A role of uroleuconaphins, polyketide red pigments in aphid, as a chemopreventor in the host defense system against infection with entomopathogenic fungi. J Antibiot (Tokyo) 2018; 71:992-999. [PMID: 30127422 DOI: 10.1038/s41429-018-0093-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2018] [Revised: 08/01/2018] [Accepted: 08/04/2018] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
Four red polyketide pigments, uroleuconaphins A1 (1) and B1 (2) and their glucosides 3 and 4, were isolated from the red goldenrod aphid Uroleucon nigrotuberculatum. Although these red pigments exist only as glucosides 3 and 4 in the intact insect body, 3 and 4 convert instantly to aglycones 1 and 2 at death. Pigments 1 and 2 inhibited the growth of Lecanicillium sp. (Ascomycota: Cordycipitaceae) and 1, 2, and 3 were active against Conidiobolus obscurus (Entomophthoromycota; Entomophthorales); these fungal species are pathogenic. We therefore regard aphid pigments 1-4 as chemopreventive agents that aid in the resistance of infection by entomopathogenic fungi at the level of the individual aphid and/or at the species level.

Steroidal Glycosides from Convallaria majalis Whole Plants and Their Cytotoxic Activity. Int J Mol Sci 2017; 18:ijms18112358. [PMID: 29112119 PMCID: PMC5713327 DOI: 10.3390/ijms18112358] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2017] [Revised: 11/01/2017] [Accepted: 11/02/2017] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Phytochemical examination of Convallaria majalis (Liliaceae) whole plants yielded 15 steroidal glycosides (1–15), including nine new compounds (4–6, 10–15) with a lycotetrose unit. The structures of the new compounds were determined using two-dimensional Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses and chemical methods. The isolated compounds were evaluated for cytotoxicity against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells, A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells, and HSC-4 and HSC-2 human oral squamous cell carcinoma cell lines. Of these, (25S)-spirost-5-en-3β-yl O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-O-[β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1→3)]-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-d-galactopyranoside (1) exhibited cytotoxic activity against HL-60, A549, HSC-4, and HSC-2 cells with IC50 values ranging from 0.96 to 3.15 μM. The corresponding furostanol glycoside of 1, (25S)-26-[(β-d-glucopyranosyl)oxy]-22α-hydroxyfurost-5-en-3β-yl O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-O-[β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1→3)]-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-d-galactopyranoside (8), was cytotoxic to the adherent cell lines of A549, HSC-4, and HSC-2 cells with IC50 values of 2.97, 11.04, and 8.25 μM, respectively. The spirostanol lycotetroside (1) caused necrotic cell death in A549 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Alternatively, the furostanol lycotetroside (8) induced apoptotic cell death in A549 cells in a time-dependent manner, as was evident by morphological observations and flow cytometry analyses.

Abstract
A strategy for rapid identification of the chemical constituents from crude extracts of Tribulus terrestris was proposed using an informatics platform for the UHPLC/Q-TOF MSE data analyses. This strategy mainly utilizes neutral losses, characteristic fragments, and in-house library to rapidly identify the structure of the compounds. With this strategy, rapid characterization of the chemical components of T. terrestris from Beijing, China was successfully achieved. A total of 82 steroidal saponins and nine flavonoids were identified or tentatively identified from T. terrestris. Among them, 15 new components were deduced based on retention times and characteristic MS fragmentation patterns. Furthermore, the chemical components of T. terrestris, including the other two samples from Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous region, China, and Rome, Italy, were also identified with this strategy. Altogether, 141 chemical components were identified from these three samples, of which 39 components were identified or tentatively identified as new compounds, including 35 groups of isomers. It demonstrated that this strategy provided an efficient protocol for the rapid identification of chemical constituents in complex samples such as traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) by UHPLC/Q-TOF MSE with informatics platform.

Abstract
Three new sesquiterpenoids-vetiverianines A (1), B (2), and C (3)-and a known eudesmane sesquiterpenoid (4) were isolated from the roots of Vetiveria zizanioides. Vetiverianine A (1) has a unique carbon framework comprising a rigid tricyclic ring system. Vetiverianines B (2) and C (3) are new eremophilane sesquiterpenoids. The structures of sesquiterpenoids 1-3, including the absolute configurations, were determined by NMR spectroscopic, X-ray crystallography, and vibrational circular dichroism data analysis. Vetiverianine C (3) exhibited weak cytotoxic activity against HL-60 cells.

JOURNAL OF ASIAN NATURAL PRODUCTS RESEARCH 2016; 18:837-847.

Abstract
Phytochemical investigation of the seeds of Thevetia peruviana resulted in the isolation of seven cardiac glycosides (1-7), including two new compounds (1 and 2). Cytotoxicity of them toward cancer cell lines P15 (human lung cancer cell), MGC-803 (human gastric cancer cells), SW1990 (human pancreatic cancer cells), and normal hepatocyte cell LO2 suggested that compound 1 could selectively inhibit the proliferation of cancer cell lines with IC50 from 0.05 to 0.15 μM. Pro-apoptotic activity revealed that it induced the apoptosis of MGC-803 cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. Meanwhile, treatment of MGC-803 cancer cells with 1 resulted in diminution of pro-caspases 3 and 9 and activation of caspases 3 and 9, while it increased the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio in a dose-dependent manner. These meant that 1 induced the apoptosis of cancer cells by involving the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. In addition, the cell cycle distribution of MGC-803 cancer cells treated by 1 revealed that it could lead to cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase. Altogether, this study suggested that compound 1 may exhibit anticancer activity by its capability of induction of intrinsic apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase.

Abstract
A further chemical investigation of the bulbs of Bessera elegans (Liliaceae) led to the isolation of a new homoisoflavonoid (1), a new scillascillin-type homoisoflavonoid (2), three known flavonoids (3–5), and two known norlignans (6 and 7). The structures of the new homoisoflavonoids (1 and 2) were determined based on the results of extensive spectroscopic analysis, including two-dimensional NMR data. The isolated compounds (1–7) were evaluated for cytotoxicity against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells and TIG-3 normal human diploid fibroblasts. Compound 1 exhibited potent tumor-selective cytotoxic activity against HL-60 cells.
