AB  - A new protein detector of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP, picric acid) is concisely reported herein for the first time. In brief, the gene of a specific scFv fragment, namely 3.5, was fused separately with the gene of beta-lactamase and, subsequently, expressed in the periplasmic space of Escherichia coli, affording in such a way the recombinant fusion protein 3.5-scFv-beta-lactamase. This bifunctional immunoreagent tool was further convincingly demonstrated for being capable to directly detect trinitrophenol-tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (TNP-Tris), a less toxic TNP derivative of choice compared to TNP itself, with competitive sensitivity (50 +/- 2 fmol or 175 +/- 6 pg/mL).

AB  - This study aimed to develop a fast and reliable protocol for Trinitrophenol-Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (TNP-Tris) detection applying a beta-lactamase-fusion protein of choice, the natural product-based immunoreagent tool of competitive sensitivity developed herein for the first time. Since the fusion protein 11B3-scFv-beta-lactamase is constructed from a scFv-antibody (11B3) linked to an enzyme (beta-lactamase), the step related to the use of secondary antibody in the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is completely omitted. Indeed, this fusion protein itself serves both as binding mean of the antigen model and detecting agent, due to the presence of the naturally occurring enzyme. In such a way, it actually affords the one-step TNP-Tris detection reaching a promising LOD value of 45 +/- 2 fmol or 157 +/- 6 pg/mL. Taken all together, the current protocol does represent much cheaper and significantly less-time consuming alternative compared both to the recombinant antibodies and recombinant phages, previously designed means in our labs for the same purpose.

AB  - This study was focused on in vitro cytotoxicity screening of the raspberry seeds methanol extract towards a number of cancer cell lines of human origin. The tested extract at the preferred concentrations (IC50  lt 30 mu g/mL) inhibited only the growth of the lung cancer A-549 cells (IC50 = 14.07 +/- 0.96 mu g/mL). At the same time, it was practically inactive (IC50 >300 mu g/mL) and non-mutagenic towards normal MRC-5 lung cells. Finally, the extract potently scavenged both OH center dot (IC50 = 20.11 +/- 1.77 mu g/mL) and O2-center dot (IC50 = 47.23 +/- 3.82 mu g/mL), the free radicals of proved relevance for cancer pathophysiology. Though seeds were enriched with phenolic compounds (TPC = 5.21 +/- 0.07 mg GAE/g), anthocyanins were present in traces only (TAC = 0.07 +/- 0.003 mg cyn-3-glu/g), while flavonoids were not detected at all. This is the first report on anti-lung cancer potential of the seeds of any soft fruit.

AB  - The cytotoxicity of the methanol extract of the freshwater sponge Ochridaspongia rotunda (Arndt, 1937) (Malawispongiidae) was evaluated by MTT assay at in vitro conditions against three brain tumour cell lines (Neuro-2A, U-251 MG and U-87 MG). The extract was actually found to be most effective against the malignant glioma U-251 MG cells reaching a promising IC50 value of 1.87 +/- 0.09 mu g/mL at 96 h. However, it exhibited only a bit of cytotoxicity (IC50 321.14 +/- 11.29 mu g/mL, 96 h) towards the normal cells. Also, this sponge extract was 5-fold more selective for U-251 MG versus U-87 MG cells. Finally, monitoring genotoxicity at chromosomal level using the micronucleus test practically revealed lack of any significant toxicity of O. rotunda extract, compared to doxorubicin. [GRAPHICS] .

Indeed, direct current (DC) polarographic HydroxoPerhydroxo Mercury(II) Complex (HPMC) assay based on decrease of anodic limiting current originating from HPMC formation in alkaline solutions of hydrogen peroxide at potential of mercury dissolution, observed upon gradual addition of antioxidants, was applied herein for the estimation of the natural products' antioxidativity. Quinic acid was found to exhibit most promising antioxidant potential (4.0 +/- 0.2%mu L-1) being approximate to 2-fold more active than the screened C. comatus extract samples. Actually, such a finding puts some light on the antioxidativity of cyclic polyols, well understimated class of organic compounds, compared to aromatic (poly)phenolics. As a low cost, easy-to handle and accurate this polarographic assay may be thoroughly recommended for much broader use.

AB  - This study aimed to screen in vitro antitumour activity of the redox couple avarol/avarone against the human malignant glioma cell line U-251 MG for the first time. Compared both with avarol and positive controls used (temozolomide and doxorubicin), avarone was found to be the most active compound with IC50 value below 1 mu M (IC50 0.68 +/- 0.04 mu M, 96 h). Considerable less DNA damage in the cells treated with avarol and avarone vs. doxorubicin (105 & 123% vs. 299%, respectively; untreated U-251 MG cells were used as a control, 100%), coupled with no sign of cytotoxicity against the normal human foetal lung fibroblast MRC-5 cells (IC50 > 100 mu M), has actually pointed out the importance of this marine sesquiterpenoid quinone structure as a promising lead compound in development of novel brain chemotherapeutics.

AB  - This review covers the 1994-2014 literature data published for anti-CNS tumour natural products isolated from marine sponges. The focus was on highly potent antitumourics. It describes only eight promising bioactives (screened on even less number of the respective cell lines) suggesting that brain tumours actually represent quite a hot topic for the natural product research community worldwide.

AB  - In vitro evaluation of total phenolic contents and antiradical activities of the lignicolous fungi Fomes fomentarius and Schizophyllum commune hydrodistilled extracts was the subject of this study. This preliminary screening included four free radical species evaluated by UV-vis (DPPH center dot, ABTS(center dot) and (NO)-N-center dot) and EPR (Asc(center dot)), respectively. According to the experimental data obtained, both F. fomentarius and S. commune hydrodistilled extracts may be considered as promising sources of phenolic natural products (157 and 138mg GAE/g d.e., respectively) and other bioactives showing good anti-DPPH (1.31g/mL) and anti-Asc (70.40%) radical activities, respectively, at in vitro conditions.
