Bouz L.: Biological activity of secondary plants metabolites V. Alkaloids of Vinca minor L. Diploma thesis, Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Department of Pharmaceutical Botany and Ecology, Hradec Králové 2016. Summary extract obtained from dried aerial parts of Vinca minor L. was separated by column chromatography with petrol, chloroform and ethanol to 531 fractions. By further separation of fractions, following preparative thin layer chromatography and crystallization 2 alkaloidal compounds marked LB-2 and LB-3 were isolated. These compounds were identified by GC/MS, 1 H- and 13 C-NMR spectroscopy and by use of physical-chemical methods. The structure of compounds were elucidated as indole alkaloids (+)-vincaminoreine (LB-2) and (+)-vincamine (LB-3). Both substances were tested for their inhibition activity against human cholinesterases. (+)-Vincamine didn't exhibited in comparison with standard drugs (galanthamine IC50 AChE: 1,710 ± 0,065 µM, IC50 BChE: 42,30 ± 1,30 µM; huperzine A IC50 AChE: 0,033 ± 0,001 µM) any inhibition activity. On the other hand (+)-vincaminoreine exhibited fairly strong selective inhibition of BChE (IC50 = 8,71 ± 0,49 µM) with no inhibition of AChE. Key words: Vinca minor L., indole alkaloids, vincamine, vincaminoreine, Alzheimer disease,...
