Umbelliprenin as a novel component of the phytochemical pool from Artemisia spp.
    Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, 2020, May-30, Volume: 184

    Plants belonging to Artemisia spp. are known to biosynthesize a wide panel of 3,3-dimethylallyl- and sesquiterpenyl- substituted coumarins. In this short communication we applied a novel extraction methodology based on the use of subcritical butane under a counter-current mode to further characterize the presence of selected biologically active oxyprenylated phenylpropanoids, namely coumarins and ferulic acid derivatives, in extracts deriving from aerial parts of Artemisia vulgaris L. (commonly known as "common mugwort") (Asteraceae). In the mean time, we assessed the efficiency of the above mentioned extractive methodology with other routes like maceration and ultrasounds and microwaves-based methods using absolute EtOH as the solvents. UHPLC analysis coupled to UV/Vis detection revealed that, among the 5 pure chemical standard assayed, only umbelliprenin (7-farnesyloxycoumarin) was recorded, while boropinic acid, 4'-geranyloxyferulic acid, 7-isopentenyloxycoumarin, and auraptene were not detected. The best extractive yield (0.18 %) was obtained after extaction with subcritical butane. The presence of umbelliprenin in Artemisia plant species has been reported herein for the first time. This coumarin may represent the biosynthetic precursors of sesquiterpenyloxycoumarins with more complex structures typically found in this genus.

A green deep eutectic solvent dispersive liquid-liquid micro-extraction (DES-DLLME) for the UHPLC-PDA determination of oxyprenylated phenylpropanoids in olive, soy, peanuts, corn, and sunflower oil.
    Food chemistry, 2018, Apr-15, Volume: 245

    A green dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) using deep eutectic solvent (DES) as the extracting solvent has been developed and applied for the simultaneous quantification of ferulic acid, umbelliferone, boropinic acid, 7-isopentenyloxycoumarin, 4'-geranyloxyferulic acid (GOFA), and auraptene in some vegetable oils using ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) with photodiode array detection (PDA). All parameters in the extraction step, including selection and loading of both extracting and dispersing solvents, amount of both extractant and disperser solvent were investigated and optimized. PhAA/TMG DES achieved higher recovery and enrichment factor compared to other DESs. The validated method showed good linearity with correlation coefficients, r

Oxyprenylated Phenylpropanoids Bind to MT1 Melatonin Receptors and Inhibit Breast Cancer Cell Proliferation and Migration.
    Journal of natural products, 2017, 12-22, Volume: 80, Issue:12

    Oxyprenylated compounds (i.e., ferulic acid and coumarin derivatives) demonstrate neuroprotection and anticancer properties as reported in previous studies. We have tested the affinity of oxyprenylated ferulic acid (1-4) and umbelliferone derivatives (5-11) to melatonin receptors as well as their antiproliferation and antimigratory properties against breast cancer (BC) cell lines. All the compounds except for ferulic acid, boropinic acid, and umbelliferone had binding affinities to melatonin receptors in the nM to μM range, and both auraptene and umbellinprenin reduced BC cell proliferation and migration in phenotypically diverse BC including triple negative.

The interaction of auraptene and other oxyprenylated phenylpropanoids with glucose transporter type 4.
    Phytomedicine : international journal of phytotherapy and phytopharmacology, 2017, Aug-15, Volume: 32

    Glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) is firmly established to play a pivotal role in glucose metabolism and in particular in modulating the insulin-stimulated glucose transport in several tissues, such as skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. Stimulation of GLUT4 by insulin results in its translocation to the plasma membrane, activation of several kinases, and finally in a large glucose influx into cells.. In this study we investigated the modulating properties of four biologically active oxyprenylated ferulic acid and umbelliferone derivatives and of their unprenylated parent compounds on GLUT-4 mediated glucose uptake and translocation.. Oxyprenylated phenylpropanoids have been synthesized in high yields and purity by already reported methodologies. All the synthesized chemicals were tested for their capacity to modulate GLUT4 mediated glucose uptake and GLUT4 translocation in L6 rat skeletal myoblasts in the concentration range 0.1 - 10 µM. Insulin (0.1 µM) was used as positive control. Western blot analysis was employed to assess if GLUT4 translocation occurred prior to increase of glucose uptake. Statistical analyses were carried out by the Dunnett multiple comparison test.. 4'-Geranyloxyferulic acid (GOFA), 7-isopentenyloxycoumarin, and auraptene (7-geranyloxycoumarin) increased glucose uptake in a concentration-dependent manner, and significant increases were observed at 0.1 µM for GOFA, and 10 µM for 7-isopentenyloxycoumarin, and auraptene. These products also were able to significantly promote the translocation of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane of L6 myotubes. After treatment with compounds for 15 min, the incorporated amounts of GOFA, 7-isopentenyloxucoumarin, and auraptene were 0.15, 0.32, and 1.77 nmols/60-mm culture dish, respectively. A sample of raw Italian propolis, found to be rich in GOFA and auraptene, was also seen to mimic insulin-effect in the concentration range 0.01 - 1.0 mg/ml.. Among the compounds assayed, auraptene showed to possess potentialities to be a potent activator of both translocation of GLUT4 and glucose influx into skeletal muscle cells with the highest bioavailability among effective compounds. Its capacity to modulate sugar metabolism, coupled to its presence in edible Citrus fruits, can be regarded as an additional reason to account for the already known stimulating properties of some vegetable (e.g. bitter orange).

Comparison of different extraction methods and HPLC quantification of prenylated and unprenylated phenylpropanoids in raw Italian propolis.
    Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, 2016, Sep-10, Volume: 129

    In this paper the presence of selected prenylated and unprenylated phenylpropanoids, namely ferulic acid 1, boropinic acid 2, 4'-geranyloxyferulic acid 3, umbelliferone 4, 7-isopentenyloxycoumarin 5, and auraptene 6, have been determined in Italian raw propolis after having been extracted with different methodologies. An aqueous solution of β-cyclodextrin was the best extraction method for ferulic acid 1, treatment with indifferently EtOH or aqueous β-cyclodextrin were the most effective one for umbelliferone 4, boropinic acid 2 gave the best yields either with H2O/β-cyclodextrin or olive oil treatment or in biphasic systems, maceration with biphasic mixtures of aqueous β-cyclodextrin and olive oil was seen to be the most effective procedure for 7-isopentenyloxycoumarin 5, the only method providing significant quantities of 4'-geranyloxyferulic acid 3 was the maceration of raw propolis with olive oil, and finally auraptene 4 was best extracted with absolute EtOH. "Classic" maceration in general performed better than ultrasound-assisted one.
