Apigenin Ameliorates HO-Induced Oxidative Damage in Melanocytes through Nuclear Factor-E2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2) and Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase (PI3K)/Protein Kinase B (Akt)/Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) Pathways and Reducing the Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in Zebrafish.

Apigenin is one of the natural flavonoids found mainly in natural plants, as well as some fruits and vegetables, with celery in particular being the most abundant. Apigenin has antioxidant, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer effects. In this research, we attempted to further investigate the effects of apigenin on the mechanism of repairing oxidative cell damage.

Structurally Diverse Polymethylated Phloroglucinol Meroterpenoids from Baeckea frutescens.

Phytochemical investigation of the MeOH extract of twigs and leaves of Baeckea frutescens led to the isolation of seven new polymethylated phloroglucinol meroterpenoids (PPMs), named baeckfrutones M-S (1-7). Their structures and absolute configurations were determined by spectroscopic analyses, chiral-phase HPLC analysis, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. PPM 1 is a novel meroterpenoid possessing a 6/6/5/3 tetracyclic skeleton in PPMs, whereas 3 and 4 are the first hydroxytasmanone type phloroglucinol-monoterpene hybrids.
