Structural Characterization and Anticancer Activity of a New Anthraquinone from Senna velutina (Fabaceae). Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:951. [PMID: 37513863 PMCID: PMC10385181 DOI: 10.3390/ph16070951] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, a novel compound was isolated, identified, and its chemical structure was determined from the extract of the roots of Senna velutina. In addition, we sought to evaluate the anticancer potential of this molecule against melanoma and leukemic cell lines and identify the pathways of cell death involved. To this end, a novel anthraquinone was isolated from the barks of the roots of S. velutina, analyzed by HPLC-DAD, and its molecular structure was determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Subsequently, their cytotoxic activity was evaluated by the (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) method against non-cancerous, melanoma, and leukemic cells. The migration of melanoma cells was evaluated by the scratch assay. The apoptosis process, caspase-3 activation, analysis of mitochondrial membrane potential, and measurement of ROS were evaluated by flow cytometry technique. In addition, the pharmacological cell death inhibitors NEC-1, RIP-1, BAPTA, Z-VAD, and Z-DEVD were used to confirm the related cell death mechanisms. With the results, it was possible to elucidate the novel compound characterized as 2'-OH-Torosaol I. In normal cells, the compound showed no cytotoxicity in PBMC but reduced the cell viability of all melanoma and leukemic cell lines evaluated. 2'-OH-Torosaol I inhibited chemotaxis of B16F10-Nex2, SK-Mel-19, SK-Mel-28 and SK-Mel-103. The cytotoxicity of the compound was induced by apoptosis via the intrinsic pathway with reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, increased levels of reactive oxygen species, and activation of caspase-3. In addition, the inhibitors demonstrated the involvement of necroptosis and Ca2+ in the death process and confirmed caspase-dependent apoptosis death as one of the main programmed cell death pathways induced by 2'-OH-Torosaol I. Taken together, the data characterize the novel anthraquinone 2'-OH-Torosaol I, demonstrating its anticancer activity and potential application in cancer therapy.

Manhas RS, Kumar A, Chaubey A. A biostatistical approach for augmenting rare bianthraquinone antibiotic production by Streptomyces sp. RA-WS2 using Taguchi design. AMB Express 2022; 12:155. [PMID: 36515787 DOI: 10.1186/s13568-022-01497-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Accepted: 11/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Consistent production of bioactives from microbial sources remains a big challenge for fermentation based bio-processes. Setomimycin, a rare 9,9'-bianthrylanthracene antibiotic reported to be active against Gram positive bacteria i.e. Staphyloccocus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, and Mycobacterium smegmatis, including mycobacteria is one of the least exploited antibiotic. Present work aims to enhance and maximize setomimycin production using One Factor at a Time (OFAT) approach, followed by Taguchi L9 orthogonal array (OA) design in 30L fermenter. Four most influential parameters, namely carbon source, nitrogen source, air and agitation were selected for optimization studies. The optimized production medium supplemented with 150 g/L glycerol and 7.5 g/L soyabean meal with an agitation rate of 100 RPM and air flow rate of 20 LPM (Liters Per Minute) resulted in 675 mg/L setomimycin production within 96-108 h of fermentation as compared to the initial production i.e. 40 mg/L. Thus, an overall enhancement of 16.8 folds was achieved in setomimycin production after optimization in 30L fermenter.

Isolation and anticancer activity evaluation of rare Bisaryl anthraquinone antibiotics from novel Streptomyces sp. strain of NW Himalayan region. Chem Biol Interact 2022; 365:110093. [PMID: 35985519 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2022.110093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Revised: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Biosynthesis of bisaryl preanthraquinone antibiotics by various microorganisms differs in monomeric subunits as well as their dimerization positions leading to different configurations. The present study relates to the production of rare bisaryl anthraquinone antibiotics by a new Streptomyces strain isolated from Shivalik region of NW Himalayas. In vitro anticancer and anti-migratory effects of Setomimycin (9,9' bisanthraquinone antibiotic) was seen with a significant reduction in the expression of both MEK as well as ERK pathways in a dose dependent manner at 6.5 μM & 8 μM concentration in HCT-116 and 5.5 μM & 7 μM concentration in MCF-7 cells. In vivo studies in aggressive orthotopic mouse mammary carcinoma model (4T1) demonstrated about 76% reduction of primary tumor weight and 90.5% reduction in the tumor volume within two weeks. In vivo pharmacokinetics study of setomimycin revealed that it can be rapidly absorbed with an adequate plasma exposure and half-life which can be linked to its in vivo efficacy.

Streptomyces: Still the Biggest Producer of New Natural Secondary Metabolites, a Current Perspective. MICROBIOLOGY RESEARCH 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/microbiolres13030031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
There is a real consensus that new antibiotics are urgently needed and are the best chance for combating antibiotic resistance. The phylum Actinobacteria is one of the main producers of new antibiotics, with a recent paradigm shift whereby rare actinomycetes have been increasingly targeted as a source of new secondary metabolites for the discovery of new antibiotics. However, this review shows that the genus Streptomyces is still the largest current producer of new and innovative secondary metabolites. Between January 2015 and December 2020, a significantly high number of novel Streptomyces spp. have been isolated from different environments, including extreme environments, symbionts, terrestrial soils, sediments and also from marine environments, mainly from marine invertebrates and marine sediments. This review highlights 135 new species of Streptomyces during this 6-year period with 108 new species of Streptomyces from the terrestrial environment and 27 new species from marine sources. A brief summary of the different pre-treatment methods used for the successful isolation of some of the new species of Streptomyces is also discussed, as well as the biological activities of the isolated secondary metabolites. A total of 279 new secondary metabolites have been recorded from 121 species of Streptomyces which exhibit diverse biological activity. The greatest number of new secondary metabolites originated from the terrestrial-sourced Streptomyces spp.

Abstract
Covering: 2020This review covers the literature published in 2020 for marine natural products (MNPs), with 757 citations (747 for the period January to December 2020) referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms. The emphasis is on new compounds (1407 in 420 papers for 2020), together with the relevant biological activities, source organisms and country of origin. Pertinent reviews, biosynthetic studies, first syntheses, and syntheses that led to the revision of structures or stereochemistries, have been included. A meta analysis of bioactivity data relating to new MNPs reported over the last five years is also presented.

Structure-based molecular networking for the target discovery of novel germicidin derivatives from the sponge-associated streptomyces sp. 18A01. J Antibiot (Tokyo) 2021; 74:799-806. [PMID: 34272496 DOI: 10.1038/s41429-021-00447-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2021] [Revised: 06/23/2021] [Accepted: 06/25/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Four new α-pyrone derivatives, named germicidins P-S (1-4) along with nine known analogues (5-13) were discovered from the sponge-associated Streptomyces sp. 18A01 guided by Global Natural Products Social (GNPS) molecular networking, the LC-DAD-MS profile, and hexokinase II (HK2) inhibitory activity. The structures of 1-13 were elucidated by analysis of their HRMS, optical rotation, and NMR spectroscopic data. The absolute configurations of germicidin P (1) and germicidin Q (2) were determined on the basis of comparisons of experimental and theoretically calculated ECD spectra. Bioactivities of the isolated compounds were assayed against human HK2. The bioassay results showed that compounds 1-4 and 11-13 exhibited significant inhibitory activities against HK2, with IC50 values ranging from 5.1 to 11.0 μM. A molecular docking simulation demonstrated that these germicidins were docked in the inner active site tunnel of HK2. Interestingly, the amino residue Arg91 has a better binding affinity and efficacy than the amino residue Asn89 in the process of HK2 binding to the ligands, resulting in better hexokinase inhibitory activity. This result provided a valuable perspective for better understanding their HK2 inhibition activity.
