All that glitters is not gold: Panning cytotoxic natural products and derivatives with a fused tricyclic backbone by the estimation of their leadlikeness for cancer treatment.

[PMID: 30684866 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2019.01.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2018] [Revised: 01/12/2019] [Accepted: 01/13/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Tricyclic compounds call the attention because of their pharmacological properties, and are considered a preferred platform for the development of drugs. Especially, in cancer treatment, these planar compounds are known for their ability to stack with DNA base pairs, acting as intercalators. In this sense, natural products (NPs) are a prodigal source of polycyclic compounds, comprising classes, such as carbolines, anthraquinones and xanthones. However, most of these compounds lack suitable physico-chemical properties, compatible to oral bioaviability. In this perspective, this paper aims to overview the role of tricyclic cores in the development of cytotoxic compounds, focusing on the leadlikeness estimation of the most prominent NP classes and their synthetic derivatives.

Abstract
Two new dihydroxy-xanthone metabolites, agnestins A and B, were isolated from Paecilomyces variotii along with a number of related benzophenones and xanthones including monodictyphenone. The structures were elucidated by NMR analyses and X-ray crystallography. The agnestin (agn) biosynthetic gene cluster was identified and targeted gene disruptions of the PKS, Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase, and other oxido-reductase genes revealed new details of fungal xanthone biosynthesis. In particular, identification of a reductase responsible for in vivo anthraquinone to anthrol conversion confirms a previously postulated essential step in aromatic deoxygenation of anthraquinones, e.g. emodin to chrysophanol.

Abstract
Xanthones represent a structurally diverse group of compounds with a broad range of biological and pharmacological activities, depending on the nature and position of various substituents in the dibenzo-γ-pyrone scaffold. Among the large number of natural and synthetic xanthone derivatives, carboxyxanthones are very interesting bioactive compounds as well as important chemical substrates for molecular modifications to obtain new derivatives. A remarkable example is 5,6-dimethylxanthone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA), a simple carboxyxanthone derivative, originally developed as an anti-tumor agent and the first of its class to enter phase III clinical trials. From DMXAA new bioactive analogues and derivatives were also described. In this review, a literature survey covering the report on carboxyxanthone derivatives is presented, emphasizing their biological activities as well as their application as suitable building blocks to obtain new bioactive derivatives. The data assembled in this review intends to highlight the therapeutic potential of carboxyxanthone derivatives and guide the design for new bioactive xanthone derivatives.

Abstract
Work previously published by our group described novel methodology for the synthesis of xanthones and related products from phenolic benzophenones in a reaction mediated by ceric ammonium sulfate (CAS). In this paper we further explore this novel reaction by subjecting an additional set of phenolic benzophenones to CAS to afford a range of compounds, including xanthones, 9 H-xanthen-2,9(4a H)-diones, 3 H-spiro[benzofuran-2,1'-cyclohexa[2,5]diene]-3,4'-diones, and biaryl compounds. A comparison of these reactions with the more commonly used oxidant ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) was also conducted. Based on these results, greater insight into the reaction mechanism has been gained. In addition, the conversion of the synthesized xanthen-2,9(4a H)-diones to xanthones by treatment with sodium dithionite is described.

Abstract
The present work addresses computational research focused on the energetic and structural properties of four isomers monohydroxyxanthone, using the G3(MP2)//B3LYP method, in order to evaluate the influence of the hydroxyl (-OH moiety) functional group on the xanthone molecule. The combination of these computational results with previous experimental data of these compounds enabled the determination of their enthalpies, entropies and Gibbs energies of formation, in the gaseous phase, and consequently to infer about the relative thermodynamic stability of the four isomers. Other issues were also addressed for the hydroxyxanthone isomers, namely the conformational and the tautomeric equilibrium analysis of the optimized molecular structures, the frontier orbitals, and the electrostatic potential energy maps. Complementarily, an energetic study of the intramolecular O - H ⋯ O hydrogen bond for 1-hydroxanthone was also performed.

Abstract
Six new xanthone-derived polyketides, named phomoxanthones F-K (1-6), along with three known ones, were isolated from Phomopsis sp. xy21, which was isolated as an endophytic fungus from the Thai mangrove Xylocarpus granatum. Phomoxanthone F (1) represents the first xanthone-derived polyketide containing a 10a-decarboxylated benzopyranone nucleus that was substituted by a 4-methyldihydrofuran-2(3H)-one moiety at C10a. Phomoxanthones G (2) and H (3) are highly oxidized xanthone-derived polyketides containing a novel 5-methyl-6-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane motif. This is the first report of a C6-O-C12 bridge in xanthone-derived polyketides. Additionally, a plausible biogenetic pathway for these xanthone-derived polyketides is proposed.

Abstract
Water-soluble chitosan oligosaccharides (COS) affect xanthone and volatile organic compound content, as well as antifungal activity against human pathogenic fungi of extracts obtained from Hypericum perforatum root cultures. Several studies have demonstrated the elicitor power of chitosan on xanthone biosynthesis in root cultures of H. perforatum. One of the major limitations to the use of chitosan, both for basic and applied research, is the need to use acidified water for solubilization. To overcome this problem, the elicitor effect of water-soluble COS on the biosynthesis of both xanthones and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) was evaluated in the present study. The analysis of xanthones and VOCs was performed by HPLC and GC-MS headspace analysis. The obtained results showed that COS are very effective in enhancing xanthone biosynthesis. With 400 mg L-1 COS, a xanthone content of about 30 mg g-1 DW was obtained. The antifungal activity of extracts obtained with 400 mg L-1 COS was the highest, with MIC50 of 32 µg mL-1 against Candida albicans and 32-64 µg mL-1 against dermatophytes, depending on the microorganism. Histochemical investigations suggested the accumulation of isoprenoids in the secretory ducts of H. perforatum roots. The presence of monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes was confirmed by the headspace analysis. Other volatile hydrocarbons have been identified. The biosynthesis of most VOCs showed significant changes in response to COS, suggesting their involvement in plant-fungus interactions.

Abstract
Due to the emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogenic microorganisms, the search for new antimicrobial compounds plays an important role in current medicinal chemistry research. Inspired by lichen antimicrobial xanthones, a series of novel chlorinated xanthones was prepared using five chlorination methods (Methods A⁻E) to obtain different patterns of substitution in the xanthone scaffold. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. Among them, 3-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1-methyl-9H-xanthen-9-one 15 showed promising antibacterial activity against E. faecalis (ATCC 29212 and 29213) and S. aureus ATCC 29213. 2,7-Dichloro-3,4,6-trimethoxy-1-methyl-9H-xanthen-9-one 18 revealed a potent fungistatic and fungicidal activity against dermatophytes clinical strains (T. rubrum, M. canis, and E. floccosum (MIC = 4⁻8 µg/mL)). Moreover, when evaluated for its synergistic effect for T. rubrum, compound 18 exhibited synergy with fluconazole (ΣFIC = 0.289). These results disclosed new hit xanthones for both antibacterial and antifungal activity.

Abstract
Marine-derived fungi are a rich source of structurally diverse metabolites. Fungi produce an array of compounds when grown under different cultivation conditions. In the present work, different media were used to cultivate the fungus Aspergillus sp. ZA-01, which was previously studied for the production of bioactive compounds, and three new prenylxanthone derivatives, aspergixanthones I–K (1–3), and four known analogues (4–7) were obtained. The absolute configuration of 1 was assigned by ECD experiment and the Mo2(AcO)4 ICD spectrum of its methanolysis derivative (1a). All the compounds (1–7) were evaluated for their anti-Vibrio activities. Aspergixanthone I (1) showed the strongest anti-Vibrio activity against Vibrio parahemolyticus (MIC = 1.56 μM), Vibrio anguillarum (MIC = 1.56 μM), and Vibrio alginolyticus (MIC = 3.12 μM).

Abstract
α-Glucosidase plays an important role in carbohydrate metabolism and is therefore an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of diabetes, obesity and other related complications. In the last two decades, considerable interest has been given to natural and synthetic xanthone derivatives in this field of research. Herein, a comprehensive review of the literature on xanthones as inhibitors of α-glucosidase activity, their mechanism of action, experimental procedures and structure-activity relationships have been reviewed for more than 280 analogs. With this overview we intend to motivate and challenge researchers (e.g. chemistry, biology, pharmaceutical and medicinal areas) for the design of novel xanthones as multipotent drugs and exploit the properties of this class of compounds in the management of diabetic complications.

Abstract
Determination of the absolute configrations for natural products is one of the most important and challenging tasks, especially when the molecules display high conformational flexibility. In this paper, eight new prenylxanthones, aspergixanthones A-H (1-8), and one known analogue (9), were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus sp. ZA-01. The absolute configurations of C-14 and C-15 in 1-8 were difficult to be assigned due to the high conformational flexibility of the chains. To solve this problem, the experimental ECD, ORD, and VCD spectra of 1 were combined for analysis with the corresponding theoretical predictions for its different diastereomers. This study suggested that a concerted application of more than one chiroptical methods could be used as a preferable approach for the stereochemical characterizations of flexible molecules. Compounds 1-9 were evaluated for their cytotoxic and antibacterial activities. Among them, 6 showed cytotoxicity against the A-549 cell line with the IC50 value of 1.1 μM, and 7 exhibited antibacterial activity against Micrococcus lysodeikticus with the MIC value of 0.78 μg/mL.

Abstract
A one pot borylation/Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of the 4-bromochromanone lactones 21 and 23, respectively, followed by cleavage of the methyl ether moieties gave the homodimeric chromanone lactones 10 and 11. Reaction of a 1:1 mixture of 21 and 23 under otherwise identical conditions gave a 1:1:2-mixture of the two homodimers 10 and 11 and the heterodimer 12. This is the first example of the preparation of a heterodimeric chromanone lactone. For the enantioselective synthesis of the starting material, phenol 17 was transformed into the chromane 18 using a Wacker-type cyclisation with 99 % ee and 80 % yield.

Abstract
This work reports on the enantioselective total synthesis of the two dimeric natural chromanone lactones phomopsis-H76 A (5) and blennolide H (6). Both syntheses could be achieved from chromane 11, which was obtained by an enantioselective Wacker-type cyclization with >99 % ee. The dimerization of the corresponding monomers was performed using a palladium-catalyzed Suzuki reaction. Moreover, within this work it was possible to revise the absolute configuration of phomopsis-H76 A and determine the relative as well as absolute configuration of blennolide H.

Abstract
The synthesis of kibdelone C, a polycyclic natural xanthone isolated from a soil actinomycete, was achieved through a convergent approach. A 6π-electrocyclization was applied to construct the highly substituted dihydrophenanthrenol fragment (B-C-D ring). InBr3-promoted lactonization was employed to build the isocoumarin ring, which served as a common precursor for the formation of isoquinolinone ring (A-B ring). A key DMAP-mediated oxa-Michael/aldol cascade reaction was developed to install the tetrahydroxanthone fragment (E-F ring). This approach provides a new solution to prepare its derivatives and structurally related natural products.

Abstract
Lichens, which are defined by a core symbiosis between a mycobiont (fungal partner) and a photobiont (photoautotrophic partner), are in fact complex assemblages of microorganisms that constitute a largely untapped source of bioactive secondary metabolites. Historically, compounds isolated from lichens have predominantly been those produced by the dominant fungal partner, and these continue to be of great interest for their unique chemistry and biotechnological potential. In recent years it has become apparent that many photobionts and lichen-associated bacteria also produce a range of potentially valuable molecules. There is evidence to suggest that the unique nature of the symbiosis has played a substantial role in shaping many aspects of lichen chemistry, for example driving bacteria to produce metabolites that do not bring them direct benefit but are useful to the lichen as a whole. This is most evident in studies of cyanobacterial photobionts, which produce compounds that differ from free living cyanobacteria and are unique to symbiotic organisms. The roles that these and other lichen-derived molecules may play in communication and maintaining the symbiosis are poorly understood at present. Nonetheless, advances in genomics, mass spectrometry and other analytical technologies are continuing to illuminate the wealth of biological and chemical diversity present within the lichen holobiome. Implementation of novel biodiscovery strategies such as metagenomic screening, coupled with synthetic biology approaches to reconstitute, re-engineer and heterologously express lichen-derived biosynthetic gene clusters in a cultivable host, offer a promising means for tapping into this hitherto inaccessible wealth of natural products.

Abstract
A systematic study of enantioresolution of a library of xanthonic derivatives, prepared “in-house”, was successfully carried out with four commercially available macrocyclic glycopeptide-based columns, namely ChirobioticTM T, ChirobioticTM R, ChirobioticTM V and ChirobioticTM TAG. Evaluation was conducted in multimodal elution conditions: normal-phase, polar organic, polar ionic and reversed-phase. The effects of the mobile phase composition, the percentage of organic modifier, the pH of the mobile phase, the nature and concentration of different mobile phase additives on the chromatographic parameters are discussed. ChirobioticTM T and ChirobioticTM V, under normal-phase and reversed-phase modes, respectively, presented the best chromatographic parameters. Considering the importance of understanding the chiral recognition mechanisms associated with the chromatographic enantioresolution, and the scarce data available for macrocyclic glycopeptide-based columns, computational studies by molecular docking were also carried out.

Abstract
Boosted by the general aim of exploiting the biotechnological potential of the microbial component of biodiversity, research on the secondary metabolite production of endophytic fungi has remarkably increased in the past few decades. Novel compounds and bioactivities have resulted from this work, which has stimulated a more thorough consideration of various natural ecosystems as conducive contexts for the discovery of new drugs. Thriving at the frontier between land and sea, mangrove forests represent one of the most valuable areas in this respect. The present paper offers a review of the research on the characterization and biological activities of secondary metabolites from manglicolous strains of species belonging to the genus Talaromyces. Aspects concerning the opportunity for a more reliable identification of this biological material in the light of recent taxonomic revisions are also discussed.

Abstract
For the last several years, searching of new xanthone derivatives (XDs) with potential pharmacological activities has remained one of the main areas of interest of our group. The optimization of biological activity and drug-like properties of hits and leads is crucial at early stage of the drug discovery pipeline. Lipophilicity is one of the most important drug-like properties having a great impact in both pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics processes. In this work, we describe the lipophilicity of a small library of bioactive XDs, previously synthesized by our group, using different methods: computational, vortex-assisted liquid-liquid microextraction coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (VALLME-HPLC), reversed-phase high-performance thin layer chromatography (RP-HPTLC), reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), and biomembrane model by the partition between micelles and aqueous phase. The different results obtained by the used methods were compared and discussed. The methodologies and data gathered in this study will expand the investigation of lipophilicity of XDs, an important class of compounds in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
Xantholipin and several related polycyclic xanthone antibiotics feature a unique xanthone ring nucleus within a highly oxygenated, angular, fused hexacyclic system. In this study, we demonstrated that a flavin-dependent monooxygenase (FMO) XanO4 catalyzes the oxidative transformation of an anthraquinone to a xanthone system during the biosynthesis of xantholipin. In vitro isotopic labeling experiments showed that the reaction involves sequential insertion of two oxygen atoms, accompanied by an unexpected cryptic demethoxylation reaction. Moreover, characterizations of homologous FMOs of XanO4 suggested the generality of the XanO4-like-mediated reaction for the assembly of a xanthone ring in the biosynthesis of polycyclic xanthone antibiotics. These findings not only expand the repertoire of FMO activities but also reveal a novel mechanism for xanthone ring formation.

Abstract
We report the concise, biomimetic total synthesis of the dimeric, Diels-Alder natural product griffipavixanthone from a readily accessible prenylated xanthone monomer. The key step utilizes a novel intermolecular [4+2] cycloaddition-cyclization cascade between a vinyl p-quinone methide and an in situ generated isomeric diene promoted by either Lewis or Brønsted acids. Experimental and computational studies of the reaction pathway suggest that a stepwise, cationic Diels-Alder cycloaddition is operative.

Abstract
The frame rearrangement reaction of dinaphthyl ketones, possessing hydroxy groups at appropriate positions, into phenalenone derivatives under acidic conditions was discovered serendipitously. Although this rearrangement had limited scope, its mechanism was unusual, involving the division of naphthalene rings into one phenalenone ring and one benzene ring. The reaction mechanism was elucidated by direct determination of intermediate structures using 1H NMR measurements. The generated phenalenones are expected to be key intermediates toward natural products and functional materials.

Abstract
Four new α-pyrone derivatives phomones C-F (1-4) together with four known compounds (5-8) were isolated from the endophytic fungus Phoma sp. YN02-P-3. Compound 1 is the first example of 6-α,β-unsaturated ester-2-pyrone dimers via intermolecular symmetrical [2+2] cycloaddition. The chemical structures of these compounds were determined from spectroscopic data (1D/2D NMR, MS and IR). The acetylated product (9) of 1 along with compounds 1-8 were then tested for their cytotoxicity against HL-60, PC-3 and HCT-116 cell lines. Compounds 2, 3, 5 and 9 with acetyl groups showed significant inhibitory activities against the three cell lines with IC50 values in the range 0.52-9.85μM. while compounds 1, 4 and 6-8 that possess no acetyl group showed no inhibitory activity (IC50>50μM), indicating that the acetyl group at 10- or 12- are essential for their cytotoxic activities. The structure-activity relationships of these phomones were also reported.

Abstract
Six chiral derivatives of xanthones (CDXs) were covalently bonded to silica, yielding the corresponding xanthonic chiral stationary phases (XCSPs). The new XCSPs were packed into stainless-steel columns with 150 x 4.6 mm i.d. Moreover, the greening of the chromatographic analysis by reducing the internal diameter (150 x 2.1 mm i.d.) of the liquid chromatography (LC) columns was also investigated. The enantioselective capability of these phases was evaluated by LC using different chemical classes of chiral compounds, including several types of drugs. A library of CDXs was evaluated in order to explore the principle of reciprocity as well as the chiral self-recognition phenomenon. The separation of enantiomeric mixtures of CDXs was investigated under multimodal elution conditions. The XCSPs provided high specificity for the enantiomeric mixtures of CDXs evaluated mainly under normal-phase elution conditions. Furthermore, two XCSPs were prepared with both enantiomers of the same xanthonic selector in order to confirm the inversion order elution.
