Isolation and characterization of wound-induced compounds from the leaves of Citrus hassaku.
    Journal of bioscience and bioengineering, 2016, Volume: 122, Issue:2

    Citrus plants are world widely cultivated as horticultural tree crops, and nowadays their pharmacological activities have been well studied. Since research of defense responses in citrus plants have been mainly focused on the post-harvested fruits because of their commercial importance, defense mechanisms during their developmental stages have not been well understood. In the present study, two wound-induced compounds were isolated from leaves of Citrus hassaku, and their structures were elucidated by high-resolution electron spray ionization mass spectra (HRESIMS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses. One of these compounds was identified as a known flavanone, hesperetin. The other was characterized as a novel furofuran lignan, and was named 'biscitrusnin-A'. Their antimicrobial activities were also evaluated.

Pharmacokinetic comparison in rats of six bioactive compounds between Da-Cheng-Qi decoction and its parent herbal medicines.
    Natural product communications, 2010, Volume: 5, Issue:5

    Da-Cheng-Qi decoction (DCQD) is a purgative compound prescription used in China and East Asia. In this paper, pharmacokinetic differences of six major active components (rhein, emodin, aloe-emodin, magnolol, naringenin and hesperetin) between DCQD and its three constitutional herbal medicines, i.e., Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Cortex Magnoliae officinalis and Fructus Aurantii Immaturus were investigated in rats after oral administration. Plasma samples were analyzed for the quantification of the six active components using validated LC-MS/MS methods. Unpaired Student's t-test was used for statistical comparison. Significant differences (p < 0.05) in the main pharmacokinetic parameters for rhein, emodin, aloeemodin, magnolol, naringenin and hesperetin were found between DCQD and the decoction of its constitutional single herbal medicines, which demonstrated the presence of drug-drug interactions between these constitutional raw materials of DCQD occurring either in the procedure of decoction or during ADME process.
