The evolution and growth of multiple-herbicide resistance (MHR) in grass weeds continues to threaten global cereal production. While various processes can contribute to resistance, earlier work has identified the phi class glutathione-S-transferase (AmGSTF1) as a functional biomarker of MHR in black-grass (Alopecurus myosuroides). This study provides further insights into the role of AmGSTF1 in MHR using a combination of chemical and structural biology. Crystal structures of wild-type AmGSTF1, together with two specifically designed variants that allowed the co-crystal structure determination with glutathione and a glutathione adduct of the AmGSTF1 inhibitor 4-chloro-7-nitro-benzofurazan (NBD-Cl) were obtained. These studies demonstrated that the inhibitory activity of NBD-Cl was associated with the occlusion of the active site and the impediment of substrate binding. A search for other selective inhibitors of AmGSTF1, using ligand-fishing experiments, identified a number of flavonoids as potential ligands. Subsequent experiments using black-grass extracts discovered a specific flavonoid as a natural ligand of the recombinant enzyme. A series of related synthetic flavonoids was prepared and their binding to AmGSTF1 was investigated showing a high affinity for derivatives bearing a O-5-decyl-α-carboxylate. Molecular modelling based on high-resolution crystal structures allowed a binding pose to be defined which explained flavonoid binding specificity. Crucially, high binding affinity was linked to a reversal of the herbicide resistance phenotype in MHR black-grass. Collectively, these results present a nature-inspired new lead for the development of herbicide synergists to counteract MHR in weeds. This journal is
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION FOR PREVENTING OR TREATING DIABETES COMPLICATIONS COMPRISING NOVEL CHRYSIN DERIVATIVE COMPOUND AS ACTIVE INGREDIENT

Paragraph 0042-0044, (2020/12/16)
Disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating diabetes complications containing a novel chrysin derivative compound as an active ingredient, and more specifically, a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating diabetes complications containing, as an active ingredient, a novel chrysin derivative compound that is capable of preventing or treating diabetes complications due to the ability thereof to inhibit the formation of an advanced glycation end-product (AGE).

The aim of this study was searching anti-glycation, carbonyl trapping and anti-inflammatory activities of chrysin derivatives. The inhibitory effect of chrysin on advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) was investigated by trapping methylglyoxal (MGO), and MGO-conjugated adducts of chrysin were analyzed using LC-MS/MS. The mono- or di-MGO-conjugated adducts of chrysin were present at 63.86 and 29.69% upon 48 h of incubation at a chrysin:MGO ratio of 1:10. The MGO adducted positions on chrysin were at carbon 6 or 6 & 8 in the A ring by classic aldol condensation. To provide applicable knowledge for developing chrysin derivatives as AGE inhibitors, we synthesized several O-alkyl or ester derivatives of chrysin and compared their AGE formation inhibitory, anti-inflammatory, and water solubility characteristics. The results showed that 5,7-di-O-acetylchrysin possessed higher AGE inhibitory and water solubility qualities than original chrysin, and retained the anti-inflammation activity. These results suggested that 5,7-di-O-acetylchrysin could be a potent functional food ingredient as an AGE inhibitor and anti-inflammatory agent, and promotes the development of the use of chrysin in functional foods.

A series of 5,7-disubstituted chrysin, 7-monosubstituted chrysin, 5-monosubstituted chrysin derivatives were synthesized by alkylation, acetylation, benzoylation, carboxymethylation, and evaluated on their antitumor activity of H22 cells in the search for potential antitumor agents. Among them, compound 3 (5,7-diacetyl chrysin) displayed the most potent antitumor activity with IC50 value of 141 μM. Moreover, there is significant up-regulation of G2 in cell cycle of H22.

A series of chrysin derivatives, prepared by alkylation, halogenation, nitration, methylation, acetylation and trifluoromethylation, were tested in vitro against human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line (SGC-7901) and colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT-29) cells. Among these derivatives of chrysin, 5,7-dimethoxy-8-iodochrysin 3 and 8-bromo-5-hydroxy-7-methoxychrysin 11 have the strongest activities against SGC-7901 and HT-29 cells, respectively. 5,7-Dihydroxy-8-nitrochrysin 12 were found to have strong activities against both SGC-7901 and HT-29 cells.
