocyanins from Purple-heart Radish was developed by combining microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), macroporous resin purification (MRP) and ultrasound-assisted acid hydrolysis (UAAH) for evaluation of physicochemical stability and pancreatic lipase (PL) inhibitory activity. By optimization of MAE, MRP and UAAH processes, the anthocyanins reached the yield of 6.081 ± 0.106 mg/g, the purity of 78.54 ± 0.62 % (w/w) and the content of 76.29 ± 1.31 % (w/w), respectively. With high-resolution UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap/MS, 15 anthocyanins were identified as pelargonins with diverse glucosides and confirmed by pelargonidin standard. By glycosylation, pelargonins exhibited higher stability in different pH, temperature, light, metal ions environments than that of pelargonidin. However, PL inhibitory assay, kinetic analysis and molecular docking demonstrated that pelargonidin had higher PL inhibitory activity than pelargonins even though with similar binding sites and a dose–effect relationship. The above results revealed that the effect of glycosylation and deglycosylation on PL inhibitory activity and physicochemical stability.

As an alternative preservation method to thermal treatment, ultrasound is a novel non-thermal processing technology that can significantly avoid undesirable nutritional changes. However, recently literature indicated that anthocyanin degradation occurred when high amplitude ultrasound was applied to juice. This work mainly studied the effect of ultrasound on the stability and antioxidant capacity of pelargonidin-3-glucoside (Pg-3-glu) and the correlation between anthocyanin degradation and •OH generation in a simulated system. Results indicated that the spectral intensities of Pg-3-glu decreased with increasing ultrasound power (200–500 W) and treatment time (0–60 min). The degradation trend was consistent with first-order reaction kinetics (R2> 0.9100). Further study showed that there was a good linear correlation between Pg-3-glu degradation and •OH production (R2= 0.8790), which indicated the important role of •OH in the degradation of anthocyanin during ultrasound exposure. Moreover, a decrease in the antioxidant activity of solution(s) containing Pg-3-glu as evaluated by the DPPH and FRAP methods was observed after ultrasound treatment.Keywords:ultrasound;cavitation;degradation;pelargonidin-3-glucoside;antioxidant activity;mechanism

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a worldwide public health issue, but a widely accepted therapy is still lacking until now. Anthocyanins are natural flavonoid compounds that possess various bioactivities, but their applications are limited due to their low bioavailability and stability. Acylated anthocyanins are reported to show higher stability, whereas their effects on NAFLD are still unclear. Herein, pelargonidin-3-O-(6′′-acetyl)-glucoside (Ace Pg3G) was found to dose-dependently reduce intracellular lipid droplets and triglycerides, and improve cellular oxidative stress that accompanied lipid deposition. Besides, Ace Pg3G was proved to activate AMPK phosphorylation, thus stimulating AMPK-mediated lysosome-autophagy pathway to eliminate overloaded lipid. Further study unveiled that Ace Pg3G regulated genes related to lipid metabolism downstream of AMPK to inhibit lipid synthesis and accelerate lipid oxidation. Overall, this study provided the first evidence, to our best knowledge, that Ace Pg3G ameliorated free fatty acid-induced lipid deposition in hepatocytes through regulating AMPK-mediated autophagy pathways and redox state.

The present study is aimed to clarify the absorption and metabolism properties of pelargonidin-based anthocyanins. Results showed that pelargonidin-3-O-rutinoside (Pg3R) was absorbed in its intact form after oral administration and reached a maximum plasma concentration of 175.38 ± 55.95 nM at 60 min. Three main metabolites were identified in plasma, including Pg3R-monoglucuronide (m/z 755.2046), Pg3R-hydroxylated (m/z 595.1644), and Pg3R-demethylated (m/z 565.1569) metabolites. The plasma concentration of the Pg3R-demethylated metabolite (57.04 ± 23.15 nM) was much higher than that of other two metabolites, indicating that demethylation was the main metabolic pathway for Pg3R, while the glucuronide conjugate was detected as the dominant metabolic form of pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside (Pg3G). The bioavailability of Pg3R (1.13%) was fourfold higher than that of Pg3G (0.28%), demonstrating that anthocyanins linked to the rutinoside may exhibit higher bioavailability than that of glucoside. In vitro transport study unveiled that passive diffusion and active efflux were involved in the absorption of Pg3R and Pg3G.

The chemical synthesis of anthocyanins, especially delphinidin-3-O-glucoside and petunidin-3-O-glucoside, is preferable due to the challenges associated with their extraction and purification. However, the reported methods for the synthesis are scarce and intricate. Our research focused on exploring a one-step ester-to-ketone process and optimizing the ring formation reaction, simplifying and improving the overall synthesis strategy. Through these attempts, we were able to achieve higher production yields of delphinidin-3-O-glucoside and petunidin-3-O-glucoside. According to the results of DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP, the antioxidant activity of anthocyanins was increased with the number of B ring hydroxyl substituent. Additionally, both delphinidin-3-O-glucoside and petunidin-3-O-glucoside exhibited no cytotoxicity effects, highlighting their potential for safe application in various fields.

Anthocyanins are natural products that display diverse bioactivities but are limited in their applications by low stability and bioavailability. Acylated anthocyanins are found to possess higher stability, while their bioactivities are still obscure. In this study, acetylation of pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside (Pg3G) was catalyzed by Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) for the first time, with a conversion rate up to 88.77% over 48 h. The acetylated product was identified as pelargonidin-3-O-(6′′-acetyl)-glucoside and its properties were detected. Notably, acetylated Pg3G (Ace Pg3G) possessed better thermostability and lipophilicity than Pg3G, indicating a longer retention time at physiological pH and facilitating penetration into the lipophilic medium as well as the cell membrane. Most importantly, Ace Pg3G exerted better alleviation effects against H2O2-induced oxidative hepatic damage than parent Pg3G via activating the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway and upregulating the expressions of the downstream phase II detoxification enzymes GCLC and HO-1, thereby reversing redox imbalance and enhancing cell survival. Overall, our research unveiled the better health benefits of Ace Pg3G and also provided new insights about the applications of acetylated anthocyanins in food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical products.

The quantum chemical density functional theory and in vitro chemical-based antioxidant assays were used to research the reaction mechanism of delphinidin/pelargonidin with free radicals including superoxide anion radicals (O 2 − ∙) and hydroperoxide radicals (OOH∙). The geometric configuration, bond dissociation energy, PCM (polarizable continuum model) solvent model reaction enthalpy changes were studied to explain the transition states, and the reaction enthalpy change value was calculated to determine the active site. From the results of spatial configuration, delphinidin showed a stronger conjugation effect than that of pelargonidin. The dihedral angle between the three rings of delphinidin was almost 180°, and the angle between the B and C rings was only −2.81868°. Both coplanar and antioxidant activity of delphinidin was better than pelargonidin. The consequences of reaction enthalpy change in PCM were consistent with the bond dissociation energy. The phenolic hydroxyl bond dissociation energy of delphinidin was slightly smaller than that of pelargonidin. Moreover, the C4' site of delphinidin and the C3 site of pelargonidin were the active sites for scavenging free radicals. The free radical scavenging ability of delphinidin was marginally higher than that of pelargonidin. On the other hand, in vitro antioxidant results proved the scavenging ability of delphinidin and pelargonidin on superoxide anions, DPPH, and ABTS ∙+ free radicals. It was shown that the chemical-based antioxidant activity was consistent with the theoretical calculation results, with delphinidin showing greater antioxidant activity. These results could explain the antioxidant mechanism of delphinidin/pelargonidin in scavenging free radicals from chemical reactions. Practical applications This manuscript explained the antioxidant mechanism of delphinidin/pelargonidin in scavenging free radicals through the analysis of the geometric configuration of delphinidin/pelargonidin and the theoretical calculation of the reaction transition state. It could also speculate on the possible reaction sites, and provide a basis for judging how to efficiently select antioxidants with great antioxidant activity.

The stability and antioxidant activity changes of 10 phytochemicals (isoflavones: genistein, genistin, daidzein, daidzin, formononetin, and anthocyanidins: delphinidin, cyanidin, pelargonidin, malvidin, petunidin) and food representatives (soybeans and blueberries) during in vitro digestion were investigated. Results indicated that the stability of isoflavones and anthocyanidins decreased with digestion. Among the isoflavones, the loss rate of formononetin was the largest, reaching 98.24%, and that of daidzein was the smallest (22.78%). And after intestinal digestion, anthocyanidins degraded into phenolic acids and other compounds, and the loss rate was above 95%. The loss of phenolic compounds in food extract was smaller than the standards, and the loss rate of phenolic compounds in hydrolyzed blueberry extracts (90.66%–96.04%) was higher than that of soybean extract (31.22%–59.74%). Moreover, the antioxidant activity of isoflavones and anthocyanidins decreased after the oral phase. During the gastrointestinal phase, the ABTS, DPPH and FRAP of isoflavones increased, while the ORAC and CAA decreased. The antioxidant activity of anthocyanidins increased in the gastric digestion and decreased in the intestinal phase. The glucoside linkage in the A ring and the hydroxyl methoxylation in the B ring weakened the antioxidant activity of isoflavones, while the hydroxylation and methoxylation of B rings of anthocyanidins could enhance thier antioxidant activity. The changes in antioxidant activity of the two food extracts were consistent with their contents.

Photothermal nanomaterials have shown great potential for photothermal therapy. In this study, we developed a simple green method of magnesiothermic co-reduction for the synthesis of mesoporous, magnetic and biodegradable iron silicide nanoparticles (FeSi NPs) as applied to photothermal therapy (PTT). Starting from biogenic tabasheer extracted from bamboo and Fe2O3, the resultant FeSi NPs with a much lower band gap exhibited excellent optical absorption with a photothermal conversion efficiency of 76.2%, indicating a good photothermal performance. The weight extinction coefficient was measured to be 13.3 L g−1 cm−1 at 1064 nm (second near-infrared window, NIR-II), which surpassed the performance of other competitive Si-based and Fe-based photothermal agents. Results of the cell viability assay showed that cells could be killed by NIR-II laser irradiation with the synthesized FeSi NPs. In vivo results on mice showed clearly an efficient suppression of tumour growth by photothermal treatment with FeSi NPs. FeSi NPs were found to be biodegradable in simulated body fluids. The results from our work indicate that FeSi NPs are a new class of promising photothermal agents (PTAs) for application in cancer therapy.

A deep understanding upon the relation between anthocyanin extraction performance and physicochemical properties of natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) was obtained, and a high-efficiency NADES (Choline chloride-Oxalic acid (ChOa)) was selected and coupled with pulse-ultrasonication for anthocyanin extraction from blueberry pomace . Response surface methodology was adopted to analyzed the significant factors’ influence, interactive effects on extraction yield and optimize the extraction conditions. The theoretical optimal conditions with highest yield of total anthocyanins content (TAC) were 3.2 min of ultrasonic time, 325 W of ultrasonic power, 349.15 K of temperature, 60 mL/g of solvent to solid ratio, under which the experimental TAC value (24.27 ± 0.05 mg C3GE/g DW) was highly correlated with theoretical result (24.28 mg C3GE/g DW). Multi-stability protective effect of ChOa on anthocyanin over acidified ethanol was revealed by stability assays in high temperature, varying pH and light exposure conditions. FT-IR and DSC analysis further characterized the influence of ChOa over acidic ethanol on typical anthocyanins functional groups and thermal behavior of anthocyanin extracts. UPLC-Triple-TOF/MS analysis identified 10 anthocyanins that mainly consisted of delphinidin , petunidin , and malvidin compounds. Overall, this study provided a green, high-efficiency and multi-stability protective strategy for the recovery of anthocyanins from plant source by-products.

The fruit of Lycium ruthenicum Murray has been widely used as a precious Chinese herbal medicine. In this study, the major anthocyanin in L. ruthenicum fruit was obtained via an AKTA purifier system with YMC-Pack ODS-A column and identified by mass and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to be petunidin 3- O -[6- O -(4- O -( trans - p -coumaroyl)-α- l -rhamnopyranosyl)-β- d -glucopyranoside]-5- O -[β- d -glucopyranoside] (compound 1 ). Compound 1 exhibited higher scavenging activities against 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid), 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydra-zyl and superoxide radicals than the crude extract of anthocyanins. Moreover, compound 1 was demonstrated to have potential cytoprotective effect on hydrogen peroxide-induced intracellular reactive oxygen damage in neuronlike rat pheochromocytoma line cells by promoting cell proliferation, mitigating lipid peroxidation and regulating endogenous antioxidant enzymes (glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase).
