Abstract
Dicranostigma leptopodum (Maxim) Fedde (DLF) is a renowned medicinal plant in China, known to be rich in alkaloids. However, the unavailability of a reference genome has impeded investigation into its plant metabolism and genetic breeding potential. Here we present a high-quality chromosomal-level genome assembly for DLF, derived using a combination of Nanopore long-read sequencing, Illumina short-read sequencing and Hi-C technologies. Our assembly genome spans a size of 621.81 Mb with an impressive contig N50 of 93.04 Mb. We show that the species-specific whole-genome duplication (WGD) of DLF and Papaver somniferum corresponded to two rounds of WGDs of Papaver setigerum. Furthermore, we integrated comprehensive homology searching, gene family analyses and construction of a gene-to-metabolite network. These efforts led to the discovery of co-expressed transcription factors, including NAC and bZIP, alongside sanguinarine (SAN) pathway genes CYP719 (CFS and SPS). Notably, we identified P6H as a promising gene for enhancing SAN production. By providing the first reference genome for Dicranostigma, our study confirms the genomic underpinning of SAN biosynthesis and establishes a foundation for advancing functional genomic research on Papaveraceae species. Our findings underscore the pivotal role of high-quality genome assemblies in elucidating genetic variations underlying the evolutionary origin of secondary metabolites.

Front Chem 2023; 11:1223865. [PMID: 37583566 PMCID: PMC10423935 DOI: 10.3389/fchem.2023.1223865] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex is a necessary part of healthcare for its significant clinical efficacy. Raw and processed Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex is both documented in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015). After processing, the therapeutic effects are believed to differ according to traditional Chinese medicine theories. However, the chemical mechanism responsible for this processing, according to traditional Chinese medicine theories, is still not clear. Methods: In this study, the therapeutic effects of various ions were examined based on traditional Chinese medicine theories by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap MS) coupled with multivariate statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), to comprehensively compare the differences between raw and processed Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex for the first time. Results: A total of 48 compounds were screened, out and 10 of them simultaneously transformed with significant variation in processed products compared with raw materials. It was illustrated that the contents of berberine, palmatine, jatrorrhizine, magnoflorine, menisperine, phellodendrine, tetrahydrojatrorrhizine, and tetrahydropalmatine decreased, while the compounds of berberrubine and fernloylquinic acid methyl ester newly appeared in processed herbs. This is likely to be related to the conversion of ingredients during processing. Discussion: Altogether, the fact that quality markers have been successfully identified to differentiate processed Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex from raw materials suggests that this approach could be used for the investigation of chemical transformation mechanisms involved in the processing of herbal medicine.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is a widespread infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The increasing incidence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) strains has created a need for new antiTB agents with new chemical scaffolds to combat the disease. Thus, the key question is: how to search for new antiTB and where to look for them? One of the possibilities is to search among natural products (NPs). In order to search for new antiTB drugs, the detailed phytochemical study of the whole Dicranostigma franchetianum plant was performed isolating wide spectrum of isoquinoline alkaloids (IAs). The chemical structures of the isolated alkaloids were determined by a combination of MS, HRMS, 1D, and 2D NMR techniques, and by comparison with literature data. Alkaloids were screened against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra and four other mycobacterial strains (M. aurum, M. avium, M. kansasii, and M. smegmatis). Alkaloids 3 and 5 showed moderate antimycobacterial activity against all tested strains (MICs 15.625–31.25 µg/mL). Furthermore, ten semisynthetic berberine (16a–16k) derivatives were developed and tested for antimycobacterial activity. In general, the derivatization of berberine was connected with a significant increase in antimycobacterial activity against all tested strains (MICs 0.39–7.81 μg/mL). Two derivatives (16e, 16k) were identified as compounds with micromolar MICs against M. tuberculosis H37Ra (MIC 2.96 and 2.78 µM). All compounds were also evaluated for their in vitro hepatotoxicity on a hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (HepG2), exerting lower cytotoxicity profile than their MIC values, thereby potentially reaching an effective concentration without revealing toxic side effects.

Abstract
The characterization of alkaloids is challenging because of the diversity of structures and the complicated fragmentation of collision induced structural dissociation in mass spectrometry. In this study, we analyzed the alkaloids in Sinomenium acutum (Thunb.) Rehderet Wil by high resolution mass spectrometry. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Phenomenex Kinetex C18 (2.1 mm × 100 mm, 2.6 μm) column with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water (0.1% formic acid) under gradient elution. A total of 52 alkaloids were well separated and 45 of them were structurally characterized, including morphinans, aporphines, benzylisoquinolines, and protoberberines. Specially, mass spectrometric study of the morphinan alkaloids were explicitly investigated. Electrostatic potential plot from simulation was calculated for determination of protonation sites. Further fragmentation analysis suggested that the C₃H₇N, CH₄O, and H₂O elimination was displayed in MS² spectrum. These fragmentation pathways are universal for morphinan alkaloids having methoxy substituted cyclohexenone or cyclohexadienone moieties. Additionally, for nitrogen oxides, an ion-neutral complex intermediate is involved in the fragmentation process, generating additional oxygenated ions. All these results provided the universal rules of fragmentation used for detection of alkaloids, and will be expected to be highly useful for comprehensive study of multi-components in the herbal medicine analysis.

Abstract
Isocorydine (ICD), an aporphine alkaloid, is widely distributed in nature. Its ability to target side population (SP) cells found in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) makes it and its derivative 8-amino-isocorydine (NICD) promising chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of HCC. To improve the anticancer activity of isocorydine derivatives, twenty derivatives of NICD were designed and synthesized through chemical structure modifications of the aromatic amino group at C-8. The anti-proliferative activities of all synthesized compounds against human hepatocellular (HepG2), cervical (HeLa), and gastric (MGC-803) cancer cell lines were evaluated using an MTT assay. The results showed that all the synthetic compounds had some tumor cell growth inhibitory activity. The compound COM33 (24) was the most active with IC50 values under 10 μM (IC50 for HepG2 = 7.51 µM; IC50 for HeLa = 6.32 μM). FICD (12) and COM33 (24) were selected for further investigation of their in vitro and in vivo activities due to their relatively good antiproliferative properties. These two compounds significantly downregulated the expression of four key proteins (C-Myc, β-Catenin, CylinD1, and Ki67) in HepG2 cells. The tumor inhibition rate of COM33 (24) in vivo was 73.8% after a dose 100 mg/kg via intraperitoneal injection and the combined inhibition rate of COM33 (24) (50 mg/kg) with sorafenib (50 mg/kg) was 66.5%. The results indicated that these isocorydine derivatives could potentially be used as targeted chemotherapy agents or could be further developed in combination with conventional chemotherapy drugs to target cancer stem cells (CSCs) and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), the main therapeutic targets in HCC.

Abstract
Twenty-five methanol extracts obtained from various representatives of Papaveraceae and Berberidaceae botanical families (genera: Papaver, Argemone, Eschscholzia, Chelidonium, Glaucium, and Berberis) were screened for their alkaloid content in an optimized method suitable for the LC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS analysis. Twelve pharmacologically important isoquinoline alkaloids from four groups, aporphines, benzylisoquinolines, protoberberines, and benzophenanthridines, present in these traditionally used plant species were quantitatively determined in each studied sample, providing their alkaloid profile. A Zorbax Stable Bond RP-18 column and a mobile phase composed of 0.1% formic acid and 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile (v/v) were used at the flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. A profound study on the optimization of MS response to four groups of isoquinoline alkaloids (validation of capillary voltage, gas flows, nebulizer pressure, skimmer, and fragmentor voltages), repeatability of results, and stability and linearity of measurements were described, showing, among others, 3000 V of capillary voltage, 350°C of gas temperature, 12 L/min of gas flows, nebulizer pressure of 35 psig, 65 V for skimmer voltage, and 30 V for collision energy as the most advantageous operation parameters.

Abstract
In this work, we developed a novel molecularly imprinted solid-phase microextraction with capillary electrophoresis method for the selective extraction and determination of protoberberines in complicated samples. The imprinted monolith was prepared in a micropipette tip-based device by using acrylamide as the functional monomer, ethyleneglyoldimethacrylate as the cross-linker and dimethylsulfoxide as the porogen, and exhibited an imprinting factor of 2.41 to berberine, 2.36 to palmatine and 2.38 to jatrorrhizine. Good capillary electrophoresis separation was achieved by using 20 mM phosphate buffer at pH 7 as running buffer with the addition of organic modifier of 10% methanol. Parameters such as sample pH value, sample flow rate and sample volume were investigated for imprinted monolith-based solid-phase microextraction. An imprinted solid-phase microextraction with capillary electrophoresis method was developed, the method showed a wide linear range (0.3-50 μg/mL), good linearity (R2 ≥ 0.9947) and good reproducibility (relative standard deviations ≤ 0.73%), the limit of detection was as low as 0.1 μg/mL, which was lower than some reported methods based on capillary electrophoresis for protoberberines. The method has been applied for determination of three common protoberberines in Cortex Phellodendri Chinensis, by using a molecularly imprinted monolith as the selective sorbent, most of the matrices in the Cortex Phellodendri Chinensis sample were removed and three protoberberines were selectively enriched and well determined.

Abstract
In chromatographic processes, molecular collisions between the mobile phase and the solute result in the transfer of kinetic energy. Based on these interactions, the relationship between the gauge pressure of the carrier gas at the column inlet and the partition frequency of the solute is derived; consequently, the relationship between the column temperature and partition frequency can be obtained. These relationships have been experimentally validated. The change in the peak shape described herein has been successfully explained using this relationship: the partition frequency was calculated from the theoretical plate number of a tailing peak. We propose a new mechanism for peak tailing using plate theory, which states that as the number of plates increases, the symmetry of the peak increases.
