Abstract
Six new C-20 and one new C-19 quassinoids, named perforalactones F-L (1-7), were isolated from twigs of Harrisonia perforata. Spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic experiments were conducted to identify their structures. Through oxidative degradation of perforalactone B to perforaqussin A, the biogenetic process from C-25 quassinoid to C-20 via Baeyer-Villiger oxidation was proposed. Furthermore, the study evaluated the anti-Parkinson's disease potential of these C-20 quassinoids for the first time on 6-OHDA-induced PC12 cells and a Drosophila Parkinson's disease model of PINK1B9. Perforalactones G and I (2 and 4) showed a 10-15% increase in cell viability of the model cells at 50 μM, while compounds 2 and 4 (100 μM) significantly improved the climbing ability of PINK1B9 flies and increased the dopamine level in the brains and ATP content in the thoraces of the flies.

Abstract
Two new quassinoids (1 and 2) were isolated from the twigs of Harrisonia perforata (Blanco) Merr. Perforalactone E (2) possesses an uncommon hexacyclic 1α,12α:5α,13α-dicyclo-9βH-picrasane skeleton. Its structure was determined based on spectroscopic data and X-ray crystallography. Compounds 1 and 2 could significantly induce lysosomal biogenesis through transcriptional activation of lysosomal genes.

CYP27A1-dependent anti-melanoma activity of limonoid natural products targets mitochondrial metabolism. Cell Chem Biol 2021; 28:1407-1419.e6.

Abstract
Three limonoid natural products with selective anti-proliferative activity against BRAF(V600E) and NRAS(Q61K)-mutation-dependent melanoma cell lines were identified. Differential transcriptome analysis revealed dependency of compound activity on expression of the mitochondrial cytochrome P450 oxidase CYP27A1, a transcriptional target of melanogenesis-associated transcription factor (MITF). We determined that CYP27A1 activity is necessary for the generation of a reactive metabolite that proceeds to inhibit cellular proliferation. A genome-wide small interfering RNA screen in combination with chemical proteomics experiments revealed gene-drug functional epistasis, suggesting that these compounds target mitochondrial biogenesis and inhibit tumor bioenergetics through a covalent mechanism. Our work suggests a strategy for melanoma-specific targeting by exploiting the expression of MITF target gene CYP27A1 and inhibiting mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in BRAF mutant melanomas.

Abstract
"Total synthesis endeavors provide wonderful opportunities to discover and invent new synthetic reactions as a means to advance organic synthesis in general. Such discoveries and inventions can occur when the practitioner faces intransigent problems that cannot be solved by known methods and/or when method improvements are desired in terms of elegance, efficiency, cost-effectiveness, practicality, or environmental friendliness" (K. C. Nicolaou et al. from their review in CCS Chem. 2019, 1, 3-37). To date tens of thousands of bioactive compounds have been isolated from plants, microbes, marine invertebrates, and other sources. These chemical structures have been studied by chemists who scanned the breadth of natural diversity toward drug discovery efforts. Drug-likeness of natural products often possesses common features including molecular complexity, protein-binding ability, structural rigidity, and three-dimensionality. Considering certain biologically important natural products are scarce from natural supply, total synthesis may provide an alternative solution to generating these compounds and their derivatives for the purpose of probing their biological functions. Natural products bearing quaternary carbon stereocenters represent a group of biologically important natural entities that are lead compounds in the development of pharmacological agents and biological probes. However, the stereocontrolled introduction of quaternary carbons, with vicinal patterns that substantially expand the complexity of molecular architectures and chemical space in particular, presents distinct challenges because of the high steric repulsion between substituents. Though remarkable advance has been seen for quaternary carbon stereocenter generation, the process remains a daunting challenge given that the formation of highly congested stereocenters increases the difficulty in achieving orbital overlap.In the past two decades, our group has initiated a program to develop synthetic strategies and methods with the aim of advancing the frontiers of the total syntheses of biologically important complex natural products bearing all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers. Typical endeavors have involved the use of a Pauson-Khand (PK) reaction as a key step in constructing core structures with all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center(s), with the aid of well-orchestrated thiourea-Co- and thiourea-Pd-catalyzed PK reactions. These methodological advances have enabled us to achieve total syntheses of a series of topologically complex natural products with diverse structural features. These methods will enable the assembly of molecules with improved biological functions and provide tool compounds for elucidation of mechanism of action or identification of potential cellular targets.

Their structures were established based on analyses of spectroscopic data. All compounds were tested for their inhibitory activities against the 11β-HSD1 enzyme. Hederagenin (13) exhibited moderate inhibitory effect for mouse 11β-HSD1 with an IC50 value of 0.16±0.04 μM.

Abstract
Xiaojiang Hao, who obtained Master Degree from Kunming Institute of Botany (KIB), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) in 1985, and Doctor in Pharmacy degree in Pharmacy from Institute for Chemical Research, Kyoto University, in 1990, was born in Chongqing in July, 1951. In 1991, he returned to KIB, CAS, as an Associate professor and served as the chair of the Department of Phytochemistry. In 1994, he was promoted to a full professor at the current institute. He served as the Deputy Director of KIB and the Director of Open Laboratory of Phytochemistry from 1995 to 1997, and the Director of KIB from 1997 to 2005. Professor Hao has published more than 450 peer-reviewed SCI papers, which have been cited over 6000 times. He has obtained one PCT patent and 23 patents in China. Due to his tremendous efforts, one candidate drug, phenchlobenpyrrone, has entered the Phase II clinical trail for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Moreover, he won the First Prize of Natural Sciences in Yunnan Province for three times, and Ho Leung Ho Lee Fund Science and Technology Innovation Award in 2017.

Two novel diterpenoid heterodimers, Bisebracteolasins A and B, from Euphorbia ebracteolata Hayata, and the cancer chemotherapeutic potential of Bisebracteolasin A. Sci Rep 2017; 7:14507. [PMID: 29109538 PMCID: PMC5674023 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-14637-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2017] [Accepted: 10/11/2017] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Rare ent-abietane-rosane diterpenoid heterodimers, Bisebracteolasins A and B (1 and 2, respectively), were isolated from the roots of Euphorbia ebracteolata Hayata. Their structures and absolute configurations were elucidated from spectroscopic data and X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited moderate cytotoxic effects against five cancer cell lines. Compound 1 showed more effective antiproliferative activities against human tumour cells, HL-60 and SMMC-7721, with IC50 values of 2.61 and 4.08 μM, respectively, than 2. Both compounds 1 and 2 inhibit the colorectal cancer stem cell line P6C with IC50 values of 16.48 and 34.76 μM, respectively. Moreover, preliminary biological tests showed compound 1 exhibited inhibitory activity towards tumoursphere formation and migration of the P6C cell line. Overall, we identified two novel diterpenoid heterodimers, and Bisebracteolasin A exhibits therapeutic potential in impeding tumour growth and metastatic ability of cancer stem cells.
