- Enzymatic Synthesis and Antioxidant Activity of 1-Caffeoylglycerol Prepared from Alkyl Caffeates and Glycerol
-
Caffeic acid (CA) as a strong antioxidant has lower solubility in nonpolar media, which limits its application in the food industry. To increase the lipophilicity of CA, 1-caffeoylglycerol (1-CG) was synthesized by lipase-catalyzed transesterification of

- Synthesis, antifungal activity of caffeic acid derivative esters, and their synergism with fluconazole and nystatin against Candida spp.
-
We tested the antifungal potential of caffeic acid and 8 of its derivative esters against Candidaalbicans ATCC 90028 and 9 clinical isolatesand carried out a synergism assay with fluconazole and nystatin. Propyl caffeate (C3) showed the best antifungal ac

- Design and synthesis of novel aspirin-caffeic acid ester hybrids for cardioprotection with reduced risk of hemorrhagic stroke
-
A series of novel aspirin-caffeic acid ester hybrids for cardioprotection with reduced risk of hemorrhagic stroke were designed and synthesized by coupling aspirin and caffeic acid esters inspired by NCX-4016. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for

- Impact of alkyl esters of caffeic and ferulic acids on tumor cell proliferation, cyclooxygenase enzyme, and lipid peroxidation
-
The antioxidant ferulic and caffeic acid phenolics are ubiquitous in plants and abundant in fruits and vegetables. We have synthesized a series of ferulic and caffeic acid esters and tested for tumor cell proliferation, cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and -2) and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activities in vitro. In the tumor cell proliferation assay, some of these esters showed excellent growth inhibition of colon cancer cells. Among the phenolics esters assayed, compounds 10 (C12-caffeate), 11 (C16-caffeate), 21 (C 8-ferulate), and 23 (C12-ferulate) showed strong growth inhibition with IC50 values of 16.55, 13.46, 18.67, and 7.57 μg/mL in a breast cancer cell line; 9.65, 7.45, 17.05, and 4.35 μg/ mL in a lung cancer cell line; 5.78, 3.5, 4.29, and 2.46 μg/mL in a colon cancer cell line; 12.04, 12.21, 14.63, and 8.09 μg/ mL in a central nervous system cancer cell line; and 8.62, 7.76, 11.0, and 5.37 in a gastric cancer cell line. In COX enzyme inhibitory assays, ferulic and caffeic acid esters significantly inhibited both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. Caffeates 5-10 (C4-C 12), inhibited COX-1 enzyme between 50% and 90% and COX-2 enzyme by about 70%, whereas ferulates 15-21 (C3-C8) inhibited COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes by 85-95% 25 μg/mL. Long-chain caffeates 11-14 (C 16-C22) and short-chain ferulates 15-20 (C 3-C5) were the most active in lipid peroxidation inhibition and showed 60-70% activity at 5 μg/mL concentration.
