The present study investigated the phytochemical and biological properties of the rhizomes C. aromatica. From the CHCl3 extract of C. aromatic rhizomes, six known compounds, including (-)-hannokinol, (3R,5R)-3,5-diacetoxy-1,7-bis(4- hydroxyphenyl)heptane, naringenin, 2-(4- (hydroxymethyl)phenyl)propan-2-ol, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, and bisacurone, were isolated. All compounds were tested on the biological inhibitory activities against tyrosinase, αglucosidase, and urease. It was the first time all compounds were isolated from rhizomes of C. aromatica Salisb.

Usnic acid isolated from lichen was a potential bioactivity compound. It has a broad spectrum bioactivity, including antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anticancer… However, low solubility in water limited its application. Many researchs have done to overcome the restriction. Recent results showed that usnic acid derivatives bearing triazole, enamine, pyrazole and benzylidene groups had strong antiviral and anticancer activities. Thus, investigation of usnic acid derivatives synthesis was an attractive aspect due to the diversity of bioactivities of usnic acid derivatives.

Nuclear factor erythroid-2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a crucial transcription factor that regulates the expression of defensive antioxidants and detoxification enzymes in cells. In a previous study, we showed that expression of the Nrf2 gene is regulated by an epigenetic modification. Rauvolfia verticillata, a traditional Chinese herbal medicine widely used in China, possesses anticancer and antioxidant effects. In this study, we investigated how Nrf2 is epigenetically regulated by reserpine, the main active component in R. verticillata, in mouse skin epidermal JB6 P+ cells.

The reliability of Quantitative Structure – Activity or Property Relationships for prediction of physico-chemical properties and anticancer activity of flavone and isoflavone derivatives was improved by using the quantitative relationships between structurally similar flavone and isoflavone structures (QSSRs). The targeted-compound method was developed by a training set, which contains only similar compounds structurally to target compound.

TRAIL has been shown to effectively limit tumor growthin vivowithout detectable cytotoxic side-effects. Interferon (IFN)-coften modulates the anticancer activities of TNF family members including TRAIL. How-ever, little is known about the mechanism.
