چکیده
Abstract Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising cancer treatment with fewer side effects, and it eliminates tumors in target tissues reactive oxygen species produced by photosensitizers (PS) light. In this study, we isolated methyl pheophorbide A, which induces photodynamic cell death the U937 SK-HEP-1 cells, from perilla leaves. Its potential as material for development of new PS was also evaluated. The A dark green porphyrin compound methanol extract Apoptosis occurred treated irradiated light, there no significant change where light not treated. both apoptotic body, vesicle formation, DNA ladder were confirmed light-irradiated. caspase-3/7 activity an important factor apoptosis, 101.50 ± 14.24% when 0.25 μg/ml U937, 91.32 16.23% 1.00 cells. phenomenon appeared more strongly concentration increased irradiating This study demonstrates isolation, identification, phototoxic We expect that will be useful search candidates using natural products.

Bioassay-Guided Isolation and Identification of Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitory Constituents from the Leaves of Perilla frutescens.
Activity-directed fractionation and purification processes were employed to identify xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory compounds from the leaves of Perilla frutescens. The total extract was evaluated in vitro on XO inhibitory activity and in vivo in an experimental model with potassium oxonate-induced hyperuricemia in mice which was used to evaluate anti-hyperuricemic activity. The crude extract...

The nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-antioxidant response element (ARE) pathway is a cellular defense system against oxidative stress. Activation of this pathway increases expression of antioxidant enzymes. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that the consumption of fruits and vegetables is associated with reduced risk of contracting a variety of human diseases. The aim ...
متن کاملRapid Identification of Aldose Reductase Inhibitory Compounds from Perilla frutescens
The ethyl acetate (EtOAc) soluble fraction of methanol extracts of Perilla frutescens (P. frutescens) inhibits aldose reductase (AR), the key enzyme in the polyol pathway. Our investigation of inhibitory compounds from the EtOAc soluble fraction of P. frutescens was followed by identification of the inhibitory compounds by a combination of HPLC microfractionation and a 96-well enzyme assay. Thi...
متن کاملAnti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects of luteolin from Perilla (P. frutescens L.) leaves.
Perilla (Perilla frutescens L.) leaves have shown therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of inflammatory disorders, allergies, bronchial asthma, and systemic damage due to free radicals. In the present study we analyzed the active constituents in perilla leaves using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and isolated luteolin, a polyphenolic flavonoid. We investigated the anti-inflammato...

cDNA cloning of a monoterpene synthase from Perilla frutescens whose steam-distilled oil contains 92.9% perillaketone, was performed by the PCR method using primers designed based on limonene synthase. The full-length nucleotide sequence of this cDNA consisted of 1978 bp including a 1827-bp translational region encoding a deduced protein of 608 amino acids, which was similar to that of limonene...
