Preparation, Antioxidant Properties and Ability to Increase Intracellular NO of a New Pyridoxine Derivative B6NO.

ABSTRACT: In the case of various pathologies, an imbalance between ROS generation and the endogenous AOS can be observed, which leads to excessive ROS accumulation, intensification of LPO processes, and oxidative stress. For the prevention of diseases associated with oxidative stress, drugs with antioxidant activity can be used. The cytotoxic, antioxidant, and NO-donor properties of the new hybrid compound B6NO (di(3-hydroxy-4,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylpyridinium) salt of 2-(nitrooxy)butanedioic acid) were studied. It was determined that B6NO chelates iron ions by 94%, which indicates B6NO's ability to block the Fenton reaction. The hybrid compound B6NO inhibits the process of initiated lipid peroxidation more effectively than pyridoxine. It was shown that B6NO exhibits antioxidant properties by decreasing ROS concentration in normal cells during the oxidative stress induction by tert-Butyl peroxide. At the same time, the B6NO antioxidant activity on tumor cells was significantly lower. B6NO significantly increases the intracellular nitrogen monoxide accumulation and showed low cytotoxicity for normal cells (IC₅₀ > 4 mM). Thus, the results indicate a high potential of the B6NO as an antioxidant compound.

Antioxidant Properties of the Vam3 Derivative of Resveratrol.

Project description:A considerable number of studies has shown that many constituents of foods derived from plants are effective and safe antioxidants. This explains the growing interest in natural antioxidants in food applications. The goal of this investigation was to evaluate the antioxidant properties of the Vam3, a resveratrol derivative, firstly isolated from ethanol extracts of Vitis amurensis Rupr as a secondary product, and to carry out a comparison with resveratrol and other phenolic compounds which are currently in the limelight all over the world due to their beneficial effects on the human body. The potential of Vam3 as an antioxidant was determined through the evaluation of some key thermodynamic parameters which are commonly used for this purpose and describe the antioxidant activity quite well. Various mechanisms through which antioxidants usually can carry out their action were also explored both in water and in apolar environment. The results indicated that Vam3 is an excellent candidate as a natural antioxidant.

Preparation of Retinoyl-Flavonolignan Hybrids and Their Antioxidant Properties.

Project description:Antioxidants protect the structural and functional components in organisms against oxidative stress. Most antioxidants are of plant origin as the plants are permanently exposed to oxidative stress (UV radiation, photosynthetic reactions). Both carotenoids and flavonoids are prominent antioxidant and anti-radical agents often occurring together in the plant tissues and acting in lipophilic and hydrophilic milieu, respectively. They are complementary in their anti-radical activity. This study describes the synthesis of a series of hybrid ester conjugates of retinoic acid with various flavonolignans, such as silybin, 2,3-dehydrosilybin and isosilybin. Antioxidant/anti-radical activities and bio-physical properties of novel covalent carotenoid-flavonoid hybrids, as well as various mixtures of the respective parent components, were investigated. Retinoyl conjugates with silybin-which is the most important flavonolignan in silymarin complex-(and its pure diastereomers) displayed better 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity than both the parent compounds and their equimolar mixtures.

Preparation and Thermoelectric Properties Study of Bipyridine-Containing Polyfluorene Derivative/SWCNT Composites.

Project description:Polymer/inorganic thermoelectric composites have witnessed rapid progress in recent years, but most of the studies have focused on the traditional conducting polymers. The limited structures of traditional conducting polymers restrain the development of organic thermoelectric composites. Herein, we report the preparation and thermoelectric properties of a series of composites films based on SWCNTs and bipyridine-containing polyfluorene derivatives. The value of the power factor around 12 μW m-1 K-2 was achieved for the composite F8bpy/SWCNTs with a mass ratio of 50/50, and the maximum value of 62.3 μW m-1 K-2 was obtained when the mass ratio reached 10/90. Moreover, taking advantage of the bipyridine unit could chelate various kinds of metal ions to form polymer complexes. The enhanced power factor of 87.3 μW m-1 K-2 was obtained for composite F8bpy-Ni/SWCNTs with a mass ratio of 50/50. Finally, the thermoelectric properties of the bipyridine-containing polyfluorene derivative/SWCNT composites were conveniently tuned by chelating with different metal ions.

Project description:Purpose: This study aimed to challenge the anticancer potency of pentagamavunone-1 (PGV- 1) and obtain a new compound (Chemoprevention-Curcumin Analog 1.1, CCA-1.1) with improved chemical and pharmacological properties. Methods: CCA-1.1 was prepared by changing the ketone group of PGV-1 into a hydroxyl group with NaBH4 as the reducing agent. The product was purified under preparative layer chromatography and confirmed with HPLC to show about 93% purity. It was tested for its solubility, stability, and cytotoxic activities on several cancer cells. The structure of the product was characterized using 1HNMR, 13C-NMR, FT-IR, and HR-mass spectroscopy. Results: Molecular docking analysis showed that CCA-1.1 performed similar or better interaction to NF-κB pathway-related signaling proteins (HER2, EGFR, IKK, ER-alpha, and ER-beta) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolic enzymes (NQO1, NQO2, GSTP1, AKC1R1, and GLO1) compared with PGV-1, indicating that CCA-1.1 exhibits the same or better anticancer activity than PGV-1. CCA-1.1 also showed better solubility and stability than PGV-1 in aqueous solution at pH 1.0-7.4 under light exposure at room temperature. The cytotoxic activities of CCA-1.1 against several (10) cancer cell lines revealed the same or better potency than PGV-1. Conclusion: In conclusion, CCA-1.1 performs better chemical and anticancer properties than PGV-1 and shows promise as an anticancer agent with high selectivity.

Enhanced Antioxidant and Neuroprotective Properties of Pterostilbene (Resveratrol Derivative) in Amorphous Solid Dispersions.

Project description:In this study, amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) of pterostilbene (PTR) with polyvinylpyrrolidone polymers (PVP K30 and VA64) were prepared through milling, affirming the amorphous dispersion of PTR via X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Subsequent analysis of DSC thermograms, augmented using mathematical equations such as the Gordon-Taylor and Couchman-Karasz equations, facilitated the determination of predicted values for glass transition (Tg), PTR's miscibility with PVP, and the strength of PTR's interaction with the polymers. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) analysis validated interactions maintaining PTR's amorphous state and identified involved functional groups, namely, the 4'-OH and/or -CH groups of PTR and the C=O group of PVP. The study culminated in evaluating the impact of amorphization on water solubility, the release profile in pH 6.8, and in vitro permeability (PAMPA-GIT and BBB methods). In addition, it was determined how improving water solubility affects the increase in antioxidant (ABTS, DPPH, CUPRAC, and FRAP assays) and neuroprotective (inhibition of cholinesterases: AChE and BChE) properties. The apparent solubility of the pure PTR was ~4.0 µg·mL-1 and showed no activity in the considered assays. For obtained ASDs (PTR-PVP30/PTR-PVPVA64, respectively) improvements in apparent solubility (410.8 and 383.2 µg·mL-1), release profile, permeability, antioxidant properties (ABTS: IC50 = 52.37/52.99 μg·mL-1, DPPH: IC50 = 163.43/173.96 μg·mL-1, CUPRAC: IC0.5 = 122.27/129.59 μg·mL-1, FRAP: IC0.5 = 95.69/98.57 μg·mL-1), and neuroprotective effects (AChE: 39.1%/36.2%, BChE: 76.9%/73.2%) were confirmed.

PCL/POSS Nanocomposites: Effect of POSS Derivative and Preparation Method on Morphology and Properties.

Project description:The incorporation of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) molecules as nanoparticles into polymers can provide improved physico-chemical properties. The enhancement depends on the extent of dispersion of the nanofiller, which is determined by the compatibility with the polymer that is by the POSS type, and the processing method. In this study, poly(ε-caprolactone)/POSS derivatives nanocomposites (PCL/POSS) were obtained via solution-casting and melt compounding. Two amino-derivatives containing different alkyl substituents, and ditelechelic POSS-containing hybrid PCL masterbatch were used as nanofillers. The effect of preparation method, POSS content and type on the morphology, thermal, mechanical, and surface properties of nanocomposites were studied. Morphological analysis evidenced the formation of POSS crystalline aggregates, self-assembled POSS molecules of submicrometer size dispersed in the polymer matrix. The best dispersion was achieved using the ditelechelic POSS-containing hybrid PCL masterbatch, and comparing the two amino-POSS derivatives, the one with longer alkyl chain of substituents exhibited better degree of dispersion independent of preparation method. DSC analysis showed the role of POSS derivatives as nucleating agents for PCL. The incorporation of POSS derivatives into the PCL matrix improved thermal stability. The preparation method, POSS type and content had influence on mechanical properties of nanocomposites. POSS nanoparticles enhanced the surface hydrophobicity of PCL.

Frataxins Emerge as New Players of the Intracellular Antioxidant Machinery.

Project description:Frataxin is a mitochondrial protein which deficiency causes Friedreich's ataxia, a cardio-neurodegenerative disease. The lack of frataxin induces the dysregulation of mitochondrial iron homeostasis and oxidative stress, which finally causes the neuronal death. The mechanism through which frataxin regulates the oxidative stress balance is rather complex and poorly understood. While the absence of human (Hfra) and yeast (Yfh1) frataxins turn out cells sensitive to oxidative stress, this does not occur when the frataxin gene is knocked-out in E. coli. To better understand the biological roles of Hfra and Yfh1 as endogenous antioxidants, we have studied their ability to inhibit the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from Cu2+- and Fe3+-catalyzed degradation of ascorbic acid. Both proteins drastically reduce the formation of ROS, and during this process they are not oxidized. In addition, we have also demonstrated that merely the presence of Yfh1 or Hfra is enough to protect a highly oxidation-prone protein such as α-synuclein. This unspecific intervention (without a direct binding) suggests that frataxins could act as a shield to prevent the oxidation of a broad set of intracellular proteins, and reinforces that idea that frataxin can be used to prevent neurological pathologies linked to an enhanced oxidative stress.

Preparation, structure elucidation, and antioxidant activity of new bis(thiosemicarbazone) derivatives.

Project description:Schiff-base-bearing new bis(thiosemicarbazone) derivatives were prepared from terephthalaldehyde and various thiosemicarbazides. FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and UV-Vis spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis were used to elucidate the identification of the synthesized molecules. The in vitro antioxidant activity of the synthesized compounds was analysed with the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl free-radical-trapping process. The synthesized compounds exhibited lower antioxidant activity than the standard ascorbic acid. IC50 values of the synthesized molecules measured from 3.81 ± 0.01 to 29.05 ± 0.11 μM. Among the synthesized compounds, compound 3 had the best antioxidant activity. Moreover, this study explained the structure-activity relationship of the synthesized molecules with different substituents in radical trapping reactions.

Valorization of Polysaccharides Obtained from Dark Tea: Preparation, Physicochemical, Antioxidant, and Hypoglycemic Properties.

Project description:The structure and hypoglycemic activity of tea polysaccharides has been extensively studied, while there are few reports on the characterization and hypoglycemic activity of dark tea polysaccharides. The crude dark tea polysaccharide (CDTPS) was optimally extracted from Fuzhuan dark tea. Six polysaccharide fractions (namely DTPS-1, DTPS-2, DTPS-3, DTPS-4, DTPS-5, and DTPS-6) were isolated from CDTPS, and their physicochemical, structural, and biological properties were compared and analyzed. The results revealed that the compositions, structural characteristics, and biological properties of the six DTPSs were different. Therein, DTPS-4 and DTPS-6 had looser morphology, faster solubility, and a more stable structure. Additionally, DTPS-4 had the optimum in vitro antioxidant capabilities, and DTPS-6 had the strongest in vitro hypoglycemic capabilities. In addition, a correlation analysis revealed that the molecular weight and uronic acid content were significantly related to their antioxidant and hypoglycemic activities. Our results indicated that DTPS-4 and DTPS-6 could be further developed into functional foods or additives, respectively.
