Abstract
Garcinia nervosa is an abundant source of bioactive phytochemicals. The present paper deals with the isolation of a novel isoflavone 5,7-dihydroxy-3-(3'-hydroxy-4',5'-dimethoxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-4H-chromen-4-one (1) along with a known compound DL-Allantoin (2) from the ethanolic extract of the leaves of Garcinia nervosa (Family: Guttiferae). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of chemical and physical evidences viz. elemental analysis, UV, FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectral analysis. Single-crystal X-ray analysis was further used for the authentication of structure of both compounds (1 and 2). Interaction studies of compound (1) and (2) with ctDNA were studied by UV-Visible spectroscopy, fluorescence, KI quenching studies, competitive displacement assay and circular dichroism studies, which showed groove binding interaction (non-intercalation) of both the compounds 1 and 2 with ctDNA. However, compound 1 (K=3.9×104M-1) shows higher binding affinity to the ctDNA than compound 2 (K=1.44×104M-1). The molecular modeling results also illustrated that compound 1 strongly binds to groove of DNA by relative binding energy of docked structure -6.82kcal/mol. In addition the antiproliferative activity also showed high potential of compound 1 against MCF-7 and MDA-MB 231 cell line with IC50 value 8.44±3.5μM and 6.94±2.6μM, respectively.
