Chatuphalatika is a traditional Thai polyherbal formulation whose metabolically active fraction has not been identified. This study fractionated the aqueous extract (CPT) by sequential liquid–liquid partitioning to obtain solvent fractions. The ethyl acetate fraction (CPTX) had the highest total phenolic content and was enriched in hydrolyzable tannins, particularly chebulagic acid. CPTX showed the strongest inhibitory activity against HMG-CoA reductase in vitro. In vivo, C57BL/6 mice were fed a high-fat diet for 12 weeks, then treated with CPT, CPTX, or silymarin for 8 weeks while high-fat diet feeding continued. Both CPT and CPTX improved serum lipid profiles. High-dose CPTX (500 mg/kg) additionally reduced fasting blood glucose, serum ALT, and relative liver weight, without affecting body weight or adipose tissue weights. These findings indicate that phenolic enrichment concentrates the hepatic and lipid-lowering activity of Chatuphalatika. HMG-CoA reductase inhibition was used as a screening criterion to identify CPTX as the active fraction; the in vivo hepatometabolic improvements are consistent with, but do not directly confirm, modulation of cholesterol biosynthesis and hepatic lipid metabolism.

Background/Objectives: The emergence of drug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum highlights the need for new antiplasmodial compounds with distinct mechanisms of action. Microbial secondary metabolites, particularly from Streptomyces species, remain important sources of bioactive molecules. This study aimed to evaluate antiplasmodial metabolites associated with a Mongolian Streptomyces isolate. Methods: Streptomyces sp. strain D10 was isolated from Mongolian soil samples and extracted with ethyl acetate. Bioassay-guided fractionation was performed, followed by LC–HRMS analysis and GNPS-based spectral dereplication. Antiplasmodial activity was evaluated against P. falciparum 3D7, K1, and Dd2 strains using a SYBR Green I assay. Cytotoxicity was assessed in HSF cells. Stage-specific susceptibility assays were conducted using synchronized 3D7 parasites. Comparative docking analyses against β-hematin and the chloroquine resistance transporter (PfCRT), together with target prediction and molecular docking analyses, were performed to explore potential mechanisms. In vivo efficacy was evaluated using a Plasmodium yoelii 17XNL mouse model. Results: Fractionation yielded an active fraction (C2), and LC–HRMS and GNPS-based dereplication suggested a bile acid-like metabolite, with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) returned as a putative spectral library candidate associated with fraction C2. Fraction C2 and UDCA showed comparable antiplasmodial activity against P. falciparum 3D7 (IC₅₀ = 6.55 ± 3.00 and 4.68 ± 0. 65 µg/mL, respectively) without detectable cytotoxicity up to 200 µg/mL. Activity was retained against multidrug-resistant K1 and Dd2 strains. Stage-specific assays demonstrated inhibitory activity across ring, trophozoite, and schizont stages without significant stage-dependent differences. Comparative docking analyses suggested interaction profiles distinct from chloroquine in β-hematin and PfCRT models. Additional docking analyses identified PfGluPho, PfMAPK, and PfPFT-β as potential targets. In vivo, UDCA reduced parasitemia in a dose-dependent manner without significant toxicity. Conclusions: UDCA exhibited moderate antiplasmodial activity across in vitro, in silico, and in vivo evaluations with a favorable selectivity profile, supporting further investigation of bile acid-like metabolites as potential antimalarial scaffolds.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a global health challenge characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and oxidative stress. Pithecellobium dulce root has long been recognized for its antidiabetic potential; however, its specific bioactive constituents and mechanisms of action remain poorly defined. This study aimed to evaluate the antidiabetic and antioxidant properties of extracts and isolated molecules from P. dulce root bark. Methods: The DCM/MeOH crude extract of P. dulce root bark was fractionated with n-hexane (PDEH) and ethyl acetate (PDAE), followed by chromatographic purification and spectroscopic characterization, yielding seventeen compounds (1–17). The antioxidant activity (DPPH, ABTS, FRAP) and antidiabetic potential of PDEH, PDAE, and 1–17 were assessed in vitro using yeast-derived enzymes and in silico (targeting human α-glucosidase [PDB: 2QLY] and human α-amylase [PDB: 4GQR]). The in vitro α-glucosidase experiments used saccharomyces cerevisiae enzyme, which varies from the human target. Therefore, these results should be taken as preliminary screening data that needs confirmation with human enzymes. Results: Compound 1 was identified as new, while 2 was isolated for the first time from a natural source. The cell-free chemical tests DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP measured antioxidant capability. These tests quantify radical-scavenging and electron-transfer capabilities in vitro and are preliminary chemical screening methods. They do not directly represent biological antioxidant activity in cells or organisms. PDEH demonstrated strong radical scavenging against DPPH (IC₅₀ = 15.30 μg/mL) and ABTS (IC₅₀ = 12.80 μg/mL), while pristriol (16) showed ferric reducing power (EC₅₀ = 4200 μM FeSO₄/g). Enzyme inhibition assays demonstrated activity against α-amylase (IC₅₀ 53.88–112.24 µg/mL; acarbose IC₅₀ = 91.20 µg/mL) and α-glucosidase (IC₅₀ 18.38–136.88 µg/mL; acarbose IC₅₀ = 11.31 µg/mL). Compounds 15, 1, and 2 showed superior activity compared to acarbose for α-amylase, with effect sizes (Cohen’s d) of 2.15, 0.94, and 0.82, respectively, and IC₅₀ values of 53.88, 88.15, and 92.62 µg/mL; for α-glucosidase, IC₅₀ values were 18.38, 39.25, and 36.40 µg/mL, respectively. Docking studies supported these findings, revealing binding energies of −9.08, −8.34, and −7.22 kcal/mol for compounds 1, 2, and 15 with α-amylase, and −10.35 and −9.79 kcal/mol for compounds 1 and 2 with α-glucosidase. ADME profiling further identified 1 and 2 as promising lead candidates for dual-enzyme inhibition. Conclusions: P. dulce root bark represents a potent source of bioactive molecules with both antioxidant and dual-enzyme-inhibitory properties. These findings validate its traditional use and highlight its potential in the development of multitarget therapies for T2DM management. Full article

In this work, we extracted silk fibroin (SF) via a tertiary solvent system (CaCl₂:Ethanol:H₂O) and then blended it with chitosan (CS) solution to construct microparticles using the water-in-oil-emulsion–diffusion method. For the mixture of SF/CS solution aqueous phase (W) was prepared at ratios of 4:0, 3:1, 1:1, 1:3, and 0:4, using ethyl acetate as the oil phase (O). After the microparticles were prepared, their morphology was examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The optimal preparation conditions were determined to be a 1% (w/v) aqueous phase with a volume of 1 milliliter, 100 milliliters of oil phase, and a stirring speed of 700 rpm. The average microparticle size was 50–100 micrometers. ATR−FTIR spectra showed unique functional groups of SF and CS, as well as interactions between the two polymers. The results of the thermal property study using a TGA instrument showed that SF microparticles had a higher maximum decomposition temperature (T_d,max) than chitosan, and the blended microparticles’ T_d,max increased with the proportion of SF. Most microparticles exhibited a semi-crystalline polymer structure, with SF microparticles being the most hydrophobic, followed by blended microparticles and CS, respectively. Testing for absorption capacity, the SF microparticles were more effective at absorbing used engine oil than vegetable oil and chloroform, while CS microparticles showed the highest capacity for vegetable oil. The experimental results indicated that all SF/CS blended particles played an efficiency of absorption variable by ratios of SF or CS blended. This suggested that the prepared microparticles might be useful for oil/water separation application. Full article

Background/Objectives: Vernodalin (VD) and crude extracts from Gymnanthemum extensum leaves have previously demonstrated anticancer activity; however, their underlying molecular effects remain incompletely understood. This study investigated the anticancer activities of VD and G. extensum extracts and characterized their associated molecular responses in breast (MDA-MB-231) and ovarian (A2780) cancer cells. Methods: G. extensum leaves were extracted with dichloromethane and ethyl acetate to obtain DEGE and EAGE, respectively. VD was isolated from EAGE and characterized by ¹H-NMR and HPLC. Phytochemical profiles of the extracts were analyzed by GC-MS and HPLC. Cytotoxicity, clonogenic survival, cell cycle progression, migration, and protein expression were evaluated using MTT assay, colony formation assay, flow cytometry, wound healing assay, and Western blotting. Results: GC–MS analysis revealed distinct phytochemical compositions between DEGE and EAGE, although both extracts contained high levels of neophytadiene and phytol. VD, DEGE, and EAGE inhibited cell proliferation and migration in both cancer cell lines. VD suppressed proteins associated with cancer progression, including SMYD3, BRAF, MELK, FOXM1, Cyclin B1, MDR1/ABCB1, and MMP-9, with molecular responses differing between MDA-MB-231 and A2780 cells. DEGE and EAGE exhibited molecular regulatory patterns distinct from those of purified VD, suggesting contributions from multiple phytochemical constituents. Conclusions: VD and G. extensum crude extracts exhibit significant in vitro anticancer activity against breast and ovarian cancer cells and induce distinct molecular responses. The differential effects of DEGE and EAGE may be attributable to differences in their phytochemical constituents. Full article

The cone berries of Juniperus communis L. are rich in bioactive compounds, but biological properties of extracts are strongly influenced by the solvents used to obtain them. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of solvent fractionation on the targeted polyphenolic profile and associated antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer activities of pseudo-fruit extracts. The crude ethanolic extract was subjected to liquid–liquid partitioning to obtain ethyl acetate and n-butanol-soluble fractions, which were characterized by HPLC–MS and FTIR, while total polyphenol content was determined using the Folin–Ciocâlteu method and biological activities were assessed through DPPH, antimicrobial assays, and in vitro cytotoxicity on A375 melanoma and HaCaT keratinocyte cell lines. The ethyl acetate-soluble fraction showed the highest polyphenol content (361.08 ± 17.72 mg chlorogenic acid equivalents/g extract) and was enriched in hyperoside, whereas the n-butanol-soluble fraction contained lower phenolic levels and higher rutoside content; both fractions exhibited antioxidant activity correlated with phenolic content and weak-to-moderate antimicrobial activity, particularly against Streptococcus pyogenes. Cytotoxicity assays revealed a dose-dependent antiproliferative effect, with the ethyl acetate fraction displaying higher activity and greater selectivity toward melanoma cells, confirmed by apoptosis-related morphological changes. These findings demonstrate that solvent polarity plays a critical role in enriching bioactive phytochemicals and support the potential of J. communis fractions as sources of antioxidant and selective anticancer compounds.

Background/Objectives: Dioscorea batatas Decne (yam), which contains various bioactive compounds, has been utilized in the cosmetics industry, while most of the peel of D. batatas (DBP) is discarded without further use. Recent studies have shown that DBP contains higher levels of bioactive substances than the rhizome flesh. The aim of this study was to evaluate the skin biological activities of DBP extracts obtained using 70% ethanol (70% EtOH DBP), 95% ethanol (95% EtOH DBP), and ethyl acetate (EA DBP), with particular attention to their antioxidant-associated protective effects. Methods: Skin-related bioactivities of DBP extracts prepared using ultrasonic extraction were evaluated using in vitro tyrosinase and matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) assays, alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH)-induced melanogenesis in B16F10 cells, ultraviolet B (UVB)-irradiated HaCaT viability assays, and Western blot analysis of pro-collagen type I alpha 1(Pro-COL1A1) and MMP-1 in HDF cells. In addition, the ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities of DBP extracts and representative DBP derivatives were assessed. Results: DBP extracts inhibited tyrosinase activity in vitro and reduced melanogenesis in B16F10 cells. DBP extracts also protected skin cells from UVB by increasing the viability of UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells. In UVB-irradiated HDF cells, DBP extracts restored Pro-COL1A1 expression and suppressed MMP-1 levels. Additionally, DBP extracts inhibited MMP-1 activity in a concentration-dependent manner. The DBP extracts themselves exhibited ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities, with EA DBP showing the highest vitamin C equivalent antioxidant capacity among the tested extracts. Representative DBP-derived phenanthrene compounds also showed radical scavenging activities, supporting the antioxidant potential of peel-derived phytochemicals. Conclusions: These findings indicate that DBP extracts possess skin-whitening and anti-photoaging effects and suggest that these protective activities may be associated with the antioxidant potential of both DBP extracts and DBP derivatives.

A new method has been established for determining trace amounts of platinum in water using ion liquid (IL)-dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) combined with graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy (GFAAS). The method is based on the use of a self-prepared reagent, 5-(5-cyano-2-pyridineazo)-2,4-diaminotoluene (5-CN-PADAT), as a chelating agent, which reacts with Pt(IV) to form a hydrophobic chelate. The extraction solvent is 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C₈mim][PF₆]), and ethyl acetate is used as the dispersive solvent. After the extraction is completed, the extraction phase formed by [C₈mim][PF₆] and ethyl acetate has a relatively low viscosity and can be directly used for the determination of GFAAS. A single-factor rotational method was employed to optimize conditions affecting DLLME extraction efficiency. The interactions among the factors affecting DLLME were analyzed using response surface optimization (RSM). Under optimal conditions, platinum concentrations exhibited good linearity within the range of 40–280 ng/mL, with a detection limit of 0.3 ng/mL. AGREEprep was used to discuss the ecological friendliness of the method, demonstrating its low cost, ease of operation, simple equipment requirements, and environmental friendliness. When applied to determining trace amounts of platinum in water samples, the results were satisfactory. Full article

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most prevalent allergic disorders worldwide. Current pharmacological treatments are often limited by suboptimal efficacy and notable adverse effects. Herbal medicines, with their multi-component and multi-target therapeutic characteristics, have attracted increasing attention. Artemisia ordosica Krasch. (AOK), a traditional Chinese/Mongolian medicine has demonstrated immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities. The anti-AR potential of AOK extract fractions was evaluated using in vitro mast cell degranulation inhibition assays, network pharmacology analysis, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations to elucidate underlying pharmacological mechanisms. The P815 mast cell model induced by compound 48/80 was employed to assess the inhibitory activity and cytotoxicity of different extract fractions. Among the tested fractions, the ethyl acetate fraction exhibited the most potent inhibitory effect on mast cell degranulation without significant cytotoxicity. Network pharmacology analysis identified 254 potential AR-related targets of AOK, with Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3(STAT3), Src protein(SRC), Tumor protein 53(TP53), AKT Serine/Threonine Kinase 1(AKT1), Heat Shock Protein 90 Alpha Family Class A Member 1(HSP90AA1), Estrogen Receptor 1(ESR1), and Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha(PIK3CA) identified as key hub proteins. Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses indicated that AOK primarily modulated inflammatory and oxidative stress-related processes through the lipid and atherosclerosis, hypoxia-inducible factor-1, and AGE-RAGE signaling pathways. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations demonstrated strong binding affinities and stable interactions between major active constituents, particularly hydroxygenkwanin, and key targets such as SRC. The ethyl acetate fraction of AOK extract exhibited significant mast cell degranulation inhibitory activity, likely mediated via a synergistic multi-component, multi-target mechanism involving regulation of inflammatory and immune-related signaling pathways. These findings provide a pharmacological basis for the potential application of AOK in AR treatment. Full article

Syzygium polyanthum (Wight) Walp., commonly known as Indonesian bay leaf or Daun salam, is widely used as a culinary and traditional botanical resource. However, region-specific information on its lipophilic constituents remains limited, and the sustainability implications of solvent-dependent phytochemical profiling are rarely addressed. This study characterized the GC–MS-detectable volatile lipophilic constituents of a selected nonpolar fraction of S. polyanthum leaves collected from Paniki Bawah, Mapanget District, Manado, Indonesia, using GC–MS, while evaluating solvent-related limitations for future greener extraction strategies. Dried leaf powder was macerated with 96% ethanol, followed by liquid–liquid partitioning with n-hexane and ethyl acetate. The n-hexane fraction was separated by silica gel column chromatography, and a TLC-selected fraction was analyzed by GC–MS. Compound annotation was supported by NIST 17 library matching, retention-index comparison using a C8–C40 n-alkane series, diagnostic ion evaluation, solvent blank analysis, and triplicate injections. Ethanolic extraction of 900 g dried powder yielded 87.0 g crude extract (9.67%). The n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and aqueous fractions yielded 5.98%, 21.15%, and 72.87%, respectively. GC–MS analysis tentatively annotated 11 compounds representing 94.44% of the total normalized peak area. The major constituents were palmitic acid, phytol, squalene, and neophytadiene. All annotations showed match scores of 90–98%, ΔRI values of 4–8 units, and RSD values of 1.86–3.27%. Although ethanol use, sunlight drying, solvent recovery, and recirculating chiller-assisted evaporation partially aligned with green chemistry principles, the use of n-hexane and chloroform means that the workflow should not be described as fully green. This study provides a baseline GC–MS fingerprint to support future greener extraction optimization. Full article

Thirteen new decaline polyketides, namely, zosteropenillines T–W (1–4), 8-hydroxypallidopenilline A (5), 13-epi-zosteropenilline P (6), 11-epi-zosteropenilline N (7), 15-hydroxyzosteropenilline M (8), 8-hydroxyzosteropenilline M (9), 11-epi-zosteropenilline M (10), and zosteropenillines X–Z (11–13), along with 17 known related compounds (14–30) were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of the marine-derived fungus Penicillium yezoense KMM 4679 cultivated on MgCl₂-containing nutrient medium. The structures of the isolated compounds were established based on spectroscopic methods. The absolute configurations of zosteropenillines T (1) and V (3) were determined using time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations of the ECD spectra. X-ray diffraction analysis data were obtained for the known zosteropenilline S (28). A biogenetic pathway for 1–13 was proposed. The effects of the compounds on Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans growth and biofilm formation were observed. Zosteropenillines U (2), Y (12) and Z (13) with higher activity against C. albicans biofilms were nontoxic for normal cardiomyocyte H9c2 cells, making them promising anti-candidal agents. Moreover, zosteropenillines U and Y demonstrated cardioprotective effects in acute ischemia/reperfusion and CoCl₂-mimicking hypoxia in vitro models. Full article

This study aimed to separate and characterize compounds from Aspergillus tubingensis ZMGR14. The antifungal activities of monomer compounds and the ethyl acetate (EtOAc) layer from the fermented liquor of A. tubingensis were isolated, purified and structurally identified. The EtOAc layer from the fermented liquor showed significant antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum and Alternaria alternata with IC₅₀ values of 273.8 and 330.7 μg·mL⁻¹, respectively. The EtOAc extract was further purified by column chromatography and recrystallization to yield six compounds. Antifungal trials showed that Cyclo-(L-Pro-D-Leu) (5) exhibited the highest inhibition against A. alternata and F. oxysporum, with an IC₅₀ value of 48.1 and 232.7 μM, respectively, and cyclo-(L-Pro-L-Leu) (6) displayed moderate antifungal activity against Alternaria solani, with an IC₅₀ value of 493.4 μM. The results suggest that the EtOAc extract of ZMGR14 and its bioactive compounds hold promise as environmentally friendly microbial fungicides. Full article

Guaje (Leucaena leucocephala), mezquite (Prosopis laevigata), and guamuchil (Pithecellobium dulce) are leguminous trees distributed throughout southeastern Mexico. Their pods and seeds constitute the main agroecological residues and represent a natural source of secondary metabolites with high biotechnological potential. The aim of this study was to determine the chemical composition, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, and toxicity of the pods and seeds of L. leucocephala, P. laevigata, and P. dulce. It was found that pod extracts contained higher concentrations of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and terpenes than seed extracts. Antimicrobial assays showed inhibition zones ranging from 8.1–14.7 mm (E. coli), 8.8–15.1 mm (S. aureus), 11.3–15.4 mm (E. faecalis), 8.9–24.1 mm (C. albicans), and 8.5–22.6 mm (C. krusei). The ethyl acetate (AVPD) and ethanolic (EVPD) extracts from P. dulce pods showed the highest antimicrobial activity, with MIC values ranging from 0.03 to 0.15 mg/mL, MBC values of 0.07 mg/mL (S. aureus and E. faecalis), and MFC values of 1.25 mg/mL (C. albicans) and 0.62 mg/mL (C. krusei). Antioxidant activity was higher in pod extracts, with AVPD and EVPD showing IC₅₀ values of 0.257 and 0.320 mg/mL, respectively. Consistently, EVPD exhibited the highest phenolic content (133.24 mg GAE/g) and flavonoid content (50.90 mg QE/g), followed by AVPD (87.29 mg GAE/g and 42.40 mg QE/g, respectively). The results indicate that pod extracts of L. leucocephala and P. dulce contain secondary metabolites with broad antimicrobial and antioxidant potential and low toxicity. Full article

Background/Objectives: Antimicrobial resistance, an evolutionarily entrenched microbial capacity amplified by extensive antibiotic exposure, has increased the burden of difficult-to-treat infections caused by priority pathogens such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. In this study, we assessed whether phytochemical-rich extracts from fully ripe Rosa canina pseudo-fruits (WF) and fully developed Colchicum autumnale flowers (CA) can provide combined antioxidant, antibacterial, and antibiofilm effects against multidrug-resistant clinical isolates. Methods: Plant materials were processed using seven extraction systems spanning non-polar to polar conditions (n-hexane, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, aqueous, 40% ethanol, 60% ethanol, and enzyme-assisted hydrolysis). Fractions were quantified for total phenolics, flavonoids, and tannins, evaluated for antioxidant capacity (DPPH and FRAP), tested for antibacterial activity (disc diffusion and MIC/MBC), and assessed for inhibition of early biofilm attachment. Differences among extraction methods and fractions were analyzed using standard comparative statistics (group comparisons across solvents/fractions), and relationships between chemical composition and bioactivity were examined using correlation-based analysis. Results: Extraction strategy emerged as the main determinant of bioactivity across endpoints. The WFE/ENZ fraction maximized phytochemical recovery (TPC 203.34 ± 11.55 mg GAE/g DW; TFC 35.67 ± 3.06 mg QE/g DW; TTC 53.00 ± 2.65 mg TAE/g DW) and showed strong antioxidant performance (DPPH IC₅₀ 33.60 ± 0.02 μg/mL; FRAP A₇₀₀ 1.90 ± 0.010 at 250 μg/mL). Antibacterial effects were strongest in polar fractions, particularly hydroethanolic and enzyme-assisted extracts, while n-hexane fractions were consistently weakest. Across eight clinical isolates and three reference strains, MIC values ranged from 0.04875 to 6.25 mg/mL for WF extracts and 0.0975–12.5 mg/mL for CA extracts. In the biofilm model, suppression of early attachment was most consistent for CAE/E60–ENZ and WFE/E40–E60–ENZ fractions. Conclusions: Correlation analysis indicated that antibacterial potency aligned primarily with flavonoid levels in R. canina pseudo-fruits and with tannin content in C. autumnale material. Overall, these results support hydroethanolic and enzyme-assisted extraction as rational strategies to enrich polyphenol-dense fractions with convergent antioxidant, antibacterial, and antibiofilm activity, reinforcing plant-derived matrices as a structured discovery space for developing complementary antimicrobial solutions beyond conventional antibiotics. Notably, this is among the first studies to evaluate the antibacterial potential of C. autumnale plant material in this context and to comprehensively assess R. canina pseudo-fruit extracts against multidrug-resistant clinical.

This study comparatively evaluated how solvent polarity affects the chemical antioxidant capacity, preliminary hyaluronidase inhibition, and supportive chemical features of Buddleja officinalis Maxim. Six extracts prepared with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, water, 60% ethanol, and 95% ethanol were assessed using DPPH·, ABTS⁺·, ferric reducing power, and hyaluronidase inhibition assays, together with total flavonoid and linarin determinations. The 60% ethanol extract showed the strongest overall radical-scavenging activity, reaching 95% DPPH· scavenging and 95% ABTS⁺· scavenging at 2 mg/mL, whereas the 95% ethanol extract showed the highest ferric reducing power under the tested conditions. Total flavonoid and linarin contents were highest in the ethanol-rich fractions, especially the 95% ethanol and 60% ethanol extracts. In the hyaluronidase assay, both the petroleum ether and 60% ethanol extracts showed relatively strong inhibition at 2.5 mg/mL, with inhibition rates of 74% and 68%, respectively, suggesting that different chemical classes may contribute to this endpoint. Supportive ¹H NMR and UPLC–QTOF–MS data indicated clear polarity-dependent compositional differences; the 60% ethanol extract was enriched in phenylethanoid glycosides and flavonoid glycosides, whereas the petroleum ether extract showed predominantly lipophilic features. Overall, medium-polarity phenolic-rich fractions were more closely associated with chemical antioxidant capacity, while hyaluronidase inhibition may involve contributions from both non-polar and medium-polarity constituents. The present extract-level comparison provides a useful basis for fraction selection, extract standardization, and follow-up activity-guided studies. Full article
