RESUMO
Chemical investigation on chloroform extract of Phlogacanthus turgidus led to the isolation of one new compound namely turgidol, together with five known triterpenoids, lupeol, lupenone, betulin, betulinic acid, and taraxerol. Their structures and stereochemistry have been determined by 1 D and 2 D NMR analysis, high resolution mass spectrometry, and compared with those in literatures. The relative configuration of turgidol was defined using DFT-NMR chemical shift calculations and subsequent DP4+ probability method. Turgidol, betulin, and betulinic acid were evaluated for cytotoxic activity toward K562 cancer cell line and the alpha-glucosidase inhibition.

RESUMO
Seven flavonoid glycosides were isolated from the aerial portions of Mussaenda recurvata during a phytochemical analysis. This comprised one novel component, ecurvoside, and six well-studied compounds, namely astragalin, isoquercitrin, nicotiflorin, rutin, hesperidin, and neohesperidin. The chemical structures of compounds were identified using spectroscopic techniques and a comparison with previously published studies. Alpha-glucosidase inhibition testing was carried out on all isolated compounds. The compounds evaluated have IC50 values between 35.6 and 239.1 g mL-1, indicating a moderate degree of inhibition. In vitro antimicrobial activities of compounds 1-7 have screened against the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Streptococcus faecalis (Strep. faecalis), and fungi: Candida albicans (C. albicans), Trichophyton mentagrophytes (T. mentagrophytes), and Microsporum gypseum (M. gypseum), where compound 6 showed excellent activity against fungi T. mentagrophytes with an MIC value of 12.5 µM. In accordance with the molecular docking study, ecurvoside (1) or pose 472 interacted well with the 3TOP enzyme: PDB and the molecular dynamic simulations proved that the complex of ecurvoside and 3TOP has a stable simulation time of 50-100 ns and the significant residual amino acids in 3TOP are relative to interactions more than one time such as Asp 960, Glu 961, Lys 1088, Glu 1095, Arg 1097, Gly 1102, Thr 1103, Gln 1109, Glu 1178: A chain and Glu 1095, Thr 1101, and Asp 1107: B chain. The docking studies of compounds 1-7 to the enzyme 2VF5 explain the general mechanism to inhibit bacteria and proved that compound 6 (pose 370) inhibited stronger than compound 7 (pose 362) and compound 5 (pose 280), and compounds 1 to 4 do not interact well with 2VF5.
RESUMO
The coffea canephora husk, a protected agricultural crop, is abundant in Vietnam. Examining the effects of C. canephora husk compounds on α-glucosidase and antifungal drug activity was the primary objective of this research. A cholestane-type steroid, coffeacanol A (1), was extracted from the ethyl acetate extract. Three cholestane-type derivatives (2-4) and three additional known compounds (5-7) were separated, and we used a variety of chromatographic techniques to identify a total of six substances. We used NMR to determine the chemical structures of these substances. Extensive HR-MS-ESI analysis and NMR experimental data were used to confirm the structure of the novel metabolite (1). The cholestane-type steroid was initially discovered in the Coffea canephora husk, marking the first instance in the coffee plant family to reveal chemical structures (1-7). The inhibition of α-glucosidase was found to be significantly higher in all compounds tested, with the exception of compounds (2) and (5). In vitro, the positive control showed the lowest inhibition, and the range of IC50 values was calculated to be 27.4 to 96.5 µM, which is lower than the IC50 value of 214.50 µM for the acarbose control. With an IC50 value of 27.4 µM, compound (7) showed the greatest capacity to inhibit α-glucosidase among the test compounds. The 3TOP and 2VF5 enzyme crystal structures were used for in silico docking investigations and validations of compounds (1-7). In silico calculations to explain how compound (7) shows high activity in vitro via the enzyme inhibition mechanism by residual amino acids, like Gly 1102 (B chain) and Glu 1095 (B chain), and their relative interaction with compounds (7) and acarbose. Compound (7) exhibited the best antifungal activity against Candida albicans fungus among three fungi, namely Candida albicans, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and Trichophyton rubrum, with a MIC value of 25 µM. Compound (7) and fluconazole combined to form similar interactions in the contact ligand model, including the functional group, capping group, and linker part, which interacted fully with the 2VF5 enzyme, leading to effective in vitro inhibition.
RESUMO
Twelve compounds were isolated from Mussaenda saigonensis aerial parts through phytochemical analysis and the genus Mussaenda is the first place where the compounds 4-6 and 11-12 have been found. Based on the ability to inhibit NO production in RAW264.7 cells, compound 2 has demonstrated the strongest anti-inflammatory activity in vitro with an IC50 of 7.6 µM, as opposed to L-NMMA's IC50 of 41.3 µM. Compound 12 was found to be the most effective inhibitor of alpha-glucosidase enzyme in vitro, with an IC50 value of 42.4 µM (compared to 168 µM for acarbose). Compounds 1-12 were evaluated in vitro for antimicrobial activity using the paper dish method. Compound 11 demonstrated strong antifungal activity against M. gypseum with a MIC value of 50 µM. In silico docking for antimicrobial activity, pose 90 or compound 11 docked well to the 2VF5 enzyme, PDB, which explains why compound 11 had the highest activity in vitro. Entry 2/pose 280 demonstrated excellent anti-inflammatory activity in silico. The stability of the complex between pose 280 and the 4WCU enzyme for anti-inflammatory activity has been assessed using molecular dynamics over a simulation course ranging from 0 to 100 ns. It has been found to be stable from 60 and 100 ns. The Tyr 159 (95%, H-bond via water bridge), Asp 318 (200%, multiple contacts), Met 273 (75%, hydrophobic interaction via water bridge), and Gln 369 (75%, H-bond via water bridge) interacted well within the time range of 0 to 100 ns. It has more hydrophilic or polar pharmacokinetics.
RESUMO
The current study describes the chemical identification, antimicrobial, and mosquito larvicidal activities of essential oils from Meistera caudata and Conamomum vietnamense, growing in Vietnam. Essential oils were extracted from the leaves and rhizomes, and characterized by the GC-FID/MS (gas chromatography-flame ionization detection/mass spectrometry) analysis. Monoterpenes (33.1-89.2â¯%) were the main chemical class found in these oils. ß-Pinene (30.8â¯%) and α-pinene (23.8â¯%) were two major compounds in M. caudata leaf oil. C. vietnamense leaf and rhizome essential oils were dominated by 1,8-cineole (47.9-62.0â¯%) and limonene (10.3-16.2â¯%). With the same MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) value of 25⯵g/mL, C. vietnamense leaf and rhizome essential oils strongly inhibited the growth of Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6501, respectively. For 24 and 48-h treatments, C. vietnamense leaf essential oil strongly controlled the growth of mosquito Aedes aegypti with the respective LC50 values of 7.67 and 6.73⯵g/mL, and the respective LC90 values of 13.37 and 10.83⯵g/mL. In the same manner, C. vietnamense rhizome essential oil also showed strong mosquito larvicidal activity against Aedes albopictus with the LC50 values of 12.37 and 12.00⯵g/mL, and the LC90 values of 20.56 and 18.58⯵g/mL, respectively. C. vietnamense essential essential oils containing a high amount of 1,8-cineole are generally better than M. caudata essential essential oils in both two biological assays.

Bioactive-guided investigation of the aerial parts of Mussaenda recurvata Naiki, Tagane, and Yahara (Rubiaceae) led to the isolation of four triterpenes, including two new triterpenes recurvatanes A and B (1 and 2), along with two known compounds 3ß,6ß,23-trihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid (3) and 3ß,6ß,19α,23-tetrahydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid (4). The chemical structures of the compounds were identified from spectroscopic data and by comparison with the literature. A comprehensive review of NMR data of the oleanane-type triterpenes bearing 3-hydroxy and 4-hydroxymethylene groups indicated the characteristic spectroscopic features in this series. Compounds 1-4 were evaluated for the inhibitory NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Compounds 2 and 3 showed a moderate reduction of nitrite accumulation with IC50 values of 55.63 ± 2.52 and 60.08 ± 3.17 µM, respectively. Molecular docking model dedicated to compound 3 or pose 420, which is the best candidate among docking poses of compounds 1-4 interacted well with the crystal structure of enzyme 4WCU: PDB. The best ligand molecule, pose 420 in terms of binding energy obtained from docking studies on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for 100 ns exhibited non-bonding interactions with the protein and remained stable inside the active site.
RESUMO
We present the in situ synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) through ionotropic gelation utilizing the biodegradable saccharides lactose (Lac) and alginate (Alg). The lactose reduced silver ions to form AgNPs. The crystallite structure of the nanocomposite AgNPs@Lac/Alg, with a mean size of 4-6 nm, was confirmed by analytical techniques. The nanocomposite exhibited high catalytic performance in degrading the pollutants methyl orange and rhodamine B. The antibacterial activity of the nanocomposite is pH-dependent, related to the alterations in surface properties of the nanocomposite at different pH values. At pH 6, the nanocomposite demonstrated the highest antibacterial activity. These findings suggest that this nanocomposite has the potential to be tailored for specific applications in environmental and medicinal treatments, making it a highly promising material.
