Michal, Vojtěch: STUDY OF BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF ISOLATED ALKALOIDS FROM ARGEMONE GRANDIFLORA (PAPAVERACEAE) II. Diploma thesis 2015. Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Department of Pharmaceutical Botany and Ecology. Supervisor: PharmDr. Jakub Chlebek, PhD. Key words: Argemone grandiflora Sweet, Papaveraceae, alkaloids, isolation, acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, prolyloligopeptidase, Alzheimerʼs disease, in vitro assay. Diethylether alkaloid extract obtained from stem and roots of Argemone grandiflora Sweet was chromatografically analyzed. Using common chromatografic methods, three alkaloids were isolated in clean form. These substances were identified as allocryptopine, (-)-munitagine and (-)-norargemonine by structural analysis (MS, NMR). These obtained alkaloids were tested for their inhibitory activity against human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and human plasma butyrylcholinestrase (BuChE) by Ellman's method. The results were represented as IC50 values (allocryptopine: IC50 AChE = 250,0 ± 2,52 μM, IC50 BuChE = 530 ± 28,2 μM; (-)-munitagine: IC50 AChE = 62,29 ± 5,81 μM, IC50 BuChE = 837,4 ± 23,03 μM; (-)-norargemonine: IC50 AChE = 205,17 ± 11,6 μM, IC50 BuChE = 4158,20 ± 495,78 μM). Inhibition against prolyloligopeptidase was tested for...
