RESUMO
Pinobanksin, as one of the flavonoids, has powerful biological activities but has been under-recognized. In this study, we optimized the extraction method of phragmites from peony seed shells by using organic solvent extraction. The yield of PSMS was 10.54 ± 0.13% under the conditions of ethanol volume fraction 70%, extraction temperature 70°C, material-liquid ratio 1:25 g/mL, and extraction time 60 min; the optimized PSMS could be effectively separated in S-8 macroporous resin coupled with C18. The relative content of PSMS was increased from 0.42% in PSMS to 92.53% after C18 purification; the antioxidant activity test revealed that pinobanksin could exert antioxidant ability by binding catalase (CAT) enzyme. Second, it was found that pinobanksin could effectively inhibit the proliferation of SH-SY5Y cells, mainly by binding to BCL2-associated X (BAX), B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2), and cyclin-dependent Kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) to produce more hydrogen bonds to inhibit their activities. This study confirms the medicinal potential of pinobanksin and provides the basis for the proper understanding of pinobanksin and the development of related products.
RESUMO
In this study, we investigated the antioxidant properties of dry-cured beef crude peptide (BPH) at different storage periods. The combination characteristics of different concentrations of Phe-Asp-Gly-Asp-Phe (FDGDF) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) at different temperatures were analyzed by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and FT-IR spectroscopy, combined with the detection of a SOD activity detection box. It was found that FDGDF could improve the activity of SOD by changing its secondary structure. Bonds were formed at O32/O40/O52 using quantum chemical simulation calculations, and the Fukui index was higher than that of most atoms, indicating that these atoms were more likely to participate in the reaction. SPR biological force analysis showed that FDGDF and SOD were in a fast binding and dissociation mode. This study revealed the theoretical basis for studying the antioxidant mechanism of dry-cured beef and provided ideas for developing new dry-cured beef products.
