Siparuna glycycarpa occurs in the Amazon region, and some species of this genus are used in Brazilian folk medicine. A recent study showed the inhibitory effect of this species against influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus, and in order to acquire active fractions, a polar solvent system n-butanol-methanol-water (9:1:10, v/v) was selected and used for bioassay-guided fractionation of n-butanol extract by centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC). The upper phase was used as stationary phase and the lower phase as mobile (descending mode). Among the collected fractions, the ones coded SGA, SGC, SGD, and SGO showed the highest antiviral inhibition levels (above 74%) at 100 µg·mL−1 after 24 h of infection. The bioactive fractions chemical profiles were investigated by LC-HRMS/MS data in positive and negative ionization modes exploring the Global Natural Products Social Molecular Networking (GNPS) platform to build a molecular network. Benzylisoquinoline alkaloids were annotated in the fractions coded SGA, SGC, and SGD collected during elution step. Aporphine alkaloids, O-glycosylated flavonoids, and dihydrochalcones in SGO were acquired with the change of mobile phase from lower aqueous to upper organic. Benzylisoquinolinic and aporphine alkaloids as well as glycosylated flavonoids were annotated in the most bioactive fractions suggesting this group of compounds as responsible for antiviral activity.

Sideritis congesta is a plant native to Mediterranean countries. Infusions of this plant are used to treat various diseases. The anti-inflammatory potential of Sideritis species is widely known. However, the anti-inflammatory potential of an aqueous extract of S. congesta has not been investigated yet. In this study, the phytochemical composition and anti-inflammatory potential of different fractions of an aqueous extract from S. congesta using bioactivity guided fractionation via centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) were determined. A CPC single-step isolation of a flavonoid stachyspinoside 1 from S. congesta is reported. In addition, a CPC fractionation protocol of the crude aqueous extract was developed. Three aqueous fractions (I, II, and III) of S. congesta were obtained, and their anti-inflammatory potential was evaluated with respect to their ability to inhibit the activity of COX-2 and NF-κB in vitro. Fraction I showed the highest COX-2 inhibition activity (92.3% inhibition at 0.1%). Fraction III showed the highest NF-κB inhibition activity (99.9% at 0.1%) among the CPC produced fractions. The structures of 3 compounds of fraction III could be identified and were validated by HPLC-PDA, HRMS, and NMR spectroscopy. Finally, the phenol, saponin, and flavonoid contents were quantified in the most potent CPC fractions (I and III).

As important pharmaceutical resources, traditional herbal medicines retain continuous attention. To do that, isolation and identification of bioactive molecules from traditional herbal decoction are important. However, conventional fractionation through octadecyl silica column faces irreversible sample adsorption that causes a bias in bioactivity assessment. However, liquid-liquid chromatographic system suffers tedious K value calculation as well as insufficient capacity in separation power when crude extract composed of widely ranging polarities. Here, we developed a comprehensive linear gradient solvent system for centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) to aid bioassay-guided isolation. The lower aqueous phase of the n-hexane-acetonitrile-water (10:2:8, v/v) was used as the stationary, whereas its upper organic phase followed by the upper phase of ethyl acetate-acetonitrile-water and water-saturated n-butanol-acetonitrile-water in the same ratio were eluted in a linear gradient mode, thereby increasing polarity in the mobile phase. The HPLC profiling of CPC fraction showed that proposed gradient CPC was suitable to separate metabolites from Yongdamsagan-Tang, a traditional medicinal decoction made of ten herbal plants. Exhibiting a high recovery yield of 98.3%, antioxidant response element (ARE) luciferase-inducing assay in HepG2 cells indicated that the fractions composed of baicalein and wogonin, the marker natural products of Scutellaria baicalensis, were to be the most effective molecules from Yongdamsagan-Tang. The presented results demonstrated that bioassay-guided separation that assisted with a linear gradient CPC is an incomparable alternative to HPLC and biphasic CPC in terms of higher yield rate and redundant K value calculation, respectively, which led to an unbiased/time-saving separation and identification of bioactive molecules from the complex crude extract of natural products.

In this study, a centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) separation was applied to identify antioxidant-responsive element (ARE) induction molecules from the crude extract of Lindera strychnifolia roots. CPC was operated with a two-phase solvent system composed of n-hexane-methanol-water (10:8.5:1.5, v/v/v) in dual mode (descending to ascending), which provided a high recovery rate (>95.5%) with high resolution. Then, ARE induction activity of obtained CPC fractions was examined in ARE-transfected HepG2 cells according to the weight ratios of the obtained fractions. The fraction exhibiting ARE-inducing activity was further purified by preparative HPLC that led to isolation of two eudesmane type sesquiterpenes as active compounds. The chemical structures were elucidated as linderolide U (1) and a new sesquiterpene named as linderolide V (2) by spectroscopic data. Further bioactivity test demonstrated that compounds 1 and 2 enhanced ARE activity by 22.4-fold and 7.6-fold, respectively, at 100 μM concentration while 5 μM of sulforaphane induced ARE activity 24.8-fold compared to the control.

AbstractThe (semi)volatile fraction of Matricaria chamomilla L., an annual herbal plant from the family of Asteraceae, contains high quantities of sesquiterpenes and sesquiterpenoids. A method was developed to achieve isolation and separation of these compounds, using a combination of solvent assisted flavor evaporation (SAFE) and solid support-free liquid-liquid chromatography. The biphasic liquid solvent system n-heptane/ethyl acetate/methanol/water, 5/2/5/2 v/v/v/v (Arizona S) was elaborated as a suitable solvent system for the simultaneous separation of the target compounds. The lab-scale liquid-liquid chromatography separation performed in a countercurrent chromatography (CCC) column was successfully transferred to a semi-preparative centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) column, which enabled the isolation of artemisia ketone, artemisia alcohol, α-bisabolone oxide A, and (E)-en-yn-dicycloether. α-Bisabolol oxide A and (Z)-en-yn-dicycloether co-eluted, but were successfully separated by subsequent size-exclusion chromatography (SEC). Similarly, spathulenol and α-bisabolol oxide B were obtained as a mixture, and were separated by means of column chromatography using silica gel as stationary phase. The isolated compounds were characterized by means of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Graphical abstract

The present work describes the use of Centrifugal Partition Chromatography (CPC) for the bio-guided isolation of repellent active volatile compounds from essential oils. Five essential oils (EOs) obtained from three Pinus and two Juniperus species were initially analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and evaluated for their repellent properties against Aedes albopictus. The essential oil from needles of P. pinea (PPI) presented the higher activity, showing 82.4% repellency at a dose of 0.2 μL/cm2. The above EO, together with the EO from the fruits of J. oxycedrus subsp. deltoides (JOX), were further analyzed by CPC using the biphasic system n-Heptane/ACN/BuOH in ratio 1.6/1.6/0.2 (v/v/v). The analysis of PPI essential oil resulted in the recovery of (−)-limonene, guaiol and simple mixtures of (−)-limonene/β-pheladrene, while the fractionation of JOX EO led to the recovery of β-myrcene, germacrene-D, and mixtures of α-pinene/β-pinene (ratio 70/30) and α-pinene/germacrene D (ratio 65/45). All isolated compounds and recovered mixtures were tested for their repellent activity. From them, (−)-limonene, guaiol, germacrene-D as well the mixtures of (−)-limonene/β-pheladrene presented significant repellent activity (>97% repellency) against Ae. albopictus. The present methodology could be a valuable tool in the effort to develop potent mosquito repellents which are environmentally friendly.
