(Bmc, 2023) Bakac, Mehmet Salih; Dogan, Abdulahad; Yilmaz, Mustafa Abdullah; Altindag, Fikret; Donmez, Fatih; Battal, Abdulhamit
BackgroundsScutellaria Pinnatifida subsp. pichleri (Stapf) Rech.f. (SP) is used in folk medicine for the treatment of diabetes. The aim of the study was to determine the phenolic profile of SP extract (SPE) by LC-MS/MS and to investigate the antidiabetic, hepatoprotective and nephroprotective effects of SPE in streptozotosin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat model.MethodsForty-two rats were randomly divided into six groups (n = 7): Control (nondiabetic), diabetes mellitus (DM), DM + SP-100 (diabetic rats treated with SPE, 100 mg/kg/day), DM + SP-200 (diabetic rats treated with SPE, 200 mg/kg/day), DM + SP-400 (diabetic rats treated with SPE, 400 mg/kg/day) and DM + Gly-3 (diabetic rats treated with glibenclamide, 3 mg/kg/day). Live body weight, fasting blood glucose (FBG) level, antidiabetic, serum biochemical and lipid profile parameters, antioxidant defense system, malondyaldehyde (MDA) and histopathological examinations in liver, kidney and pancreas were evaluated.ResultsApigenin, luteolin, quinic acid, cosmosiin and epigallocatechin were determined to be the major phenolic compounds in the SPE. Administration of the highest dose of SP extract (400 mg/kg) resulted in a significant reduction in FBG levels and glycosylated hemoglobin levels in STZ-induced diabetic rats, indicating an antihyperglycemic effect. SPE (200 and 400 mg/kg) and glibenclamide significantly improved MDA in liver and kidney tissues. In addition, SPE contributed to the struggle against STZ-induced oxidative stress by stimulating antioxidant defense systems. STZ induction negatively affected liver, kidney and pancreas tissues according to histopathological findings. Treatment with 400 mg/kg and glibenclamide attenuated these negative effects.ConclusionsIn conclusion, the extract of the aerial part of Scutellaria pinnatifida subsp. pichleri has hepatoprotective, nephroprotective and insulin secretion stimulating effects against STZ-induced diabetes and its complications due to its antidiabetic and antioxidant phytochemicals such as apigenin, luteolin, quinic acid, cosmosiin and epigallocatechin.

(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015) Ertas, Abdulselam; Yilmaz, Mustafa Abdullah; Firat, Mehmet
In this study, it was aimed to investigate the chemical composition and antioxidant activities of two Euphorbia species. The major component of the fatty acid compositions obtained from the petroleum ether extracts was identified as palmitic acid for Euphorbia gaillardotii and Euphorbia macroclada. The main constituents of the essential oils were identified as arachidic acid for E. gaillardotii and tetratetracontane for E. macroclada. Among the 27 studied compounds, hesperidin, rutin, hyperoside and quinic, malic, gallic and tannic acids were found to be the most abundant compounds in the two Euphorbia species. The methanol extracts of E. gaillardotii and E. macroclada showed strong antioxidant activity in all tested methods. Particularly, IC50 values of E. macroclada methanol extract that was the richest in terms of total phenolic-flavonoid contents were found to be lower than alpha-tocopherol and butylated hydroxytoluene in beta-carotene bleaching, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free and ABTS cation radical scavenging methods.

The use of Salvia species among the public and their importance in the scientific world increase due to their numerous pharmacological and biological activities on a daily basis. In this study, the phytochemical contents of different parts (root, branch, leaf, flower, whole) of different specimens of Salvia siirtica (SS) (in vivo and in vitro) extracts prepared with various solvents (petroleumether, chloroformand ethanol) were determined using different techniques (GC-MS and LC-MS/MS) and the results were compared. In addition, biological activities (antioxidant, cytotoxic, anticholinesterase antiurease, antityrosinase, antielastase and anticollagenase) of all samples were determined and compared. The antioxidant potential of the analysed samples was found to be high, and their enzyme activity potential was low. Besides, in vitro SS-TIS (Temporary Immersion System) sample showed high cytotoxic activity (viability% 2.12 +/- 0.06) against MCF-7 (breast cancer) cell line. The results of GC-MS and LC-MS/MS analyses indicated that ferruginol and sugiol could be isolated from the ethanol extract of S. siirtica roots, salvigenin and beta-sitosterol from the chloroform extract of the aerial parts, and phenolic compounds from the ethanol extract of the aerial parts. In addition, the amount of rosmarinic acid, caffeic acid and 12-demethylmulticauline of in vitro samples were found to be higher than those of in vivo samples. Furthermore, all samples, both in vivo and in vitro, contained high levels of rosmarinic acid and beta-sitosterol. The whole chloroform extract (SSWC) could be the source extract for salvigenin (33952.13 mu g/g) and beta-sitosterol (16369.71 mu g/g), and the root ethanol extract (SSRE) for ferruginol (17721.99 mu g/g). As a result, it is understood that the nature of the plant material, the choice of an appropriate solvent and the parts of the material used are quite effective in chemical content. S. siirtica promise potential natural antioxidant agent in food and/or pharmaceutical industry due to its phytochemical content (rosmarinic and caffeic acids, ferruginol, salvigenin) and antioxidant activity.

(Mdpi, 2023) Karagecili, Hasan; Yilmaz, Mustafa Abdullah; Erturk, Adem; Kiziltas, Hatice; Guven, Leyla; Alwasel, Saleh H.; Gulcin, Ilhami
Propolis is a complex natural compound that honeybees obtain from plants and contributes to hive safety. It is rich in phenolic and flavonoid compounds, which contain antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties. In this study, the chemical composition and antioxidant activities of propolis were investigated; ABTS(center dot+), DPPH center dot and DMPD center dot+ were prepared using radical scavenging antioxidant methods. The phenolic and flavonoid contents of propolis were 53 mg of gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g and 170.164 mg of quercetin equivalent (QE)/g, respectively. The ferric ion (Fe3+) reduction, CUPRAC and FRAP reduction capacities were also studied. The antioxidant and reducing capacities of propolis were compared with those of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), alpha-tocopherol and Trolox reference standards. The half maximal inhibition concentration (IC50) values of propolis for ABTS(center dot+), DPPH center dot and DMPD center dot+ scavenging activities were found to be 8.15, 20.55 and 86.64 mu g/mL, respectively. Propolis extract demonstrated IC50 values of 3.7, 3.4 and 19.6 mu g/mL against alpha-glycosidase, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and carbonic anhydrase II (hCA II) enzyme, respectively. These enzymes' inhibition was associated with diabetes, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and glaucoma. The reducing power, antioxidant activity and enzyme inhibition capacity of propolis extract were comparable to those demonstrated by the standards. Twenty-eight phenolic compounds, including acacetin, caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid, naringenin, chrysin, quinic acid, quercetin, and ferulic acid, were determined by LC-MS/MS to be major organic compounds in propolis. The polyphenolic antioxidant-rich content of the ethanol extract of propolis appears to be a natural product that can be used in the treatment of diabetes, AD, glaucoma, epilepsy, and cancerous diseases.

The use of Thymus species amongst the public and their importance in the scientific world is increasing day by day. In addition to being consumed as tea and spice, Thymus species are used as folk medicine for respiratory, digestive, skin, circulatory, genital, nervous, visual and urinary diseases. In this study, it was aimed to examine the essential oil and ethanol extract of the root and aerial parts of Thymus pubescens Boiss. et Kotschy ex Celak in the terms of their biological activity and chemical content. The phenolic content of the species was determined by LC-MS/MS, while triterpenoid content, the chemical composition of the essential oil as well as flavour was determined by GC-MS. In addition, their antioxidant and cytotoxic activities, as well as acetyl- (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), urease, tyrosinase, elastase, collagenase, HMG-CoA reductase and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities were studied. Thymol (53.33%) was determined as the major component in the essential oil, while b-fenchyl alcohol (43.87%) was determined as the major component of the flavour. According to the LC-MS/MS and GC-MS results, it was found that especially the aerial parts of the species have a high amount of rosmarinic acid (3875.76 mg analyte/g extract), quinic acid (2392.55), naringenin (970.39), oleanolic (92785.96) and ursolic (63373.32) acids. The essential oil of T. pubescens species was observed to show high activity in four antioxidant assays, e.g. inhibition of lipid peroxidation, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity as well as CUPRAC, while the ethanol extracts showed moderate antioxidant activity. In enzyme inhibition assays, the aerial parts exerted marked BChE, elastase, and collagenase inhibitory activities (92.43 +/- 1.28%, 42.59 +/- 0.56, and 48.61 +/- 0.39 at 100 mg/mL, respectively). On the other hand, AChE, urease, tyrosinase, HMG-CoA reductase and ACE inhibitory activities of all extracts were from low to moderate levels. In particular, the aerial parts of the species displayed a high cytotoxic effect (vitality%: 6.82 +/- 0.01 at 200 mg/mL) in breast cancer (MCF-7) cell line. Due to its remarkable antioxidant capacity, high content of rosmarinic, oleanolic, and ursolic acids and especially BChE, elastase, and collagenase inhibitory activity, T. pubescens has the potential for using in food supplements, food preservatives, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries.(c) 2022 SAAB.

(Taylor & Francis inc, 2024) Akdeniz, Mehmet; Yigitkan, Serkan; Yilmaz, Mustafa Abdullah; Yener, Ismail; Varhan Oral, Elif; Firat, Mehmet; Ertas, Abdulselam
The significance of Thymus species in the scientific community is growing steadily due to their extensive utilization in traditional medicine, food industry, and pharmaceutical sector, owing to their abundance in essential oil and phytochemical content, rendering them commercially significant species. The current work focuses on conducting a comprehensive analysis of the ethanol extract and essential oil derived from the root and aerial portions of Thymus brachychilus Jalas, an endemic species that has not been previously investigated. Additionally, a novel GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) technique was developed to quantify the levels of triterpenoids, which are frequently found in many plants, particularly those belonging to the Lamiaceae family. The approach was then used to assess the triterpenoid content of the species. While the phenolic content of the species was determined by LC-MS/MS (liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry), the chemical composition of triterpenoid, essential oil and flavor (aroma) of the plant was determined by GC-MS. Eucalyptol was the primary ingredient in both the essential oil and the flavor, accounting for 11.05% and 12.35%, respectively. In the DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging techniques, the root ethanol extract exhibited the greatest antioxidant activity with IC50 values of 26.70 +/- 0.23 and 19.16 +/- 0.11 mu g/mL, respectively. There was a high level of urease (59.54 +/- 1.67% at 100 mu g/mL) inhibitory activity observed in the root ethanol extract in enzyme inhibition assays, as well as angiotensin (94.80 +/- 0.56%), elastase (40.19 +/- 0.39%), and collagenase (48.26 +/- 0.12%) inhibition in the aerial ethanol extract. Moreover, the MCF-7 cell line for breast cancer had a strong cytotoxic impact when exposed to the essential oil of the species (vitality%: 1.45 +/- 0.01 at 200 mu g/mL. The LC-MS/MS and GC-MS studies revealed that the roots had a significant concentration of rosmarinic acid (15,801 mu g analyte/g extract), but the aerial portions had a substantial quantity of ursolic acid (152,374 mu g analyte/g extract). The plant exhibits potential in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical sectors on account of its elevated levels of rosmarinic and ursolic acid, superior antioxidant capacity, and angiotensin and urease inhibitory effect.

(Oxford Univ Press inc, 2022) Yilmaz, Mustafa Abdullah; Ertas, Abdulselam; Yener, Ismail; Olmez, Ozge Tokul; Firat, Mehmet; Temel, Hamdi; Kolak, Ufuk
Being traditionally utilized mainly as appetizers and herbal teas as well as used to ease abdominal pains, colds and gastrointestinal issues, the genus Salvia L. has gained significant consideration owing to its remarkable phytochemicals and industrial importance. The present study aimed to develop and validate an LC-MS/MS method for the qualitative and quantitative investigation of 19 fingerprint phytochemicals in six endemic Salvia species. The validation parameters of the developed LC-MS/MS method were repeatability (intermediate precision), recovery (accuracy), limits of detection and quantification, linearity and uncertainty (U% at 95% confidence level (k = 2)). Reversed-phase HPLC separation and mass spectrometry parameters were optimized for each analyte. Ethanol extracts of the studied Salvia species collected in three consecutive years were screened for their fingerprint phytochemicals by using the developed and validated LC-MS/MS method. Moreover, studied Salvia species were subjected to multivariate analysis such as principal component analysis techniques to demonstrate the variabilities in phytochemical contents by years and parts of the samples. Roots, flowers, leaves, branches and whole plant of the Salvia species collected in 2015, 2016 and 2017 were used for the analyses. It was observed that the roots and branches of Salvia species were similar in terms of their salvianolic acid A, caffeic acid, and 6,7-dehydroroyleanone components. Accordingly, apigenin, rosmarinic acid, luteolin 7-O-glucoside, caffeic acid, salvianolic acid B, and 6,7-dehydroroyleanone were notable phytochemicals that were present in the studied Salvia species.

In the present study, activity-guided isolation and structural elucidation of antioxidant secondary metabolites of ethanol extracts prepared from the root and aerial parts of Salvia rosifolia and Salvia cerino-pruinosa var. elazigensis species was aimed. The ethanol extracts of the species were fractionated and the antioxidant capacities of the fractions were determined by DPPH-free radical and ABTS-cation radical scavenging activity, and cupric-reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) assays. Isolation studies of the fractions with high antioxidant activities were carried out. Thirty nine secondary metabolites of known structure were isolated from the active extracts. 17 of the isolated compounds are in phenolic-flavonoid structure, 4 of them are in fatty acid structure, 7 of them are in abietane type diterpene structure, 2 of which are paraquinone and 5 of which are in aromatic structure, 8 of them are in triterpene structure, 2 of which are ursane, 2 of which are oleane and 4 of which are lupane structure, and 3 of them are in steroid structure. The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by UV, IR, H-1- and C-13-NMR-(APT), HMQC-HMBC, LCMS-IT/TOF and GC-MS techniques. It was determined that phenolic compounds among the isolated compounds were more active than terpenoid compounds in all three methods.

(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Yildiz, Guelsuem; Seker Karatoprak, Goekce; Ilgun, Selen; Yilmaz, Mustafa Abdullah; Kose, Yavuz Buelent; Zengin, Goekhan
The aerial parts of Helichrysum armenium subsp. armenium were subjected to methanol, ethyl acetate and n-hexane extraction. The extracts were evaluated for their in vitro enzyme inhibitory activity [lipoxygenase (LOX), tyrosinase and elastase], antioxidant activity and toxicity (on fibroblast cells). All the extracts displayed a weak effect on LOX and elastase. The ethyl acetate extract showed the highest inhibition on tyrosinase enzyme with IC50 = 460 mu g/mL, while kojic acid had IC50 = 30 mu g/mL. The methanol and ethyl acetate extracts compared to the n-hexane extract exhibited stronger DPPH center dot and ABTS(center dot +) scavenging activity, as well as iron(II)-chelating potential, and were shown to have rich phenolic and flavonoid contents. The methanol extract was toxic to healthy fibroblast cells at a higher concentration with IC50 > 500 mu g/mL compared to the other extracts. Phytochemical analysis of the extracts was made quantitatively by LC-MS/MS. The major components identified in the methanol and the ethyl acetate extracts were astragalin, quinic acid, apigenin-7-glycoside, isoquercitrin, chlorogenic acid, naringenin, apigenin and luteolin-7-glucoside. The compounds detected in the n-hexane extract were much fewer. Based on these findings, H. armenium subsp. armenium can be considered to be a natural raw material with the potential to be used in the cosmetic industry.
