Abstract:
A novel icariin type flavonoid glycoside with a malonaldehydic acid intramolecular ester and two known flavonoid glycosides were isolated from Epimedium pseudowushanense. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and comparison of their data to the values reported in the literatures. The anti-inflammatory activities of these compounds icariin 3'''-O-malonaldehydic acid intramolecular 1'''', 2''' ester (1), icariin (2) and epimedin C (3) were tested. The results indicated that compounds 1, 2 and 3 showed maximal inhibitory ratio of 27.91, 44.80 and 46.61%, respectively in in vitro anti-inflammatory activity on LPS-induced TNF-α secretion in RAW264.7 cells. Compounds icariin (2) and epimedin C (3) were found to inhibit the secretion of TNF-α to a comparable degree as quercetin.

Types of RNA
Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.
