Seong, Su Hui published the artcileMoracin derivatives from Morus Radix as dual BACE1 and cholinesterase inhibitors with antioxidant and anti-glycation capacities, Related Products of benzofurans, the publication is Life Sciences (2018), 20-28, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Morus, a member of the family Moraceae and commonly known as the mulberry, comprises a pharmaceutically important plant group whose major constituents are the moracins. We designed the current study to explore the anti-AD activity of moracin derivatives via in vitro inhibition of BACE1 and cholinesterase, their antioxidant activity via scavenging ONOO^– and ABTS·⁺ radicals, and their anti-diabetic activity through inhibition of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) formation. Moreover, to define the mechanism of action of moracin derivatives in depth, we performed in silico mol. modeling using a computer-assisted drug design and modeling program. Among the four Morus-derived moracins tested, moracin S, which has a prenyl moiety in the 2-aryl benzofuran scaffold, possessed the highest BACE1 inhibitory activity. It also, in a dose-dependent fashion, decreased ONOO^–-mediated bovine serum albumin (BSA) nitration and formation of AGEs and amyloid cross-beta structures in the glycated BSA system, and it showed notable radical scavenging activity. In addition, enzyme kinetic and mol. docking studies demonstrated that moracin S is a potent, competitive BACE1 inhibitor that could interact with key catalytic aspartyl residues. The prenyl moiety in the 2-aryl benzofuran structure plays a crucial role in inhibition of BACE1. These in vitro and in silico results provide valuable information for the design of anti-AD drugs.

Bouarfa, Salima published the artcileCopper- and Cobalt-Catalyzed Syntheses of Thiophene-Based Tertiary Amines, HPLC of Formula: 69626-75-1, the publication is European Journal of Organic Chemistry (2019), 2019(20), 3244-3258, database is CAplus.

Thienylzinc halides and related compounds prepared by deprotonation followed by transmetalation were used in copper-catalyzed amination using N-benzoyloxy secondary amines. By extending the reaction to 1,5-naphthyridine, it was showed that the competitive dimer formation observed in the case of thiophenes was linked with the low stability of some thienylamines rather than homocoupling. Interestingly, thienylzinc halides and related compounds prepared by transmetalation of thienylmagnesium halides, either prepared from their bromo-precursors or generated by deprotometalation, were satisfactorily employed in cobalt-catalyzed aminations. Finally, aminothiophenes were involved in copper-catalyzed mono- and di-N-arylations, affording differently substituted di- and triphenylamines.

Rottman, Claudio published the artcileSurfactant-Induced Modification of Dopants Reactivity in Sol-Gel Matrixes, Related Products of benzofurans, the publication is Journal of the American Chemical Society (1999), 121(37), 8533-8543, database is CAplus.

Organically and bio-organically doped sol-gel materials have attracted much attention due to their ability to reproduce solution mol. activities within the ceramic environment. We take now this methodol. one step forward and explore conditions under which the dopant properties can be modified by the matrix. Specifically we report that the co-entrapment of the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB, the modifier) at low concentrations, with an extensive series of pH indicators representing several key mol. families (the primary dopant) within tetramethoxysilane (TMOS)-derived silica sol-gel matrixes, greatly modifies the indicating performance of the primary dopant. Thus, very large pK_i shifts of up to 3-4 orders of magnitude obtained upon the co-entrapment cause methyl orange (MO) to become an indicator for higher acidities and phenolphthalein for higher basicities, compared to their solution behavior. In another example, the ΔpK_i between the two indicating transitions of alizarin increased from ∼4.5 pH units in solution to ∼10.5 pH units (!) in the glass, transforming it into an indicator for both the high acidic and high basic pH ranges. In yet another example, the two indicating transitions of phenol red were shifted to a more acidic pH range, pushing the tail of the more acidic titration branch into the neg. pH values range. These and other effects were found to be more pronounced by the co-entrapment than by the use of CTAB solutions or of sol-gel matrixes without CTAB, pointing to a synergetic effect between the surfactant and the silica cage. The indicators also proved highly sensitive in revealing the properties of the local environment created by the surfactant. Thus, the indicator mols. were shown to migrate and reorient within the hydrophobic and the hydrophilic regions of micellar environment, according to their acquired charge upon pH changes. The concentration-dependent and humidity-dependent surfactant aggregation processes within the silica cage were probed with MO, and the results were compared with the behavior of entrapped MO in sol-gel matrixes of varying hydrophobicities, obtained by the copolymerization of CH₃Si(OCH₃)₃ with TMOS at various ratios, with and without CTAB. Of practical importance have been the observations that the dopant/surfactant co-entrapment greatly improves the leaching profiles: half-lives, ranging from several months to several years, were found for MO and methyl red; and using SAXS, surface area and porosity measurements, it was shown that CTAB can be used to stabilize the microscopic structure of the material upon heat-drying. This provides a potential solution to the problem of continuing structural changes, which take place with sol-gel materials long after the completion of their synthesis.

A Case Study on Morus alba, Category: benzofurans, the publication is Phytochemical Analysis (2017), 28(2), 125-131, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Introduction : In drug discovery, bioassay-guided isolation is a well-established procedure, and still the basic approach for the discovery of natural products with desired biol. properties. However, in these procedures, the most laborious and time-consuming step is the isolation of the bioactive constituents. A prior identification of the compounds that contribute to the demonstrated activity of the fractions would enable the selection of proper chromatog. techniques and lead to targeted isolation. Objective : The development of an integrated HPTLC-based methodol. for the rapid tracing of the bioactive compounds during bioassay-guided processes, using multivariate statistics. Materials and Methods – The methanol extract of Morus alba was fractionated employing CPC. Subsequently, fractions were assayed for tyrosinase inhibition and analyzed with HPTLC. PLS-R algorithm was performed in order to correlate the anal. data with the biol. response of the fractions and identify the compounds with the highest contribution. Two methodologies were develop generation. Results and Discussion – Both methodologies afforded comparable results and were able to trace the bioactive constituents. The suggested compounds were compared terms of R_f values and UV spectra with compounds isolated from M. alba using typical bioassay-guided process. Conclusion : Chemometric tools supported the development of a novel HPTLC-based methodol. for the tracing of tyrosinase inhibitors in M. alba extract

Jing, Wanghui published the artcileMori Cortex regulates P-glycoprotein in Caco-2 cells and colons from rats with experimental colitis via direct and gut microbiota-mediated mechanisms, Safety of 5-(6-Hydroxybenzofuran-2-yl)benzene-1,3-diol, the publication is RSC Advances (2017), 7(5), 2594-2605, database is CAplus.

P-Glycoprotein dysregulation and microbial imbalance have been implicated in inflammatory bowel diseases. Here we found that oral dosing of Mori Cortex, the root bark of Morus alba L. markedly alleviated inflammatory responses, reinstated microbial balance, and enhanced P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression in rat colitis (UC) induced by oral administration of dextran sulfate sodium. The effects of Mori Cortex extract (MCE) on colon P-gp were examined using Caco-2 cells which revealed a time-dependent regulatory profile. The distinct effects on P-gp by individual main components may account for the direct biphasic effects of MCE. The involvement of gut microbiota in P-gp regulation by MCE was assessed by incubating the culture supernatant (CS) of fecal bacteria from normal, UC or MCE pretreated rats with Caco-2 cells. Interestingly, compared to normal CS, UC CS but not MCE CS diminished P-gp expression in Caco-2 cells, and this down-regulation could be reversed by pretreatment of Caco-2 cells with MCE. Moreover, MCE CS treated Caco-2 cells generated proinflammatory IL-1β and IL-8 comparable to that of the normal group and lower than the UC group, whereas, the anti-inflammatory IL-10 stimulated by MCE CS was significantly higher than the UC CS. In conclusion, MCE alleviated colitis-like symptoms and enhanced the intestinal epithelial integrity (P-gp up-regulation) in exptl. colitis. The mechanisms involve both a direct effect and a gut microbiota-mediated pathway.
