Isomers of the Tomato Glycoalkaloids α-Tomatine and Dehydrotomatine: Relationship to Health Benefits

Abstract: High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of three commercial tomatine samples and another isolated from green tomatoes revealed the presence of two small peaks in addition to those associated with the glycoalkaloids dehydrotomatine and α-tomatine. The present study investigated the possible structures of the compounds associated with the two small peaks using HPLC–mass spectrophotometric (MS) methods. Although the two peaks elute much earlier on chromatographic columns than the elution times of t… Show more

“…These observations indicate that inhibition of tumor growth is accompanied by a variety of biomarkers and signaling pathways associated with tumor formation and inhibition. That an immune checkpoint inhibitor potentiates the anti-tumor effect of a food product suggests it might also beneficially impact other food-related anti-carcinogens we studied, including the black rice bran component γ-oryzanol [8], mushroom polysaccharides [14] [28], the tomato glycoalkaloid tomatine [32] [33] [34], as well as potato and eggplant glycoalkaloids [35].…”

“…The most commonly used approach for the analysis of α-tomatine is liquid chromatography combined with an electron spray ionization mass spectrometer (LC/ESI-MS), a quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer (Q-TOF MS), and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS) [25,31,40,62,63]. The soft ionization of these techniques allows for the analysis of highly polar, high-molecular-weight, and thermally unstable compounds in their intact form [11].…”
