Studies on the various biological functions of the constituents from edible fruits

为了阐明食用果实的多种生物学功能，我们对番茄、笃斯越桔、茄属Solanum melongena L.，Schinus molle L.，和蔓荆子（Vitex agnus-castus L.）中分离鉴定了98个化合物，其中20个为新化合物。此外，还对该果实的提取物和部分成分进行了抗氧化活性、抗癌细胞增殖活性、抗痛风活性和抗炎活性的研究，部分提取物和成分显示出活性。

For the elucidation of the various biological functions of the edible fruits, we studied on the constituents from the fruits of Lycopersicon esculentum, Vaccinium uliginosum L., Solanum melongena L., Schinus molle L., and Vitex agnus-castus L.These studies resulted in the isolation and structural elucidation of 98 compounds including 20 new compounds. In addition, antioxidative activities, antiproliferative activity against cancer cells, antigout activity, and antiinflammation activity of the extracts and some constituents from the fruits were examined and some extracts and constituents showed the activities.
