Introduction: In the present study, we analyzed anti-proliferative and apoptosis induction activity of five phenolic compounds: echisoside, pleoside, chlorogenic acid, 4,5-Di-O-caffeoylquinic acid, and cynarin on AGS (adenocarcinoma gastric) cell line. Method: These phenolic compounds were isolated from methanol extract of Dorema glabrum root. An MTT assay was conducted to evaluate the inhibitory effect on cancer cells. EB/AO staining was done to assess the mode of cell death and morphological changes of the cells’ nuclei. Cell cycle distribution of the cells was analyzed by flow cytometry, and for further confirmation of the pathway, mRNA levels of apoptosis cascade players were quantified by qRT-PCR. Result: We found that echisoside, pleoside, chlorogenic acid, 4,5-Di-O-caffeoylquinic acid, and cynarin inhibited the proliferation of AGS cancer cells in vitro. Our data revealed that these compounds triggered morphological changes characteristic of apoptotic cell death. These compounds up-regulated bax and caspase3 expression and down-regulated cyclin D1, bcl2, VEGFA, c-myc and survivin. Moreover, cell population increased at the G1 phase, and a number of cells at the G2/M phase of the cell cycle decreased after treatment. Conclusion: All these data suggest that phenolic compounds have a cytotoxic effect on gastric cancer cells and could trigger apoptosis. Besides cytotoxic activity, they could potentially arrest the cell cycle at the G1 phase.

The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the effects of different extraction techniques (high hydrostatic pressure-assisted extraction (HHPE), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and classical solvent extraction (CSE)) on phenolic compounds from spent coffee grounds (SCG). Different HHPE parameters (300, 400 and 500 MPa at 25 °C for 5, 10 and 15 min) and UAE parameters (40%, 50%, and 60% amplitude at 25 °C for 5, 10 and 15 min) were used. These techniques were compared with CSE (at 50 °C for 30 min) according to total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant activity (AA), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. The results showed that eco-friendly techniques increased the TPC and AA compared to CSE and morphological changes were verified by SEM results. Furthermore, chlorogenic and caffeic acid were also quantified by using HPLC. Chlorogenic acid was found as the main phenolic compound in spent coffee grounds (SCG). The highest chlorogenic acid was detected as 85.0 ± 0.6 mg/kg FW with UAE at 60% amplitude for 15 min. In brief, for the extraction of phenolic compounds from waste SCG eco-friendly techniques such as HHPE and/or UAE were more convenient than CSE.

Taxus chinensis var. mairei was used as test material, exogenous nitric oxide (NO) fumigation treatment with different concentration (0, 0.01, 0.1, 0.5 or 1 mM) of sodium nitrop russide (SNP), a donor for exogenous NO, was used to study the effects of NO on the active oxygen metabolism index of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), peroxidase (POD), Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in Taxus chinensis var. mairei. The results showed that low concentration of exogenous NO treatment increased the activities of the protective enzyme, such as SOD, CAT, POD and APX of Taxus chinensis var. mairei leaves, reduced the content of H2O2, and inhibit the increase of MDA in the first three days. NO fumigation treatment enhanced the antioxidant ability of Taxus chinensis var. mairei, prevented lipid membrane peroxidation.

During their lifespan, Red blood cells (RBC), due to their inability to self-replicate, undergo an ageing degradation phenomenon. This pathway, both in vitro and in vivo, consists of a series of chemical and morphological modifications, which include deviation from the biconcave cellular shape, oxidative stress, membrane peroxidation, lipid content decrease and uncoupling of the membrane-skeleton from the lipid bilayer. Here, we use the capabilities of atomic force microscopy based infrared nanospectroscopy (AFM-IR) to study and correlate, with nanoscale resolution, the morphological and chemical modifications that occur during the natural degradation of RBCs at the subcellular level. By using the tip of an AFM to detect the photothermal expansion of RBCs, it is possible to obtain nearly two orders of magnitude higher spatial resolution IR spectra, and absorbance images than can be obtained on diffraction-limited commercial Fourier-transform Infrared (FT-IR) microscopes. Using this approach, we demonstrate that we can identify localized sites of oxidative stress and membrane peroxidation on individual RBC, before the occurrence of neat morphological changes in the cellular shape.
