Abstract:
Selaginella, a genus of Pteridophyte, is known as an herb that contains of several bioactive compounds. The growth and bioactive compounds of plant were affected by plant environment, such as media types. The objective of the research was to obtain an appropriate plant media for growing S. plana dan S. willdenovii, and its effect on the content of bioactive compounds. The experiment consisted of two factors, plant growth media and the species of Selaginella. The first factor consisted of eight plant growth media, i.e.: soil, rice husk, rice husk : soil = 1:1 (v/v), burned rice husk, soil : burned rice huks = 1:1 (v/v), burned rice husk : rice husk = 1:1 (v/v), burned rice husk : rice husk = 3:1 (v/v), and burned rice husk : rice husk = 1:3 (v/v). The second factor was two spesies of Selaginella, i.e.: S. plana and S. willdenovii. Ethanol extract of Selaginella was qualitatively analyzed for flavonoid, tannin, and saponin content. The result showed that both fresh and dry weights of Selaginella were influenced by the type of plant media, Selaginella species, and their interactions. S. plana and S. willdenovii grew best on medium containing soil: burned rice = 1:1 (v/v). The highest flavonoid content of S. plana and S. willdenovii was also obtained from the plant grown on the same media. Comparing to the bioactive compound content of natural plant, saponin content of S. plana and S. willdenovii was increased by the treatment of plant media. The treatment also increased tannin content of S. plana, but not of S. willdenovii.

Abstract:
Is there any relationship between plant nutrition and human health? The overall response to this question is very positive, and a strong relationship between the nutrition of plants and humans has been reported in the literature. The nutritional status of edible plants consumed by humans can have a negative or positive impact on human health. This review was designed to assess the importance of plant bioactive compounds for human health under the umbrella of sustainable agriculture. With respect to the first research question, it was found that plant bioactives (e.g., alkaloids, carotenoids, flavonoids, phenolics, and terpenoids) have a crucial role in human health due to their therapeutic benefits, and their potentiality depends on several factors, including botanical, environmental, and clinical attributes. Plant bioactives could be produced using plant tissue culture tools (as a kind of agro-biotechnological method), especially in cases of underexploited or endangered plants. Bioactive production of plants depends on many factors, especially climate change (heat stress, drought, UV radiation, ozone, and elevated CO2), environmental pollution, and problematic soils (degraded, saline/alkaline, waterlogged, etc.). Under the previously mentioned stresses, in reviewing the literature, a positive or negative association was found depending on the kinds of stress or bioactives and their attributes. The observed correlation between plant bioactives and stress (or growth factors) might explain the importance of these bioactives for human health. Their accumulation in stressed plants can increase their tolerance to stress and their therapeutic roles. The results of this study are in keeping with previous observational studies, which confirmed that the human nutrition might start from edible plants and their bioactive contents, which are consumed by humans. This review is the first report that analyzes this previously observed relationship using pictorial presentation.

Abstract:
Bioactive plant compounds and extracts are of special interest for the development of pharmaceuticals. Here, we describe the screening of more than 1100 aqueous plant extracts and synthetic reference compounds for their ability to stimulate or inhibit insulin secretion. To quantify insulin secretion in living MIN6 β cells, an insulin–Gaussia luciferase (Ins-GLuc) biosensor was used. Positive hits included extracts from Quillaja saponaria, Anagallis arvensis, Sapindus mukorossi, Gleditsia sinensis and Albizia julibrissin, which were identified as insulin secretion stimulators, whereas extracts of Acacia catechu, Myrtus communis, Actaea spicata L., Vaccinium vitis-idaea and Calendula officinalis were found to exhibit insulin secretion inhibitory properties. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) were used to characterize several bioactive compounds in the selected plant extracts, and these bioactives were retested for their insulin-modulating properties. Overall, we identified several plant extracts and some of their bioactive compounds that may be used to manipulate pancreatic insulin secretion.

Abstract:
The present study aimed to screen plants for bioactive compounds with potential antibacterial activities. In our efforts to evaluate plants from Borneo, we isolated and elucidated the structures of four natural products from the bioactive fraction of a chloroform extract of Goniothalamus longistipetes using various chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. The bioactive compounds were identified as a known styryllactone, (+)-altholactone ((2S,3R,3aS,7aS)-3-hydroxy-2-phenyl-2,3,3a,7a-tetrahydrobenzo-5(4H)-5-one) (1), a new styryllactone, (2S,3R,3aS,7aS)-3-hydroxy-2-phenyl-2,3,3a,7a-tetrahydrobenzo-5(4H)-5-one) (2) as well as a new alkaloid, 2,6-dimethoxyisonicotinaldehyde (3) and a new alkenyl-5-hydroxyl-phenyl benzoic acid (4). 1 and 4 showed broad-spectrum anti-bacterial activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria as well as acid-fast model selected for this study. Compound 2 only demonstrated activities against Gram-positive bacteria whilst 3 displayed selective inhibitory activities against Gram-positive bacterial strains. Additionally, their mechanisms of anti-bacterial action were also investigated. Using Mycobacterium smegmatis as a fast-growing model of tubercle bacilli, compounds 1, 2 and 4 demonstrated inhibitory activities against whole-cell drug efflux and biofilm formation; two key intrinsic mechanisms of antibiotic resistance. Interestingly, the amphiphilic compound 4 exhibited inhibitory activity against the conjugation of plasmid pKM101 in Escherichia coli using a plate conjugation assay. Plasmid conjugation is a mechanism by which Gram-positive and Gram-negative-bacteria acquire drug resistance and virulence. These results indicated that bioactive compounds isolated from Goniothalamus longistipetes can be potential candidates as ‘hits’ for further optimisation.

Abstract:
Medicinal plants play an important role in the development of potent therapeutic agents. Plant based drugs provide outstanding contribution to modern therapeutics as a source of many valuable secondary metabolites which serves as plant defense mechanisms against predator such as microorganism, insects and herbivores which have been proved to be potentially active compounds. Euphorbia Thymifolia Linn (E. Thymifolia) is commonly known as ‘duddi’ or in Sanskrit means Laghu didhika or Raktavindaka. It belongs to the family Euphorbiceae. This plant is bitter, acrid, sweet and used as thermogenic, laxative and diuretic. This plant is widely used in the ayurveda to cure many diseases like vitiated condition of constipation, helminthiasis and ringworm skin diseases and leprosy. The aim of the present study is to examine E.Thymifolia Linn whole plant for phytochemical profile, Isolation and Identification of bioactive compounds. Qualitative analysis of various phytochemical constituents was determined by the well-known test protocol available in the literature. Isolation and characterization of bioactive compound from methanolic extract of E. Thymifolia has been conducted. The bioactive compound from methanolic extracts was isolated by several processes, such as TLC, column chromatography and preparative TLC. The isolated bioactive compound is identified by UV-Vis spectrophotometer, FT-IR, 1H, 13C-NMR and Mass. The obtained compound is continued to the preparative TLC using chloroform: methanol (50:50, v/v) as eluent. The UV-Vis spectrum showed one peaks of maximum absorbance at 312.8nm. Then, the FT-IR spectrum showed several peaks that confirmed the presence of functional group of derivative of compound, i.e. 669.05, 928.58, 1070.85, 1215.51 and 1710.07cm-1. 1H and 13C-NMR spectrum confirmed the bioactive compound present in plant. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, phenols, flavonoids, tannins. The findings of the present study will be helpful to phytochemists, pharmacologists and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract:
Thesis (MTech (Chemistry))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2016.
In Africa, herbal medicines are often used as primary treatments for a variety of ailments and diseases including HIV/AIDS and for HIV-related problems. In general, traditional medicines are not well researched scientifically in controlled studies, and are poorly regulated. Since the pharmacological effectiveness of natural products is affected by several native and foreign factors, studies on the variations of chemical composition and biological activity of these medicines are necessary. The processes of investigating plants to identify chemical substances are of great interest to natural product researchers because there is a need to discover new drugs for treating old and new diseases. These facts underscore an urgent need to develop new anti HIV and AIDS drugs with fewer or no side effects. Research into drug discovery and development using natural products is increasingly becoming better established. Marine organisms as a source of natural products delivered numerous novel compounds with multiple pharmacological properties. Natural products give endless opportunities for discovering novel compounds that can be used as drugs or backbones of drug leads. Manayi is a natural product that has been used to treat and manage people with HIV, but no scientific studies have been done to prove its efficacy on the HIV under controlled conditions. For the purposes of this study, cooked and uncooked Manayi product was evaluated for its efficacy on HIV in vitro. Manayi samples were collected in East London, Eastern Cape and sequentially extracted with hexane, chloroform, dichloromethane, butanol, methanol, and water as a series of increasingly polar solvents for its bioactive chemical constituents.

Abstract:
The present study describes the bioactivity guided isolation and structural elucidation of novel anticancer compounds from the Bangladeshi medicinal plant Blumera lacera. At the outset nineteen Bangladeshi medicinal plants were selected and collected from different parts of Bangladesh. Plants underwent preliminary cytotoxicity screening based on their traditional medicinal uses, limited previous research on them, and their availability. The selected plants were extracted with methanol and screened for their cytotoxic potential using the MTT assay against two healthy cell lines (mouse fibroblast (NIH3T3), a healthy monkey kidney (VERO)) and four cancer cell lines namely, gastric (AGS), colon (HT-29), two breast (estrogen-dependent: MCF-7 and estrogen non-dependent: MDA-MB-231). Preliminary cytotoxicity assessment led to the identification of seven plants with significant cytotoxic potential, having IC50 < 1.0 mg/mL against a minimum of one cancer cell line. The identified plants were: Avicennia alba, Caesalpinia pulcherrima, Diospyros peregrina, Ecbolium viride, Jasminum sambac, Clitoria terantea, and Saraca asoca. The bioactivity detected correlated with their traditional uses as anticancer agents. Comparing cytotoxicity effects of the selected plants with that of Blumea lacera which was previously screened for cytotoxic potential in our research lab, Blumea lacera was found to be more cytotoxic and thus selected for bioassay-guided isolation of constituents.

Abstract:
Seven plants generally used for traditional oral care namely, Barleria albostellata, Cotyledon orbiculata, Dichrostachys cinerea, Heteropyxis natalensis, Carpobrotus edulis, Zanthoxylum capense and Dodonaea viscosa were investigated for antimicrobial activity and safety. Four pathogenic microorganisms, Actinomyces israelii, Streptococcus mutans, Prevotella intermedia and Candida albicans, were selected that represented the diversity of microbial flora in the oral cavity. No evidence could be found in the literature on the activity of the selected plant extracts against A. israelii, P. intermedia and S. mutans. Only H. natalensis exhibited activity against the Gram-positive microorganisms, A. israelii and S. mutans; minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was found to be 0.88 mg/ml and 1.82 mg/ml respectively. The MIC against the Gram-negative bacteria, P. intermedia was found to be 3.13 mg/ml. Dichrostachys cinerea exhibited activity towards a drug-sensitive stain of C. albicans (MIC of 10.71 mg/ml) and against a drug-resistant (polyene and azole resistant) strain of C. albicans (MIC of 10.42 mg/ml). Dichrostachys cinerea was the least toxic to both the Kidney epithelial cells of the African Green Monkey (Vero) and Human laryngeal epidermoid carcinoma cells (HEp-2) cell lines with 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 204 ± 0.13 μg/ml and 224 ± 0.1 μg/ml respectively. Heteropyxis natalensis was selected for further study as it exhibited moderate cytotoxicity (IC50 of 33.66 ± 0.04 μg/ml) on HEp-2 cells and the best antibacterial activity as compared to the other plant extracts investigated in this study. When H. natalensis was incorporated in a synergistic combination with the essential oils Melaleuca alternifolia (Tea tree) and Mentha piperita (peppermint); a fourfold reduction in the MIC of A. israelii was exhibited. Gingivitis, the infection of the gums, induces inflammation. To attract the white blood cell, leukocytes, to the site of infection; a chemokine known as Interluekin-8 (IL-8) is released. These cytokine, IL-8, levels were not reduced when the extract of H. natalensis was utilized to prevent the interaction of A. israelii with the epithelial cells, HEp-2. A Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) study to determine bacterial adhesion in the presence of H. natalensis indicated that the plant extract interferes with pellicle formation and glucan binding of S. mutans to the enamel surface of the tooth. Five known compounds were identified from the ethanolic extract of H. natalensis leaves and twigs. The compounds were identified as Aurentiacin A (1), Cardamomin (2), 5-hydroxy-7-methoxy-methylflavanone (3), Quercetin (4) and 3,5,7-trihydroxyflavan (5). The MICs of the compounds 1 and 4 were found to be 0.063 mg/ml and 1.0 mg/ml respectively against A. israelii. Compounds 2 and 5 exhibited no inhibitory activity at 1.0 mg/ml (the highest concentration tested) against A. israelii. This is the first report of the isolation of the five compounds and their activity against A. israelii.

Abstract:
Current COVID-19 effects are forcing us to think about other deadly viral diseases. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is one of them. Every year thousands of children lost their lives due to respiratory diseases which are occurred by this RSV. Nowadays, bioactive compounds show an enormous effect on many deadly diseases and show excellent therapeutic effects. In this study, we have identified five bioactive compounds from the plant which will be used in the treatment of RSV. Molecular docking on the protein was done by Autodock. Hydrogen was added and routable bonds were fixed in the preparation time of protein for docking. All those compounds show their non-toxic nature which is evaluated by Lipinski's Rule of Five. Molecular docking on RSV matrix protein and surface glycoprotein with those bioactive compounds shows very promising results. Between all those compounds Baicalein appears as a lead compound. It shows -8.1 Kcal/mol in the case of matrix protein and -7.9 kcal/mol in the case of the surface glycoprotein of RSV. Due to its availability and non-toxic nature, it can be used in the treatment of RSV. AS it is derived from plants, it also has very fewer side effects than chemical drugs.

Abstract:
Occurrence of compounds with antioxidant potential is widespread in plant foods but less common in animal tissues, including the aquatic species. These compounds are generally phenolic in nature but may also include phytates and biopeptides, among others. The antioxidant effects are mainly rendered through free radical scavenging and prooxidant metal ion chelation. The processing by-products are very rich in highly bioactive components and these may be exemplified by their presence in lentil hulls and processing discards of sea cucumber. The presentation will provide details about the chemical nature of the bioactive components present and their potential uses as functional food ingredients which would help a circular economy with valorization of processing discards.

Abstract:
Secondary metabolism in plant plays a major role in the survival of the plant in its ecosystem, mediating the interaction of the plant with its environment. Plant bioactive compounds are biosynthesized as a defensive strategy of plants in response to natural perturbations. A number of biological effects have been associated with the main monoterpenoids detected in investigated Micromeria spp. and Clinopodium spp. essential oils. One alternative for the production of these prospective biocontrol products is in vitro plant tissue culture. Our data suggest that the metabolic potential of in vitro shoot cultures of selected species can be manipulated by varying in vitro culture conditions.

Eneroth, Hanna, Hanna Karlsson Potter, and Elin Röös. Environmental impact of coffee, tea and cocoa – data collection for a consumer guide for plant-based foods. Department of Energy and Technology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.54612/a.2n3m2d2pjl.

Full text
Abstract:
In 2020, WWF launched a consumer guide on plant-based products targeting Swedish consumers. The development of the guide is described in a journal paper (Karlsson Potter & Röös, 2021) and the environmental impact of different plant based foods was published in a report (Karlsson Potter, Lundmark, & Röös, 2020). This report was prepared for WWF Sweden to provide scientific background information for complementing the consumer guide with information on coffee, tea and cocoa. This report includes quantitative estimations for several environmental categories (climate, land use, biodiversity and water use) of coffee (per L), tea (per L) and cocoa powder (per kg), building on the previously established methodology for the consumer guide. In addition, scenarios of consumption of coffee, tea and cocoa drink with milk/plant-based drinks and waste at household level, are presented. Tea, coffee and cacao beans have a lot in common. They are tropical perennial crops traditionally grown in the shade among other species, i.e. in agroforestry systems. Today, the production in intensive monocultures has negative impact on biodiversity. Re-introducing agroforestry practices may be part of the solution to improve biodiversity in these landscapes. Climate change will likely, due to changes in temperature, extreme weather events and increases in pests and disease, alter the areas where these crops can be grown in the future. A relatively high ratio of the global land used for coffee, tea and cocoa is certified according to sustainability standards, compared to other crops. Although research on the implications of voluntary standards on different outcomes is inconclusive, the literature supports that certifications have a role in incentivizing more sustainable farming. Coffee, tea and cocoa all contain caffeine and have a high content of bioactive compounds such as antioxidants, and they have all been associated with positive health outcomes. While there is a strong coffee culture in Sweden and coffee contributes substantially to the environmental impact of our diet, tea is a less consumed beverage. Cocoa powder is consumed as a beverage, but substantial amounts of our cocoa consumption is in the form of chocolate. Roasted ground coffee on the Swedish market had a climate impact of 4.0 kg CO2e per kg powder, while the climate impact of instant coffee powder was 11.5 kg CO2e per kg. Per litre, including the energy use for making the coffee, the total climate impact was estimated to 0.25 kg CO2e per L brewed coffee and 0.16 kg CO2e per L for instant coffee. Less green coffee beans are needed to produce the same amount of ready to drink coffee from instant coffee than from brewed coffee. Tea had a climate impact of approximately 6.3 kg CO2 e per kg dry leaves corresponding to an impact of 0.064 CO2e per L ready to drink tea. In the assessment of climate impact per cup, tea had the lowest impact with 0.013 kg CO2e, followed by black instant coffee (0.024 kg CO2e), black coffee (0.038 kg CO2e), and cocoa drink made with milk (0.33 kg CO2e). The climate impact of 1kg cocoa powder on the Swedish market was estimated to 2.8 kg CO2e. Adding milk to coffee or tea increases the climate impact substantially. The literature describes a high proportion of the total climate impact of coffee from the consumer stage due to the electricity used by the coffee machine. However, with the Nordic low-carbon energy mix, the brewing and heating of water and milk contributes to only a minor part of the climate impact of coffee. As in previous research, coffee also had a higher land use, water use and biodiversity impact than tea per L beverage. Another factor of interest at the consumer stage is the waste of prepared coffee. Waste of prepared coffee contributes to climate impact through the additional production costs and electricity for preparation, even though the latter was small in our calculations. The waste of coffee and tea at Summary household level is extensive and measures to reduce the amount of wasted coffee and tea could reduce the environmental impact of Swedish hot drink consumption. For the final evaluation of coffee and tea for the consumer guide, the boundary for the fruit and vegetable group was used. The functional unit for coffee and tea was 1 L prepared beverage without any added milk or sweetener. In the guide, the final evaluation of conventionally grown coffee is that it is ‘yellow’ (‘Consume sometimes’), and for organic produce, ‘light green’ (‘Please consume). The evaluation of conventionally grown tea is that it is ‘light green’, and for organic produce, ‘dark green’ (‘Preferably consume this’). For cocoa, the functional unit is 1 kg of cocoa powder and the boundary was taken from the protein group. The final evaluation of conventionally grown cocoa is that it is ‘orange’ (‘Be careful’), and for organically produced cocoa, ‘light green’.

Gurevitz, Michael, William A. Catterall, and Dalia Gordon. face of interaction of anti-insect selective toxins with receptor site-3 on voltage-gated sodium channels as a platform for design of novel selective insecticides. United States Department of Agriculture, December 2013. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/2013.7699857.bard.

Abstract:
Voltage-gated sodium channels (Navs) play a pivotal role in excitability and are a prime target of insecticides like pyrethroids. Yet, these insecticides are non-specific due to conservation of Navs in animals, raising risks to the environment and humans. Moreover, insecticide overuse leads to resistance buildup among insect pests, which increases misuse and risks. This sad reality demands novel, more selective, insect killers whose alternative use would avoid or reduce this pressure. As highly selective insect toxins exist in venomous animals, why not exploit this gift of nature and harness them in insect pest control? Many of these peptide toxins target Navs, and since their direct use via transformed crop plants or mediator microorganisms is problematic in public opinion, we focus on the elucidation of their receptor binding sites with the incentive of raising knowledge for design of toxin peptide mimetics. This approach is preferred nowadays by agro-industries in terms of future production expenses and public concern. However, characterization of a non-continuous epitope, that is the channel receptor binding site for such toxins, requires a suitable experimental system. We have established such a system within more than a decade and reached the stage where we employ a number of different insect-selective toxins for the identification of their receptor sites on Navs. Among these toxins we wish to focus on those that bind at receptor site-3 and inhibit Nav inactivation because: (1) We established efficient experimental systems for production and manipulation of site-3 toxins from scorpions and sea anemones. These peptides vary in size and structure but compete for site-3 on insect Navs. Moreover, these toxins exhibit synergism with pyrethroids and with other channel ligands; (2) We determined their bioactive surfaces towards insect and mammalian receptors (see list of publications); (3) We found that despite the similar mode of action on channel inactivation, the preference of the toxins for insect and mammalian channel subtypes varies greatly, which can direct us to structural features in the basis of selectivity; (4) We have identified by channel loop swapping and point mutagenesis extracellular segments of the Navinvolved with receptor site-3. On this basis and using channel scanning mutagenesis, neurotoxin binding, electrophysiological analyses, and structural data we offer: (i) To identify the residues that form receptor site-3 at insect and mammalian Navs; (ii) To identify by comparative analysis differences at site-3 that dictate selectivity toward various Navs; (iii) To exploit the known toxin structures and bioactive surfaces for modeling their docking at the insect and mammalian channel receptors. The results of this study will enable rational design of novel anti-insect peptide mimetics with minimized risks to human health and to the environment. We anticipate that the release of receptor site-3 molecular details would initiate a worldwide effort to design peptide mimetics for that site. This will establish new strategies in insect pest control using alternative insecticides and the combined use of compounds that interact allosterically leading to increased efficiency and reduced risks to humans or resistance buildup among insect pests.
