Quercetin is a flavonoid that is found in many plant materials, including commonly eaten fruits and vegetables. The compound is well known for its wide range of biological activities. In this study, 5-O-acyl derivatives of quercetin were synthesised and assessed for their antiproliferative activity against the HCT116 colon cancer and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines; and their radical scavenging activity against the 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical cation and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical species. Four derivatives were found to have improved the antiproliferative activity compared to quercetin whilst retaining radical scavenging activity.

Aqueous ethanol extracts prepared from 19 apple (Malus ×domestica Borkh.) cultivars were studied to explore their antiproliferative activity. Half of them showed strong inhibition on proliferation of human leukemic HL-60 cells, while the others were weak. Total polyphenols, 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, and total anthocyanins were measured and the results indicated that the antiproliferative activity was more strongly correlated to the polyphenols and radical scavenging activity than to the anthocyanin content. Several polyphenols in `Jonathan' were identified and quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. Among those compounds found during HPLC, catechin and epicatechin seemed partially responsible for HL-60 antiproliferation. A careful examination on parentage of the apple cultivars tested revealed that `Jonathan' and its progeny showed high antiproliferation toward HL-60. This is the first observation about the relationship between antiproliferative activity and parentage of apples, and the information would be useful to create new apple cultivars that posses more anticancer potential.

The stem bark of Polyalthia simiarum has yielded a new bisnor-type clerodane diterpenoid, 2-oxo-14,15-bisnor-3,11 E-kolavadien-13-one (1), and three previously known clerodane derivatives, kolavenic acid (2), 16β-hydroxycleroda-3,13(14) Z-dien-15,16-olide (3), and 16-oxocleroda-3,13(14) E-dien-15-oic acid (4). The structures of these compounds were unambiguously determined by extensive NMR studies as well as by comparison with related compounds. Till now this is the second report of the occurrence of any unusual C-18 clerodane diterpenoid from nature. The crude light petroleum extract and the purified compound 3 demonstrated moderate free radical scavenging activity with IC50 values of 21.5 and 23.5 μg/mL, respectively.
