The structures of obtained pure compounds were elucidated with different spectroscopic techniques, and two pure materialswere tested for protection of DNA from damage, antioxidant, antitumor, and cytotoxicity.Results:Four pure compounds were obtained, of which fucosterol (1) and fucoxanthin (4) were tested; it was found that fucoxanthin has strong antioxidant and cytotoxicity against breast cancer (MCF-7) with IC50 = 11.5 μg/ml.Conclusion:The naturally highly conjugated safe compound fucoxanthin could be used as antioxidant and as an antitumor compound.Keywords: Antioxidant, cytotoxicity, fucoxanthin, Sargassum spOther Sections▼AbstractINTRODUCTIONMATERIALS AND METHODSRESULTS AND DISCUSSIONREFERENCESThe genus Sargassum belongs to brown algae of class Phaeophyceae in the order Fucales. Numerous species are distributed throughout the tropical and subtropical oceans of the world, where they generally inhabit shallow water and coral reefs. However, the genus may be well known for its planktonic (free-floating) species.[1] It was clear from the literatures that more than 62 species of the genus Sargassum has been investigated,[2] and indicated its productivity with impressive diversity of natural compounds. For instances, the secondary metabolites contain different structural classes such as plastoquinones,[3–5] chromanols,[6] chromenes,[7,8] steroids,[9] and glycerides.[10] The publications showed that, Sargassum metabolites have wide range of biological activities, which include antibiotic,anti-HIV, anticoagulant, anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, antineoplastic, and antitumor.[11–14]In continuation of our search program, which interested in the isolation of secondary metabolites from marine sources, especially macroalgae collected from Red Sea,[15–17] a marine macroalgae, identified as Sargassum sp., collected from El- Shuaiba lagoon 80 km south of Jeddah, was investigated. The total extract (Pet. ether: Chloroform: Methanol [1 : 1 : 1]) had been fractionated using differentchromatographic techniques and afforded four metabolites; fucosterol (1), saringosterone (2), saringosterol (3), and fucoxanthin (4). 1 and 4 had been tested toward the Bleomycin-dependent DNA damage, cytotoxicity against HepG2 (human hepatocellular liver carcinoma cell line), WI 38 (Skin carcinoma cell line), Vero (cell line was initiated from the kidney of a normal adult African green monkey), MCF-7 (breast cancer cell lines), antitumor, and antioxidant using2,2‘-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS).Other Sections▼AbstractINTRODUCTIONMATERIALS AND METHODSRESULTS AND DISCUSSIONREFERENCESApparatus and materialChromatographic material: Aluminum oxide type 60-120 mesh was used for column chromatography. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) silica gel GF 254 was used for TLC. Preparative thin-layer chromatography (PTLC) was performed on aluminum oxide plates (20 × 20 cm) of 250-mm thickness. Electron impact mass spectra were determined at 70 eV on a Kratos MS-25 instrument. 1D and 2D NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectra were recorded on Bruker AVANCE III WM 600 MHz spectrometers and 13C NMR at 150 MHz Chemical shift s are given in δ (ppm) relative to TMS (Tetramethyl silane) as internal standard. The Infra Red (IR) spectra were recorded on a Perkin Elmer spectrometer model 100. The spray reagent used is 50%-sulfuric acid in methanol as spraying reagent. The chromatoplate was heated after spraying at 100 to 105°C until the spots attained maximum color intensity. The alga was described as Sargassum (Family Sargassaceae) and was collected by hand from El- Shuaiba lagoon 80 km south of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in the Red Sea, in June 2010.Extraction of Sargassum spThe air-dried algal material (350 g) was extracted by equal volume of mixture of Pet. ether, chloroform, and methanol (2 × 6 l, 24 hours for each batch) at room temperature. The extract was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 10 g residue. This material was chromatographed on a column of Silica gel.Column chromatographySilica gel column (500 g, 80 × 2.5 cm) was used for resolution. The residue (10 g) was homogenized with small amount of silica gel (50 g) and poured on to the top of the column which was packed in Pet. ether (40: 60). The eluent were used successively (Pet. ether- Ether, Pet. ether- Ethyl acetate). Fractions were collected (50 ml); Pet. ether- Ether mixture of increasing polarity by diethyl ether and then ethyl acetate and followed by TLC using silica-gel chromatoplates, appropriate solvent system and 50% sulfuric acid in methanol as spraying reagent. If the material was not pure, preparative TLC was applied using the appropriate solvent system and the adsorbent aluminum oxide for purification.Isolated compoundsThe fraction A eluted by Pet. ether-Ether (6 : 4) was collected and rechromatographed over PTLC of silica gel using Pet. Ether-ethyl acetate (8 : 2) to give three compounds: 1 , 2, and 3. The fraction B eluted by Pet. ether-Ethyl acetate (6 : 4) was collected and rechromatographed on Sephadex LH-20 using a mixture of MeOH-CHCl3 (9 : 1) and then finally purified by preparative TLC of silica gel using chloroform methanol (9.5 : 0.5) to afford a pure compound 4.Fucosterol (1), (24E)-Stigmasta-5, 24(28)-diene-3β-ol: white solid (30 mg, 0.008% dry wt) m.p. 133-135°C.

The mixture was incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. The reaction was terminated by addition of 0.05 ml EDTA (0.1 M). Thecolor was developed by adding 0.5 ml TBA (1% w/v) and 0.5 ml HCl (25% v/v), followed by heating at 80°C for 10 minutes. After centrifugation, the extent of DNA damage was measured by increase in absorbance at 532 nm.[18,19] The viability of the cells was determined by the microscopical examination[20] using a hemocytometer and using trypan blue stain (stains only the dead cells). Antioxidant activity screening assay2,2’-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid methodFor each of the investigated compounds, 2 ml of ABTS solution (60 μM) was added to 3 ml MnO2 solution (25 mg/ml), all prepared in 5 ml aqueous phosphate buffer solution (pH, 7; 0.1 M). The mixture was shaken, centrifuged, filtered, and the absorbance of the resulting green-blue solution (ABTS radical solution) at λ 734 nm was adjusted to approximately ca. 0.5. Then, 50μl of (2 mM) solution of the tested compound in spectroscopic grade MeOH/phosphate buffer (1: 1) was added. The absorbance was measured and the reduction in color intensity was expressed as inhibition percentage. L-ascorbic acid was used as standard antioxidant (positive control). Blank sample was run without ABTS and using MeOH/phosphate buffer (1: 1) instead of tested compounds. Negative control was run with ABTS and MeOH/phosphate buffer (1: 1) only.[21]Cytotoxicity and antitumor assaySamples were prepared for assay by dissolving in 50 μl of DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide), and diluting aliquots into sterile culture medium at 0.4 mg/ml. These solutions were sub-diluted to 0.02 mg/ml in sterile medium and the two solutions were used as stocks to test samples at 100, 50, 20, 10, 5, 2, and 1 mg/ml in triplicate in the wells of microtiter plates. The compounds were assayed in triplicate on monolayers grown in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% (v/v) calf serum (HyClone Laboratories, Ogden, UT), 60 mg/ml Penicillin G, and 100 mg/ml streptomycin sulfate maintained at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere containing about 15% (v/v) CO 2 in air. All medium components were obtained from Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO, unless otherwise indicated. Cell stockswere maintained at 34°C in culture flasks filled with medium supplemented with 1% (v/v) calf serum. Subcultures of cells for screening were grown in the wells of microtiter trays (Falcon Microtest III 96-wells trays, Becton Dickinson Labware, Lincolin Park, NJ) by suspending cells in medium following trypsin-EDTA treatment, counting the suspension with a hemocytometer, diluting in medium containing 10% calf serum to 2 × 104 cells per 200 ml culture, aliquoting into each well of a tray, and culturing until confluent. Microtiter trays with confluent monolayer cultures of cells were inverted, the medium shaken out, and replaced with serial dilutions of sterile compounds in triplicate in 100 l medium followed by titered virus in 100 ml medium containing 10% (v/v) calf serum in each well. In each tray, the last row of wells was reserved for controls that were not treated with compounds. Trays were cultured for 96 hours. Trays were inverted onto a paper towel pad, the remaining cells rinsed carefully with medium, and fixed with 3.7% (v/v) formaldehyde in saline for at least 20 minutes. The fixed cells were rinsed with water, and examined visually. The cytotoxic activity is identified as confluent, relatively unaltered monolayers of stained cells treated with the investigated compounds. Cytotoxicity was estimated as the concentration that caused approximately 50% loss of the monolayer. 5-fluorouracil was used as a positive control.[22]Other Sections▼AbstractINTRODUCTIONMATERIALS AND METHODSRESULTS AND DISCUSSIONREFERENCESCompound 1 showed in its EI MS a molecular ion at m/z 412,(Liebermann-burchard reaction gave the typical slow reacting green color of a Δ5 sterol) which[23] together with 13C NMR data suggested a molecular formula of C29 H48O. The loss of part of the side chain (C7H14) is characteristic of sterols[23] witha Δ24(28). 1H NMR spectroscopic data were typical of sterols, in which a sign al at δ0.88 (6H, d, J= 6.6 Hz) attributable to the two methyls of an isopropyl group, a signal at δ 0.91 (3H, d, J= 6.6 Hz) and two signals at δ 1.00 (3H, s) and at δ 0.68 (3H, s) assigned to two methyl groups attached to two quaternary carbons areassigned to C-26, C-27, C-21, C-19 and C-18, respectively. In addition, a doublet at δ 1.59 ppm (J= 6.6 Hz) for the proton at C-29 (δc18.70), a quartet δ 5.18 ppm (J = 6.6 Hz) at C-28 proton (δc115.54), a multiplet at δ 5.35 for C-6 proton (δc 121.70), and a multiplet at 3.53 for C-3 proton (δc 71.80) were observed. 13C NMR of compound 1 indicated 29 carbons, of which two double bonds and a secondary alcohol (cf exp.) were present. The DEPT spectra showed that compound 1 contains six methyl, ten methylene, nine methane, and four quaternary carbons. The stereochemistry at the side chain double bond can be explained by observing the1HNMR spectra at the C-25 proton which resonates at δ 2.32 ppm (δc 36.50) in case of (E) isomer (Frost, ward, 1968). The position of the ethylidene group was proved from HMQC, HMBC correlations, and COSY experiment. These data are in agreement with literature[24] which can allow us to assign compound 1 as fucosterol [Figure 1].Compound 2 showed in its EI MS a molecular ion at m/z 426, which together with 13C-NMR and HREI MS suggested a molecular formula of C29H46O2 (m/z426.3413; calcd. 426.3349). The double doublet at δ 5.75 (J = 18, 13 Hz), doublet at 5.29 (J = 13 Hz), and doublet at 5.17 (J = 18 Hz) in the 1H-NMR and signals at δc 137.79 and 117.10 in the 13C NMR were attributable to terminal vinyl protons, three methyl doublets at 0.96, 0.87, 0.85 in the 1H-NMR spectrum. These data, together with the presence of a fragment at m/z 271 in the mass spectrum due to the loss of the side-chain C10H19O, suggest a stigmastane skeleton with unsaturation at C-28. The IR spectrum showed strong bands at 3420 and 1675 cm-1. The above data, together with the presence of signals at δc 200.38, 172.38, 124.42, and 89.75 in the 13C NMR spectrum and a signal at δ 5.74 in the 1H NMR spectrum, suggested the presence of α,β -unsaturated carbonyl group and a tertiary hydroxyl function in the molecule. As the compound contains two double bonds and two oxygen atoms, one as carbonyl and the second as tertiary hydroxyl, also has seven degrees of unsaturation revealed by mass spectrometry, it must be a tetracyclic product. The structure of known compound 2 [Figure 1] was established by comparison of itsdata (cf exp.) with literature.[25]Compound 3, its structure was established by comparing their physical and spectral data (cf exp.) with those in the literature[25,26] as 24-vinyl cholest -5-ene -3β,24-diol.Compound 4 was isolated as a bright orange solid and the IR showed the presence of the hydroxyl (3439 cm-1), sp-hybrid carbon (allenic) (2361, 2332 cm-1), ester (1721, 1253 cm-1), and polyene (1654, 1605 cm-1) groups. Its molecular formula was deduced as C42H58O6 based on HRFAB-MS analysis [M+], m/z: 658.4224 (Calcd. for C42H58O6, 658. 4233), and NMR spectroscopic data (cf exp.). The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of active compound revealed signals assignable to polyene having acetyl, conjugated ketone, two quaternary geminal dimethyls, two quaternary geminal methyls of oxygen, four olefinic methyls, and allene functionalities. The physicochemical features outlined above suggested that the active compound was a carotenoid in which one of the hydroxyl groups was acetylated. This suggestion was further supported by the UV spectrum [448(ε560,000), 248 (24,000)]. From detailed comparison of the data for the active compound with those of fucoxanthin [Figure 1], the active compound was in agreement with an authentic fucoxanthin in all aspects.[27–29]The data obtained from Table 1 indicate that fucoxanthin (4) have some protective activity to DNA by certain mechanism . The isolated compounds were screened for their antitumor activity against MCF-7. The viability of the cells used in control experiments exceeded 95%; compound 4 proved to have cytotoxic activity sustained for 48 hours after adding the compound to MCF-7, as shown in Table 1. Compounds 1 and 4 were tested for antioxidant activity, where fucoxanthin (4) exhibited the highest antioxidant activity by 72% inhibition [Table 2]. On the other hand, compound 1 exhibited a weak to moderate activity.Compounds 1 and 4 displayed significant antioxidant and anticancer activities [Table 3] against HepG2 (human hepatocellular liver carcinoma cell line), WI 38 (Skin carcinoma cell line), Vero (cell line was initiated from the kidney of a normaladult African green monkey), and MCF-7 (breast cancer cell lines).

抗氧化剂抗氧化能力测定法

抗氧化剂抗氧化能力测定法English Answer:Antioxidant Capacity Assay Methods.Antioxidant capacity assays are widely used to evaluate the ability of a substance to inhibit oxidation. Various methods have been developed to measure antioxidant capacity, each with its own advantages and limitations. Here are some commonly used methods:(1) DPPH Assay (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl)。
The DPPH assay is a simple and widely used method to measure the radical scavenging capacity of antioxidants. In this assay, DPPH, a stable free radical, is reduced to its non-radical form by antioxidants, leading to a color change from purple to yellow. The reduction rate and extent are proportional to the antioxidant capacity of the sample.(2) FRAP Assay (Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power)。
The FRAP assay measures the ability of antioxidants to reduce ferric ions (Fe3+) to ferrous ions (Fe2+). Antioxidants reduce Fe3+ to Fe2+ in the presence of a chromogenic substrate, resulting in a color change that can be quantified spectrophotometrically. The FRAP assay is commonly used to assess the reducing power of antioxidants.(3) ABTS Assay (2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid))。

24December 2009Keywords:Antioxidant activity Flavonoids Interactions Synergism Antagonisma b s t r a c tFlavonoids are polyphenols widely distributed in fruits and vegetables,and have been shown to be good antioxidants in different models.However,studies undertaken with the aim of predetermining the anti-oxidant power of a given food on the basis of its flavonoid content have,in most cases,failed due to dif-ferences between the theoretical and the calculated antioxidant power of that given product.In the present work,the antioxidant activity of eleven flavonoids (cyanidin-3-O-glucoside,malvidin-3-O-gluco-side,delphinidin-3-O-glucoside,peonidin-3-O-glucoside,pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside,catechin,epicate-chin,kaempferol,myricetin,quercetin and quercetin-3-b -glucoside)was measured by two different in vitro tests:DPPH Åradical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP).In order to evaluate the effect of flavonoid interactions on their antioxidant power we compared the capacity of individual flavonoids with that obtained by mixing them with another flavonoid.The majority of DPPH Åscavenging activities in these combinations promoted antagonistic effects,except for some synergistic interactions such as kaempferol paired with myricetin.In the FRAP assay,the interaction between epicat-echin and quercetin-3-b -glucoside showed the highest synergistic effect,whereas myricetin with quer-cetin resulted in an antagonistic effect.It can be concluded,therefore,that there are synergistic and antagonistic interactions between flavo-noids that may explain the results obtained when measuring the antioxidant effect of whole food extracts.The present results may also assist in the future design of functional foods or ingredients based on their antioxidant activity.Ó2010Elsevier Ltd.All rights reserved.1.IntroductionFlavonoids are among the most studied phytochemicals found in plant foods and include a large number of different molecules which may result in diverse biological activities.Numerous studies have focused on determining flavonoid antioxidant activity,many of which have used pure compounds,calculating their individual antioxidant power and performing structure–activity relationship studies (Plumb,de Pascual-Teresa,Santos-Buelga,Cheynier,&Wil-liamson,1998;Rice-Evans,Miller,&Paganga,1996).In other stud-ies the antioxidant power of a given food sample,mainly oils (Mateos,Domínguez,Espartero,&Cert,2003),fruits and vegetables (García-Alonso,Rimbach,Rivas-Gonzalo,&de Pascual-Teresa,2004;Plumb et al.,1996)or tea and wine (Leung et al.,2001;Sán-chez-Moreno,Larrauri,&Saura-Calixto,1999)has been character-ised in depth and,in some cases,the correlation between flavonoid composition and antioxidant power has been examined (Fernán-dez-Pachón,Villano,García-Parrilla,&Troncoso,2004).When in 1936Szent-Györgyi (Rusznyák &Szent-Györgyi,1936)reported the presence of what he first called ‘‘vitamin P”in citrus fruits,he had already hypothesized that flavonoids and vitamin C worked synergistically to strengthen capillaries (Rusznyák &Szent-Györgyi,1936).Subsequently,some studies showed that biological interactions took place between flavonoids and some vitamins in in vitro and in vivo models.Lotito and Fraga (1998)de-scribed the protective effect of catechin against a -tocopherol depletion in plasma.More recently,Kadoma,Ishihara,Okada,and Fujisawa (2006)demonstrated that there was a synergic antioxi-dant effect between d -tocopherol and epicatechin and epigalloca-techin gallate in an in vitro model.Frank et al.(2006)showed that the inclusion of quercetin,catechin or epicatechin in the diet of rats gave rise to an increase in a -tocopherol concentrations in blood plasma and liver.Many studies on the antioxidant potential of flavonoids in fruits,vegetables,wine or tea have concluded that it is impossible to predict the antioxidant power of a given product by studying just one type of flavonoid or other kind of antioxidants contained in the product,such as vitamin C or E.In some cases the possible existence of synergic or antagonistic effects between the various antioxidants present in plant foods and derived products has been0308-8146/$-see front matter Ó2010Elsevier Ltd.All rights reserved.doi:10.1016/j.foodchem.2009.12.097*Corresponding author.Tel.:+34915492300;fax:+34915493627.E-mail address:soniapt@if.csic.es (S.de Pascual-Teresa).Food Chemistry 121(2010)691–696Contents lists available at ScienceDirectFood Chemistryj o u r n a l h o m e p a g e :/locate/foodchempostulated(García-Alonso et al.,2004;Vinson,Su,Zubik,&Bose, 2001).However until now very few studies have focused on the assessment offlavonoid–flavonoid interactions in terms of antiox-idant activity.Heo,Kim,Chung,and Kim(2007)did notfind any synergistic effect between the assayedflavonoids by using the ABTS method and expressing results as a vitamin C equivalent. However,Pinelo,Manzocco,Nuñez,and Nicoli(2004)found an antagonistic effect when phenols interacted at three different tem-peratures using the DPPH method and several studies showed a synergistic antioxidant effect offlavonoids on free-radical-initiated peroxidation of linoleic acid(Rossetto et al.,2002).An antioxidant effect was observed by Pignatelli et al.(2000)with theflavonoids quercetin and catechin,indicating that these components of red wine act synergistically to inhibit platelet adhesion to collagen and collagen-induced platelet aggregation by virtue of their antiox-idant effect.In general,all results for isolatedflavonoids indicate high anti-oxidant activity.Although the in vitro antioxidant properties for isolated polyphenols have already been well documented(Rive-ro-Pérez,Muñiz,&González-Sanjosé,2008),in this paper we will extend this knowledge to include the antioxidant properties pro-duced by the interaction of twoflavonoids,in terms of synergistic or antagonistic effects.To accomplish this objective we have measuredflavonoid anti-oxidant activity andflavonoid–flavonoid interactions by employ-ing the following two methods:scavenging of the stable2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPHÅ)radical and ferric reducing anti-oxidant power(FRAP).In particular,we have compared the antiox-idant capacity of a system containing a mixture of twoflavonoids with that of each singleflavonoid measured individually,in order to better understand the global antioxidant capacity offlavonoid rich products such as red wine or fruit juices.Theflavonoids stud-ied were:cyanidin-3-O-glucoside chloride,malvidin-3-O-gluco-side chloride,delphinidin-3-O-glucoside chloride,peonidin-3-O-glucoside chloride,pelargonidin-3-glucoside chloride,(+)catechin, (À)epicatechin,kaempferol,myricetin,quercetin and quercetin-3-b-glucoside.2.Materials and methods2.1.Chemicals6-Hidroxy-2,5,7,8,-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid97%, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical(DPPHÅ),2,4,6-tris(2-pyri-dyl)-s-triazine(TPTZ),iron(III)chloride hexahydrate,acetate buf-fer saline,myricetin,(+)catechin,(À)epicatechin and quercetin dihydrate were purchased from Sigma–Aldrich Química S.A.(Ma-drid,Spain).Quercetin-3-b-glucoside and kaempferol96%from Fluka,Sigma–Aldrich Química S.A.(Madrid,Spain).Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside chloride,pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside chloride,malvi-din-3-O-glucoside chloride,delphinidin-3-O-glucoside chloride and peonidin-3-O-glucoside chloride were purchased from Extra-synthese(Lyon,France).Methanol(HPLC grade)from Lab-Scan (Dublin,Ireland).Ethanol absolute99%,HCl37%and dimethyl sulf-oxide(DMSO)were obtained from Panreac(Barcelona,Spain).2.2.DPPHÅradical scavenging capacity assayThe DPPHÅmethod reported by Brand-Williams,Cuvelier,and Berset(1995)was used but with some modifications.DPPHÅis a stable radical widely used to monitor the free radical scavenging abilities(the ability of a compound to donate an electron)of vari-ous antioxidants.The DPPHÅradical has a deep violet colour due to its impaired electron,and radical scavenging can be followed spec-trophotometrically by the loss of absorbance at517nm,as the pale yellow nonradical form is produced.To optimise the conditions used to run the DPPHÅassay in microplates we modified the DPPHÅconcentration,the time of reaction and the range of concentrations used for theflavonoids.As a result,wefinally set the DPPHÅcon-centration at100l M,the time of reaction at1h and the antioxi-dant concentration between100and500l M.Briefly,10l l of individualflavonoid or5l l of each of the paired flavonoids were placed in a96-well microplate,in order to give the same level offlavonoid concentration,then290l l of100l M DPPHÅin methanol was added,mixed well,and after1h of incuba-tion in the dark absorbance was measured at517nm using a microplate reader(Power Wave XS,BIOTEK).All samples were run in triplicate.The results were expressed as EC50(l M),and ob-tained by plotting the remaining percentage of DPPHÅagainst the flavonoid concentration to obtain the amount of antioxidant neces-sary to decrease the initial DPPHÅconcentration by50%.2.3.Ferric reducing antioxidant power(FRAP)assayThe total antioxidant potential of a sample was also determined using the ferric reducing antioxidant power(FRAP)assay by Benzie and Strain(1996).This method is based on reducing the power of an antioxidant compound.A potential antioxidant will reduce the ferric ion(Fe3+)to the ferrous ion(Fe2+)at low pH;the latter forms a blue complex(Fe2+/TPTZ),measured at593nm.The FRAP reagent was freshly prepared by mixing together0.3M acetate buffer(pH 3.6),10mM TPTZ in40mM HCl and20mM FeCl3in a proportion 10:1:1(v/v/v),respectively.Testedflavonoids were prepared at 100l M and200l M in DMSO.The assay was carried out by placing 10l l individualflavonoid at100l M or5l l at200l M for each of the pairedflavonoid in a96-well microplate and then adding 290l l of FRAP reagent.In a second FRAP assay,we selected com-binations offlavonoids in different concentration ratios(3:1,2:1 and1:1)using afixedfinal concentration(200l M).After15min of incubation at37°C and shaking,absorbance was read at 593nm.All samples were run in triplicate.Results were compared with a standard curve prepared daily with different concentrations of Trolox and were expressed as l M trolox equivalents(TE).2.4.Statistical analysisThe results were reported as means±standard deviation(SD)of at least three measurements,each performed in triplicate.One-way analysis of variance(ANOVA)was used to compare the means, and the least significant difference(LSD)test showed the values statistically different.Differences were considered significant at P<0.05.All statistical analyses were performed with Statgraphics Plus5.1(Statistical Graphics Corporation,Inc.,Rockville,MD,USA).3.Results and discussionIt has been suggested thatflavonoids have several potential health benefits due,in part,to their antioxidant activity,and re-cently,research on natural antioxidants,includingflavonoids,has increased actively in variousfields.According to Moon and Shi-bamoto(2009),in order to study the antioxidant activity of these compounds,it is important to choose an adequate assay based on the chemistry of the compound of interest.Some assays are concerned with electron or radical scavenging,including the2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)assay or the2,20-azinobis(3-eth-ylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)(ABTS)assay whereas other as-says are focused on reducing oxidising ability such as the ferric reducing antioxidant power(FRAP)assay or the Ferrous Oxida-tion-Xylenon Orange(FOX)assay.692M.Hidalgo et al./Food Chemistry121(2010)691–696M.Hidalgo et al./Food Chemistry121(2010)691–696693 Table1Antioxidant activity of singleflavonoids and in

different value from the comparison between experimental results,obtained for a solution of twoflavonoids,with theoretical results, calculated by summing the effects of individual compounds measured separately.In order to determine the synergistic/antagonistic effect for DPPH and FRAP the following equations were used:Difference in DPPH antioxidant activity=100À[mixture EC50Â200/(A EC50+B EC50)];where mixture EC50is the result obtained experimentally for the mixture of twoflavonoids(A and B)in the experimental conditions described in the methodological section,and A EC50and B EC50values are the EC50measured individually for each compound.Difference in FRAP antioxidant activity=[mixture FRAP valueÂ100/(A FRAP value+B FRAP value)]À100;where mixture FRAP value is the result obtained experimentally for the mixture of twoflavonoids(A and B)in the experimental conditions described in the methodological section,and A FRAP value and B FRAP vale are the FRAP values measured individually for each compound.In both methods,positive values are considered synergistic and negative values antagonistic effects.Therefore,the correct evaluation of the antioxidant activity of several commercialflavonoids requires the use of more than one method,consequently,we used two methods based on fundamen-tally different approaches such as the DPPHÅand FRAP methods, which are highly sensitive assays with reproducible results.3.1.DPPHÅradical scavenging capacityThe results obtained experimentally for the differentflavonoid combinations were compared with theoretical values calculated by adding up the effects of both individual compounds analysed separately.In this way,any statistically significant effect resulting from these combinations could be established whether synergistic or antagonistic.As a consequence,it was possible to calculate per-centagewise variations in antioxidant activity for each combina-tion of twoflavonoids and compare the results with those calculated for their theoretical activity.The results obtained are summarised in Table1which clearly indicates that the majority of the mixtures showed a loss of antioxidant capacity compared with their theoretical values.After comparing the EC50values of individual compounds,flavo-nols such as quercetin or myricetin,with two and three hydroxyl groups respectively in B-rings,showed the highest antioxidant activity.The present results are in accordance with those of other authors(Cao,Sofic,&Prior,1997)who demonstrated that the number and pattern of hydroxyl substitutions on the B-ring are associated with the highest antioxidant activity.Moreover,it seems that the combination of catechol moiety with a double bond at C2–C3and a hydroxyl group in position3makes it an extremely active scavenger(Van Acker et al.,1996).In contrast,our study revealed that pelargonidin-3-glucoside and kaempferol,with only one hydroxyl group in the B-ring,were the individual compounds with lowest antioxidant capacity.How-ever,when kaempferol was paired with myricetin,quercetin or quercetin-3-glucoside we obtained a statistically significant in-crease in antioxidant activity,so it can be described as having a synergistic effect(Fig.1).Furthermore,in these combinations,an increase in antioxidant activity of about20%was achieved com-pared with their theoretical values.In the same way,in the cyani-din-3-glucoside and myricetin-3-glucoside combination a synergistic effect was also found.However,when we paired pelargonidin-3-glucoside,another compound with low antioxidant activity,with compounds such as catechin,epicatechin,kaempferol,quercetin or quercetin-3-glu-coside,the results seemed to indicate very weak DPPHÅscavenging activities,revealing statistically significant antagonism when real values are compared with theoretical ones.The structural differences existing between kaempferol and pelargonidin-3-glucoside could be responsible for the opposite ef-fect of interaction in these mixtures,and even though kaempferol has only one hydroxyl group in the B-ring as does pelargonidin,it does contain the2,3-double bond in the C-ring and the4-oxo func-tion.On the other hand,pelargonidin has a glucoside residue at C3 and an oxonium ion(O+)in the C-ring.Apart from the foregoing,antagonistic effects were also found in the interactions of peonidin-3-glucoside,delphinidin-3-gluco-side,malvidin-3-glucoside,catechin,epicatechin,myricetin,quer-cetin or quercetin-3-glucoside.In the majority of cases,these interactions tended to have an antagonistic effect on radical scavenging capacity.It is important to note that the strongest antagonistic reaction was found when quercetin-3-glucoside was paired with thefive anthocyanins assayed in this study,which resulted in a consider-able loss of antioxidant activity.Anthocyanins,frequently found in coloured fruit and vegetables,are a group offlavonoids with an exceptionally good individual scavenging capacity,a fact that has already been confirmed in published research(Borkowski, Szymusiak,Gliszczynska-Swiglo,Rietjens,&Tyrakowska,2005; García-Alonso et al.,2005).Previous studies have asserted that anthocyanin antioxidant capacity depends on the aglycon moiety and the glycoside forms,thus explaining why the number of sugar residues at the C3position seems to be associated with lower activ-ity(Rice-Evans et al.,1996).However,other authors concluded that anthocyanin glycosilation increases antioxidant capacity (Wang,Cao,&Prior,1997;Yoshiki,Okubo,&Igarashi,1995).On the other hand,theflavonoid quercetin which is an antioxidant occurring mainly in foods as a3-or40-glucoside,and also as quer-cetin-3-rutinoside(commonly found in black tea)can be trans-formed into quercetin-3-glucoside by splitting the rhamnose molecule,consequently thisflavonoid is widely distributed in fresh fruits and vegetables as well as in processed food products. Although,anthocyanins and quercetin-3-glucoside exert good anti-oxidant power individually,our results indicate that when these flavonoids are paired,an interaction takes place affecting their to-tal antioxidant capacity.The tendency offlavonoids to combine when they are mixed together is well-known,hence it is possible that in these interactions a hydrogen-bonding betweenflavonoids may occur,decreasing the availability of the hydroxyl groups, which may in turn reduce the possibility of interaction with the radical DPPHÅ.The importance of these antagonistic interactions cannot be overstated as anthocyanins and quercetin-3-glucoside are usually present together in many fruits and vegetables as well as in red wine and fruit juices.Moreover,they are also essential components in some of the functional ingredients and foods that have been pro-posed over the past few years(Blando,Gerardi,&Nicoletti,2004; Gonzalez-Molina,Moreno,&Garcia-Viguera,2008).From the foregoing it is evident that the significant differences in antioxidant activity can be explained byflavonoid interaction mechanisms.In conclusion,these data support the hypothesis that flavonoid interactions reduce in part,the total antioxidant activity found in food matrices,and in general,in plant foods and fruit ex-tracts,juices and other derived products.3.2.Ferric reducing antioxidant power(FRAP)After assaying all the possibleflavonoid combinations in pairs, we obtained a preliminary evaluation of the antioxidant capacity of theflavonoids,and in this way were able to compare the exper-imental results obtained for each of the pairedflavonoids with the-oretical values calculated by adding up the effect of individual compounds measured separately.We were then able to establish which of these combinations produced a statistically significant ef-694M.Hidalgo et al./Food Chemistry121(2010)691–696fect,either synergistically or antagonistically,with respect to their theoretical values(Table1).Finally,in order to reveal the contribu-tion of eachflavonoid to the antioxidant activity in the mixture, different concentration ratios were assayed.Therefore,the values summarised in Table2,show the differences in antioxidant activity found between theoretical and real values offlavonoid combina-tions in different concentration ratios.As can be observed,the interaction among epicatechin and quercetin-3-glucoside showed the highest antioxidant activity in every ratio.The other combina-tions with high synergistic effects were epicatechin with myricetin, quercetin with quercetin-3-glucoside and catechin with quercetin-3-glucoside.This last interaction is shown in Fig.2where the real FRAP value was higher than that calculated theoretically for each flavonoid assayed in different concentration ratios.In the case of the combination of peonidina-3-glucoside a significant synergistic effect was only found when the two compounds were mixed in a isomolar ratio wile no effect was found at all the other ratios assayed.Likewise,there were other interactions that enhanced the anti-oxidant activity in solution,indicating a synergistic effect,as for in-stance in the case of pelargonidin with quercetin,myricetin with quercetin-3-glucoside,cyanidin-3-glucoside with quercetin-3-glu-coside,malvidin-3-glucoside with quercetin-3-glucoside and quer-cetin,or quercetin with catechin and epicatechin.In view of these results,it appears that theflavonols quercetin and quercetin-3-glucoside trigger a noticeable increase in antioxi-dant activity when mixed in solution with anotherflavonoid.The comparison of quercetin and quercetin-3-glucoside demonstrated that blocking the3-hydroxyl group in the C-ring of quercetin while retaining the30,40-dihydroxy structure in the B-ring did not de-crease the antioxidant power of this compound using the FRAP method.Furthermore,in contrast with what was shown in the DPPHÅassay,quercetin-3-glucoside promoted the most important synergistic effects in the majority of the interactions.Apart from this,we also found that there was an important antagonistic interaction when we paired myricetin with quercetin, in a ratio1:1.The activity obtained was significantly lower than the sum of the individual values and as a result,this antagonistic effect represented a decrease of antioxidant activity of about9%.In addition to the aforementioned interaction,we also found another two antagonistic effects,although in these cases,the de-crease in antioxidant activity was less important.In thefirst case, antagonism took place when mixing peonidin-3-glucoside and malvidin-3-glucoside,corresponding with anthocyanins,which contain the30-OMe and the30-and50-OMe groups in the B-ring, respectively.In the second case,it occurred between peonidin-3-glucoside and delphinidin-3-glucoside.In agreement with other authors(Rice-Evans et al.,1996),the insertion of methoxyl groups in the B-ring does not enhance antioxidant capacity when the study is carried out with individual standards,however other stud-ies(Rivero-Pérez et al.,2008)showed that methoxyl derivates in-creased antioxidant efficiency when interactions among pigments were considered.These results indicate thatflavonoid interactions,in general, increase antioxidant activity when assayed by the FRAP method. Although the values obtained from each method showed significative differences,these differences could probably be ex-plained on the basis of the chemical nature and reactivity of theTable2Difference in antioxidant activity between real and theoretical values for selected combination in different ratios as measured by FRAP method.Combinations Molar ratio3:12:11:11:21:3CAT+Q28.14±13.726.4±9.034.1±10.636.7±3.133.7±11.2 CAT+Q-3-G32.7±8.448.6±14.049.4±8.247.7±9.151.1±6.7 CY+Q-3-G19.9±8.623.6±6.535.7±3.333.0±4.523.3±5.4 ECAT+MY45.0±2.245.0±2.252.9±7.348.4±1.745.8±5.3 ECAT+Q-3-G56.3±5.756.0±7.667.7±9.367.7±9.655.7±5.4 ECAT+Q26.9±2.522.0±1.325.8±1.418.3±1,719.1±9.6 MV+Q18.2±1.614.2±7.020.5±5.010.7±2.18.7±6.7 MV+Q-3-G27.1±4.137.0±5.535.3±2.230.8±6.427.8±5.6 MY+QÀ30.8±5.7À53.7±5.6À60.4±10.0À52.1±8.5À43.7±8.3 MY+Q-3-G38.7±9.336.6±8.435.1±2.035.4±4.038.3±3.0 P+CY 2.3±6.1 1.7±8.410.5±6.4À0.7±9.7À0.8±3.9 P+DP 4.9±3.2À5.2±5.9À5.2±1.6À2.0±4.9À0.5±1.1 P+ECAT8.3±4.28.8±2.69.7±4.411.8±3.59.5±3.4 P+K12.8±1.8À0.5±1.90.1±4.60.9±6.413.4±1.0 P+MV 1.2±4.5À5.3±0.3À9.3±1.8À6.8±1.8À7.5±1.9 PG+Q23.8±5.222.4±3.237.9±5.713.0±2.327.4±4.3 Q+Q-3-G33.4±10.535.6±5.537.8±7.719.2±5.613.4±12.8Peonidin-3-O-glucoside(P),cyanidin-3-O-glucoside(CY),delphinidin-3-O-glucoside(DP),malvidin-3-O-glucoside(MV),pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside(PG),catechin(CAT), epicatechin(ECAT),kaempferol(K),myricetin(MY),quercetin(Q),and quercetin-3-b-glucoside(Q-3-G).Synergistic and antagonistic effect of the combinations assayed in different ratios were calculated by obtaining the differences between the real value,obtained experi-mentally,and the theoretical value obtained as the sum of the added concentration of both compound by using the following equation:Difference in FRAP antioxidant activity=mixture FRAP valueÀ[(A FRAP valueÂA concentration)+(B FRAP valueÂB concentration).Positive values are synergisms and negative values antagonisms.M.Hidalgo et al./Food Chemistry121(2010)691–696695。
脑出血后血肿周围水肿形成机制的研究进展

山东医药2021年第61卷第2期脑出血后血肿周围水肿形成机制的研究进展范敬争,姜玉艳天津医科大学总医院,天津300052摘要:血肿周围水肿的形成是脑出血后二次脑损伤发生的关键因素,与脑出血患者的生存预后紧密相关。
脑出血后,血管源性因素(血块的形成及回缩、血肿周围静水压的下降、血浆蛋白的外渗)、炎症反应、凝血级联反应、红细胞溶解产物、补体成分等参与了脑出血后血肿周围水肿的形成和发展,造成了神经功能进一步恶化,使脑细胞发生不可逆损伤。
因此,抑制脑出血后血肿周围水肿的形成可使脑出血患者获益。

我国是脑出血的高发国家,每年由于各种原因导致的脑出血患者超过150万,且呈逐年增高的趋势[1]。
临床上单纯解决脑出血的占位效应不能明显改善脑出血患者的预后,因此,脑出血后二次脑损伤的产生和发展是影响患者疗效和预后的关键因素。
二次脑损伤包括血肿周围水肿的形成及神经细胞的缺失、变性或死亡,而血肿周围水肿是二次脑损伤发生的关键因素。
动物实验表明,血肿周围水肿量起初增长很轻微,2h后开始增多,3~4d达到高峰,随后水肿缓慢下降,直到出血后7d仍然存在[2]。
脑出血后血肿周围水肿的演变分为三个阶段:第一阶段,发生在出血最初几小时,这个过程包括血块回缩、静水压下降导致血浆渗出到血肿周围形成血管源性水肿,其同时造成血肿周围的脑血流量轻微下降,进而引起血块周围暂时性缺血;第二阶段,发生在出血之后的24~48h,此阶段主要是炎症反应及凝血酶激活引起的细胞毒性水肿,其直接造成血脑屏障破坏、脑组织代谢活性降低及随后的脑血流量下降;第三阶段,发生在出血3d后,此阶段主要是红细胞溶解破坏和血红蛋白毒性引起的延迟期水肿,其所诱导的神经毒性等血液成分同时能造成神经损伤。

Introduction
Free radicals play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of several human diseases, such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis and various neurodegenerative and pulmonary diseases [1]. Antioxidants protect against radicals and are therefore important tools in obtaining and preserving health. In the recent years the study of the antioxidant activity of many natural products has become a growing interest point for the scientific community. It is widely recognized that the

Abstract The antioxidant or pro-oxidant activity of some dietary phenolic compounds has been determined by their reducing activity over Fe3+ and Cu2+. The FRAP method has shown that phenolic acids exert a high reducing activity that give rise to a decrease in linoleic acid oxidaБайду номын сангаасion mediated by Fe3+, measured as TBARS. However, the reducing activity of phenolic compounds over Cu2+ leads to linoleic acid oxidation. Reducing capability against copper has been measured by a new approach called CRAI (Copper Reducing Activity Index), and results agreed with the degree of hydroxylation of the studied compounds. Sensibility and reproducibility of the method have been checked by measuring the inter-day and intra-day variation (1.08 and 1.89%, respectively). Possible pro-oxidant activity of phenolic compounds should be considered when the overall antioxidant activity in Cu naturally rich or Cu-enriched foodstuffs for dietetic purposes has to be evaluated.

which are naturally rich in copper, such as chocolate, nuts and meats [15], since copper is mainly present in foodstuffs as Cu2+. In this way, the present work was aimed at studying the copper reducing ability of certain phenolic compounds and other antioxidants such as ascorbic acid and trolox, used as reference, as good models to evaluate the antioxidative status of food samples. In addition, antioxidant or pro-oxidant activity has been measured over linoleic acid oxidation and the classical FRAP method.
A well-established method frequently used to assess the antioxidant properties of natural compounds is the inhibition of lipid peroxidation [9]. The use of commercially accessible individual compounds provides the repeatability of determination in any laboratory. Among individual fatty acids, methyl linoleate and linoleic acid are the most used. These compounds are relatively inexpensive and their oxidation is quite representative of the most essential features of biologically relevant lipid peroxidation [10].
