<P>Four new asterosaponins, astrosteriosides A–D (<B>1</B>–<B>3</B> and <B>5</B>), and two known compounds, psilasteroside (<B>4</B>) and marthasteroside B (<B>6</B>), were isolated from the MeOH extract of the edible Vietnamese starfish <I>Astropecten monacanthus</I>. Their structures were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic methods including FTICRMS and 1D and 2D NMR experiments. The effects of the extracts and isolated compounds on pro-inflammatory cytokines were evaluated by measuring the production of IL-12 p40, IL-6, and TNF-α in LPS-stimulated bone marrow-derived dendritic cells. Compounds <B>1</B>, <B>5</B>, and <B>6</B> exhibited potent anti-inflammatory activity comparable to that of the positive control. Further studies are required to confirm efficacy <I>in vivo</I> and the mechanism of effects.

Phan, Nguyen Huu Toan,Thuan, Nguyen Thi Dieu,Ngoc, Ninh Thi,Thao, Nguyen Phuong,Kim, Sohyun,Koh, Young Sang,Thanh, Nguyen Van,Cuong, Nguyen Xuan,Nam, Nguyen Hoai,Kiem, Phan Van,Kim, Young Ho,Minh, Cha Pharmaceutical Society of Japan 2015 Chemical & pharmaceutical bulletin Vol.63 No.7
<P>Five new tirucallane saponins, paramignyosides A-E (1-5), were isolated from the water fraction of the Paramignya scandens stem and leaves. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence including high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS) and one dimensional (1D)- and 2D-NMR. The effects of isolated compounds on pro-inflammatory cytokines were evaluated by measuring the production of interleukin (IL)-12 p40, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs). Paramignyoside C (3) exhibited selective and potent inhibitory effect (IC50=5.030.19??M) on the production of IL-12 p40 comparable to that of the positive control, SB203580 (IC50=5.000.16??M). Further studies are required to confirm efficacy in vivo and the mechanism of anti-inflammatory effects.</P>

To assist the government of Vietnam in its efforts to better understand the impacts of climate change and prioritise its adaptation measures, dynamically downscaled climate change projections were produced across Vietnam. Two Regional Climate Models (RCMs) were used: CSIRO’s variable-resolution Conformal-Cubic Atmospheric Model (CCAM) and the limited-area model Regional Climate Model system version 4.2 (RegCM4.2). First, global CCAM simulations were completed using bias- and variance-corrected sea surface temperatures as well as sea ice concentrations from six Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) global climate models. This approach is different from other downscaling approaches as it does not use any atmospheric fields from the GCMs. The global CCAM simulations were then further downscaled to 10 km using CCAM and to 20 km using RegCM4.2. Evaluations of temperature and precipitation for the current climate (1980-2000) were completed using station data as well as various gridded observational datasets. The RCMs were able to reproduce reasonably well most of the important characteristics of observed spatial patterns and annual cycles of temperature. Average and minimum temperatures were well simulated (biases generally less than 1oC), while maximum temperatures had biases of around 1oC. For precipitation, although the RCMs captured the annual cycle, RegCM4.2 was too dry in Oct.-Nov. (−60% bias), while CCAM was too wet in Dec.- Mar. (130% bias). Both models were too dry in summer and too wet in winter (especially in northern Vietnam). The ability of the ensemble simulations to capture current climate increases confidence in the simulations of future climate.

<P>From the aerial parts of Glochidion eriocarpum, a new triterpene, glochieriol (1), three new triterpenoid saponins, glochieriosides C - E (2 - 4), together with four known triterpenes (glochidonol, glochidiol, lupeol, and 3-epi-lupeol) were isolated by using combined chromatographic separations. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data, including FTICR-MS, 1D and 2D NMR.</P>

Defective endosperm ($De^*$)-B30 is a dominant maize mutation in the gene that encodes the storage protein, ${\alpha}$-zein protein. The $De^*$-B30 mutation results in a defective signal peptide in a 19-kD ${\alpha}$-zein protein, which triggers endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to up-regulation of genes associated with the unfolded protein response. To extend our knowledge of the physiological responses to constitutive ER stress in plants, transgenic Arabidopsis plants were constructed, in which $De^*$-B30 transcripts were constitutively expressed under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter. Transgenic plants exhibited pale green leaves and growth retardation during the early vegetative stage. In addition, the growth rate of hypocotyl elongation was depressed in dark-grown transgenic seedlings. However, RNA blot analyses revealed no induction of the ER stress-inducible genes, including AtBiP1, AtCNX1, and AtCRT1 in transgenic Arabidopsis plants. Even though transgenic plants also were revealed to retain wildtype level of tunicamycin sensitivity, they showed an increase in hydrogen peroxide production. Higher levels of AtGST1 gene expression in transgenic plants were revealed. These findings suggest that reactive oxygen species are involved in the response to constitutive ER stress in Arabidopsis.

Along with the development of imaging sensors, hyperspectral imaging technology is growing rapidly and contributing to many fields of science nowadays. However, the bulky size and complex structure make it difficult to be processed. Focused on in this paper is the clustering utility, implemented in HYVIEW, a program involving tools and functions to manipulate with hyperspectral images. The clustering process aims to partition the surface of the imaged area into subregions by grouping the spectra subject to the similarity of spectra.

Fucoxanthin is known to be an effective cell proliferation inhibitor with anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic activities. However, there is a lack of data regarding the biological effects of cis isomers of fucoxanthin. To assess the potential therapeutic properties of 9'-cis-(6'R) fucoxanthin (FcA), and 13-cis and 13'-cis-(6'R) fucoxanthin complex (FcB) isolated from Sarggassum siliquastrum, we investigated their inhibitory effects on matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced human fibrosarcoma (HT1080) cells. FcA and FcB reduced MMP-2 and MMP-9 protein and mRNA levels, as well as the migration of these cells, in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, FcA and FcB increased levels of MMPs inhibition factors such as tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1. FcA and FcB significantly inhibited the transcriptional activity of nuclear factor ${\kappa}B$ (NF-${\kappa}B$) and by inhibiting c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases. Our results demonstrate that suppression of the NF-${\kappa}B$, JNK, and p38 signaling pathways may inhibit PMA-induced MMP-2 and MMP-9 activity. Therefore, FcA and FcB may be useful in noninvasive therapeutic strategies against fibrosarcoma metastasis.
