Pavuková, S.:Vinca minor L. alkaloids and their biological activity II. Diploma thesis, Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Department of Pharmaceutical Botany, Hradec Králové 2020. Vinca minor L. is a species of species of flowering plant, native mainly to central and southern Europe, which containst more than 50 indole alkaloids. During screening of potential plant inhibitors against human acetylcholinesterase (hAChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (HBChE) at our department, an alkaloidal extract from dried aerial parts of Vinca minor demonstrated strong and selective hBChE inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 13.60 ± 0.83 μg/mL, however, against hAChE was inactive (IC50 value >100 μg/mL). The fraction VM 323 - 327 (4,72 g) was separated by column chromatography on silica gel again with stepwise elution by using chloroform and ethanol and overall 7 joined fractions were obtained.Subsequently, repeated preparative TLC on silica gel led to isolation of three compounds; the newly isolated substance SP-1, (-)-picrinine (SP-2) and deacetylakuammiline (SP-3). Their structures were elucidated with mass spectrometry (ESI), NMR and optical rotation. Isolated alkaloids were tested on ability to inhibit AChE, BuChE, POP a GSK-3β, which are enzymes playing an important role in...

Vinca minor L. alkaloids and their biological activity I.

1 9 ABSTRACT Jurkaninová, M.: Vinca minor L. alkaloids and their biological activity I. Diploma thesis, Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Department of Pharmaceutical Botany, Hradec Králové, 2019 The aim of this thesis was the isolation of alkaloids from selected fraction 3 (joined fractions (15 - 36), which was a sub-fraction of the fraction VM 323 - 327. It was obtained from the previous processing of an alkaloidal extract from the Vinca minor L at the Department of Pharmaceutical Botany as a part of elaboration of diploma thesis of Aneta Vítavcová.[78] The fraction VM 323-327 was separated by column chromatography on silica gel and a totally, of 7 subfractions were obtained. Subsequent repeated processing of the selected sub-fraction 3 (15 - 36) by preparative TLC on silica gel resulted in the isolation of (-)-vinoxine and its racemate (±)-vinoxine. Identification of their structure was determined based on MS, NMR and optical rotation. The inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholiesterase and prolyl oligopeptidase were determined for the isolated substances. Inhibitory activity against selected enzymes was measured by spectrophotometric methods. Isolated alkaloids were required to be inactive against AChE and POP (IC50 >1000 μM), against to BChE showed a...
