Összefoglaló szövege

Introduction: Rosmarinic acid and its related compounds are mainly found in plants belonging to the Nepetoideae subfamily of the Lamiaceae family. Salvia officinalis (sage) is a well-known culinary and medicinal herb, widely recognized as a main source of rosmarinic acid. Salvia verticillata (lilac sage), Salvia pratensis (meadow sage), Salvia nemorosa (woodland sage), Salvia sclarea (clary sage), and Glechoma hirsuta (creeping charley) are closely related species within the subfamily Nepetoideae. Their phytochemical composition remains insufficiently characterized, with existing studies focusing primarily on the aerial parts.
Aims and Methods: Current study was designed to 1) depict the accumulation of the compounds in various organs of selected Nepetoideae species by HPLC-HR-MS/MS, 2) analyze changes in the metabolite composition during endogenous enzyme treatment of the extracts, 3) define optimum tissues and enzyme treatment conditions, allowing for the isolation of compounds, 4) determine the structures of the isolated compounds by NMR, and 5) evaluate the antioxidant and anti-proliferative potential of isolated compounds.
Results: Without enzyme treatment, we could isolate; i) rosmarinic acid-3-O-β-D-glucoside (1), rosmarinic acid (3), and a novel related compound (4), from the roots of S. verticillata; ii) salvianolic acids (2 and 5) from the roots and rhizomes of S. pratensis and G. hirsuta, respectively. As a result of optimized endogenous enzyme treatment, conversion products were formed with the loss of a formyl moiety from all the parent compounds, leading to the isolation of nepetoidines (7 and 8) in significantly higher yields than those previously reported. Furthermore, a novel salvianolic acid derivative (6) could also be isolated. Isolated compounds showed structure-specific antioxidant and cytostatic activities.
Conclusion: Two novel salvianolic acid derivatives were reported, along with an alternative strategy to obtain nepetoidines in higher yields.
