Six new sugar esters (1-6), named tenuifolisides F-G (1-2) and tenuifolioses W-Z (3-6), together with 16 known compounds (7-22) were isolated from the roots of Polygala tenuifolia. The chemical structures of the new compounds were elucidated by 1D, 2D NMR and HRESIMS techniques together with chemical methods. All the compounds were evaluated for the cytoprotective activity against hydrogen peroxide (HO)-induced oxidative stress in human keratinocyte HaCaT cells. Compounds 4, 5, 13, 20 and 22 showed strong cytoprotective effect.

The Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) family is the largest enzyme protein family in plants, distributed across various organs and involved in significant catalytic activities in primary and secondary metabolic processes. In this study, we cloned the gene, characterized its open reading frame (ORF), and conducted comprehensive analyses including physicochemical properties, evolutionary relationships, subcellular localization, prokaryotic expression, and correlation between the relative expression of different parts and the content of tenuifolin, hormones, and abiotic stress response associated with the encoded protein. The ORF of was 1,521 bp, with a secondary structure predominantly composed of α-helices and random coils.
