In Silico Prediction of Selected Bioactive Compounds Present in Alpinia elegans (C.Presl) K.Schum Seed Oil as Potential Drug Candidates Against Human Cancer Cell Lines.
    Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2023, Aug-01, Volume: 24, Issue:8

    Alpinia elegans (Zingiberaceae) is a Philippine endemic plant reported to have various folkloric uses. The seed oil of A. elegans has been shown to contain a majority of the following bioactive compounds: D-limonene, α-pinene, and caryophyllene oxide. The study sought to determine if the bioactive compounds found in A. elegans seed oil would be a good natural, inexpensive, and less-detrimental alternative for cancer treatment.. The study utilized in silico (Way2Drug predictive services, SwissADME, AutoDock 4) experiment to examine the aforementioned compounds as viable therapeutic candidates against human cancer cell lines.. Results determined that the compounds D-limonene, α-pinene, and caryophyllene oxide were most potent against thyroid gland carcinoma (8505C) cells, brain glaucoma (Hs 683) cells, and promyeloblast leukemia (HL-60) cells, respectively. Additionally, D-limonene was the only compound to show arrhythmia as an adverse effect. Predictions showed that the compounds could inhibit cellular growth factors and serine/threonine-protein kinase activity. The compounds generated a bioavailability score of 0.55 and exhibited blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetration. D-limonene, α-pinene, and caryophyllene oxide had binding energy of -4.59, -5.43, and -6.92, respectively.. The binding energy indicated that the ligands could securely dock to the receptors, thus suggesting that interaction between the ligands and receptors was stable. Results have shown that the compounds are promising candidates against human cancer cell lines by inhibiting cell proliferation and inducing apoptosis.

Chemical composition of the essential oil of Moluccella spinosa L. (Lamiaceae) collected wild in Sicily and its activity on microorganisms affecting historical textiles.
    Natural product research, 2015, Volume: 29, Issue:13

    In this study the chemical composition of the essential oil from aerial parts of Moluccella spinosa L. collected in Sicily was evaluated by GC and GC-MS. The main components of M. spinosa L. were α-pinene (26.6%), caryophyllene oxide (16.8%) and β-caryophyllene (8.6%). A comparison with other studied oils of genus Moluccella is made. Antibacterial and antifungal activities against some microorganisms infesting historical textiles were also determined.

The case of Hypericum rochelii Griseb. & Schenk and Hypericum umbellatum A. Kern. essential oils: chemical composition and antimicrobial activity.
    Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, 2013, Apr-15, Volume: 77

    The chemical composition and antimicrobial activity studies on the essential oils of Hypericum rochelii Griseb. & Schenk and Hypericum umbellatum A. Kern. have been carried out for the first time. Seventy-nine compounds were identified in the essential oil of H. rochelii with n-nonane (24.7%), β-pinene (22.4%), germacrene D (7.5%), n-undecane (6.8%) and α-pinene (5.8%) as main constituents. One hundred and twenty-six compounds were identified in H. umbellatum essential oil with germacrene D (6.1%), (E)-nerolidol (4.4%), n-nonane (4.0%), (E)-caryophyllene (3.0%) and caryophyllene oxide (3.0%) as the most abundant components. Both oils were characterized by the presence of many components which could have numerous applications in food, pharmaceutical and perfume industries. Taxa studied herein belong to the section Drosocarpium Spach, and their intrasectional placement based on the essential oil profiles was discussed. The oils were tested in a broth microdilution assay against five bacterial and two fungal strains and found to have mainly moderate antimicrobial effects.

Chemical composition of the essential oils of the flowers, leaves and stems of two senecio polyanthemoides Sch. Bip. samples from South Africa.
    Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2009, Jun-09, Volume: 14, Issue:6

    The essential oils of the flowers, leaves and stems of Senecio polyanthemoides Sch. Bip. Samples collected from two different localities within the city of uMhlathuze, KwaZulu-Natal Province (South Africa) were isolated by hydrodistillation and analyzed using GC and GC/MS. Twenty-six constituents were identified, representing an average of 86.0 - 99.6% of the total oil composition. The chemical profile reveals the dominance of monoterpenoid compounds, although some quantitative variance was noticed. The main constituents of the oils were limonene (3.1 - 43.0%), p-cymene (4.9-36.3%), beta-selinene (1.3-32.7%), alpha-pinene (1.8-21.4%), beta-pinene (7.6-16.5%) and 1,8-cineole (9.3-11.4%), caryophyllene oxide (4.1-13.4%) and humulene epoxide II (8.6-10.3%).
