- Synthesis, biological evaluation, and molecular docking of dihydroflavonol derivatives as anti-inflammatory agents
-
A series of dihydroflavonol derivatives (4a–4l) were synthesized from chalcones via classical Algar–Flynn–Oyamada (AFO) reaction and characterized on the basis of spectroscopic analyses. All synthesized compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against the pro-inflammatory-inducible TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cell lines and showed various efficiency. Furthermore, compounds 4d and 4k were selected to examine their in vivo anti-inflammatory activity by using two classical models. Herein compound 4k showed maximum anti-inflammatory activity of 32.98% inhibition in mice ear-swelling model and 40.06% inhibition at the 2 h intervals in rat paw edema model in comparison to the two references: aspirin and meloxicam. Similar effect was observed at a lower dose. In addition, the compound 4k was docked against cyclooxygenases-2 to validate the attained pharmacological data and provide understandable evidence for the observed anti-inflammatory activity.

- Design, synthesis and anti-inflammatory activity of dihydroflavonol derivatives
-
Thirty dihydroflavonol derivatives (D1–D30) were designed and synthesized, meanwhile the synthesized compounds were characterized on the basis of spectroscopic analyzes. Their inhibitory activity against the pro-inflammatory inducible interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated murine RAW 264.7 macrophages were evaluated and showed various efficiency. Compounds D1–D30 showed no toxic effects on RAW 264.7 cells at the concentration 20 μM; among them, compounds D9, D13, and D19 exhibited best anti-inflammatory activity through decreasing IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. Furthermore, their structure–activity relationships were discussed preliminarily.

- Purification and characterization of a naringinase from Aspergillus aculeatus JMUdb058
-
A naringinase from Aspergillus aculeatus JMUdb058 was purified, identified, and characterized. This naringinase had a molecular mass (MW) of 348 kDa and contained four subunits with MWs of 100, 95, 84, and 69 kDa. Mass spectrometric analysis revealed that the three larger subunits were β-d-glucosidases and that the smallest subunit was an α-l-rhamnosidase. The naringinase and its α-l-rhamnosidase and β-d-glucosidase subunits all had optimal activities at approximately pH 4 and 50 C, and they were stable between pH 3 and 6 and below 50 C. This naringinase was able to hydrolyze naringin, aesculin, and some other glycosides. The enzyme complex had a Km value of 0.11 mM and a kcat/Km ratio of 14 034 s-1 mM -1 for total naringinase. Its α-l-rhamnosidase and β-d-glucosidase subunits had Km values of 0.23 and 0.53 mM, respectively, and kcat/Km ratios of 14 146 and 7733 s -1 mM-1, respectively. These results provide in-depth insight into the structure of the naringinase complex and the hydrolyses of naringin and other glycosides.
