 Objective:The objective of this study is to characterize the phytoconstituents of Tiliacora racemosa Colebr. using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS).Methods: Preliminary phytochemical and physicochemical analysis was carried out using standard procedures. GC-MS analysis of methanolic extract was carried out using Thermo GC-Trace Ultra version: 5.0, Thermo MS DSQ with a DB 35MS capillary standard non-polar column and gas chromatograph interfaced to a mass selective detector (MS DSQ II) with Xcalibur software.Results: Preliminary phytochemical screening revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, tannins, triterpenoids, steroids, proteins and amino acids, carbohydrates, saponins and coumarin. Quinones, anthraquinones, glycosides and fixed oil were absent. GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of 28 compounds of which quinic acid (retention times [RT]: 15.65) and inositol, 1-deoxy-(CAS) (RT: 19.24) was observed as abundant compounds.Conclusion: The presence of various bioactive compounds confirms the medicinal importance and it’s application for curing various diseases by traditional practitioners. However, isolation and characterization of potential bioactive compounds would lead to drug formulation.

Oleogum resins of B. papyrifera, B. neglecta, and B. rivae were collected from northwestern, southern, and southeastern Ethiopia, and their respective methanol extracts and essential oils were extracted and analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The investigation on essential oils led to the identification of 6, 7, and 8 constituents for B. papyrifera, B. neglecta, and B. rivae, respectively. The essential oil of B. papyrifera is mainly characterized by the presence of octyl acetate (57.1–65.7%) and n-octanol (3.4–8.8%). B. neglecta is rich in α-pinene (32.6–50.7%) followed by terpinen-4-ol (17.5–29.9%) and α-thujene (12.7–16.5%), whereas B. rivae was predominated by α-pinene (32.5–66.2%) followed by p-cymene (5.7–21.1%) and limonene (1.1–19.6%). Methanol extracts of the three Boswellia species were found to consist of diterpines (incensole, incensyl acetate and verticilla-4(20),7,11-triene), triterpenes (β-amyrin, α-amyrin, β-amyrenone, and α-amyrenone), nortriterpenes (24-noroleana-3,12-diene and 24-norursa-3,12-diene), and α-boswellic acid. The investigation on the methanol extract showed that only B. papyrifera contains diterpenes and nortriterpenes, whereas B. rivae and B. neglecta consist of only triterpenes. The results indicate that the three Boswellia species were characterized by some terpenes and these terpenoic constituents could be recognized as chemotaxonomical markers for each species.

AbstractBlood pressure regulation is basically control of amount of blood flow to certain tissues according to their metabolic needs. The complexity of the mechanisms involved leading to the assumption that there are many functional and structural proteins involved in blood pressure regulation. Indonesian people, especially those living on the island of Java, usually consume star fruit Averrhoa carambola to reduce blood pressure, but the content of bioactive compounds and the mechanism of their interference with proteins is still unknown. This study aimed to determine the bioactive compound content of Averrhoa carambola's methanol extract and its mechanism of interference with the target proteins. An amount of 200 g Averrhoa carambola dried simplicia was extracted by the maceration method using absolute methanol. The extract was then subjected to phytochemical tests using the Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) method. Based on the results obtained from the GC-MS phytochemical test, the names of the bioactive compounds found in the Averrhoa carambola methanol extract were obtained. The compounds are then analyzed for their target protein in the human body using the STITCH database (http://stitch.embl.de/). The proteins that had been predicted to be the target of active compounds of Averrhoa carambola methanol extract were analyzed for interactions between proteins using the STRINGdb database (https://string-db.org/cgi/input.pl). Based on this research, it can be concluded that Averrhoa carambola fruit methanol extract can help lower blood pressure by producing NO and acting as antioxidants. However, further research (in-vitro and in-vivo) needs to be done to prove the mechanism. AbstrakRegulasi tekanan darah adalah jumlah kontrol aliran darah ke jaringan tertentu sesuai dengan kebutuhan metabolismenya. Kompleksnya mekanisme yang terlibat, memunculkan asumsi terdapat banyak protein fungsional maupun struktural yang terlibat dalam regulasi tekanan darah. Masyarakat Indonesia, terutama yang tinggal di pulau Jawa biasa mengkonsumsi buah belimbing untuk menurunkan tekanan darah, namun kandungan senyawa bioaktif dan mekanisme intervensinya terhadap protein-protein belum diketahui. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui kandungan senyawa bioaktif ekstrak metanol buah Averrhoa carambola dan mekanisme intervensinya terhadap protein-protein targetnya. Simplisia kering buah Averrhoa carambola sebanyak 200 g diekstraksi dengan metode maserasi menggunakan metanol absolut. Dari ekstrak tersebut dilakukan uji fitokimia dengan metode Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) sehingga didapatkan nama-nama senyawa bioaktif yang terdapat pada ekstrak metanol Averrhoa carambola. Senyawa-senyawa tersebut kemudian dianalisis protein targetnya dalam tubuh manusia menggunakan database STITCH (http://stitch.embl.de/). Kemudian dianalisis interaksi antar protein menggunakan database STRINGdb (https://string-db.org/cgi/input.pl). Berdasarkan penelitian ini, ekstrak metanol buah Averrhoa carambola dapat membantu menurunkan tekanan darah dengan memproduksi NO dan berperan sebagai antioksidan. Namun, penelitian lebih lanjut (in-vitro dan in-vivo) perlu dilakukan untuk membuktikan mekanismenya
