Moringin and Its Structural Analogues as Slow H2S Donors: Their Mechanisms and Bioactivity
J. Agric. Food Chem. 2020, 68, 27
Abstract
Moringin (rhamnobenzyl isothiocyanate) is a major bioactive compound in moringa seeds, which have been used as a healthy food. However, its bioactivity mechanisms are not well understood. We investigated moringin and its structurally similar analogues, including benzyl isothiocyanate and 4-hydroxylbenzyl isothiocyanate, for their hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-releasing activity triggered by cysteine. These isothiocyanates rapidly formed cysteine adducts, which underwent intramolecular cyclization followed by slowly releasing (a) organic amine and raphanusamic acid and (b) H2S and 2-carbylamino-4,5-dihydrothiazole-4-carboxylic acids. The product distributions are highly dependent on para-substituents on the phenyl group. Moringin has higher cytotoxicity to cancer cells and is a more potent anti-inflammatory agent than benzyl and hydroxybenzyl analogues, while benzyl isothiocyanate is a better antibacterial agent. Taken together, their bioactivity may not be directly related to their H2S donation activity. However, other metabolites alone do not have cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory activity. These findings indicated that their activity may be the combination effects of different metabolites via competitive pathways as well the para-substituent groups of benzyl ITCs.
Moringin, A Stable Isothiocyanate from Moringa oleifera, Activates the Somatosensory and Pain Receptor TRPA1 Channel In Vitro
Molecules February 2020 25(4):976
Abstract
Moringa oleifera Lam. is a tropical plant widely used in traditional medicines and as a food supplement. It is characterized by the presence of glucosinolates and isothiocyanates; the stable isothiocyanate 4-[(α-l-rhamnosyloxy)benzyl]isothiocyanate (moringin) has been widely studied for its bioactivity as hypoglycemic, antimicrobial, anticancer and in particular for its involvement in nociception and neurogenic pain. Moringa extracts and pure moringin were submitted to in vitro assays with the somatosensory TRPA1 ion channel, proving that moringin is a potent and effective agonist of this receptor involved in nociceptive function and pain states. Moringin do not activate or activates very weakly the vanilloids somatosensory channels TRPV1,2,3 and 4, and the melastatin cooling receptor TRPM8. The comparison of moringin’s activity with other known agonists of natural origin is also discussed.
