“P>Some plant terpenes such as sterols and carotenes are part of primary metabolism and found essentially in all plants. However, the majority of the terpenes found in plants are classified as ‘secondary’ compounds, those chemicals whose synthesis has evolved in plants as a result of selection for increased fitness via better adaptation to the local ecological niche of each species. Thousands of such terpenes have been
found in the plant kingdom, but
each species is capable of synthesizing only a small fraction of this total. In plants, a family of terpene synthases (TPSs) is responsible for the synthesis of the various terpene molecules from two isomeric 5-carbon precursor ‘building blocks’, leading to 5-carbon isoprene, 10-carbon monoterpenes, 15-carbon sesquiterpenes and 20-carbon diterpenes. The bryophyte Physcomitrella GSK3235025 in vitro patens has a single TPS gene, copalyl synthase/kaurene synthase (CPS/KS), encoding a bifunctional enzyme producing ent-kaurene, which is a precursor of gibberellins. The genome of the lycophyte Selaginella moellendorffii contains 18 TPS genes, and the genomes of some model angiosperms and gymnosperms contain 40-152 TPS genes, not all of them functional
and most of the functional ones having lost activity in either the CPS- or KS-type domains. TPS genes are generally divided into seven clades, with some plant lineages having a majority of their TPS genes in one or two clades, Androgen Receptor Antagonist nmr indicating lineage-specific expansion of specific types of genes. Evolutionary plasticity is evident in the TPS family, with closely related enzymes differing in their product profiles, subcellular localization, or the in planta substrates they use.”
“Preventive and therapeutic efficacies of resveratrol on several lower gastrointestinal (GI) diseases (e.g., colorectal cancer, colitis) are well documented. To overcome the problems due to its rapid absorption and metabolism at the upper GI tract, a delayed release formulation of resveratrol was designed to treat these lower GI diseases. The current study aimed to develop a delayed release formulation of resveratrol as multiparticulate pectinate beads by varying different formulation parameters. Zinc-pectinate (Zn-pectinate) beads exhibited better delayed drug release pattern than calcium-pectinate (Ca-pectinate) beads. The effects of the formulation parameters were investigated on shape, size, Zn content, moisture content, drug encapsulation efficiency, swelling-erosion, and resveratrol retention pattern of the formulated beads.
