Divergent synthesis of fractionated Cannabis sativa extract led to multiple cannabinoids C-&O-glycosides with anti-proliferative/anti-metastatic properties. Bioorg Chem 2024; 143:107030. [PMID: 38091718 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2023.107030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/08/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
Here, we present an interesting, previously unreported method for fractionating a particular class of cannabinoids from the crude leaf extract of Cannabis sativa using HP-20 resins. In this study, we report a novel method of divergent synthesis of fractionated Cannabis sativa extract, which allows the generation of multiple cannabinoids C- and O-glycosides which react with the glycosyl donor 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-d-mannosyl trichloroacetimidate (TAMTA) to create eight C- and O-β-d-cannabinoids glycosides (COCG), which are separated by HPLC and whose structures are characterized by 1D, 2D NMR, and mass spectrometry. These glycosides exhibit improved anti-proliferative and anti-metastatic effects against numerous cancer cell lines in vitro and are more water-soluble and stable than their parent cannabinoids. The in vitro testing of the pure cannabinoids (1-4) and their C- & O-glycosides (1a-4a) and 1b-4b exhibited anti-proliferative and anti-metastatic activities against a panel of eight human cancer cell lines in contrast to their respective parent molecules. Different cancer cell lines' IC50 values varied significantly when their cell viability was compared. In addition to the others, compounds 2a, 3a, 4a, and 2b, 3b were highly potent, with IC50values ranging from 0.74 µM (3a) to 51.40 µM (4a).Although2a(1.42 µM) and3a(0.74 µM) exhibited lower IC50values in the MiaPaca-2 cell line than4a(2.58 µM). But, in addition to the comparable anti-clonogenic activity of4ain MiaPaca-2 and Panc-1 cells, it manifested remarkable anti-invasive activity than either 2a or 3a.In contrast to 2a, 2b, 3a, and 3b and their respective parent compounds,4ahad substantial anti-invasive/anti-metastatic capabilities and possessed anti-proliferative activity.The effects of 4a treatment on MiaPaca-2 and Panc-1 cells include a dose-dependent increase in the expression of E-cadherin and a significant decrease in the expression of Zeb-1, Vimentin, and Snail1. Our results demonstrate that divergent synthesis of fractionated Cannabis sativa extract is a feasible and efficient strategy to produce a library of novel cannabinoid glycosides with improved pharmacological properties and potential anticancer benefits.

Abstract
Two glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) derivatives having an alkynyl group at different positions were derived from the same orthogonally protected pentasaccharide that in turn was assembled by a convergent [3+2] glycosylation strategy. The resultant alkynylated GPIs are useful biological probes and are suitable for further modification by click reaction to obtain other GPI probes. The pentasaccharide is a versatile platform for the synthesis of various uniquely functionalized GPI probes.

Abstract
The use of a phenylthio group (SPh) as a dummy ligand at the 6-position to control the side-chain conformation of a series of hexopyranosyl donors is described. The SPh group limits side-chain conformation in a configuration-specific manner, which parallels that seen in the heptopyranosides, and so influences glycosylation selectivity. With both d- and l-glycero-d-galacto-configured donors, the equatorial products are highly favored as they are with an l-glycero-d-gluco donor. For the d-glycero-d-gluco donor, on the other hand, modest axial selectivity is observed. Selectivity patterns are discussed in terms of the side-chain conformation of the donors in combination with the electron-withdrawing effect of the thioacetal group. After glycosylation, removal of the thiophenyl moiety and hydrogenolytic deprotection is achieved in a single step with Raney nickel.

Abstract
The synthesis of a carbohydrate building block usually starts with introduction of a temporary protecting group at the anomeric center and ends with its selective cleavage for further transformation. Thus, the choice of the anomeric temporary protecting group must be carefully considered because it should retain intact during the whole synthetic manipulation, and it should be chemoselectively removable without affecting other functional groups at a late stage in the synthesis. Etherate groups are the most widely used temporary protecting groups at the anomeric center, generally including allyl ethers, MP (p-methoxyphenyl) ethers, benzyl ethers, PMB (p-methoxybenzyl) eithers, and silyl ethers. This chapter provides a comprehensive review on their formation, cleavage, and applications in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates.

Abstract
First, total synthesis of the cell surface phospholipomannan anchor [β-Manp-(1 → 2)-β-Manp]n-(1 → 2)-β-Manp-(1 → 2)-α-Manp-1 → P-(O → 6)-α-Manp-(1 → 2)-Inositol-1-P-(O → 1)-phytoceramide of Candida albicans is reported. The target phospholipomannan (PLM) anchor poses synthetic challenges such as the unusual kinetically controlled (1 → 2)-β-oligomannan domain, anomeric phosphodiester, and unique phytoceramide lipid tail linked to the glycan through a phosphate group. The synthesis of PLM anchor was accomplished using a convergent block synthetic approach using three main appropriately protected building blocks: (1 → 2)-β-tetramannan repeats, pseudodisaccharide, and phytoceramide-1-H-phosphonate. The most challenging (1 → 2)-β-tetramannan domain was synthesized in one pot using the preactivation method. The phytoceramide-1-H-phosphonate was synthesized through an enantioselective A3 three-component coupling reaction. Finally, the phytoceramide-1-H-phosphonate moiety was coupled with pseudodisaccharide followed by deacetylation to produce the acceptor, which on subsequent coupling with tetramannosyl-H-phosphonate provided the fully protected PLM anchor. Final deprotection was successfully achieved by Pearlman's hydrogenation.

Abstract
Mannose-6-phosphate (M6P)-containing N-linked glycans are essential signaling molecules for sorting hydrolases in eukaryotic cells. Their receptors, especially the cation-independent M6P receptors (CI-MPRs), have emerged as promising protein targets for targeted drug delivery for the treatment of lysosomal storage disease and liver fibrosis. In this Letter, we describe the design and synthesis of novel bivalent mimetic ligands for CI-MPRs. We report that for the first time, a newly-discovered binding motif, GlcNAc-M6P, has been incorporated in mimetic ligands. M6P- and GlcNAc-M6P-containing building blocks, equipped with NH2 and CO2H handles, have been prepared and assembled with an ornithine linker through amide coupling reactions. Efficient global deprotection protocols have also been developed which have been showcased in the synthesis of our novel bivalent mimetic ligands.

Abstract
Glycosylphosphatidylinositols (GPIs) are complex glycolipids that are covalently linked to the C-terminus of proteins as a posttranslational modification. They anchor the attached protein to the cell membrane and are essential for normal functioning of eukaryotic cells. GPI-anchored proteins are structurally and functionally diverse. Many GPIs have been structurally characterized but comprehension of their biological functions, beyond the simple physical anchoring, remains largely speculative. Work on functional elucidation at a molecular level is still limited. This Review focuses on the roles of GPI unraveled by using synthetic molecules and summarizes the structural diversity of GPIs, as well as their biological and chemical syntheses.

Abstract
Mannose-6-phosphate (M6P) containing N-linked glycans are the essential targeting signals for hydrolases sorting in eukaryotic cells. To facilitate their structural and binding analyses, a highly efficient and convergent method has been developed to prepare complex N-linked glycans with well-defined M6P and N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc)-M6P motifs, a newly identified binding element for M6P receptors. The GlcNAc-M6P motif was stereoselectively installed at the late stage of the synthesis. Sequential deprotection of benzyl and acetate groups provided the fully deprotected N-glycans in excellent yield.
