Abstract
Employing an MS/MS-based molecular networking-guided strategy, three new eudesmane-type sesquiterpenes (1-3) and one undescribed pseudoguaianolide sesquiterpene (8), along with four known eudesmane-type sesquiterpene lactones (4-7) were extracted and purified from the herbs of Carpesium abrotanoides L. Structural elucidation encompassed comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, NMR calculations, DP4+ analysis, and ECD calculations. The cytotoxicity activity of all isolates was evaluated against two human hepatoma carcinoma cells (HepG2 and Hep3B) in vitro. It was demonstrated that compounds 2 and 4 showed moderate cytotoxic against HepG2 and Hep3B cells. Furthermore, all compounds were evaluated for their acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity. Particularly noteworthy is that, in comparison to the positive control, compound 1 demonstrated significant AChE inhibition with an inhibition rate of 77.86%. In addition, the inhibitory mechanism of compound 1 were investigated by in silico docking analyze and molecular dynamic simulation.

Wang F, Liu L, Zhu Z, Aisa HA, Xin X. Anti-inflammatory effect and mechanism of active parts of Artemisia mongolica in LPS-induced Raw264.7 cells based on network pharmacology analysis. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 321:117509. [PMID: 38030026 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Artemisia mongolica is well known for its use in folk medicine, it is commonly used to alleviate a variety of diseases associated with inflammation, such as laryngitis, tonsillitis, headaches and hepatitis in northwest China. However, its anti-inflammatory mechanism is still unknown. AIM OF THE STUDY The most potential anti-inflammatory part (AMPA) was identified by screening individual parts of A. Mongolica. After the network pharmacological analysis, the anti-inflammation effects and molecular mechanisms of AMPA were evaluated in RAW264.7 cells induced by LPS. MATERIALS AND METHODS AMPA was chosen as the most anti-inflammatory of the A. Mongolica, as measured by the effect of each part of the A. Mongolica on NO and COX-2. The chemical composition of AMPA was identified using HPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS, and targets of bioactive chemicals and targets related to inflammation were found using open-source databases. The "Compound-targets" network and PPI network were established by combining compounds and overlapped targets, and targets in the PPI networks were analyzed by GO and KEGG enrichment. The RAW26.7 cells induced by LPS were used as a model of inflammation examination. MTT assay was performed to assess the cytotoxicity of AMPA on LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. The level of NO was measured by the Griess method while the inflammatory factors were detected by ELISA. The protein expression levels of iNOS, COX-2, MAPK, NF-κB signaling pathway and AMPK/Nrf2-related proteins were determined by Western blot. The results of nuclear translocation of p65 and Nrf2 were analyzed by immunofluorescence assay. RESULTS A total of 18 compounds with potential bioactivity were identified, and after intersecting 640 compound-predicted targets and 1608 inflammation targets, the compounds and intersected targets were utilized to structure "compound-target" and PPI networks. Among AMPA, AM6, AM7, AM11, AM8 and AM1 compounds were essential in the "compound-targets" network, meanwhile, TNF, RELA, MAPK1, NOS2, PRKAG, and PTGS2 targets play important roles in the PPI network. The top 10 terms and pathways were obtained based on GO and KEGG. The cell experiments show that 50 μg/mL was the maximum concentration of AMPA without cytotoxicity in the LPS-induced RAW264.7 cell model. When compared with the LPS group, AMPA treatment not only effectively suppressed the generation of NO, TNF-α, IL-6, PGE2, IL-1β and MCP-1 in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells, but also down-regulated the expression of COX-2, iNOS and the protein levels p-ERK, p-p38, p-IκB-α and p-p65, inhibited the nuclear translocation of p65. Furthermore, the expression levels of p-LKB1, p-AMPK, Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins were up-regulated and Nrf2 nuclear translocation was promoted. CONCLUSION AMPA should be considered an anti-inflammatory agent for the results of network pharmacology and in vitro, which could inhibit the MAPK pathway and NF-κB pathway and activate the AMPK/Nrf2 pathway in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells.

Abstract
Aschantin, a tetrahydrofurofuran lignan with a 1,3-benzodioxole group derived from Flos Magnoliae, exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, and antimicrobial activities. This study compared the metabolic profiles of aschantin in human, dog, mouse, and rat hepatocytes using liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry. The hepatic extraction ratio of aschantin among the four species was 0.46-0.77, suggesting that it undergoes a moderate-to-extensive degree of hepatic metabolism. Hepatocyte incubation of aschantin produced 4 phase 1 metabolites, including aschantin catechol (M1), O-desmethylaschantin (M2 and M3), and hydroxyaschantin (M4), and 14 phase 2 metabolites, including O-methyl-M1 (M5 and M6) via catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT), six glucuronides of M1, M2, M3, M5, and M6, and six sulfates of M1, M2, M3, M5, and M6. Enzyme kinetic studies using aschantin revealed that the production of M1, a major metabolite, via O-demethylenation is catalyzed by cytochrome 2C8 (CYP2C8), CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5 enzymes; the formation of M2 (O-desmethylaschantin) is catalyzed by CYP2C9 and CYP2C19; and the formation of M4 is catalyzed by CYP3A4 enzyme. Two glutathione (GSH) conjugates of M1 were identified after incubation of aschantin with human and animal liver microsomes in the presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate and GSH, but they were not detected in the hepatocytes of all species. In conclusion, aschantin is extensively metabolized, producing 18 metabolites in human and animal hepatocytes catalyzed by CYP, COMT, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, and sulfotransferase. These results can help in clarifying the involvement of metabolizing enzymes in the pharmacokinetics and drug interactions of aschantin and in elucidating GSH conjugation associated with the reactive intermediate formed from M1 (aschantin catechol).

Abstract
Five known furofuran lignans, dia-sesamin (1), 5-methoxysesamin (2), epi-magnolin (3), kobusin (4) and yangambin (5) were isolated for the first-time from the oleo-gum resin of Commiphora wightii. This is the first report on the 13C NMR assignments for epi-magnolin (3). Each of the isolated compounds was evaluated for its ability to inhibit MIA PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cell line. Among them, epi-magnolin (3) displayed potential activity (IC50 = 29 nM) compared to colchicine (IC50 = 56 nM). 3D-flexible alignment revealed that epi-magnolin (3) has great matching with the tubulin polymerization inhibitor, colchicine. Meanwhile, docking studies exhibited that compounds 1-5 displayed good binding free energies against colchicine binding site (CBS) of tubulin with binding modes that were highly comparable to that of colchicine. Compounds 2, 3, and 5 showed superior binding free energies than colchicine (-24.37 kcal/mol). epi-Magnolin (3) showed the highest binding score against CBS. MD simulation studies confirmed the stability of epi-magnolin (3) in the active site for 200 ns. Furthermore, four online servers (Swiss ADME, pkCSM pharmacokinetics, AdmetSAR, and ProTox-II) were utilized to predict the ADMET parameters. The in-silico pharmacokinetics predictions reveled that epi-magnolin (3) has significant oral bioavailability and drug-like capabilities.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Context: Mitrephora sirikitiae Weeras., Chalermglin & R.M.K. Saunders (Annonaceae) is a plant endemic to Thailand. Its constituents and their biological activities are unknown.Objective: Isolation and identification of the compounds in the leaves and stems of M. sirikitiae and determination of their cytotoxicity.Materials and methods: Methanol extracts of the leaves and stems of M. sirikitiae were separated by chromatography, and spectroscopic methods were used to determine the structures of the components. The cytotoxicity of the extracts and pure compounds was evaluated using the sulforhodamine B assay with several cell lines. The cells were treated with the compounds at concentrations of 0.16-20 µg/mL for 48 or 72 h.Results: The investigation of the extracts of M. sirikitiae leaves and stems resulted in the isolation of a new lignan, mitrephoran, and 15 known compounds. Among these compounds, 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-6-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-3,7-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octane, ciliaric acid, 6-methoxymarcanine A, and stepharanine were isolated from this genus for the first time. The alkaloids liriodenine and oxoputerine exhibited strong cytotoxicity against all tested cells (IC50 values of 6.59-11.02 µM). In contrast, magnone A, 3',4-O-dimethylcedrusin, and 6-methoxymarcanine A inhibited the growth of some of the tested cells (IC50 values of 2.03-19.73 µM). Magnone A and 6-methoxymarcanine A showed low toxicity for Hek 293 cells (IC50 >20 µM).Discussion and conclusions: M. sirikitiae is a source of cytotoxic lignans and alkaloids. Among the cytotoxic compounds, magnone A and 6-methoxymarcanine A are potentially useful lead compounds for the further development of anticancer agents because of their selective inhibitory effects on cancer cell lines.

Abstract
Artemisia sieversiana is an annual herbaceous plant distributed throughout Central and East Eurasia and is regarded as an undesirable forage plant in Mongolia. It affects livestock, so information about its chemical composition is needed. We isolated three new sesquiterpenoids (1-3) and known compounds from A. sieversiana and investigated their activities. The absolute configuration of 1 was established using single-crystal X-ray diffraction crystallography, and its configuration differed from those of reported compounds with similar structures. Two additional new sesquiterpenoids (2 and 3) with similar structures were identified, and their configurations were determined. The trypanocidal activities of the isolated compounds (1-18) against Trypanosoma congolense and the pathogen responsible for fatal trypanosomosis in animals were estimated. Flavonoids and lignans were identified as active compounds with IC50 values ranging from 2.9 to 90.2 µM.

Abstract
Eight furofuranone lignans with an endo,endo relationship between the oxygen atoms, an exo,exo relationship between the aryl groups, and a chair,chair conformation (1-4 and 6-9), in addition to the α-amino acid (3S)-hydroxy-3',4'-dimethoxy-L-phenylalanine (5), veratric acid (10), and β-sitosterol (11), were isolated from the powdered and defatted air-dried aerial parts of Leucophyllum ambiguum. Four of these lignans, ciquitins A-D, 1-4, were isolated for the first time as natural products. The structures of these compounds were established based on their spectrometric/spectroscopic data. Additionally, single-crystal X-ray crystallography confirmed the structure of ciquitin A (1), and derivatization with (9S)-naproxen and X-ray diffraction crystallography data established its absolute configuration. Ciquitins A (1) and B (2) possess a 9-hydroxy group; this chemical characteristic grants these species conformational isomerism not seen in the other six lignans. The conformers of 1 and 2 are distinguishable via their 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic data. This is the first report of this phenomenon, and hence, a complete assignment of the signals in both spectra of each conformer for each compound is presented. Compounds 1-9 were found to exhibit potent inhibitory activity in the 1.0 × 10-3 to 2.2 μM range against acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme directly involved in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease and senile dementia. Thus, these natural products are promising agents that are potentially useful for the treatment of neurological degeneration.

Abstract
Seven new butanolides, peltanolides A–G (1–7), and two lignan glucosides, peltasides A (8) and B (9), along with eleven known compounds, 10–20, were isolated from a crude CH3OH/CH2Cl2 (1:1) extract of the fruit of Hernandia nymphaeifolia (Hernandiaceae). The structures of 1–9 were characterized by extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic and HRMS analysis. The absolute configurations of newly isolated compounds 1–9 were determined from data obtained by optical rotation and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) exciton chirality methods. Butanolides and lignan glucosides have not been isolated previously from this genus. Several isolated compounds were evaluated for antiproliferative activity against human tumor cell lines. Lignans 15 and 16 were slightly active against chemosensitive tumor cell lines A549 and MCF-7, respectively. Furthermore, both compounds displayed significant activity (IC50 = 5 µM) against a P-glycoprotein overexpressing multidrug-resistant tumor cell line (KB-VIN) but were less active against its parent chemosensitive cell line (KB).

Abstract
The speciation of a methanolic extract of Zanthoxylum armatum stem bark has enabled the isolation and characterization of 11 known lignans. Among them, five compounds (6, 8-11) are reported in this plant for the first time. All of the chemical structures were elucidated on the basis of NMR spectral analysis. Additionally, their antifeedant activities against Tribolium castaneum were evaluated scientifically. Among them, asarinin (1), with an EC50 of 25.64 ppm, exhibited a much stronger antifeedant activity than the positive control, toosendanin (EC50 = 71.69 ppm). Moreover, fargesin (2), horsfieldin (3), and magnolone (10), with EC50 values of 63.24, 68.39, and 78.37 ppm, showed almost the same antifeedant activity as the positive control. From the perspective of structure-effectiveness relationship, compounds with the chemical group of methylenedioxy exhibited higher antifeedant activities and have potential to be developed into novel antifeedants or potential lead compounds to protect food and crops in storage.

Abstract
A systematic bioassay-guided fractionation of methylene chloride extracts of the aerial part of Artemisia arborescens was performed in order to identify its phytotoxic compounds Two lignans were isolated, sesamin and ashantin, that inhibited growth of Agrostis stolonifera (bentgrass), a monocot, and Lactuca sativa (lettuce), a dicot, at 1 mg mL–1. In a dose-response screening of these lignans for growth inhibition against Lemna paucicostata (duckweed), ashantin was the most active with an IC50 of ca. 224 μM. The mode of action of these compounds is still unknown. In mosquito larvicidal bioassays the pure compounds sesamin and ashantin did not cause mortality at the highest dose of 125 mg/L against 1-d-old Aedes aegypti larvae. In bioautography bioassays for antifungal activity using Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium oxysporum, Colletotrichum fragariae, Colletotrichum acutatum, and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, ashantin and sesamin were inactive at 5 μg and were therefore not subjected to additional screening in secondary antifungal assays.

Abstract
The phytochemical profile of Macropiper excelsum (G.Forst.) Miq. subsp. excelsum (Piperaceae), a shrub which is widespread in New Zealand, was investigated by LC-MS-guided isolation and characterization via HR-ESI-TOF-MS and NMR spectroscopy. The isolated compounds were sensorily evaluated to identify their contribution to the overall taste of the crude extract with sweet, bitter, herbal and trigeminal impressions. Besides the known non-volatile Macropiper compounds, the lignans (+)-diayangambin and (+)-excelsin, four further excelsin isomers, (+)-diasesartemin, (+)-sesartemin, (+)-episesartemin A and B were newly characterized. Moreover, piperine and a number of piperine analogues as well as trans-pellitorine and two homologues, kalecide and (2E,4E)-tetradecadienoic acid N-isobutyl amide were identified in M. excelsum, some of them for the first time. Methyl(2E,4E)-7-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)hepta-2,4-dienoate was identified and characterized for the first time in nature. Sensory analysis of the pure amides indicated that they contributed to the known chemesthetic effects of Macropiper leaves and fruits. Since the pungent piperine has been shown to affect glucose and fatty acid metabolism in vivo in previous studies, piperine itself and four of the isolated compounds, piperdardine, chingchengenamide A, dihydropiperlonguminine, and methyl(2E,4E)-7-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)hepta-2,4-dienoate, were investigated regarding their effects on glucose and fatty acid uptake by enterocyte-like Caco-2 cells, in concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 μM. Piperdardine showed the most pronounced effect, with glucose uptake increased by 83 ± 18% at 100 μM compared to non-treated control cells. An amide group seems to be advantageous for glucose uptake stimulation, but not necessarily for fatty acid uptake-stimulating effects of piperine-related compounds.

Abstract
An unusual tetrahydrofuran lignin, zanthplanispine (1), together with 14 known lignans (2 - 15) were isolated from the AcOEt-soluble fraction from the MeOH extract of Z. planispinum roots. The structures of 1 was elucidated on the basis of 1D- and 2D-NMR experiments as well as HR-ESI-MS analysis. The known compounds were identified by the comparison of their NMR data with previously reported in the literatures. Bioassay showed that compounds 1 - 4 could inhibit nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. In particular, compound 1 showed significant inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 36.8 μm.

Flos Magnoliae (FM) is a commonly used Chinese medicinal herb for symptomatic relief of allergic rhinitis, sinusitis and headache. Although several FM species have been used as substitutes or adulterants for clinical use, possible differences in their pharmacological actions have not been reported. To confirm the effects of FM on skeletal muscle glucose metabolism, we tested the effects of several compounds isolated from FM on glucose uptake by L6 myotubes. We found that fargesin, a component of FM, dose-dependently stimulated glucose consumption in L6 myotubes, which was accompanied by enhanced glucose transporter (GLUT)-4 translocation to the cell surface. Fargesin-stimulated glucose uptake was blocked by wortmannin, a phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3 K) inhibitor. Fargesin stimulated Akt phosphorylation, a key component in the insulin signaling pathway, which was completely inhibited by wortmannin. Here, we demonstrated that fargesin, a bioactive component of Flos Magnoliae, increases basal glucose uptake and GLUT4 translocation in L6 myotubes by activating the PI3 K-Akt pathway.

Abstract
The chemical composition of the aerial parts of the Cape Verdean endemic shrub Artemisia gorgonum Webb (Asteraceae) was careful investigated, which led to the isolation and identification of six known furfuran lignans: eudesmin (1), magnolin (2), epimagnolin A (3), aschantin (4), kobusin (5), sesamin (6) and a flavone: artemetin (7). Compounds 1-7 were evaluated in vitro for their cytotoxicity in a screening panel consisting of various mammalian tumor cell lines, for their antimalarial activity against chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum (FcB1 strain) and for their cytotoxicity against murine normal cells (CFU-GM). While no promising cytotoxicity against human tumor cells were noticed, marginal potency and selectivity was found for compounds 1-5 against murine colon 38. Besides, compounds 2-7 showed mild antiplasmodial activities, 6 and 7 being the most active compounds (IC(50) 3.37 and 3.50 μg/ml respectively) without noticeable toxicity on mammalian normal cells. This is the first report of antiplasmodial activity for furfuran lignans and the first isolation of 1-7 from Artemisia gorgonum.

Abstract
Achillea species are widely used for diarrhea, abdominal pain, stomachache and healing of wounds in folk medicine. To evaluate the wound healing activity of the plant, extracts were prepared with different solvents; hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanol, respectively from the roots of Achillea biebersteinii. Linear incision by using tensiometer and circular excision wound models were employed on mice and rats. The wound healing effect was comparatively evaluated with the standard skin ointment Madecassol. The n-hexane extract treated groups of animals showed 84.2% contraction, which was close to contraction value of the reference drug Madecassol (100%). On the other hand the same extract on incision wound model demonstrated a significant increase (40.1%) in wound tensile strength as compared to other groups. The results of histoptological examination supported the outcome of linear incision and circular excision wound models as well. The experimental data demonstrated that A. biebersteinii displayed remarkable wound healing activity.

Abstract
Activated microglia produces diverse neurotoxic factors such as nitric oxide (NO) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha that serve as apoptotic inducers resulting in various neurodegenerative diseases. The inhibition of microglia-derived NO production by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) has been reported to be beneficial in retarding neurodegenerative disorders. Three active lignans have been isolated from the flower buds of Magnolia fargesii by the bioassay-guided fractionation using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated BV-2 microglial cell culture system. The structures of them were identified as kobusin (1), aschantin (2) and fargesin (3) by the analyses of spectroscopic data. They inhibited the production of NO by activated microglia. Their IC(50) values were 21.8 +/- 3.7, 14.8 +/- 2.5 and 10.4 +/- 2.8 microg/mL, respectively. They suppressed LPS-induced NF-kappaB activation and the expression of iNOS protein and mRNA. Furthermore, they showed scavenging activity of neurotoxic peroxynitrite that can be produced by NO and superoxide anion. These results imply that lignans from Magnolia fargesii might be beneficial for the treatment of neuro-inflammatory diseases through the inhibition of iNOS expression and peroxynitrite scavenging potential.

Abstract
Chromatographic investigation of the methylene chloride/methanol extract of aerial parts of Achillea coarctata afforded two new guaiane acid derivatives, 1α,6α,8α-trihydroxy-5α,7βH-guaia-3,10(14),11(13)-trien-12-oic acid (1) and 1α,6α,8α-trihydroxy-5α,7βH-guaia-3,9,11(13)-trien-12-oic acid (2), in addition to three known compounds, ligustolide-A (3), arteludovicinolide-A (4) and austricin (5). Structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses including: 1H and 13C NMR, COSY, HMQC, HMBC and NOESY NMR spectroscopy, as well as MS analysis. Proliferation of beneficial macrophages was significantly enhanced by treatment with 1 and 2. Additionally, treatment with compounds 2 and 4 led to a potentially significant inhibition in nitric oxide generation from raw murine macrophage 264.7, which was stimulated by bacterial lipopolysaccharide. Compounds 2 and 4 exhibited anti-inflammatory properties, based on a nitric oxide assay.

Abstract
Guggulu, the gum resin from Commiphora mukul, is one of the components of various formulations of traditional Ayurvedic medicine to treat inflammation, obesity, and lipid disorders. In most preparations of Ayurvedic medicine in India, guggulu is boiled prior to its use. Therefore, guggulu was boiled with H2O prior to extractions in our study. Bioassay-guided isolation of compounds from the hexane-soluble portion of the MeOH extract of guggulu yielded cembrenoids, 1-6, a bicyclic diterpene, 7, guggulusterone derivatives, 8-11, myrrhanone derivatives, 12, myrrhanol derivative, 13, and a lignan, 14. The structures of these compounds were confirmed by spectroscopic methods. Compounds 5, 6, 7, 10, and 12-14 are novel. These compounds were assayed for lipid peroxidation and cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme inhibitory activities. At 100 ppm, compounds 3, 6, and 14 inhibited the lipid peroxidation by 79, 57, and 58%, respectively, and the rest of isolated compounds showed 20-40% inhibitory activity with respect to the controls. In COX-1 and COX-2 enzyme inhibitory assays, compound 3 showed 79 and 83%, and compound 8 gave 67 and 54% of inhibition, respectively, at 100 ppm. All fourteen compounds inhibited COX-1 enzyme at 100 ppm. The lipid peroxidation and COX enzyme inhibitory activities exhibited by compounds isolated from C. mukul may substantiate its use in traditional medicine.

Abstract
The extracts of aerial parts of Achillea clavennae, Achillea holosericea, Achillea lingulata and Achillea millefolium (hexane:ether:methanol=1:1:1) have been tested for antimicrobial activity in a disk diffusion assay against five bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella enteritidis) and two fungi (Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans). Extracts of all four species possessed a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against all tested strains. The composition of the extract of Achillea clavennae, which showed the strongest activity, was investigated and the structures of isolated compounds were elucidated by spectral means (1D and 2D NMR, UV, IR and MS). The extract yielded alkanes, fatty acids, monoterpenes, guaiane sesquiterpenes (rupicolin A and B, 1-deoxy-1alpha-peroxy-rupicolin A and B), and flavonoids (apigenin and centaureidin). This study confirms the ethnopharmacological use of plants from this genus and places Achillea clavennae L. on the same level as the recognized Achillea millefolium.
