Abstract
Piper betle L. leaves have been extensively consumed for mastication, mouth freshening, and medicinal purposes throughout the world. These leaves still lacked data, especially on their quality, safety, and efficacy in Bangladesh. This study aimed at evaluation of chemical (elemental: major, minor, trace, and toxic element; volatile and non-volatile organic compounds) and biochemical (antioxidant, antimicrobial, and cytotoxicity) properties in five varieties of Piper betle L. leaves (FBL) var. Bangla, Sanchi, Misti, Khasia, and BARI Paan 3 from Bangladesh.
Inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) analysis of elemental concentrations in FBL were found to be decreasing order of elements (major: K > Ca > Mg > P > Na; minor: Mn > Fe > Sr > Ba > Zn > Cu > Cr > Ni; trace: Ga > Li > V > Cs > Se > U > Be; toxic: Pb > As > Cd > TI). Among the nutritionally important elements, all examined betel leaves were good sources of K (3.99 – 5.86 g/kg), Ca (2.64 – 2.80 g/kg), and Mg (1.26 – 1.33 g/kg). Whereas, potentially all minor and toxic elements were present in safe limit except Mn (21.94 – 25.09 mg/kg) and Pb (129.36 – 965.91 µg/kg) specified by World Health Organization (WHO) / Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
Simultaneous distillation extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SDE/GC-MS) were applied to analyze the volatile organic compound in FBL. The betel leaf variety Misti showed the highest amount of volatile organic compounds (13958.90 mg/kg) followed by BARI Paan 3 (11684.10 mg/kg), Khasia (11109.70 mg/kg), Sanchi (6958.51 mg/kg), and Bangla (4346.91 mg/kg). A total of 101 compounds were identified in this analysis. Out of those, 42 were common in all varieties with different quantities, and the other 59 compounds were not available in each variety. The present research reported 50 new volatile organic compounds in betel leaves for the first time compared to published literature. Eugenol was found in all varieties as a major compound and other main compounds were β-caryophyllene, γ-muurolene, valencene, eucalyptol, chavicol, and caryophyllene oxide.
The non-volatile organic compound screening tests confirmed the presence of different non-volatile organic compound classes like phenol, flavonoids, terpene, steroids, phytosterols, and saponin in FBL. Finding out the optimum parameters for the ultrasonic extraction from betel leaves using response surface methodology (RSM) with central composite circumscribed (CCC) design to maximize the total phenolic content. The solvent was selected as ethanol: acetic acid: water (70%: 5%: 25%, v/v) and the optimal extraction condition was: time 90 min; extraction temperature, 75 °C; solid/liquid ratio, 1:15.41. Followed by, FBL were extracted by the above optimized ultrasonic extraction conditions and their total phenolic and flavonoid contents showed high variation ranging from 110.51 to 322.8 mg GAE/g DW and 46.79 to 57.09 mg QE/g DW, respectively. The major phenolic compound hydroxychavicol was quantified 14.19 mg/g to 38.19 mg/g in FBL by high-performance liquid chromatography–diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) analysis.
The antioxidant activity of IC50 value of 2,2-Diphenyl-1-pycrilhydrazil (DPPH) and 2,2’-Azino-(bis 3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) assay was ranged from 0.17 to 0.43 mg/mL and 0.04 to 0.11 mg/mL, respectively, in FBL extract. The IC50 values of DPPH and ABTS assay were 10.88 to 14.47 µg/mL and 7.66 to 18.00 µg/mL for hydroxychavicol and eugenol, individually, which are the major phenolic compounds. The same extracts were displayed good inhibitory properties against S. typhimurium, P. aeruginosa, E. coli, A. faecalis, and MRSA bacteria compared to other tested bacteria. Khasia and BARI Paan 3 were showed the highest antioxidant and antimicrobial activity than other varieties (Bangla, Sanchi, and Misti). The cytotoxicity activity in FBL extract in respect of 50% cell viability in human epithelial cell (HeLa), human neuroblastoma clonal cell (SH-SY5Y), and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were 0.19 to 0.32 mg/mL, 0.41 to 0.54 mg/mL, and 0.46 to 0.96 mg/mL, respectively. On the other hand, the cytotoxicity activity of 50% cell viability showed 3.14 to 3.21 µg/mL, 5.81 to 6.06 µg/mL, 28.47 to 32.13 µg/mL in HeLa, SH-SY5Y, and MSCs cells; separately for hydroxychavicol and eugenol. In cancer cell lines, an increased cell death rate was observed with an increase in the betel leaf extract concentration but normal cells were unaffected. These results suggested that Piper betle L. leaves could be a potentially good source of bioactive anticancer agents.
In a nutshell, betel leaves were found to be good sources of essential elements, rich sources of volatile and non-volatile organic compounds, with several biochemical activities. Further research studies are needed on the betel leaf to isolate and characterize the identified major volatile and non-volatile organic compounds. The present study will be important for its more valuable and target-specific applications in controlling several diseases related to humans and other animals.|Piper betle L. 잎은 전 세계적으로 저작, 구강청결 및 약용 목적으로 널리 사용된다. 이러한 Piper betel L. 잎은 방글라데시에서 품질, 안전성 및 효능에 대한 데이터가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 5 종류의 Piper betle L. 잎 (FBL) 인 Bangla, Sanchi, Misti, Khasia 및 BARI Pann3 의 품종별 화학적 (무기 원소 : 다량, 미량, 초미량, 독성원소, 휘발성 및 비휘발성 유기화합물) 및 생화학적 (항산화, 항균 및 세포 독성) 특성 평가를 목표로 하였다.
유도결합플라즈마 분광분석기 (ICP-OES) 및 유도결합플라즈마 질량분석기 (ICP-MS) 을 이용한 5종류의 Piper betle L. 의 무기원소 분석결과 (다량 무기원소 : K> Ca> Mg> P> Na; 미량 무기원소 : Mn> Fe> Sr> Ba> Zn> Cu> Cr> Ni; 초미량 무기원소 : Ga> Li> V> Cs> Se> U> Ba; 독성원소 : Pb> As> Cd> Tl) 으로 확인하였다. 영양학적으로 중요한 무기원소 중 분석한 모든 betel 잎에서 K (3.99-5.86 g/kg), Ca (2.64-2.80 g/kg) 및 Mg (1.26-1.33 g/kg) 으로 확인되었다. 반면, 세계 보건기구 (WHO) / 식량 농업기구 (FAO) 에서 지정한 한계 기준 Mn (21.94-25.09 mg/kg) 및 Pb (129.36-965.91 µg/kg) 를 제외한 모든 무기원소에서 안전한 수치로 확인되었다.
동시증류추출 및 가스크로마토그래피 질량분석법 (SDE/GC-MS) 을 사용하여 FBL의 휘발성 유기화합물 분석을 하였다. Betel 잎 중 Misti 종에서 가장 많은양의 휘발성 유기화합물 (13958.90 mg/kg) 이 확인되었으며, BARI Paan3 (11684.10 mg/kg), Khasia (11109.70 mg/kg), Sanchi (6958.51 mg/kg) 및 Bangla (4346.91 mg/kg) 순으로 확인되었다. 휘발성 유기성분 분석을 통하여 총 101종의 화합물을 확인하였다. 이 중 42종의 화합물은 공통으로 발견되었으며, 현재까지 연구된 타 문헌과 비교 시 본 연구를 통하여 betel 잎에서 새로운 50종의 휘발성 화합물을 확인하였다. Eugenol 은 모든 betel 잎에서 주요 화합물로 확인되었으며, 기타 주요 화합물은 β-caryophyllene, γ-muurolene, valencene, eucalyptol, chavicol 및 caryophyllene oxide 이었다.
비휘발성 유기화합물 스크리닝 테스트를 통해 FBL 의 phenol, flavonoids, terpene, steroids, phytosterols 및 saponin을 확인하였다. 또한, CCC 설계(central composite circumscribed)와 RSM (response surface methodology) 을 사용하여 betel 잎에서 초음파 추출을 통한 최적의 총 페놀 함량을 추출하기 위한 방법을 마련하였다. 최종 사용된 용매로 ethanol : acetic acid : water (70 : 5: 25 v/v) 를 선정하였으며, 최적의 추출 조건은 추출 시간 90분, 추출 온도 75℃; 고체/액체 비율 1:15.41로 지정하였다. 확립한 최적의 초음파 추출 조건에 의해 FBL를 추출하였으며, 총 페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량은 각각 110.51-322.8 mg GAE/g DW 및 46.79-57.09 mg QE/g DW로 확인되었다. 이후 주요 페놀 화합물인 hydroxychavicol 를 액체크로마토그래피-다이오드 검출기 (HPLC-DAD) 를 이용하여 FBL의 14.19 mg/g – 38.19 mg/g 으로 정량하였다.
2,2-Diphenyl-1-pycrilhydrazil (DPPH) 및 2,2'-Azino- (bis 3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) 분석 시 FBL 추출물에서 IC50 값의 각각 황산화 활성 0.17-0.43 mg/mL, 0.04-0.11 mg/mL 으로 확인되었다. DPPH 및 ABTS 의 주요 페놀 화합물 IC50 값은 hydroxychavicol 및 eugenol 에 대해 각각 10.88-14.47 µg/mL 및 7.66-18.00 µg/mL이었다. 또한, Betle 잎 추출물은 S. typhimurium, P. aeruginosa, E. coli, A. faecalis, and MRSA 박테리아에 대하여 우수한 억제 특성을 나타냈다. Khasis 와 BARI Paan 3 은 다른 품종 (Bangla, Sanchi, 및 Misti) 보다 높은 항산화 및 항균 활성을 보였다. 인간 상피 세포 (HeLa), 인간 신경 모세포종 클론세포 (SH-SY5Y) 및 중간엽줄기세포 (MSCs) 의 IC50 값에 따른 FBL 추출물의 세포독성 활성은 각각 0.19-0.32 mg/mL, 0.41-0.54 mg/mL, 0.46-0.96 mg/mL 으로 확인되었다. 반면, hydroxychavicol 및 eugenol 의 세포독성활성 (IC50) 은 HeLa, SH-SY5Y 및 MSCs 세포에서 각각 3.14-3.21 µg/mL, 5.81-6.06 µg/mL, 28.47-32.13 µg/mL 을 나타냈다. 암세포중에서 betle 잎의 추출물 농도가 증가하면 암세포의 사멸률이 증가하였으며, 정상세포는 영향을 받지 않았다. 본 연구를 통하여 Piper betle L. 잎이 잠재적으로 생체 활성 항암제 공급원으로 사용될 수 있음을 기대볼 수 있다.
Betle 잎은 여러 가지 생화학적 효능과 함께 필수영양소의 좋은 공급원, 휘발성 및 비휘발성 유기화합물의 공급원으로 확인되었다. Betle 잎에 대한 추가적 연구로 확인된 주요 휘발성 및 비휘발성 유기화합물을 분리 및 특성화하고자한다. 또한, 현재의 연구는 건강 및 기타 동물과 관련된 여러 질병을 제어하는데 있어 가치 있고 특정 분야에 중요할 것으로 판단된다
