AB  - Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, it has been obvious that virus infection poses
a serious threat to human health on a global scale. Certain plants, particularly those rich in polyphe-
nols, have been found to be effective antiviral agents. The effectiveness of Alchemilla viridiflora Rothm.
(Rosaceae) methanol extract to prevent contact between virus spike (S)-glycoprotein and angiotensin-
converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and neuropilin-1 (NRP1) receptors was investigated. In vitro results
revealed that the tested samples inhibited 50% of virus-receptor binding interactions in doses of
0.18 and 0.22 mg/mL for NRP1 and ACE2, respectively. Molecular docking studies revealed that the
compounds from A. viridiflora ellagitannins class had a higher affinity for binding with S-glycoprotein
whilst flavonoid compounds more significantly interacted with the NRP1 receptor. Quercetin
3-(6”-ferulylglucoside) and pentagalloylglucose were two compounds with the highest exhibited
interfering potential for selected target receptors, with binding energies of −8.035 (S-glycoprotein)
and −7.685 kcal/mol (NRP1), respectively. Furthermore, computational studies on other SARS-CoV-2
strains resulting from mutations in the original wild strain (V483A, N501Y-K417N-E484K, N501Y,
N439K, L452R-T478K, K417N, G476S, F456L, E484K) revealed that virus internalization activity was
maintained, but with different single compound contributions.

AB  - Alchemilla viridiflora Rothm., Rosaceae is a herbaceous plant widespread in central Greece, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Serbia with Kosovo. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis leads to the identification of 20 compounds in methanol extract, mainly ellagitannins and flavonoid glycosides. Given that various plant extracts have traditionally been used to treat hypertension and that some of the analyzed methanol extract constituents have beneficial cardiovascular effects, we hypothesized that some of these effects are achieved by inhibiting angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE). The dose- dependent ACE inhibitory activities of A. viridiflora and miquelianin were observed with an IC 50 of 2.51 ± 0.00 μg/mL of A. viridiflora extract compared to the IC 50 of 5.4139 ± 0.00 μM for miquelianin. The contribution of the single compounds to the tested activity was further analyzed through the in silico experimental approach. Computational docking results showed that tiliroside, ellagic acid pentose and galloyl-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-glucose exhibited even better binding affinity for the ACE active site than miquelianin, for which ACE activity was confirmed by an in vitro assay.

AB  - Geranium robertianum L. (Geraniaceae) has been traditionally used to treat a
range of ailments, including high blood pressure Recent in vitro studies have
shown that some traditional usages, such as antimicrobials, were scientifically
confirmed. Although the phytoconstituents of this plant species have been
extensively studied, some plant parts used in traditional medicine, such as
flowers, have not yet been chemically characterized. Given that the inhibition
of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is one of the most significant
mechanisms for decreasing blood pressure, we undertook this investigation to
find scientific support for G. robertianum anti-hypertensive traditional use.
Acetone was used to extract plant material since prior research revealed that it
had the highest total phenol and total flavonoid levels, which are considered to
be the primary sources of bioactive chemicals. The chemical composition of
G. robertianum collected in R. Srpska was determined using the LC MS
method, and the ACE inhibitory activity of acetone extract was measured
through the enzymatically cleaved 3-hydroxybutyric acid from 3-
hydryoxybutyryl-gly-gly-gly. Geraniin, a hydrolysable tannin with a Mr of
952.6, was the most abundant single chemical found in the extract. Derivatives
of galic and ellagic acids, as well as flavonoids like kaempferol and quercetine,
a were also present in significant amounts. G. robertianum acetonic floral
extract has been shown to be an effective natural ACE inhibitor with an IC50
of 22.14 μg/mL. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the
chemical composition of G. robertianum floral acetonic extract and its ACE
inhibitory activity.

AB  - Phytochemical and pharmacological in-vestigations of essential oils isolated from plant species of the genus Seseli have been intensified recently. These plant species have long-term use in nutrition and traditional medicine in the treatment of various disorders. Volatile secondary metabolites of Seseli gracile Waldst. & Kit (Apiaceae) have not been pharma-cologically examined so far. The aim of the conducted research was to assess the antiradical, antimicrobial and spasmolytic ac-tivities of S. gracile essential oil isolated from the aerial parts of the plant. Methods. The antiradical activity was determined us-ing the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scaveng-ing test, antimicrobial activity using broth microdilution meth-od with standard strains of Gram (+), Gram (-) bacteria and yeast, while spasmolytic activity was evaluated on isolated rat il-eum, pre-contracted with a high concentration of potassium. Results. The results showed moderate antiradical (SC50 = 78.60 μg/mL) and good spasmolytic activity (IC50 = 271.4 nL/mL) of S. gracile essential oil. In the range of tested concen-trations, minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was deter-mined only for the strain of Escherichia coli (500 μg/mL). Con-clusion. Results obtained in this study justify the need for fur-ther studies to elucidate exact molecular mechanism underlay this spasmolytic effect of S. gracile herb essential oil.

AB  - У оквиру ове докторске дисертације извршена је хемијска и фармаколошка карактеризација етарских уља изолованих из две врсте рода Seseli: Seseli pallasii и Seseli gracile.У испитивању су коришћени биљни материјали S. pallasii (корен, ризом, херба и плод) и S. gracile (корен, херба, цваст и плод) прикупљени током шестогодишњег периода са природног станишта као и гајени (само S. gracile). Етарска уља су изолована дестилацијом воденом паром, након чега су хемијски анализирана методом гасне хроматографије уз масени (GC-MS) и пламено-јонизујући детектор (GC-FID). Резултати хемијске анализе су показали да у узорцима надземних органа обе испитиване врсте доминирају монотрепенска једињења, са најзаступљенијим компонентама α-пиненом (S. pallasii) и терпиноленом (S. gracile). У подземним органима обе врсте доминирају не-терпенска једињења: n-нонан и n-ундекан (S. pallasii), односно фалкаринол (S. gracile).

AB  - Chemical and pharmacological characterisation of essential oils isolated from two Seseli species: Seseli gracile and Seseli pallasii were explored in this doctoral dissertation.Samples of S. pallasii (root, rhizome, herb and fruit) and S. gracile (root, herb, inflorescence and fruit) collected from a natural habitat over a six-year period and cultivated plants (just for S. gracile) were used in this research. Essential oils were isolated from the plant material by hydro-distillation method, and were thereafter chemically analysed by gas chromatography method with mass (GC-MS) and flame-ionizing detector (GC-FID). The results of the chemical analysis suggest that essential oils isolated from aerial parts of both investigated species are dominated by monoterpenes with α-pinene (S. pallasii) and terpinolene (S. gracile) as the most abundant compounds. In essential oils from underground plant organs, non-terpenic compounds are predominantly present in both species: n-nonane and n-undecane (S. pallasii) and falcarinol (S. gracile). Chemical composition variations of essential oils isolated from different plant parts were statistically analyzed using multivariate statistical methods (PCA and HCA). Within the pharmacological characterization, in vitro studies of antiradical (DPPH test), antimicrobial (microdilution test), spasmolytic (isolated rat ileum method), vasorelaxant (isolated mesenteric artery method) and ACE inhibitor (colorimetric test) activities were conducted. In vitro test of ACE inhibitor activity was preceded by in silico test, where the individual compounds potential for ACE inhibition was analyzed.Tested essential oils exhibited good spasmolytic and vasorelaxant activity (S. pallasii), moderate antimicrobial (S. pallasii) and anti-DPPH (S. gracile) activity and low ACE inhibition potential.

AB  - Terpeni predstavljaju veoma važnu grupu hemijskih jedinjenja kako zbog

dodavane rastuće koncentracije terpinolena, pripremljenog od standarda
razblaživanjem u 5 % karboksi‐metil celuloze (0,2 % ‐ 33,3 %, kumulativno). Svaka
sledeća koncentracija je dodavana tek nakon što se završi efekat prethodno

seriji eksperimenata je na isti način dodavan rastvarač (6 dodavanja kumulativno, sa
vremenskim razmakom od 15 minuta).
Utvrđeno je da terpinolen u kocentraciji od 11,1% dovodi do statistički značajne
vazorelaksacije u odnosu na rastvarač kao kontrolu (F=2,584, p<0,05; Two‐way

AB  - Terpenes represent a very important group of chemical compounds because of
their industrial use, as well as medical use which is possible due to their significant
biological effects. They are one of the largest groups of secondary plant metabolites.
The name of this class of compounds comes from turpentine (oil of turpentine), a liquid
product of pine oleoresin distillation process.
Terpinolene (p‐menth‐2,4 (8)‐diene) is a colorless or pale yellow colored liquid
with aromatic odor. This monocyclic, monoterpenic alkene is widely represented in
plant tissues of various pines, pashkans, cannabis, tea tree, turmeric and parsley leaves,
and it is often a component of essential oils obtained from Citrus, Mentha, Juniperus and
Myristica species. It is one of the main components of the essential oil of aerial parts of
the endemic species Seseli gracile Waldst. & Kit. (6.1‐57.5%). Terpinolen possesses
confirmed antiradical, antihyperalgesic and antiedematous activity. Since some
structurally similar monoterpenic compounds have previously shown vasorelaxant
activity, the aim of this study was to investigate the vasorelaxant potential of
terpinolene.
In the present study, the effects of standard terpinolene (43905 Sigma‐Aldrich)
on the isolated renal artery of Wistar rats were investigated. Three to five mm long
arterial ring tissue segments with preserved endothelium were used. The arterial
segments were placed in water bath in the Krebs‐Ringer solution, at 37° C and
continuously aerated by 95% O2 and 5% CO2. Contractions of the blood vessels were
induced with 10‐6 M of phenylephrine. The endothelium integrity was confirmed
pharmacologically, by using the acetylcholine (10‐6M). After accomplishing tonic phase
of the contraction, increasing concentration of terpinolene (0.2 % ‐ 33.3 %,
cumulatively) in 5 % carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) solution were added to the organ
bath. Each subsequent concentration was added only after the end of effect of the
previously applied concentration, i.e. approximately 15 minutes from the previous one.
In the control series of experiments, a solvent was added in the same manner.
It was found that terpinolene at the concentration of 11.1% exibits statistically
significant vasorelaxation in comparison to the solvent control (F = 2.584, p <0.05;
Two‐way ANOVA). Our results justify a continuation for the further studies of
terpinolene’s potential in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

AB  - Tanini, polifenolni biljni metaboliti, značajno smanjuju postprandijalnu
hiperglikemiju inhibicijom α‐glukozidaze, i stoga mogu biti efikasna strategija u
kontroli dijabetesa tipa 2. Takođe, dokazano je i da nespecifično inhibiraju aktivnost
angiotenzin‐konvertujućeg enzima (ACE). Kako su tanini identifikovani samo u vrsti
Alchemilla vulgaris L., cilj ovog istraživanja je da se odredi sadržaj tanina u do sada
neistraženoj vrsti A. viridiflora Rothm. (Rosaceae), kao i inhibitorni uticaj na aktivnost
ACE i α‐glukozidaze.
Ukupni sadržaj tanina u metanolnom ekstraktu A. viridiflora određen je prema
propisu Ph. Eur. 9.0. Suvi metanolni ekstrakt, enzimski rastvor (400 mU/ml α‐
glukozidaze u 0,1 M fosfatnom puferu) i supstrat, p‐nitrofenil α‐D‐glukopiranozid
korišćeni su za kolorimetrijski test inhibitorne aktivnosti α‐glukozidaze. Kao pozitivna
kontrola korišćena je akarboza. ACE inhibitorna aktivnost metanolnog ekstrakta
ispitana je korišćenjem komercijalnog testa ACE Kit‐ WST (Dojindo Inc., Japan) prema
uputstvu proizvođača. Procenat inhibicije enzima je izračunata IC50 vrednost, tj.
procenjena koncentracija ekstrakta koja je izazvala 50% inhibicije aktivnosti enzima,
koristeći linearnu regresionu analizu.
IC50 vrednost metanolnog ekstrakta A. viridiflora, očitana sa dozno‐zavisne krive
iznosi 2,6±0,5 μg/ml, i ekstrakt pokazuje bolju anti‐α‐glukozidaznu aktivnost od
standarda akarboze (IC50=74,2±3,3 μg/ml). Takođe, ispitivani ekstrakt pokazuje doznozavisnu
inhibiciju ACE pri IC50 2 μg/ml. Dobijeni rezultati su u korelaciji sa visokim
sadržajem tanina u metanolnom ekstraktu A. viridiflora (3,74 %).
Pokazane inhibicije angiotenzin‐konvertujućeg enzima i α‐glukozidaze čine
metanolni ekstrakt vrste A. viridiflora pogodnim za dalje istraživanje u cilju
pronalaženja novih prirodnih proizvoda značajnih za terapiju kardiovaskularnih bolesti
i dijabetesa.
AB  - Tannins, polyphenolic plant metabolites, significantly reduce postprandial
hyperglycemia by inhibiting α‐glucosidase, and therefore can be an effective strategy
for controlling type 2 diabetes. It has also been proven that they are non‐specific
inhibitors of the activity of angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE). As tannins were
identified only in the species Alchemilla vulgaris L., the aim of this study is to determine
the content of tannins in the unexplored A. viridiflora Rothm. (Rosaceae), as well as the
inhibitory effect on the activity of angiotensin‐converting enzyme and α‐glucosidase.
The content of tannins in methanol extract of A. viridiflora was determined
according to the Ph. Eur. 9.0. Dry methanol extract, enzyme solution (400 mU/ml of α‐
glucosidase in 0.1 M phosphate buffer) and substrate, p‐nitrophenyl α‐Dglucopyranoside
were used for colorimetric α‐glucosidase inhibitory activity test.
Acarbose was used as a positive control. The ACE inhibitory activity of the methanol
extract was tested using the commercial ACE Kit‐WST (Dojindo Inc., Japan) according to
the manufacturer's instructions. The percentage of enzyme inhibition is the calculated
IC50 value, i.e. estimated concentration of the extract that caused 50% inhibition of
enzyme activity using linear regression analysis.
The IC50 of A. viridiflora methanol extract, read from the dose‐dependent curve,
was 2.6±0.5 μg/mL, and this extract demonstrated better anti‐α‐glucosidase activity
than standard acarbose (IC50=74.2±3.3 μg/mL). In addition, the examined extract
shows a dose‐dependent inhibition of ACE with IC50 2 μg/mL. Obtained results were in
correlation with high level of tannins in methanol extract of A. viridiflora (3.74%).
The proven inhibitions of ACE and α-glucosidase make the methanol extract
of A. viridiflora suitable for further scientific research in order to find a new natural
product for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes.

ispitana je korišćenjem komercijalnog testa ACE Kit‐ WST (Dojindo Inc., Japan) prema
uputstvu proizvođača. Procenat inhibicije enzima je izračunata IC50 vrednost, tj.
procenjena koncentracija ekstrakta koja je izazvala 50% inhibicije aktivnosti enzima,
koristeći linearnu regresionu analizu.
IC50 vrednost metanolnog ekstrakta A. viridiflora, očitana sa dozno‐zavisne krive
iznosi 2,6±0,5 μg/ml, i ekstrakt pokazuje bolju anti‐α‐glukozidaznu aktivnost od
standarda akarboze (IC50=74,2±3,3 μg/ml). Takođe, ispitivani ekstrakt pokazuje doznozavisnu
inhibiciju ACE pri IC50 2 μg/ml. Dobijeni rezultati su u korelaciji sa visokim
sadržajem tanina u metanolnom ekstraktu A. viridiflora (3,74 %).
Pokazane inhibicije angiotenzin‐konvertujućeg enzima i α‐glukozidaze čine
metanolni ekstrakt vrste A. viridiflora pogodnim za dalje istraživanje u cilju
pronalaženja novih prirodnih proizvoda značajnih za terapiju kardiovaskularnih bolesti
i dijabetesa., Tannins, polyphenolic plant metabolites, significantly reduce postprandial
hyperglycemia by inhibiting α‐glucosidase, and therefore can be an effective strategy
for controlling type 2 diabetes. It has also been proven that they are non‐specific
inhibitors of the activity of angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE). As tannins were
identified only in the species Alchemilla vulgaris L., the aim of this study is to determine
the content of tannins in the unexplored A. viridiflora Rothm. (Rosaceae), as well as the
inhibitory effect on the activity of angiotensin‐converting enzyme and α‐glucosidase.
The content of tannins in methanol extract of A. viridiflora was determined
according to the Ph. Eur. 9.0. Dry methanol extract, enzyme solution (400 mU/ml of α‐
glucosidase in 0.1 M phosphate buffer) and substrate, p‐nitrophenyl α‐Dglucopyranoside
were used for colorimetric α‐glucosidase inhibitory activity test.
Acarbose was used as a positive control. The ACE inhibitory activity of the methanol
extract was tested using the commercial ACE Kit‐WST (Dojindo Inc., Japan) according to
the manufacturer's instructions. The percentage of enzyme inhibition is the calculated
IC50 value, i.e. estimated concentration of the extract that caused 50% inhibition of
enzyme activity using linear regression analysis.
The IC50 of A. viridiflora methanol extract, read from the dose‐dependent curve,
was 2.6±0.5 μg/mL, and this extract demonstrated better anti‐α‐glucosidase activity
than standard acarbose (IC50=74.2±3.3 μg/mL). In addition, the examined extract
shows a dose‐dependent inhibition of ACE with IC50 2 μg/mL. Obtained results were in
correlation with high level of tannins in methanol extract of A. viridiflora (3.74%).
The proven inhibitions of ACE and α-glucosidase make the methanol extract
of A. viridiflora suitable for further scientific research in order to find a new natural
product for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes.",

AB  - The present paper describes environmental and seasonal-related chemical composition variations, vasorelaxant and angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) activities of essential oil from aerial parts of Seseli pallasii BESSER. The composition was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Monoterpenes were found to be the most abundant chemical class with alpha-pinene (42.7 - 48.2%) as the most prevalent component. Seseli pallasi essential oil relaxed isolated endothelium-intact mesenteric arteries rings precontracted with phenylephrine with IC50 = 3.10 nl/ml (IC50 = 2.70 mu g/ml). Also, S. pallasii essential oil was found to exhibit a dose-dependent ACE inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 0.33 mg/ml. In silico evaluation of ACE inhibitory activity of the individual components showed that spathulenol exhibited the best binding affinity with ACE, and the lowest binding energy of -7.5 kcal/mol. The results suggested that combination of vasorelaxing and ACE inhibitory effects of the analyzed S. pallasii essential oil might have the potential therapeutic significance in hypertension.

AB  - The chemical composition of the essential oils of Seseli gracile Waldst. & Kit. from natural habitat (Derdap Gorge, Serbia) and from cultivated plants (Belgrade, Serbia) were characterized. The essential oils of the root, aerial parts, inflorescence and fruit were analyzed by GC/MS and GC/FID. Monoterpene hydrocarbons were the main compounds in the essential oil of aerial parts (45.2-93.0 %), inflorescences (84.1 and 90.0 %) and fruit (85.0 %). Polyacetylenes (38.8 and 87.6 %) were dominant in the essential oil of root. The cluster analysis revealed that there were significant differences in the chemical composition of the S. gracile oils at different phenological stages. On the other hand, essential oils from the aerial parts from natural and cultivated plants showed quite uniform qualitative composition. The aerial parts essential oil from natural habitat contained higher content of para-cymene (mean values 17.3 vs. 6.5 %) and lower amounts of terpinolene (mean values 23.1 vs. 49.9 %). Also polyacetylene falcarinol was present only in the aerial parts samples from natural habitat. The essential oil of inflorescences from natural habitat contained higher concentration of terpinolene, quite similar amount of para-cymene and lower content of a-pinene.
