β-Secretase(BACE1) inhibitors from pomegranate (Punica granatum) husk
Archives of Pharmacal Research, 2005Co-Authors: Hye-min Kwak, So-young Jeon, Bang-ho Sohng, Jong-guk Kim, Jin-man Lee, Kyung-bok Lee, Hyun-hee Jeong, Jong-moon Hur, Young-hwa Kang, Kyung-sik SongAbstract:In the course of screening for anti-dementia agents from natural products, two β-secretase (BACE1) inhibitors were isolated from the husk of pomegranate (Punica granatum) by activity-guided purification. They were identified as ellagic acid and punicalagin with IC_50 values of 3.9 x10^-6 and 4.1x10^-7 M and Ki values of 2.4x10^-5 and 5.9x10^-7 M, respectively. The compounds were non-competitive inhibitors with a substrate in the Dixon plot. Ellagic acid and punicalagin were less inhibitory to α-secretase (TACE) and other serine proteases such as ChymoTrypsin, Trypsin, and elastase, thus indicating that they were relatively specific inhibitors of BACE1.

A β-Secretase (BACE1) Inhibitor Hispidin from the Mycelial Cultures of Phellinus linteus
Planta medica, 2004Co-Authors: In-hye Park, So-young Jeon, Hee-ju Lee, Sang-in Kim, Kyung-sik SongAbstract:In the course of screening for anti-dementia agents from natural products, a beta-secretase (BACE1) inhibitor was isolated from the culture broth of Phellinus linteus and identified as hispidin. It showed an IC (50) value of 4.9 x 10 (-6) M and a Ki value of 8.4 x 10 (-6) M. The compound was a non-competitive inhibitor. Hispidin also inhibited a prolyl endopeptidase (IC (50) = 1.6 x 10 (-5) M, Ki = 2.4 x 10 (-5) M), but it was less inhibitory to alpha-secretase (TACE) and other serine proteases such as ChymoTrypsin, Trypsin, and elastase.

A prolyl endopeptidase-inhibiting antioxidant from Phyllanthus ussurensis.
Archives of pharmacal research, 2003Co-Authors: Shin-kyo Chung, So-young Jeon, Hee-ju Lee, Sang-in Kim, Ji-ae Nam, Tai Ho Chung, Kyung-sik SongAbstract:A prolyl endopeptidase inhibitor was isolated from the ethyl acetate soluble fraction ofPhyllanthus ussurensis. The active compound was identified as an ellagitannin, corilagin. It was shown to non-competitively inhibit prolyl endopeptidase (PEP) with the IC50 value of 1.17x10-6 μM. TheKi value was 6.70x10-7 M. Corilagin was less inhibitory to other serine proteases such as ChymoTrypsin, Trypsin, and elastase, indicating that it was relatively a specific inhibitor of PEP. Corilagin also effectively inhibited reactive oxygen species such as hydroxide and superoxide anion radical, hydrogen peroxide, and DPPH. Especially, corilagin showed potent scavenging activity on the superoxide anion radical in the ESR method (IC50 = 3.79x10-6 M) as well as xanthine oxidase system.

A prolyl endopeptidase-inhibiting benzofuran dimer from Polyozellus multiflex.
Journal of natural products, 2002Co-Authors: Kyung-sik Song, Ilya RaskinAbstract:A new benzofuran dimer, 5,6,5‘,6‘-tetrahydroxy[3,3‘]bibenzofuranyl-2,2‘-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester (kynapcin-24), was isolated from Polyozellus multiflex and shown to noncompetitively inhibit prolyl endopeptidase (PEP), with an IC50 value of 1.14 μM. Kynapcin-24 was less inhibitory to other serine proteases such as ChymoTrypsin, Trypsin, and elastase.

Soybean Saponins. IV. The Effect of Proteins on the Inhibitory Activity of Soybean Saponins on Certain Enzymes
Journal of Food Science, 2006Co-Authors: Isaac Ishaaya, Yehudith BirkAbstract:SUMMARY Soybean saponins were found to inhibit, to a certain extent, cholinesterase and the proteolytic activity of ChymoTrypsin, Trypsin, papain, and Tribolium castaneum larval midgut enzyme solution. It has been shown that this nonspecific inhibition results from a protein (i.e., enzyme) saponin interaction, since pre-incubation of the saponin with various proteins prior to enzyme-substrate interaction could abolish the inhibitory effect of the saponins.
