AB  - Introduction: Chokeberry is a plant belonging to the family Rosaceae which has a long history of edible and medicinal use. The aims of this study are: i) to investigate of HPTLC profile of the berry samples using HPTLC technique based metabolomics approach, ii) to determine the botanical origin of investigated chokeberry adulterations iii) to identify the most important botanical markers responsible for classification. Methods: A simple, rapid, and high-throughput planar chromatography (HPTLC) method was applied in combination with multivariate techniques for differentiating chokeberry samples and identification of the main metabolites of chokeberry and four common adulterants. Images of HPTLC chromatograms obtained using two different detections i.e. visible light and derivatization with natural products reagent were used as a dataset for multivariate analysis. Results: Principal component analysis and Orthogonal Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis confirmed the discrimination of five botanically different samples and recognized their main markers such as responsible for differences between chokeberry and four common adulterants. Conclusion: The obtained results showed that the HPTLC-based metabolomics approach can be a very reliable technique for the detection of chokeberry adulteration.

AB  - Medicinal plants used in European folk medicine attached to Lamiales, Gentianales or Asterales orders are used to treat inflammatory disorders. Many targets have been identified but to date, implication of purinergic receptor P2X7 activation has not yet been investigated. We managed to evaluate the protective effect on P2X7 activation by plant extracts used as anti-inflammatory in European folk medicine by the YO-PRO-1 uptake dye in vitro bioassay. Results revealed that among our selected plants, species from Scrophularia and Plantago genus were able to decrease significantly P2X7 activation (>50 % at 0.1 and 1 μg/mL). UPLC/MS, dereplication and metabolomic analysis of Scrophularia extracts, allowed us to identify the cinnamoyl-iridoid harpagoside as putative inhibitor of P2X7 activation. These results open a new research field regarding the anti-inflammatory mechanism of cinnamoyl-iridoids bearing plants, which may involve the P2X7 receptor.

AB  - Gentian (Gentiana lutea L., Gentianaceae) root extract (GRE) is used for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. However, its bioactive potential is limited in conventional forms due to the low bioavailability and short elimination half-life of the dominant bioactive compound, gentiopicroside. The aim of study was to encapsulate GRE in the lipid-based gastroretentive delivery system that could provide high yield and encapsulation efficiency, as well as the biphasic release of gentiopicroside from the tablets obtained by direct compression. Solid lipid microparticles (SLM) loaded with GRE were prepared by freeze-drying double (W/O/W) emulsions, which were obtained by a multiple emulsion–melt dispersion technique, with GRE as the inner water phase, Gelucire® 39/01 or 43/01, as lipid components, with or without the addition of porous silica (Sylysia® 350) in the outer water phase. Formulated SLM powders were examined by SEM and mercury intrusion porosimetry, as well as by determination of yield, encapsulation efficiency, and flow properties. Furthermore, in vitro dissolution of gentiopicroside, the size of the dispersed systems, mechanical properties, and mucoadhesion of tablets obtained by direct compression were investigated. The results have revealed that SLM with the macroporous structure were formulated, and, consequently, the powders floated immediately in the acidic medium. Formulation with porous silica (Sylysia® 350) and Gelucire® 43/01 as a solid lipid was characterized with the high yield end encapsulation efficiency. Furthermore, the mucoadhesive properties of tablets obtained by direct compression of that formulation, as well as the biphasic release of gentiopicroside, presence of nanoassociates in dissolution medium, and optimal mechanical properties indicated that a promising lipid-based gastroretentive system for GRE was developed.

AB  - Chokeberries (Aronia melanocarpa (Michx.) Elliot have recently become one of the most popular and widely used berry fruits, and there are numerous studies dealing with the investigation of their chemical composition and biological activities. Unlike berries, chokeberry leaves were far less investigated. Therefore, the aim of this study was to conduct a bioactivity-based analysis of chokeberry leaves collected after berries were harvested. Chemical analysis of hydroethanolic chokeberry extract and its ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and water fractions was performed. Antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and antineurodegenerative activities of the obtained samples were assessed by in vitro tests. The highest total phenolics content was found in n-butanol fraction (221.5 mg gallic acid equivalents/g dw). Fourteen compounds (six phenolic acids and eight flavonoids) were identified in the samples. Caffeoylquinic acid derivatives and quercetin glycosides were dominant phenolic compounds. The highest content of phenolic acids, as well as flavonoids, was recorded in n-butanol fraction (80.75 mg/g dw and 47.79 mg/g dw, respectively). This fraction was the most active in 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays. Also, the n-butanol fraction was the most effective inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and tyrosinase (TYR) enzymes. All samples showed a better inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase enzyme with inhibition concentrations IC50 = 4.21 - 9.22 μg/mL, than α-amylase enzymes (IC50 = 14.36 - 88.61 μg/mL). Pearson’s correlation between the content of individual phenolics and the results of biological tests was performed. Thus, hyperoside and isoquercitrin showed a significant correlation with DPPH and ABTS tests, caffeoylquinic acids with FRAP test, quercetin 3-O-vicianoside with β-carotene assay, hyperoside and isoquercitrin with α-amylase inhibition activity, and isorhamnetin 3-O-rutinoside with α-glucosidase inhibition assay. Considering the obtained results, chokeberry leaves represent a valuable natural source of phenolic compounds with promising potential for the development of new products with beneficial effects on human health.

AB  - Grape pomace (grape skin, seeds, and stems) represents a valuable source of bioactive compounds, thus the interest in making use of these wine waste products is increasing. Prokupac is an autochthonous Serbian variety of black grape with a long tradition in production of red wine. Identification of the superficial polyphenolic compounds by LC/MS revealed presence of 19 compounds including hydroxybenzoic acid derivatives, ellagic acid derivatives, flavan‐3‐ol monomers, proanthocyanidins, and flavonols. Catechin and epicatechin together with proanthocyanidins were the most abundant compounds and the highest content of phenolic compounds was determined in Prokupac clones 43/1, 40/1, and 40/2. Grape seed oil consisted of dominantly UFA (87–95 %) where methyl linoleate was the most abundant in all samples (69–81 %). Palmitic (3–8 %) and stearic acid (2–4 %) methyl esters were dominant SFA. Prokupac clone 43/3 was the most abundant in UFA (95 %) with the lowest percentage of SFA (5 %), while clones 41/1 and 43/5 had the lowest percentage of UFA (87 %) and the highest content of SFA (13 %). Favorable chemical profile of Prokupac clone seeds implicates its potential to be used as a raw material in further processing and possibility to be included as one of the quality parameters in further selection of the most interesting Prokupac clone.

AB  - In recent years great attention was paid to biological control, the application of natural products in order to protect crops and medicinal plants against contamination with phytopathogenic and saprophytic fungi. Essential oils have been evaluated as a potentially safe replacement for chemicals used for that purpose. In this regard, antifungal potential of six essential oils was examined coupled with determination of the complete qualitative and quantitative chemical composition by GC-FID and GC-MS analysis. While essential oils of rosemary, sage, Spanish sage and black pepper were exclusively composed of monoterpenes, vetiver essential oil was entirely composed of sesquiterpenes. In essential oil of cinnamon dominates (E)-cinnamaldehyde. Applying the in vitro microdilution method, it was found that all essential oils were active in inhibiting the growth of all tested 21 pre- and post-harvest phytopathogenic and saprophytic fungi. MIC and MFC ranged from 1.2 mg ml-1 up to 22.6 mg ml-1 according to the test oil. Rosemary oil showed the best antifungal potential, followed by black pepper and cinnamon oil. Sage and Spanish sage oils also exhibited significant antifungal potential. Vetiver oil demonstrated the lowest antifungal activity. Essential oils that showed considerable antifungal potential are good candidates for further examination of their use in preventing and/or protection of medicinal plants, their seeds and dried drugs against fungal infections, both in the field and in warehouses.

AB  - The biological value of berries relies on their nutritive and non-nutritive constituents. They are good sources of vitamins (vitamin A, C, E, folic acid), pro-vitamins and related compounds (carotene and lutein), minerals (calcium and selenium) and phytosterols, but the proposed health benefit is usually connected with phenolics as the main biologically active compound of berries. Berry phenolics include anthocyanins, flavonols, flavanols, condensed tannins (proanthocyanidins), hidrolyzable tannins (ellagitannins and gallotannins) and phenolic acids. Berries are recognized as the best dietary sources of anthocyanins. Different berries are distinguished by the presence of different classes of phenolics or compounds within the same class, their content and chemical structure (substituents, glycosylation, conjugation), potentially influencing their physiological properties and health effects. Analytical assessment of the phytochemical content of berries, the effects of storage and processing and putative interaction with other dietary compounds is essential for evaluation of their health benefit. It is of great importance to emphasize the biodiversity in the context of different phytochemical content in wild versus cultivated species, different varieties of the same species, or influenced by different cultivating conditions. Beneficial effects of berries consumption in health promotion and prevention of chronic diseases, such as cancer or cardiovascular diseases are shown in numerous epidemiological studies. In in vitro and animals studies berry fruits, their extracts and isolated compounds showed antioxidant, anticancer, antidiabetic, hypoholesterolemic, anti-inflammatory, vasoprotective, cardioprotecive, antiplatelet, antitrombotic or antimicrobial effects. Some of these effects are also shown in clinical trials in humans. Phenolic compounds of berries and their extracts have strong antioxidant potential that is often used to explain their health-promoting properties. Recent studies postulated that their antioxidant potential, as a basic mechanism of biological activity, is compromised by their low bioavailability. Consequently further research in this area is targeted towards other mechanisms of action, the evaluation of main sites of action and further elucidation of potential of berry phenolic compounds as antioxidants, based on their structure or metabolism, both in vitro and within the human body.

AB  - Oil extracts of Hypericum perforatum L. (Oleum Hyperici) were prepared in three different ways according to the prescriptions from traditional medicine. Variability of constituents and biological activity were evaluated in the obtained oil extracts. The carrageenan-induced rat paw edema test has been used for screening the antiinflammatory activity, while the indomethacin-induced rat gastric mucosa damage test was used for evaluation of gastroprotective activity. All examined oil extracts possessed antiinflammatory and gastroprotective activity. Among them, the oil extract prepared by maceration with 96% ethanol, followed by extraction with sunflower oil by heating on a water bath (extract 2), in a dose of 1.25 mL/kg p.o., exhibited the highest antiinflammatory effect (95.24 ± 11.66%) and gastroprotective activity (gastric damage score of 0.21 ± 0.12). The same oil extract had the highest content of quercetin and I3,II8-biapigenin (129 ± 9 μg/mL and 52 ± 4 μg/mL, respectively). Quercetin and I3,II8-biapigenin exhibited antiinflammatory activity similar to those of indomethacin as well as significant gastroprotective activity. The results provide evidence for the usage of Oleum Hyperici as an anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective agent, which has been based previously only on ethnopharmacological claims. Copyright

The carrageenan-induced rat paw edema test has been used for screening the antiinflammatory activity, while the indomethacin-induced rat gastric mucosa damage test was used for evaluation of gastroprotective activity. All examined oil extracts possessed antiinflammatory and gastroprotective activity. Among them, the oil extract prepared by maceration with 96% ethanol, followed by extraction with sunflower oil by heating on a water bath (extract 2), in a dose of 1.25 mL/kg p.o., exhibited the highest antiinflammatory effect (95.24 ± 11.66%) and gastroprotective activity (gastric damage score of 0.21 ± 0.12). The same oil extract had the highest content of quercetin and I3,II8-biapigenin (129 ± 9 μg/mL and 52 ± 4 μg/mL, respectively). Quercetin and I3,II8-biapigenin exhibited antiinflammatory activity similar to those of indomethacin as well as significant gastroprotective activity. The results provide evidence for the usage of Oleum Hyperici as an anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective agent, which has been based previously only on ethnopharmacological claims. Copyright",

AB  - Aerial parts of Physocaulis nodosus (L.) W.D.J.Koch. (Apiaceae) collected on Hajla mountain possessed an essential oil in 0.62% yield (expressed in g per 100 g of dried plant material). The oil was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Among 21 compounds 16 were identified, representing 93.0% of total oil composition. Dominant compounds were sabinene (36.4%), limonene (27.7%) and β-pinene (9.8%). The oil possessed a limited antibacterial activity against Micrococcus luteus, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis.

AB  - Rutin (1, main constituent) and two flavone C-glycosides, vitexin (2) and vitexin 2''-O-α-rhamnopyranoside (3) were isolated from the aerial parts of Onobrychis montana subsp. scardica. They were identified by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy (procedure with shift reagents), and high resolution ESI-MS. A relatively high content of 1 (5.27 mg/g of dry plant material), measured by HPLC, indicated O. montana subsp. scardica as a new natural source of this biologically active compound. The isolated flavonoid compounds might be of value as chemotaxonomic markers.
AB  - Iz nadzemnih delova Onobrychis montana subsp. scardica izolovani su rutin (1, glavni sastojak) i dva flavonoidna S-glikozida, viteksin (2) i njegov 2''-O-α-ramnopiranozid (3). Njihova struktura je određena primenom 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR i UV spektroskopije (procedura sa reagensima UV-pomeranja) i masene spektrometrije visokog razlaganja (HR-ESI-MS). Relativno visok sadržaj rutina (5.27 mg/g suvog materijala) određen pomoću tečne hromatografije (HPLC), ukazuje na O. montana subsp. scardica kao nov prirodni izvor ovog biološki aktivnog jedinjenja. Izolovana jedinjenja mogu biti i od vrednosti kao hemotaksonomski markeri.
