In this paper, water extracted polysaccharides from Passiflora edulis peel (WPEP) was degraded by ascorbic acid-hydrogen peroxide (Vc-H 2 O 2 ). The degradation conditions were optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). The 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging rate of degraded WPEP (DWPEP) was 45.38% under optimal conditions (Vc-H 2 O 2 concentration 9.3 mM, temperature 52°C, time 1.4 hr). And the molecular weight (Mw) of DWPEP (38 kDa) was 32.20% (WPEP was 118 kDa). WPEP and DWPEP were mainly composed of galacturonic acid. Their backbone structures, functional groups and β-glycoside linkage patterns are similar, however, still with some differences. Antioxidant tests showed that WPEP and DWPEP had strong DPPH radical scavenging ability (93.03% and 81.70%), moderate hydroxyl radical scavenging ability (53.99% and 26.59%), and low reducing power (0.698 and 0.52). In conclusion, these differences in structures and properties may be an important factor affecting the antioxidant activity of polysaccharides. Novelty impact statement In this paper, the Vc-H 2 O 2 system was used to degrade the polysaccharides extracted from Passiflora edulis peel. The molecular weight, intrinsic viscosity, and rigid conformation changed obviously. The degraded polysaccharides are valuable to expand their application and to improve the practical efficacy.

Though the instability of polyphenols in cell culture experiment has been investigated previously, the underlying mechanism is not completely clear yet. Therefore, in this study, the stability of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in cell culture medium DMEM was investigated at 4 °C and 37 °C via UPLC-MS-MS analysis followed by determination of the antioxidant capacity of EGCG. EGCG was instable in DMEM and formed various degradation products derived from its dimer with increasing incubation time with many isomers being formed at both temperatures. The dimer products were more stable at 4 °C than at 37 °C. The structure and formation mechanism of five products were analyzed with four unidentified. Ascorbic acid significantly improved the stability of EGCG by protecting EGCG from auto-oxidation in DMEM, particularly at 4 °C. The antioxidative activity of EGCG in DMEM was determined by DPPH, ABTS and FRAP assay. The antioxidative properties of EGCG continuously decreased over 8 h in DMEM, which was consistent with its course of degradation.

The antioxidant activities of flavonoid mixtures can be used to investigate the synergistic antioxidant mechanism of flavonoids. The antioxidant capacities of three flavonoids (quercetin, baicalein, and daidzein) and β-carotene in binary and ternary mixtures with kaempferol were analyzed using a 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) inhibition assay by means of absorption spectroscopy. The results showed that the number of hydroxyl groups and o-hydroxyl groups had a significant effect on the antioxidant activity of the flavonoids, and the mixture of kaempferol, quercetin, and baicalein showed optimal synergistic antioxidant activity. Compared with quercetin and baicalein, kaempferol had the fastest inhibition rate, and multiple prolonged kinetic processes associated with the scavenging of DPPH radicals occurred in mixtures of kaempferol with the other flavonoids and β-carotene. Kaempferol has a potential synergistic antioxidant effect when mixed with daidzein and β-carotene, and the results suggested that this may be due to the regeneration of kaempferol after antioxidation. By means of classic UV-Vis spectroscopy, reaction details of the synergistic antioxidant process of DPPH radical scavenging by flavonoids can be obtained.

In this study, carboxylic acids compounds were grafted onto chitooligosaccharides to prepare seven phenyl/indolyl-acyl chitooligosaccharides derivatives. The structures of the derivatives were characterized by IR spectroscopy, 13 C NMR and elemental analysis. Meanwhile, antioxidant activities in vitro of the novel derivatives were analyzed. Compared to COS and carboxylic acid, the derivatives showed higher scavenging capacity for superoxide anion and DPPH radicals, with scavenging rates of 59.39% and 94.86%, respectively. The hydroxyl radical scavenging ability of the derivatives was only 18.89%. The antifungal activities of chitooligosaccharide derivatives against Diaporthe batatas and Phytophthora capsici were studied by the growth rate method. Compared with chitooligosaccharide itself, derivatives were inhibited by 97.77% and 100%. The above results showed that chitooligosaccharide derivatives have good biocompatibility and can be used in food, agriculture and medicine.

In order to provide new information on the antioxidant activities before and after in vitro digestion of selected fruits for consumers, nutritionists, and food policy makers, total phenolic contents and antioxidant capacities of 33 fruits were evaluated by Folin–Ciocalteu method, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity assay (DPPH), Ferric reducing antioxidant power assay (FRAP), and ABTS •+ radical cation scavenging activity (ABTS) assay, respectively. The correlations between DPPH, FRAP, ABTS values and total phenolic contents were also evaluated. The results showed that different fruits had diverse antioxidant capacities and the variation was very large. Before the gastric and duodenal phases of in vitro digestion, there was a high positive correlation between the DPPH, FRAP, ABTS values, and total phenolic contents. After the digestion, however, the correlations between the results and the total phenolic contents were poor. Four fruits, plum (sanhua) ( Prunus salicina Lindl), red bayberry ( Myrica rubra (Lour.)), plum (green) ( P. salicina Lindl), and mango (shuixian) ( Mangifera indica Linn) showed the strongest antioxidant activities they were before or after the digestion, which implied that these fruits were important natural sources for preventing oxidative stress diseases.

The combinatorial use of dietary jujube (Ziziphus jujuba) and ginger play a critical role in traditional Chinese medicines, folk medicine and dietary therapy. Joint effects were investigated from the viewpoint of the antioxidant (scavenging DPPH˙) and antitumor activities (against SW620 cells) of jujube polysaccharides and ginger 6-gingerol (G6G) alone and in combination. Jujube polysaccharides were extracted, purified, and characterized, and then their inhibiting and apoptotic effects alone and in combination with G6G were evaluated by the cytological tests, including Cell Counting Kit-8, colony-forming, Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide, TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining, and cell cycle assays. Results showed that the purified polysaccharide fraction (ZJPs-II) with average molecular weight of 115 kDa consisted of arabinose, rhamnose, glucose, xylose, and galactose. ZJPs-II and G6G alone dose-dependently scavenged DPPH˙ and inhibited the proliferation of SW620 cells, while their combination showed synergistic interactions (all combination index < 1). The studies further demonstrated that ZJPs-II and G6G alone reduced the cell colony-formation, induced apoptosis and arrested the cell-cycle at G2/M phase, while their combination achieved better effects and significantly arrested the growth at the G0/G1 phase. Collectively, our findings suggest enhancing the intake of jujube polysaccharides and G6G in a combinatorial approach for maintaining health and preventing cancer.

A novel water-soluble acidic heteropolysaccharide, called PPL-1, was purified fromPueraria lobata. PPL-1 had an average molecular weight of 35 Kad, and it was composed of glucose, arabinose, galactose and galacturonic acid (6.3:0.8:0.8:2.1). In accordance with methylation and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses, PPL-1 primarily consisted of (1→2)-linked α-Araf, (1→4)-linked α-Glcp, (1→)-linked β-Glcp, (1→6)-linked α-Glcp, (1→3,6)-linked α-Galp, (1→)-linked β-GalpA and (1→4)-linked α-GalpA. In terms of bioactivities, PPL-1 exhibited remarkable scavenging ability towards DPPH (1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radicals and moderate activity by enhancing the proliferation rate of RAW 264.7 cells by approximately 30% along with the secretion of NO. This work demonstrates that PPL-1 can be a potential source of immunoenhancers and antioxidants.Keywords:Pueraria lobata;polysaccharide;structure;bioactivity

Given the abundance of beneficial properties and enzymes secreted by edible oyster mushrooms, their mycelium could serve as a starter for fermented foods to enhance their nutritional and bioactive quality. This study aimed to investigate the effects on the nutritional ingredients, antioxidant activity, and non-volatile metabolites during solid-state fermentation (SSF) of soybeans by Pleurotus ostreatus mycelium. The results indicated that the contents of dietary fiber and starch in fermented soybeans decreased, while the amounts of protein and lipid increased after SSF (P < 0.05). Analysis of the total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activities of the fermented soybeans revealed that the methanolic extracts significantly increased TPC and antioxidant activities against intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages, as well as against DPPH and ABTS radicals in vitro. A total 154 differential metabolites were identified after SSF, and a Spearman correlation study revealed a direct relationship between antioxidant activities and certain metabolites including phenolic compounds, oligopeptides, and free fatty acids etc. Among these metabolites, phenolic compounds produced by the shikimic acid pathway were diverse in variety and had the greatest multiple differences. The study discovered that a potential mechanism involving SSF with P. ostreatus mycelium increased the antioxidant activity of soybeans.

Guanxin Shutong capsule (GSC) is a traditional Chinese medicinal prescription used in the treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD) and angina pectoris in clinic. However, the chemical profile of GSC is still uncovered, which hindered the progress of pharmacological study and clinical application. Herein, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) together with high resolution mass spectrometry (HR-MS) techniques were employed to analyze the quality consistency and to identify chemical components in GSC. As a result, a total of 111 compounds were tentatively annotated. Quantitative analysis based on HPLC-ultraviolet detection (UV) was performed for 6 main components and fingerprints of 10 different batches of GSC were established. The developed method was validated for linearity, precision, repeatability, stability, and recovery. The quality evaluation and similarity analysis of the 10 batches were also performed. Furthermore, in vitro antioxidant activity assays demonstrated that GSC exhibited potential DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging capacities. Especially, salvianolic acids showed the strongest free radical scavenging capacities, which might be the main component for quality control of GSC.

BackgroundTinosporae Radix is a valuable plant with applications in medicinal and edible fields. Alkaloids are one of the main active components of Tinosporae Radix, showing prominent antioxidant activity and great potential in healthcare fields.ObjectiveResponse surface method was applied to determine the optimal enrichment process of total alkaloids of Tinosporae Radix (TRTA). Antioxidant alkaloid components were screened by characteristic chromatogram, antioxidant analysis and molecular docking, so as to provide the basis for Tinosporae Radix to develop as a medicinal and edible homologous plant and antioxidant products.MethodsIn this study, a single-factor investigation experiment and a response surface optimization experiment were used to determine the optimal enrichment process of D101 macroporous resin. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was employed to establish the characteristic chromatogram of TRTA, after which chemometrics was applied to evaluate the data. The antioxidant activity of TRTA was assessed using DPPH and ABTS assays. Grey relational analysis was applied to explore the spectrum-effect relationship, and molecular docking techniques were combined to predict targets of antioxidant activity.ResultsThe best enrichment process of total alkaloids is presented as follows: water removal 3 BV, 10% ethanol removal 3 BV, and 30% ethanol elution 3 BV. And all four identified alkaloid components contributed to the antioxidant activity of TRTA, potentially processing binding interactions with multiple antioxidant protein targets, including TNF, NO-1 and XOD.ConclusionsAlkaloids significantly contributed to the antioxidant activity of TRTA, with columbamine and palmatine playing particularly prominent roles. And the antioxidant activity of TRTA is likely exerted through a complex multi-component, multi-target mechanism, involving the coordinated action of various alkaloid components and multiple biological targets.HighlightsThe optimized enrichment process demonstrated remarkable efficiency in concentrating total alkaloids from Tinosporae Radix. This study contributes significantly to the formulation of its quality control methods.

Michelia champaca L. (Magnoliaceae) was cultivated in large scale for flowers as cosmetic raw materials, whereas the value of its leaves remains to be discovered. Our chemical study on the leaves yielded four new flavonol diglycosides, champaflavosides A–D ( 1 – 4 ), together with twenty-three known flavonoid glycosides ( 5 – 27 ). Their structures were determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods. Compounds 5 – 21 and 23 – 27 were not previously reported from the genus Michelia , and kaempferol 3- O -rutinoside ( 22 ) was obtained from this species for the first time. All the compounds were evaluated for antioxidant activity by four in vitro assays. Compounds 3 – 12 and 20 showed more potent 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity than l -ascorbic acid ( l -AA). Compounds 2 – 23 , 25 , and 27 exhibited 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical cation scavenging activity superior to l -AA. The ferric reducing antioxidant powers (FRAP) of compounds 2 – 13 , 17 , and 19 were higher than l -AA. Further, eighteen compounds demonstrated cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activity, of which champaflavoside D ( 4 ), rhamnetin 3- O -neohesperidoside ( 8 ), quercetin 3- O -(6- O - E - p -coumaroyl)-neohesperidoside ( 9 ), and liquiritin ( 27 ) were more potent than curcumin. The results revealed that the renewable leaves of M. champaca are a rich source of flavonoids and antioxidants.

Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods including NMR, circular dichroism (CD) spectra and comparison of the NMR data with reported in references. The antioxidant activities of all compounds were evaluated by DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP methods. Compounds 2 (IC 50 : 33.98 ± 0.11 μM), 3 (IC 50 : 32.97 ± 0.63 μM), 8 (IC 50 : 32.07 ± 1.57 μM), and 9 (IC 50 : 33.30 ± 2.29 μM) showed stronger DPPH free radical scavenging activity than l -ascorbic acid (IC 50 : 64.31 ± 1.32 μM). Except for 4 , the other compounds showed ABTS radical scavenging abilities comparable to l -ascorbic acid (54.91 ± 1.18 μM) with the IC 50 ranged from 24.42 ± 1.78 μM to 138.70 ± 13.58 μM. Compound 3 (0.72 ± 0.02 mmol/g) showed the same ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) as l -ascorbic acid (0.83±0.02 mmol/g).
