    Abstract Three new prenylflavonoids, 3-hydroxy-5′-methoxy-licoflavanone (12), 3′-hydroxy-5′-methoxy-glabranin (13), and 5′-methoxy-lespedezaflavanone C (17) were isolated for the first time from propolis collected from Chiang Mai in northern Thailand. The structures of the new compounds were determined by MS and NMR spectroscopy. Seventeen other known compounds, including 4′-methyl-8-prenyltaxifolin (1), 6-prenyleriodictyol (2), abyssinone V (3), munduleaflavanone B (4), euchrestaflavanone A (5), cathayanon H (6), licoflavanone (7), 8-prenylnaringenin (8), exiguaflavanone K (9), flowerine (10), 8-dimethylallyltaxifolin (11), isolicoflavonol (14), (S)-2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-5,7-dihydroxy-8-(3-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)chroman-4-one (15), lespedezaflavanone C (16), gancaonin E (18), 5,3′-dihydroxyisobavachin-7-O-methyl ether (19), and carphorin B (20) were also identified based on their MS, NMR, and electronic circular dichroism spectra.

    Abstract In this study, ethyl acetate-soluble parts of hot-water extracts from roasted coffee beans were found to demonstrate potent xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibition. The XO inhibitory activities and chlorogenic lactone contents (chlorogenic lactones have previously been identified as XO inhibitors in roast coffee) were measured for ethyl acetate-soluble parts prepared from coffee beans roasted to three different degrees. Although chlorogenic lactone contents decreased with higher degrees of roasting, the XO inhibitory activity did not decrease. These data led us to investigate new potent inhibitors present in these ethyl acetate-soluble extracts. Repeated assay-guided purifications afforded a highly potent XO inhibitor, which was eluted before chlorogenic lactones via medium-pressure chromatography using an octadecylsilica gel column. The obtained inhibitor was identified as pyrogallol (1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene), which had an IC

Repeated assay-guided purifications afforded a highly potent XO inhibitor, which was eluted before chlorogenic lactones via medium-pressure chromatography using an octadecylsilica gel column. The obtained inhibitor was identified as pyrogallol (1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene), which had an IC50 of 0.73 μmol L–1, much stronger than that of other related polyphenolic compounds. Quantitative analysis of pyrogallol and chlorogenic lactones revealed that pyrogallol (at concentrations of 33.9 ± 4.2 nmol mL–1 in light roast coffee and 39.4 ± 3.9 nmol mL–1 in dark roast coffee) was the main XO inhibitor in hot-water extracts of roasted coffee beans (i.e., drinking coffee).

    Abstract Dedicator of cytokinesis 3 (DOCK3) is an atypical member of the guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and plays important roles in neurite outgrowth. DOCK3 forms a complex with Engulfment and cell motility protein 1 (Elmo1) and effectively activates Rac1 and actin dynamics. In this study, we screened 462,169 low-molecular-weight compounds and identified the hit compounds that stimulate the interaction between DOCK3 and Elmo1, and neurite outgrowth in vitro. Some of the derivatives from the hit compound stimulated neuroprotection and axon regeneration in a mouse model of optic nerve injury. Our findings suggest that the low-molecular-weight DOCK3 activators could be a potential therapeutic candidate for treating axonal injury and neurodegenerative diseases including glaucoma.

    Abstract Obesity is a major risk factor for various chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer; hence, there is an urgent need for an effective strategy to prevent this disorder. Currently, the anti-obesity effects of food ingredients are drawing attention. Therefore, we focused on carob, which has high antioxidant capacity and various physiological effects, and examined its anti-obesity effect. Carob is cultivated in the Mediterranean region, and its roasted powder is used as a substitute for cocoa powder. We investigated the effect of carob pod polyphenols (CPPs) on suppressing increases in adipose tissue weight and adipocyte hypertrophy in high fat diet-induced obesity model mice, and the mechanism by which CPPs inhibit the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes into adipocytes in vitro. In an in vivo experimental system, we revealed that CPPs significantly suppressed the increase in adipose tissue weight and adipocyte hypertrophy. Moreover, in an in vitro experimental system, CPPs acted at the early stage of differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and suppressed cell proliferation because of differentiation induction. They also suppressed the expression of transcription factors involved in adipocyte differentiation, thereby reducing triacylglycerol synthesis ability and triglycerol (TG) accumulation. Notably, CPPs regulated CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP)β, which is expressed at the early stage of differentiation, at the posttranscriptional level. These results demonstrate that CPPs suppress the differentiation of adipocytes through the posttranscriptional regulation of C/EBPβ and may serve as an effective anti-obesity compound.

    Abstract Reaction products from the peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of polyphenols in the presence of cysteine showed a potent activity for reducing metmyogolobin (MetMb) to bright-colored oxymyogolobin (MbO2). High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) purification of the reaction products from catechin, chlorogenic acid, dihydrocaffeic acid, hydroxytyrosol, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, and rosmarinic acid afforded corresponding S-cysteinyl compounds, the structures of which were determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS). The isolated cysteinyl polyphenols showed a concentration-dependent reducing activity for MetMb to MbO2 for the initial 1 h. However, after 1 h, some of them decreased the amount of MbO2 produced. The effect of the number of cysteinyl sulfur substitutions in polyphenols on both MetMb reduction and MbO2 maintenance was examined using hydroxytyrosols with different numbers of cysteine substitutions; these hydroxytyrosols were synthesized from hydroxytyrosol and an N-acetylcysteine methyl ester. The hydroxytyrosol derivative substituted with two N-acetylcysteine esters exhibited the most effective reducing activity without any effect on MbO2.

In addition, five known compounds, glyasperin A, broussoflavonol F, (2 S)-5,7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxy-8-prenylflavanone, (1' S)-2- trans,4- trans-abscisic acid, and (1' S)-2- cis,4- trans-abscisic acid, were identified. The structures of the new compounds were determined by a combination of methods that included mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. The absolute configuration of sulawesin A (2), a new podophyllotoxin derivative, was determined by X-ray crystallography. The absolute configuration of sulawesin B (3) was also determined by the ECD calculation. 4-(4'-Hydroxy-3'-methoxyphenyl)-3,5,7-trihydroxycoumarin (1) and sulawesin A (2) were examined for xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity; 1 exhibited XO inhibitory activity, with an IC

    Abstract In this study, the mechanism of the xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity of pyrogallol, the main inhibitor found in roasted coffee, was investigated. Pyrogallol was unstable and readily converted to purpurogallin in a pH 7.4 solution, a physiological model of human body fluids. The XO inhibitory activity of the produced purpurogallin was higher than that of pyrogallol, as evidenced by comparing their IC
