The interest of medicinal plants as therapeutic agents against diseases such as Alzheimer, skin disorders and diabetes mellitus is growing. In order to investigate the influence of Haplophyllum myrtifolium, four solvent extracts (petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, methanol and water) were screened for antioxidant potentials, anti-cholinesterase, anti-tyrosinase, anti-amylase and anti-glycosidase activity. Antioxidant effects were elucidated by different assays including free radical scavenging (ABTS, DPPH and NO assay), reducing power (FRAP and CUPRAC), phosphomolybdenum, β-carotene/linoleic acid system and metal chelating. Total phenolic, flavonoid, flavanol, tannin and saponin contents in these extracts were also calculated. Generally, ethyl acetate extract showed the strongest antioxidant activity in these extracts. This activity may be related to a good total phenolic content. The total phenolic contents of these extracts ranged from 32.32 to 52.50. mg GAEs/g extract. Except for water extract, all extracts showed good inhibitory activities on cholinesterase, tyrosinase, amylase and glycosidase. Apolar extracts (petroleum ether and ethyl acetate) were more potent as enzyme inhibitors in comparison to polar extracts (methanol and water). These findings reveal that H. myrtifolium could be used a source of natural compounds for the management of oxidative damage, Alzheimer, skin disorders and diabetes mellitus. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.

Mertensia maritima (L.) Gray is threatened with extinction owing to climate change, poor seed germination, and ocean warming. In vitro explant-culture is used for ex situ preservation and plantlet massive production. In vitro cell and organ cultures serve as an alternative plant material source to investigate the biological activities and phytochemical profiles of rare plants. We aimed to develop an efficient callus and shoot production protocol and investigate bioactive metabolites, antioxidants, and enzyme inhibitory potential of M. maritima calli, shoots, and in vivo seedlings. The effects of combinations of different plant growth regulators, 6-BA (N6-benzyladenine), 6-KN (Kinetin), TDZ (Thidiazuron), and NAA (1-Naphthylacetic acid), in MS (Murashige and Skoog) nutrient medium were studied. The highest callus proliferation was obtained after 5-week cultivation over a 16-h photoperiod on growth medium MS enriched with 4 µM each of 6-BA and NAA. The medium with 2 µM 6-BA and 4 µM 6-KN had the best shoot induction rate (91.1%) with a mean of 13.4 shoots. The combination of two cytokinins (6-BA and 6-KN) was found to be effective in M. maritima shoot regeneration. The rooting frequency was 100% in12 MS with Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA 2 µM). The number of detected compounds and chemical composition in the M. maritima shoots and seedlings extracts were similar. The total amount of phenolics in the shoots was 216.4% and 369.5% higher than in seedlings and calli, respectively. The total amount of flavonoids in the shoots was 241.1% and 429.3% higher than in seedlings and calli, respectively. The best antioxidant activity was obtained in the shoots, followed by seedlings and calli. However, the order was seedlings > calli > shoots regarding metal chelating ability. The strongest acetylcholinesterase inhibition properties were obtained in the calli, followed by seedlings and shoots. However, the tested samples can be ranked as seedlings > shoots > calli in butylcholinestrase inhibition assay. This study is the first report on the enzyme inhibitory effects of M. maritima extracts, providing valuable contributions to the scientific community.
