A novel strategy for the multi-components division and discovering pharmacodynamic material basis of Chinese herbal compounds: A case study of Xian-Ling-Gu-Bao capsule.

[PMID: 38513502 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2024.116112] [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: 01/18/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024]
Abstract
The therapeutic effects of Chinese herbal compounds are often achieved through the synergistic interactions of multiple ingredients. However, current research predominantly focuses on individual ingredients, neglecting the holistic nature of Chinese herbal compounds. This study proposes a novel strategy to elucidate the pharmacodynamic material basis of Chinese herbal compounds based on their multi-components (components named 'ZuFen' in China, it refers to multiple ingredients with similar chemical structures) composition, using the Xian-Ling-Gu-Bao (XLGB) capsule as a case study. Cheminformatics-based components partitioning was conducted after sourcing ingredients from various databases, resulting in a total of 856 ingredients which were categorized into nine major components. Furthermore, the pharmacodynamic ingredients of XLGB capsule were determined by analyzing the ingredients that were absorbed into the bloodstream. Through a combination of these ingredients and screening for absorption, the Dipsacus asper saponin components, Psoralea corylifolia coumarin components, and Epimedium flavonoid polyglycosides components were isolated. The anti-osteoporosis efficacy of these components were evaluated in zebrafish, demonstrating their capability to reverse mineralization reduction caused by prednisolone. These findings further support the idea that these components serve as the material basis for the pharmacological efficacy of XLGB capsule. This study provides a novel systematic strategy for discovering the pharmacodynamic material basis of the efficacy of Chinese herbal compounds based on a 'multi-components' perspective.

Abstract
Six new (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8) and seven known (4, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13) diterpenoids have been identified in the pulp of Coffea arabica. The structures of new diterpenoids were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D, 2D NMR (HSQC, HMBC, 1H-1H COSY, and ROESY), HRESIMS, IR, DP4+, electronic circular dichroism, and X-ray crystallography analysis. Compound 1 is ent-labdane-type diterpenoid, whereas compounds (2-13) are ent-kaurane diterpenoids. The result of α-glucosidase inhibitory assay demonstrated that compounds (1, 3, 5, 7, and 10) have moderate inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 55.23 ± 0.84, 74.02 ± 0.89, 66.46 ± 1.05, 49.70 ± 1.02, and 76.34 ± 0.46 μM, respectively, compared to the positive control (acarbose, 51.62 ± 0.21 μM). Furthermore, molecular docking analysis has been conducted to investigate the interaction between the compounds and the receptors of α-glucosidase to interpret their mechanism of activity. This study is the first investigation that successfully discovered the presence of diterpenoids within the coffee pulp.

Abstract
Coffee cherries contain a crucial flavor-precursor and chemical substances influencing roasted bean quality, yet limited knowledge exists on metabolite changes during cherry ripening. Our study identified 1078 metabolites, revealing 46 core differential metabolites using a KEGG pathway analysis. At the GF vs. ROF stage, amino acid synthesis dominated; ROF vs. BRF featured nucleotide catabolism; BRF vs. PRF exhibited glycoside and flavonoid synthesis; and PRF vs. PBF involved secondary metabolite synthesis and catabolism. The PRF stage emerged as the optimal cherry-harvesting period. A correlation analysis identified core differential metabolites strongly linked to taste indicators, suggesting their potential as taste markers. Notably, nucleotides and derivatives exhibited significant negative correlations with glycosides and flavonoids during ripening. This research systematically analyzed flavor and active substances in green coffee beans during cherry ripening, offering valuable insights into substance formation in Coffea arabica L.

Abstract
Phytochemical investigation of the trunks of Coffea canephora yielded two new ent-kaurane diterpene diastereomers, which have been named coffecanepholide A, ent-3β,16β,17-trihydroxykauran-18-al (1) and coffecanepholide B, ent-3β,16β,17-trihydroxykauran-19-al (2). Structural elucidation and configurational assignment were deduced from extensive spectroscopic NMR/HRESIMS analysis and by comparison with the spectral data of the literature relevant structures. The isolated compounds were assayed for in vitro inhibitory activities against α-glucosidase. Structure 2 showed the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 294.7 ± 0.9 μM, while compound 1 exhibited inactivity. In addition, the docking results revealed that structure 2 can form more interactions with amino acid residues at the active site of α-glucosidase, which gave a more negative binding energy (-9.56 kcal/mol) compared with 1 (-8.60 kcal/mol). This observation might be responsible for a better activity of 2 against α-glucosidase.

Abstract
Three new meroterpenoids, cochlearins J-L (1-3) and three known meroterpenoids (4-6) were isolated from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma cochlear. NMR (1H and 13C NMR, 1H - 1H COSY, HSQC, HMBC and ROESY), and HRESIMS were employed for the structure elucidation of new compounds. The stereostructures of 1-3 were confirmed by calculated ECD and optical rotation methods. Furthermore, compounds (+)-1, (-)-1, (+)-2, (-)-2, (+)-3, (-)-3, and 4-6 were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The results showed that compounds (+)-1, (-)-1 and (+)-2 exhibited stronger inhibition against α-glucosidase with IC50 values of 24.18 ± 1.98, 26.49 ± 3.20 and 29.68 ± 2.73 μM, respectively, compared to the positive control ursolic acid (49.65 ± 2.21 μM). The molecular docking experiments reveal that (+)-2 and (-)-2 had different binding mode with α-glucosidase, leading to their different inhibition.

Abstract
Stigma maydis (corn silk) (S. maydis) is a food-based by-product of maize and possesses great nutritional and pharmaceutical value. This study aimed to explore bioactive components from S. maydis. By the guidance of bioactivity-guided approach and Global Natural Products Social (GNPS) molecular networking, 12 terpenoids were discovered from S. maydis. The structures of 11 undescribed compounds (1-11) were determined by detailed spectroscopic analyses, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, specific rotation calculations, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations, and NMR calculations. The neuroprotective and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory effects of 1-12 were examined, and most of them showed significant or moderate activities. The underlying neuroprotective mechanism of 4 and 5 was revealed by Hoechst 33258, AO-EB, and JC-1 staining assays. This work illustrated the potential of S. maydis as a prospective natural source of bioactive compounds in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Four undescribed phloroglucinol meroterpenoids, rhodotomentodiones A-D, and one undescribed phloroglucinol dimer, rhodotomentodimer A, were obtained and structurally established from tropic Rhodomyrtus tomentosa leaves. Their structures were unambiguously elucidated based on the comprehensive analyses of the NMR and MS spectroscopic data, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In particular, rhodotomentodiones A and B represent the first examples of phloroglucinol meroterpenoids featuring a unique γ-pyranoid moiety. More importantly, rhodotomentodimer A exhibited the most potential human acetylcholinesterase (hAChE) and α-glucosidase inhibitory effects with IC50 values of 7.5 μM and 5.6 μM, respectively. The possible interaction sites of the above potential hAChE and α-glucosidase inhibitor were achieved by molecular docking studies. These findings greatly enrich the diversity of natural products from Myrtaceae species, and provide potential candidates for the further development of anti-Alzheimer and antidiabetic diseases.

Abstract
A total of 11 new (1-11) and 2 known (12 and 13) ent-kaurane diterpene derivatives were identified from the roasted beans of Coffea cultivar S288. Their structures were established by extensive spectroscopic analysis, including one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (heteronuclear single-quantum correlation, heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation, correlation spectroscopy, and rotating-frame Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy), high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and X-ray analyses. Cafespirone acid A (1) represents the first example of diterpene featuring a spirocyclic skeleton constructed from a 6/6/5 tricyclic system. Cafeane acid A (2) possesses a 6/6/6/5 tetracyclic system as a result of the C/D ring rearrangement. Furthermore, compounds 1-12 were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The results showed that compounds 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, and 11 had a moderate inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase, and half-maximal inhibitory concentration values of compounds 4, 6, 7, and 10 were 18.76 ± 1.46, 4.88 ± 0.03, 12.35 ± 0.91, and 12.64 ± 0.59 μM, respectively, compared to the positive control acarbose (60.71 ± 16.45 μM). Additionally, the molecular docking experiments showed that the carbonyl group at C-19 of compounds 4, 6, and 7 formed strong hydrogen bonds with ARG315, which may make them have moderate inhibitory activity.

[PMID: 34968905 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.131923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2021] [Revised: 12/09/2021] [Accepted: 12/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Seven new (1-4, 6-8) diterpenoids with rare skeletons and seven known ones (9, 12, 17, 18 and 23-25) were isolated from roasted beans of Coffea arabica L. Together with previously obtained diterpenoids, a total of 26 molecules (1-25, 4a) were evaluated their activities on Cav3.1 low voltage-gated Ca2+ channel. Compounds 1, 3, 6, 7, 12, 13, 17, 19 and 24 exhibited noticeable Cav3.1 inhibitions (41.2%-96.1%) at 10 μM. The IC50 values of 1, 6, 7, 12, 13, 17 and 24 are 2.9, 2.3, 0.68, 14.8, 11.6, 6.1 and 6.8 μM, respectively. The ring moiety at C-18 and C-19, and esterification of OH-17 with long-chain fatty acids seem important for their activities. Further studies indicated that 1 and cafestol may act on different binding sits with the Cav3.1 blocker Z944, which is in clinical trial. Significantly, the present study initially shows that coffee diterpenoids are potential natural resources for Cav3.1 inhibitors.

[PMID: 33352359 DOI: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2020.112618] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2020] [Revised: 12/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/04/2020] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
Thirteen undescribed dammarane triterpenoid saponins (cypaliurusides A-M), including eleven seco-dammarane type triterpenoids, were isolated from Cyclocarya paliurus. Each of these compounds has the unique feature of having a monosaccharide attached to C-11, rather than C-12, compared to the same type of saponins found in this plant. The structures of them were determined by comprehensive analysis of 1D, 2D NMR and HRESIMS data. Cypaliuruside J showed significant α-glucosidase inhibitory effect with IC50 value of 2.22 ± 0.13 μM. In addition, Cypaliurusides F and K exhibited modest cytotoxic activities against selected human cancer cell lines in vitro, with IC50 values ranging from 4.61 ± 0.13 to 15.23 ± 3.88 μM.

[PMID: 33341560 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2020.128823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2020] [Revised: 12/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Ten new (1-10) and five known (11-15) ent-kaurane diterpene derivatives were identified from the roasted beans of coffea arabica. Their structures were established by extensive spectroscopic analysis including 1D, 2D NMR (HSQC, HMBC, COSY, and ROESY), HRESIMS, and X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 1-3 were three types of rearranged ent-kaurane diterpenes, and compounds 4 and 5 were diterpene esters with a rare 6-hydroxyhexanoyl at C-17. Compounds 6, 8, 14, and 15 showed moderate inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase with IC50 values of 149.92 ± 2.52, 23.23 ± 1.03, 54.58 ± 4.21, 54.16 ± 3.95 μM, respectively, compared to the positive control (60.71 ± 16.45 μM). The results of activity assay showed that diterpenes with the double bond between C-15 and C-16 exhibited stronger α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Further molecular docking experiments were adopted to discuss the mechanism of activity.
