Abstract
This report describes the isolation and characterization of xanthones from Garcinia bancana Miq. and evaluates their antiplasmodial and anticancer activities. Macluraxanthone (1), isojacareubin (2), and gerontoxanthone C (3) were isolated from the stem bark of G. bancana Miq. for the first time. In silico molecular docking studies revealed the hydrogen bonding and steric interactions between xanthones (1-3) and PfLDH/VEGFR2. The in vitro antiplasmodial activity was assayed against the chloroquine-sensitive Plasmodium falciparum strain 3D7 by the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) method. The anticancer evaluation was evaluated against the A549, MCF-7, HeLa, and B-16 cancer cell lines. Compounds (1) (IC50 8.45-16.71 μM) and (3) (IC50 9.69-14.86 μM) showed more potent anticancer activity than compound (2) (IC50 25.46-31.31 μM), as well for their antiplasmodial activity (4.28 μM, 5.52 μM, 11.45 μM). Our findings indicated the potential of G. bancana Miq. as a natural resource of antiplasmodial and anticancer compounds.

Bio-guided isolation of alpha-glucosidase inhibitory compounds from Vietnamese Garcinia schomburgkiana fruits: in vitro and in silico studies. RSC Adv 2023; 13:35408-35421. [PMID: 38053690 PMCID: PMC10694853 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra06760b] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Garcinia schomburgkiana is an edible tree widely distributed in the southern region of Vietnam. Little is known about the alpha-glucosidase inhibition of the Vietnamese Garcinia schomburgkiana. The aim of the current study was to explore the anti-diabetic potential of G. schomburgkiana fruits. All the fractions of G. schomburgkiana were evaluated for alpha-glucosidase inhibition, followed by bioassay-guided isolation. A new compound, epi-guttiferone Q (1), together with ten known compounds, guttiferones I-K (2-3), hypersampsone I (4), sampsonione D (5), sampsonione H (6), β-mangostin (7), α-mangostin (8), 9-hydroxycalabaxanthone (9), and fuscaxanthone (10), were isolated and structurally elucidated. The structure of the new metabolite 1 was confirmed through 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, and MS analysis. To the best of our knowledge, the metabolites (except 3) have not been isolated from this plant previously. All isolated compounds were evaluated for their alpha-glucosidase inhibition. Compounds 1-6 showed potent activity with IC50 values ranging from 16.2 to 130.6 μM. Compound 2 was further selected for a kinetic study. The result indicated that it was a competitive type. Additionally, in silico docking was employed to predict the binding mechanism of 1-2 and 4-6 in the active site of alpha-glucosidase, suggesting their potential as promising anti-diabetic compounds. Molecular dynamic simulation was also applied to 1 to better understand its inhibitory mechanism.

Abstract
Natural products are one of the main sources of drug and agrochemicals discovery. Biphenyls skeleton are ubiquitous structures in many classes of natural products, which indicate extensive biological activities. So, in order to investigate the potential applications for natural biphenyl derivatives, a series of novel carboxamide derivatives with diverse substituent patterns were designed and synthesized based on active pharmacophore from natural biphenyl lignans, and their in vitro antifungal activities against several typical plant pathogens belonging to oomycetes, ascomycete, deuteromycetes, and basidiomycetes were fully investigated. The highly potential compounds were further tested in vivo assay against Botrytis cinerea Pers. of cucumber to demonstrate a practical application for controlling common plant diseases, which indicated four compounds could effectively control the resistant strains of carbendazim, rutamycin, and pyrazolidide. The potential modes of action for compound B12 against B. cinerea were also explored using molecular docking, microscopic technology, and label-free quantitative proteomics analysis. The results show that compound B12 may be a potential novel fungicidal agent used for gray mold resistance control, which can influence the protein synthesis of B. cinerea. These findings can provide a certain theoretical basis for the development of novel biphenyl derivatives as potential green antifungal agents.

Abstract
Ten undescribed polyprenylated benzoylphloroglucinol derivatives named garcowacinols A‒J (1-10) and four known analogues (11-14) were isolated from the twigs of Garcinia cowa. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic data analysis (1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS), and their absolute configurations were established based on NOESY and ECD data. All isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against five types of human cancer cells (KB, HeLa S3, MCF-7, Hep G2, and HT-29) as well as Vero cells by MTT colorimetric assay. Garcowacinol C was significantly active against all the five cancer cells with IC50 values in the range of 0.61-9.50 μM. Selective proliferative inhibitions were observed on garcowacinol F and 7-epiclusianone against KB cells, and guttiferone Q toward MCF-7 cells with IC50 values less than 10 μM.

Abstract
In our continuation of exploring antidiabetic agents from Garcinia species, we found that the methanolic extract of G. macrantha A.C.Sm. exhibited considerable α-glucosidase inhibition of 58.20 ± 0.37% in sucrose substrate and 39.86 ± 2.07% in maltose substrate at 100 μg/mL. Phytochemical investigation on the extract revealed the presence of a new biphenyl, macrabiphenyl A, which was successfully elucidated by means of spectroscopic methods (HRESIMS and 1D and 2D NMR). The α-glucosidase inhibitory evaluation indicated that the new compound was weakly active against the enzyme.

Abstract
Clusiaceae plants contain a wide range of biologically active metabolites that have gotten a lot of interest in recent decades. The chemical compositions of these plants have been demonstrated to have positive effects on a variety of ailments. The species has been studied for over 70 years, and many bioactive compounds with antioxidant, anti-proliferative, and anti-inflammatory properties have been identified, including xanthones, polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), benzophenones, and biphenyls. Prenylated side chains have been discovered in many of these bioactive substances. To date, there have been numerous studies on PPAPs and xanthones, while no comprehensive review article on biphenyls from Clusiaceae has been published. The unique chemical architectures and growing biological importance of biphenyl compounds have triggered a flurry of research and interest in their isolation, biological evaluation, and mechanistic studies. In particular, the FDA-approved drugs such as sonidegib, tazemetostat, daclatasvir, sacubitril and trifarotene are closely related to their biphenyl-containing moiety. In this review, we summarize the progress and development in the chemistry and biological activity of biphenyls in Clusiaceae, providing an in-depth discussion of their structural diversity and medicinal potential. We also present a preliminary discussion of the biological effects with or without prenyl groups on the biphenyls.

Promising SARS-CoV-2 main protease inhibitor ligand-binding modes evaluated using LB-PaCS-MD/FMO. Sci Rep 2022; 12:17984.

Abstract
Parallel cascade selection molecular dynamics-based ligand binding-path sampling (LB-PaCS-MD) was combined with fragment molecular orbital (FMO) calculations to reveal the ligand path from an aqueous solution to the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) active site and to customise a ligand-binding pocket suitable for delivering a potent inhibitor. Rubraxanthone exhibited mixed-inhibition antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 Mpro, relatively low cytotoxicity, and high cellular inhibition. However, the atomic inhibition mechanism remains ambiguous. LB-PaCS-MD/FMO is a hybrid ligand-binding evaluation method elucidating how rubraxanthone interacts with SARS-CoV-2 Mpro. In the first step, LB-PaCS-MD, which is regarded as a flexible docking, efficiently samples a set of ligand-binding pathways. After that, a reasonable docking pose of LB-PaCS-MD is evaluated by the FMO calculation to elucidate a set of protein-ligand interactions, enabling one to know the binding affinity of a specified ligand with respect to a target protein. A possible conformation was proposed for rubraxanthone binding to the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro active site, and allosteric inhibition was elucidated by combining blind docking with k-means clustering. The interaction profile, key binding residues, and considerable interaction were elucidated for rubraxanthone binding to both Mpro sites. Integrated LB-PaCS-MD/FMO provided a more reasonable complex structure for ligand binding at the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro active site, which is vital for discovering and designing antiviral drugs.

Abstract
Background:
Breast cancer is most commonly reported to contribute to people's death. Nowadays,
cancer treatment is focused on investigating anticancer drugs from natural compounds. Various
methods, including in vitro, in vivo, and in silico methods, are used to assess the potential of anticancer
compounds. The efficacy of bioactive compounds from medicinal plant origin lies in their affordability
and minimized side effects. The Garcinia genus contains bioactive compounds, such as xanthones, benzophenones,
triterpenes, biflavonoids, and benzoquinones.
Purpose:
The study aimed at investigating an active compound that can inhibit cancer cell growth and
proteins that contribute to cancer cell growth, such as Caspase-9, TNF-α, ER-α, and HER-2.
Methods:
This study is divided into three steps. The first step is the isolation of the active compound from
G. cymosa. The second step is an assessment of cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 cell by using MTT assay,
and the last one is an investigation of the molecular mechanism of an active compound against
Caspase-9, TNF-α, ER-α, and HER-2 by using in silico studies utilizing various programs, such as PyRx
0.8, PYMOL, and Discovery Studio.
Results:
Morelloflavone from G. cymosa stem barks has exhibited anticancer activity (55.84 μg/mL)
eight times lower than doxorubicin (6.99 μg/mL), but it can block the activity of Caspase-9, TNF-α, ER-
α, and HER-2. The binding affinity of morelloflavone is the strongest of all ligands.
Conclusion:
The natural flavonoid, morelloflavone, may be a new lead candidate for anticancer agent
inhibiting action mechanism of Caspase-9, TNF-α, ER-α, and HER-2, respectively.

Abstract
The annual number of cancer deaths continues increasing every day; thus, it is urgent to search for and find active, selective, and efficient anticancer drugs as soon as possible. Among the available anticancer drugs, almost all of them contain heterocyclic moiety in their chemical structure. Xanthone is a heterocyclic compound with a dibenzo-γ-pyrone framework and well-known to have "privileged structures" for anticancer activities against several cancer cell lines. The wide anticancer activity of xanthones is produced by caspase activation, RNA binding, DNA cross-linking, as well as P-gp, kinase, aromatase, and topoisomerase inhibition. This anticancer activity depends on the type, number, and position of the attached functional groups in the xanthone skeleton. This review discusses the recent advances in the anticancer activity of xanthone derivatives, both from natural products isolation and synthesis methods, as the anticancer agent through in vitro, in vivo, and clinical assays.

Abstract
This study aimed to isolate polyprenylated benzophenones from the rootbark of Garcinia celebica and assess their activities in vitro and in silico. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by the DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP methods. The cytotoxicity was evaluated against HeLa, MCF-7, A549, and B16 cancer cell lines. The antiplasmodial activity was performed against the chloroquine-sensitive Plasmodium falciparum strain 3D7. Molecular docking was analyzed on alpha-estrogen receptor (3ERT) and P. falciparum lactate dehydrogenase enzyme (1CET). The prediction of ADMET for the compounds was also studied. For the first time, (-)-cycloxanthochymol, isoxanthochymol, and xanthochymol were isolated from the root bark of Garcinia celebica. The antioxidant and cytotoxicity evaluation showed that all benzophenones exhibited antioxidant activity compared to gallic acid and quercetin as positive controls and also exhibited strong activity against HeLa, MCF-7, A549, and B16 cell lines compared to cisplatin as the positive control. The antiplasmodial evaluation showed that isoxanthochymol exhibited activity against the chloroquine-sensitive P. falciparum strain 3D7. In addition, the in silico molecular docking study supported in vitro activities. The ADMET analysis also indicated the isolated benzophenones are potential oral drug candidates.

Cytotoxic and Anti-Inflammatory Activities of Dihydroisocoumarin and Xanthone Derivatives from Garcinia picrorhiza. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26216626. [PMID: 34771035 PMCID: PMC8587515 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26216626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2021] [Revised: 10/03/2021] [Accepted: 10/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Garcinia picrorhiza, a woody plant native to Sulawesi and Maluku Islands, Indonesia, has been traditionally used as a wound healing ointment. In our continuous search for bioactive compounds from this plant, 15 phenolic compounds were isolated from its stem bark, including a previously undescribed dihydroisocoumarin, 2'-hydroxyannulatomarin, and two undescribed furanoxanthones, gerontoxanthone C hydrate and 3'-hydroxycalothorexanthone. The structures of the new metabolites were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS. Gerontoxanthone C hydrate possessed cytotoxicity against four cancer cells (KB, HeLa S3, MCF-7, and Hep G2) with IC50 values ranging from 5.6 to 7.5 µM. Investigation on the anti-inflammatory activities showed that 3'-hydroxycalothorexanthone inhibited NO production in RAW 264.7 and BV-2 cell lines with IC50 values of 16.4 and 13.8 µM, respectively, whereas only (-)-annulatomarin possessed inhibition activity on COX-2 enzyme over 10% at 20 µM. This work describes the presence of 3,4-dihydroisocoumarin structures with a phenyl ring substituent at C-3, which are reported the first time in genus Garcinia. These findings also suggest the potential of furanxanthone derivatives as cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory agents for further pharmacological studies.

Abstract
The 2,2-dimethyl-2H-chromene motif is widely found in many bioactive molecules, and is a privileged structure in the pharmaceutical arena. We have developed a concise and regioselective approach to chromenes and chromanes through an aryne-based synthetic strategy. A practical, gram-scale synthetic route to a chromene-type aryne precursor was explored. Subsequently, cyclization under mild conditions afforded tetracyclic xanthone skeletons with excellent regioselectivity. Our approach provides a concise strategy for the gram-scale synthesis of chromene-type xanthones such as 6-deoxyisojacareubin, cylindroxanthone D, staudtiixanthone D, brasilixanthone A and cudracuspixanthone O.

Abstract
Eight new polyprenylated benzoylphloroglucinol derivatives (1-8) and four known analogues (9-12) were isolated from the stem bark of Garcinia picrorhiza. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic data analysis (1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS), and the absolute configurations were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction combined with experimental and calculated ECD data. The new metabolites represent rare examples of benzoylphloroglucinols bearing a cyclobutyl-containing side chain. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic properties against five types of human cancer cells (KB, HeLa S3, MCF-7, Hep G2, and HT-29 cells) and their inhibitory activities against COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. The cytotoxicity results showed that compound 6 was active against KB, HeLa S3, MCF-7, and Hep G2 cancer cells, with IC50 values ranging from 5.9 to 9.4 μM. Among the compounds tested for cyclooxygenase inhibition, compound 8 possessed the highest inhibitory effect toward COX-1 (35.2 ± 9.6% inhibition at 20 μM).

Abstract
Xanthones are a class of heterocyclic natural products that have been widely studied for their pharmacological potential. In fact, they have been serving as scaffolds for the design of derivatives focusing on drug development. One of the main study targets of xanthones is their anticancer activity. Several compounds belonging to this class have already demonstrated cytotoxic and antitumor effects, making it a promising group for further exploration. This review therefore focuses on recently published studies, emphasizing their natural and synthetic sources and describing the main mechanisms of action responsible for the anticancer effect of promising xanthones.
