Background/Objectives: We assessed the influence of long-term injection magnoflorine (MAG) on memory acquisition in mice for first time. Methods: This isoquinoline alkaloid that belongs to aporphines was isolated from roots Berberis vulgaris by centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) using a biphasic solvent system composed chloroform: methanol: water ratio 4:3:3 (v/v/v) with 20 mM hydrochloric acid and triethylamine, within 64 min. Results: Our results indicated MAG mg/kg dose improve were evaluated passive avoidance (PA) test no toxicity records. The analysis brain lysates animal plasma HPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS/MS showed ability compound cross blood–brain barrier, an elevated level phosphatidylcholine PC (14:1(9Z)/14:1(9Z)) molecular formula C36H69NO8P observed both treated groups 10 comparison control group. Conclusions: phenomenon may explain MAG’s cognition-enhancing properties as induce synthesis strengthening neuronal cells. Also, 7-day-long administration at increased mean number parvalbumin (PV)-IR neurons hippocampus. Statistically, largest PV-IR dose, which indicate potential effect Ca2+ metabolism. However, statistical differences nerve fibers doses MAG, regardless hippocampal fields. positive provides further support neuroprotective this alkaloid.

Cancer is the most common cause of death and still a serious public health problem. Alkaloids, class bioactive compounds widely diffused in plants, especially Chinese herbs, are used as functional ingredients, precursors, lead food clinical applications. Among them, aporphine alkaloids (AAs), an important isoquinoline alkaloids, exert strong anticancer effect on multiple cancer types. This review aims to comprehensively summarize phytochemistry, pharmacokinetics, bioavailability seven subtypes AAs their derivatives from various plants highlight bioactivities mechanisms action. Key Scientific Concepts Review. The chemical structures botanical diversity elucidated, promising results highlighted regarding potent activities derivatives, contributing pharmacological benefits. work provides better understanding combinational therapies involving thereby improving development containing plant-derived AA application AAs.

Abstract Magnoflorine (Mag), a natural alkaloid component originating from the Ranunculaceae Juss . Family, has various of pharmacological activities. This study aimed to investigate therapeutic effects and potential mechanism Mag on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)‐induced ulcerative colitis (UC) based comprehensive approaches. Therapeutic 3% DSS‐induced UC mice were analyzed. UHPLC‐Q‐TOF/MS was performed metabolites signaling pathway UC. Furthermore, predicted mRNA protein levels JAK2/STAT3 in colon tissue verified assessed by qRT‐PCR Western Blotting, respectively. presented down‐regulation serum biochemical indices, alleviating histological damage tissue. Serum untargeted metabolomics analysis showed that is mainly associated with regulation six biomarkers 11 pathways, which may be responsible for efficacy The “component–metabolites–targets” interactive network indicated exerts its anti‐UC effect regulating PTGS1 PTGS2, thereby arachidonic acid. Moreover, results could substantially decrease relative expression level Hub genes. In addition, it found inhibit pathway. present highlighted role ameliorated injury inhibiting These suggest an effective agent treatment

Background: Depression is a common neuropsychiatric disease. As famous traditional Chinese medicine with significant anti-depressive and sleep-promoting effects, Ziziphi Spinosae Semen (ZSS) has attracted the attention of many researchers. Although it well known that Magnoflorine (MAG) Spinosin (SPI) were main active components isolated from ZSS, there lack research on combined treatment depression these two ingredients. Methods: The shaking bottle method was used to simulate human environment for detecting changes in oil-water partition coefficient before after drug combination. Cell viability evaluated by MTT assay. To establish mouse model insomnia CUMS method, then explore effect administration MAG SPI observing behavior analyzing pharmacokinetics. Results: change LogP values affected lipid solubility increased water SPI, allowing them penetrate more easily through blood-brain barrier into brain. Compared group, MAG-SPI concentration 60 μM significantly cell survival rate. In both TST FST experiments, mice showed decrease immobilization time. Pharmacokinetic results pharmacokinetic parameters, Cmax AUC case combination, which resulted enhancement their relative bioavailability improvement vivo effects. Conclusions: present study demonstrated combination had synergistic antidepressant model.

In recent years, an increasing interest in phytotherapy has been observed. Parallel to the research on total extracts of plant material, numerous studies activity single molecules derived from plants are being conducted address their mechanisms action and determine active doses eventual interactions. Despite this phenomenon, isolation individual compounds is a bottleneck due its difficulty cost. This work presents results careful optimization magnoflorine berberine (isoquinoline alkaloids) recovery commonly distributed shrub, Berberis vulgaris, growing Poland Georgia, using CPC. Both known for medicinal properties, which makes methodology important area research. Additionally, CPC ability isolate high-quality large quantities, it effective easy-to-commercialize method. For successful separation, biphasic solvent system composed hexane, butanol, ethanol, water ratio (3:12:4:16 v/v/v/v) was used ascending mode, together with flow rate 8 mL/min rotation speed 1600 rpm. The method selective both compounds, delivered good root stem plant. qualitative composition alkaloids studied determined by HPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS/MS confirmed presence berberine, magnoflorine, jatrorhizine, palmatine group isoquinolines. isolates, were subjected Helicobacter pylori growth inhibition assay urease test assess whether, next previously proved anticancer these characterized H. inhibition. MGN found exhibit inhibitory potential against (IC50 = 25 mg/L).

Previously, we demonstrated that palmatine (PALM) - an isoquinoline alkaloid from Berberis sibrica radix, exerted antiseizure activity in the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizure assay larval zebrafish. The aim of present study was to more precisely characterize PALM as a potential anticonvulsant drug candidate. A range zebrafish and mouse seizure/epilepsy models were applied investigation. Immunostaining analysis conducted assess changes brains, while silico molecular modelling performed determine targets for PALM. Accordingly, had effect ethyl 2-ketopent-4-enoate (EKP)-induced larvae well 6 Hz-induced psychomotor threshold timed infusion PTZ tests mice. protective EKP-induced confirmed local field recordings. did not affect seizures gabra1a knockout line larvae.
