Triterpenoids from Dysoxylum genus and their biological activities. Arch Pharm Res 2022; 45:63-89. [PMID: 35099681 DOI: 10.1007/s12272-022-01371-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2021] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the ethnobotanical, chemical, and biological activities of triterpenoid compounds isolated from the Dysoxylum genus of the Meliaceae family between 1974 and 2021. The species are mainly distributed in Africa, Asia, and Australia, and used as a traditional medicine to treat various diseases. Triterpenoid was first isolated in 1976 and as tetranortriterpenoid or limonoid, it was named dysobinin. Several studies were conducted for more than 40 years on the plants' stems, bark, and leaves, where approximately 279 triterpenoid compounds from several groups such as dammarane, nortriterpenoid, oleanane, lupane, tirucallane, cyclolanostane, or cycloartane, glabretal, and cycloapoeuphane-types were isolated with some synthetic products. In addition, the hypothetical route of triterpenes biosynthesis from this genus was identified, and tirucallane-type were reported to be 37.6% of the total compounds. The anti-malarial, anti-feedant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, vasodilative effect, anti-viral, cortisone reductase, and cytotoxic activities of the extract were also evaluated. The results showed the necessity of using the triterpenoid compounds from the Dysoxylum genus in traditional medicine and the discovery of new drugs.

Biswas T, Dwivedi UN. Plant triterpenoid saponins: biosynthesis, in vitro production, and pharmacological relevance. PROTOPLASMA 2019; 256:1463-1486.

Abstract
The saponins are a diverse class of natural products, with a broad scale distribution across different plant species. Chemically characterized as triterpenoid glycosides, they posses a 30C oxidosqualene precursor-based aglycone moiety (sapogenin), to which glycosyl residues are subsequently attached to yield the corresponding saponin. Based on the chemically distinct aglycone moieties, broadly, they are divided into triterpenoid saponins (dammaranes, ursanes, oleananes, lupanes, hopanes, etc.) and the sterol glycosides. This review aims to present in detail the biosynthesis patterns of the different aglycones from a common precursor and their glycosylation patterns to yield the functionally active glycoside. The review also presents recent advances in the pharmacological activities of these saponins, particularly as potent anti-neoplastic pharmacophores, antioxidants, or anti-viral/antibacterial agents. Since alternate production pedestals for these pharmacologically important triterpenes via cell and tissue cultures are an attractive option for their sustainable production, recent trends in the variety and scale of in vitro production of plant triterpenoids have also been discussed.

Abstract
Four new dammarane-type triterpenoids (1-4) and twelve known compounds (5-16) were isolated from the leaves of Viburnum sambucinum Reinw. ex Blume. Their structures were determined by spectral data analysis, including MS and 2D NMR. Cytotoxic activity evaluation in vitro against four cancer cell lines (KB, LU-1, HepG2 and MCF7) suggested that the octanor-dammarane derivatives were the main cytotoxic components of the leaves of V. sambucinum.

Abstract
Dammarane-type triterpenoids (DTT) widely distribute in various medicinal plants. They have generated a great amount of interest in the field of new drug research and development. Generally, DTT are the main bioactive ingredients abundant in Araliaceae plants, such as Panax ginseng, P. japonicas, P. notoginseng, and P. quinquefolium. Aside from Araliaceae, DTT also distribute in other families, including Betulaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Meliaceae, Rhamnaceae, and Scrophulariaceae. Until now, about 136 species belonging to 46 families have been reported to contain DTT. In this article, the genus classifications of plant sources of the botanicals that contain DTT are reviewed, with particular focus on the NMR spectral features and pharmacological activities based on literature reports, which may be benefit for the development of new drugs or food additives.

Structural elucidation of all the compounds was performed by spectral methods such as 1D and 2D NMR, IR, UV, and HRESIMS. The isolated compounds were tested in vitro for cytotoxic potential against seven tumor cell lines (Hep-2, SCL-1, CAL-27, UMSCC-1, Detroit-562, SCC-PKU, and TCA-83). As result, compounds 1 and 2 exhibited cytotoxic activities with IC50 values less than 10 μM.

Abstract
Five selective 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) competitive inhibitors, hupehenols A-E (1-5), were isolated from Viburnum hupehense. The structure elucidation indicated that compounds 1-5 are new 20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27-octanordammarane triterpenoids. Their structures were established on the basis of NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analysis. Hupehenols A-E (1-5) showed inhibition against human 11β-HSD1, with hupehenols B (2) and E (5) having IC50 values of 15.3 and 34.0 nM, respectively. Moreover, hupehenols C (3) and D (4) are highly selective inhibitors of human 11β-HSD1 when compared to murine 11β-HSD1.
