Abstract

Wide application of extracts and raw plant materials places high requirements on quality of these materials. The aim of the study was to describe problems with obtaining and determination of chalcones and flavanones common in plants. The results may be used for creation of a method for quality assessment of plant drugs containing flavonoid compounds.

Inhibitory activity of cyclohexenyl chalcone derivatives and flavonoids of fingerroot, Boesenbergia rotunda (L.), towards dengue-2 virus NS3 protease.

Boesenbergia rotunda (L.) cyclohexenyl chalcone derivatives, 4-hydroxypanduratin A and panduratin A, showed good competitive inhibitory activities towards dengue 2 virus NS3 protease with the Ki values of 21 and 25 microM, respectively, whilst those of pinostrobin and cardamonin were observed to be non-competitive. NMR and GCMS spectroscopic data formed the basis of assignment of structures of the six compounds isolated.

Microbial metabolism of the prenylated chalcone xanthohumol.

Microbial metabolism of xanthohumol (1), a prenylated chalcone isolated from hops, gave three novel glucosylated derivatives (2-4) and a known compound, isoxanthohumol (5). The structures of the new compounds were identified as xanthohumol 4'-O-beta-glucopyranoside (2), xanthohumol 4,4'-O-beta-diglucopyranoside (3), and 5-methoxy-8-prenylnaringenin 7-O-beta-glucopyranoside (4) on the basis of spectroscopic methods.

Synthesis and PPAR-gamma ligand-binding activity of the new series of 2'-hydroxychalcone and thiazolidinedione derivatives.

Fifteen chalcones and three thiazolidinedione (TZD) chalcones were prepared to evaluate their peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) ligand-binding activities. Among the three TZDs, one compound possessed PPAR-gamma transactivation potential, while the others showed antagonistic activity against PPAR-gamma transactivation. Among the chalcones, compound 5 was the most potent, and structure-activity relationship studies indicated that a methoxyl group in position C-4 and hydroxyl group in position C-4' or 5' in chalcone plays a key role in determining the potency of PPAR-gamma activation.
