Cui T, Li BY, Liu F, Xiong L. Research Progress on Sesquiterpenoids of Curcumae Rhizoma and Their Pharmacological Effects. Biomolecules 2024; 14:387. [PMID: 38672405 PMCID: PMC11048675 DOI: 10.3390/biom14040387] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Curcumae Rhizoma, a traditional Chinese medicine with a wide range of pharmacological activities, is obtained from the dried rhizomes of Curcuma phaeocaulis VaL., Curcuma kwangsiensis S. G. Lee et C. F. Liang, and Curcuma wenyujin Y. H. Chen et C. Ling. Sesquiterpenoids and curcuminoids are found to be the main constituents of Curcumae Rhizoma. Sesquiterpenoids are composed of three isoprene units and are susceptible to complex transformations, such as cyclization, rearrangement, and oxidation. They are the most structurally diverse class of plant-based natural products with a wide range of biological activities and are widely found in nature. In recent years, scholars have conducted abundant studies on the structures and pharmacological properties of components of Curcumae Rhizoma. This article elucidates the chemical structures, medicinal properties, and biological properties of the sesquiterpenoids (a total of 274 compounds) isolated from Curcumae Rhizoma. We summarized extraction and isolation methods for sesquiterpenoids, established a chemical component library of sesquiterpenoids in Curcumae Rhizoma, and analyzed structural variances among sesquiterpenoids sourced from Curcumae Rhizoma of diverse botanical origins. Furthermore, our investigation reveals a diverse array of sesquiterpenoid types, encompassing guaiane-type, germacrane-type, eudesmane-type, elemane-type, cadinane-type, carane-type, bisabolane-type, humulane-type, and other types, emphasizing the relationship between structural diversity and activity. We hope to provide a valuable reference for further research and exploitation and pave the way for the development of new drugs derived from medicinal plants.

Analysis on internal mechanism of zedoary turmeric in treatment of liver cancer based on pharmacodynamic substances and pharmacodynamic groups. CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINES 2022; 14:479-493. [PMID: 36405057 PMCID: PMC9669400 DOI: 10.1016/j.chmed.2022.06.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2021] [Revised: 03/04/2022] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Zedoary tumeric (Curcumae Rhizoma, Ezhu in Chinese) has a long history of application and has great potential in the treatment of liver cancer. The antiliver cancer effect of zedoary tumeric depends on the combined action of multiple pharmacodynamic substances. In order to clarify the specific mechanism of zedoary tumeric against liver cancer, this paper first analyzes the mechanism of its single pharmacodynamic substance against liver cancer, and then verifies the joint anti liver cancer mechanism of its “pharmacodynamic group”. By searching the research on the antihepatoma effect of active components of zedoary tumeric in recent years, we found that pharmacodynamic substances, including curcumol, zedoarondiol, curcumenol, curzerenone, curdione, curcumin, germacrone, β-elemene, can act on multi-target and multi-channel to play an antihepatoma role. For example, curcumin can regulate miR, GLO1, CD133, VEGF, YAP, LIN28B, GPR81, HCAR-1, P53 and PI3K/Akt/mTOR, HSP70/TLR4 and NF-κB. Wnt/TGF/EMT, Nrf2/Keap1, JAK/STAT and other pathways play an antihepatoma role. Network pharmacological analysis showed that the core targets of the “pharmacodynamic group” for anti-life cancer are AKT1, EGFR, MAPK8, etc, and the core pathways are neuroactive live receiver interaction, nitrogen metabolism, HIF-1 signaling pathway, etc. At the same time, by comparing and analyzing the relationship between the specific mechanisms of pharmacodynamic substance and “pharmacodynamic group”, it is found that they have great reference significance in target, pathway, biological function, determination of core pharmacodynamic components, formation of core target protein interaction, in-depth research of single pharmacodynamic substance, increasing curative effect and so on. By analyzing the internal mechanism of zedoary tumeric pharmacodynamic substance and “pharmacodynamic group” in the treatment of liver cancer, this paper intends to provide some ideas and references for the deeper pharmacological research of zedoary tumeric and the relationship between pharmacodynamic substance and “pharmacodynamic group”.

Abstract
![]()
The therapeutic properties of Curcuma (ginger
and turmeric’s family) have long been known in traditional
medicine. However, only recently have guaiane-type sesquiterpenes
extracted from Curcuma phaeocaulis been
submitted to biological testing, and their enhanced bioactivity was
highlighted. Among these compounds, phaeocaulisin A has shown remarkable
anti-inflammatory and anticancer activity, which appears to be tied
to the unique bridged acetal moiety embedded in its tetracyclic framework.
Prompted by the promising biological profile of phaeocaulisin A and
by the absence of a synthetic route for its provision, we have implemented
the first enantioselective total synthesis of phaeocaulisin A in 17
steps with 2% overall yield. Our route design builds on the identification
of an enantioenriched lactone intermediate, tailored with both a ketone
moiety and a conjugated alkene system. Taking advantage of the umpolung
carbonyl-olefin coupling reactivity enabled by the archetypal single-electron
transfer (SET) reductant samarium diiodide (SmI2), the
lactone intermediate was submitted to two sequential SmI2-mediated cyclizations to stereoselectively construct the polycyclic
core of the natural product. Crucially, by exploiting the innate inner-sphere
nature of carbonyl reduction using SmI2, we have used a
steric blocking strategy to render sites SET-unreceptive and thus
achieve chemoselective reduction in a complex substrate. Our asymmetric
route enabled elucidation of the naturally occurring isomer of phaeocaulisin
A and provides a synthetic platform to access other guaiane-type sesquiterpenes
from C. phaeocaulis—as well
as their synthetic derivatives—for medicinal chemistry and
drug design.

Abstract
Seven 1,10-secoguaianolides 1⁻7, including a new one (compound 1), were isolated from Artemisia austro-yunnanensis and identified by HRESIMS and other spectroscopic methods. Their anti-inflammatory effects were evaluated by the model of LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells in vitro. Bioassay results showed that six of them (1⁻4, 6 and 7), with the exception of 5, produce some cytotoxicity on RAW264.7 cells at its high dosage, can significantly decrease the release of NO, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and PGE2 in a dose dependent manner, and down-regulate the expression of proteins iNOS and COX-2. The mechanism study indicated they regulated the NF-κB dependent transcriptional activity through decreasing the phosphorylation of NF-κB. Further, the relationship between their structures and cytokines to anti-inflammatory were studied by PCA and discussed.

Abstract
Objective: The effects of zedoary guaiane-type sesquiterpenes (ZGS)-based eluting stent (ZES) in accelerating reendothelialization and inhibiting neointimal hyperplasia were examined in a porcine coronary artery model. Methods: The ZES was prepared by polymer-free 316L stainless metal stents. Sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) and bare metal stents (BMS) with identical platforms were used as controls. Stents with 15 mm in length and 2.0 to 3.5 mm in diameter were implanted in porcine coronary arteries. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and histopathology were performed to assess the reendothelialization and neointimal hyperplasia. The 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazoliumbromide assay and flow cytometry were used to assess the influence of ZGS on human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). Results: At 7 days, SEM showed that percentage of endothelial coverage area was 94.04% ± 5.01% for ZES, 47.59% ± 19.91% for SES ( P < .01 for ZES vs SES), and 59.58% ± 19.61% for BMS ( P < .05 for ZES vs BMS). At 28 days, the percentage of coverage area was 98.51% ± 1.86% for ZES, 86.18% ± 8.16% for SES ( P < .05 for ZES vs SES), and 94.26% ± 5.58% for BMS. Neointimal area and stenosis were significantly lower in ZES (1.07 ± 0.48 mm2, 27.66% ± 12.20%) compared to BMS (1.73 ± 0.69 mm2, 44.08% ± 15.03%, both P < .01, respectively), with no difference in SES (0.94 ± 0.12 mm2, 28.87% ± 6.00%, both P > .05, respectively). The ZGS also promoted HUVECs viability and improved HUVECs proliferation compared to sirolimus. Conclusion: The ZES accelerated reendothelialization and suppressed neointimal hyperplasia in a porcine coronary artery model, with beneficial effects on HUVECs.

Abstract
Curcumae Rhizoma, known as Ezhu (Chinese: ), and Curcumae Radix, known as Yujin (Chinese: ), are different plant parts coming from three same species according to China Pharmacopoeia. Actually, they are used in different ways in TCM clinical treatment. Curcumae Rhizoma is mainly used as antitumor drug, while Curcumae Radix has been used as antidepressant and cholagogue. Curcumae Rhizoma and Curcumae Radix are confused in variety and source, even in clinical trials by some nonprofessional workers. So it is important for us to make them clear. This review is aimed at summarizing the ethnopharmacology, phytochemical, and pharmacological differences between Curcumae Radix and Curcumae Rhizoma by SciFinder, CNKI, and so on, to use them exactly and clearly. Further studies on Curcumae Rhizoma and Curcumae Radix can lead to the development of new drugs and therapeutics for various diseases on the basis of the TCM theory.

Abstract
Curcuma longa L., belonging to the Zingiberaceae family, is a perennial herb and has been used as a spice and a pigment in the food industry. In the ongoing search for inhibitory reagents of NO production and survey of the chemical composition of natural vegetable foods, the chemical constituents of C. longa used as spice were investigated. This investigation resulted in the isolation of 2 new terpenoids and 14 known analogues. Their structures were established on the basis of the extensive analyses of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data, and the absolute configurations of 1-4 were elucidated by comparison of the calculated and experimental ECD spectra. Among them, compound 1 is a rare norditerpene with an ent-labdane skeleton, and 2 is a skeletally novel sesquiterpene having an eight-membered ring. All of the compounds were found to possess NO inhibitory activities in murine microglial BV-2 cells. The discovery of two new compounds in this chemical investigation further disclosed the chemical composition of C. longa used a food spice, and the bioassay implied that the natural food spice C. longa, containing terpenoids with NO inhibitory activities, may be potentially promotive to human health.

Abstract
Three new guaiane-type sesquiterpenes named phaeocaulisins K-M (1-3), and one germacrane-type sesquiterpenoid with new ring system of 1,5- and 1,8-ether groups named phagermadiol (4), were isolated from rhizomes of Curcuma phaeocaulis. Their structures were established based on extensive spectroscopic analysis. Compound 1, the first example of norsesquiterpene with tropone backbone, and compound 3 with a novel 1,2-dioxolane sesquiterpene alcohol were isolated from the genus Curcuma. All of the isolated compounds were tested for inhibitory activity against lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW 264.7 macrophages. Compound 3 inhibited NO production with IC50 value of 6.05 ± 0.43 μM. The plausible biosynthetic pathway for compounds 3 and 4 in C. phaeocaulis was also discussed.

Abstract
Biocatalysis of curcumenol (1) was performed by Mucor polymorphosporus AS 3.3443. Six metabolites including five new compounds were obtained, and their structures were elucidated as 10β-hydroxy-9,10-dihydrocurcumenol (2), 2β-hydroxycurcumenol (3), 15-hydroxycurcumenol (4), 12-hydroxycurcumenol (5), 1-hydroxy-4αH-guai-1,6,9-triene-2,8-dione (6), and 5-hydroxycarbonyl-1-oxo-3,7-dimethylindane (7) by spectroscopic analysis. M. polymorphosporus catalyzed unusual degradation and rearrangement reactions to generate a ring-contracted metabolite (7) of curcumenol (1). Curcumenol (1) and metabolites 4-7 exhibited inhibitory activities against lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 macrophages, with 7 exhibiting more potent activity than curcumenol.

Abstract
Four new cadinane-type sesquiterpenes named phacadinanes A-D (1-4) were isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma phaeocaulis. Their structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR, as well as accurate mass measurements. Compound 4 was the first example of a rare 4,5-seco-cadinane sesquiterpene isolated from the Zingiberaceae family. Furthermore, inhibitory effects of the isolated compounds on nitric oxide production in LPS-activated macrophages were evaluated. Compounds 1 and 2 showed strong inhibitory activities on NO production with IC50 values of 3.88±0.58 and 2.25±0.71 μM, respectively. A possible biogenetic pathway for 4,5-seco-cadinane sesquiterpene (4) was postulated.

Abstract
Eleven new sesquiterpenoids, wenyujinins A-K (1-11), and a new monoterpenoid, wenyujinin L (12), were isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma wenyujin. Their structures and relative configurations were elucidated using 1D and 2D NMR, X-ray crystallographic analysis, and HRESIMS data. The absolute configurations of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, and 10 were determined by comparison of the experimental and calculated ECD spectra. The absolute configuration of 5 was determined from the ECD data of the [Rh2(OCOCF3)4] complex, whereas those of 7 and 12 were determined from the ECD spectra of the compounds alone. Compounds 7 and 7a strongly inhibited the induction of NO production by LPS, with IC50 values of 7.6 and 8.5 μM, respectively. Compounds 6 and 10 moderately inhibited NO production with IC50 values of 47.7 and 48.6 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Ten new guaiane-type sesquiterpenes (1-10), phaeocaulisins A-J, and 18 known guaiane derivatives were isolated from rhizomes of Curcuma phaeocaulis. Their structures were established on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses, X-ray crystallographic analysis, and comparison with literature data. Compound 10 is the first example of a norsesquiterpene with this unusual skeleton isolated from the genus Curcuma. All of the isolated compounds were tested for inhibitory activity against LPS-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 macrophages. Compounds 1, 2, 20, and 22-24 inhibited nitric oxide production with IC50 values less than 2 μM. Preliminary structure-activity relationships for these compounds are discussed.

Abstract
Five sesquiterpenoids, 1α,8α-epidioxy-4α-hydroxy- 5αH-guai-7(11),9-dien- 12,8-olide. (1), 8,9-seco-4β-hydroxy-1α,5βH-7(11)-guaen-8,10-olide (2), 8α-hydroxy-1α, 4β,7βH-guai-10(15)-en- 5β,8β-endoxide(3), 7β,8α-dihydroxy-1α,4αH-guai-10(15)-en-5β,8β-endoxide(4) and 7-hydroxy-5(10),6,8-cadinatriene-4-one(5), together with seven known analogs were isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma wenyujin. Their structures and relative configurations were determined on the basis of spectroscopic methods including 2D NMR techniques, and the structures of 1 and 2 were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiment. Compounds 1-10 and 12 showed significant in vitro antiviral activity against the influenza virus A with IC₅₀ values ranged from 6.80 to 39.97 μM, and SI values ranged from 6.35 to 37.25.

Abstract
Twelve new diarylheptanoids and six known compounds were isolated from rhizomes of Curcuma kwangsiensis. Structures of the new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic and chemical methods as (3S)- and (3R)-1,7-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-(6E)-6-hepten-3-ol (1a and 1b), (3S)- and (3R)-1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-7-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-(6E)-6-hepten-3-ol (2a and 2b), (3S)- and (3R)-1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-7-(4-hydroxyphenyl)heptan-3-ol (3a and 3b), (3R)-1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-7-phenyl-(6E)-6-hepten-3-ol (4b), (3S)- and (3R)-3-acetoxy-1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-7-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-(6E)-6-heptene (5a and 5b), (3S)- and (3R)-3-acetoxy-1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-7-(4-hydroxyphenyl)heptanes (6a and 6b), and (E)-1,7-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-6-hepten-3-one (7). The absolute configurations were determined using the modified Mosher's method. Separation of the enantiomeric mixtures (1a and 1b, 2a and 2b, 3a and 3b, 4a and 4b, 5a and 5b, 6a and 6b) was achieved on a chiral column using acetonitrile-water mixtures as eluents. The S enantiomers exhibited negative specific optical rotations in MeOH, and the R enantiomers were positive. Inhibitory effects of the compounds on nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccaride-activated macrophages were evaluated.
