Abstract
BACKGROUND Protoapigenone (PA), a natural flavonoid possessing an unusual p-quinol moiety on its B ring, is a prospective novel lead compound against cancer currently in development, together with WYC0209, a potent synthetic PA analog. Structure activity relationships (SAR) concerning different 1'-O-alkyl side-chains were also studied on two sets of derivatives. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen 1'-O-alkyl protoflavone derivatives were synthesized from genkwanin or 4'-hydroxy-6-methylflavone, thirteen of which are new compounds. All compounds were tested for their cytotoxic effect on four human cancer cell lines, such as HepG2 and Hep3B (hepatic), A549 (lung) and MDA-MB-231 (breast) cell lines, with doxorubicin as a positive control. All compounds, as well as PA, WYC0209 and fourteen of their previously reported analogs were also tested on a multidrug-resistant (MDR) sub-cell line of L5178 mouse T-cell lymphoma and on its parental counterpart (PAR). RESULTS In general, derivatives bearing a free hydroxyl group at C-1' exerted the strongest activities, while C-1'-substituted compounds were found to be much weaker. Derivatives of 6-methylflavone exhibited mild, but statistically significant selectivity towards the MDR cell line. CONCLUSION The results are in agreement with our previous findings for fundamental SAR of protoflavones. 6-Methylated protoflavones may serve as valuable leads for developing selective compounds against MDR cancer. Identical activity of other derivatives on the PAR and MDR cell lines suggests that cancer cells cannot exhibit resistance to protoflavones by ABCB1 efflux pump overexpression.

Abstract
Bullatacin, isolated from the fruit of Annona atemoya, is one of the most potentially effective antitumor annonaceous acetogenins. Bullatacin was studied here for its ability to inhibit the proliferation of 2.2.15 cells, hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA transfected human hepatocarcinoma cell line. It was found that bullatacin induced cytotoxicity of 2.2.15 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Fifty percent effective dose (ED50) on day 1 of exposure to bullatacin were 7.8 +/- 2.5 nM for 2.2.15 cells. [3H]-Thymidine incorporation assays showed almost the same results. Bullatacin-treatment also reduced concentrations of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in the cultured medium released from 2.2.15 cells, coincident with the decrease in the cell proliferation. Analysis of mophological changes of bullatacin-treated 2.2.15 by inverted phase-contrast microscope and eletron microscopy revealed a possible model of action for bullatacin to inhibit proliferation of 2.2.15 cells by inducing apoptosis. Most of the bullatacin-induced cell death was found to be due to apoptosis, as determined by double staining with fluorescein-isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled annexin V and propidium iodide (PI).

Using a bioassay-directed fractionation method, three new compounds, including an aporphine alkaloid, cassyformine (4); an oxoaporphine alkaloid, filiformine (8), and a lignan, (+)-diasyringaresinol (10), along with 14 known compounds, were further isolated and characterized from the MeOH extract of the fresh herbs of Cassytha filiformis. Among the isolates of this plant, cathafiline (1), cathaformine (2), actinodaphnine (3), N-methylactinodaphnine (5), predicentrine (6), and ocoteine (7) exhibited significant antiplatelet aggregation activity.

Abstract
Phytochemical analysis of the fruits of Annona glabra yielded two new kaurane diterpenoids, annoglabasin A (methyl-16 beta-acetoxy-19-al-ent-kauran-17-oate)(1) and annoglabasin B (16 alpha-hydro-19-acetoxy-ent-kauran-17-oic acid)(2), along with 11 known kaurane derivatives (3-13). The structures of the new compounds were established by spectral and chemical evidence. Among these, methyl-16 alpha-hydro-19-al-ent-kauran-17-oate (11) exhibited mild activity against HIV replication in H9 lymphocyte cells, and 16 alpha-17-dihydroxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid (4) showed significant inhibition of HIV-reverse transcriptase.

Abstract
Chromatography of an ethyl acetate extract of seeds of Annona reticulata led to the isolation of a new cytotoxic gamma-lactone acetogenin, cis-/trans-isomurisolenin, along with six known cytotoxic acetogenins, annoreticuin, annoreticuin-9-one, bullatacin, squamocin, cis-/trans-bullatacinone and cis-/trans-murisolinone. Structures of these compounds were established by means of mass and related spectral experiments. Some of the compounds isolated, showed potent cytotoxicities against Hep. 2,2,15, Hep. G2, KB and CCM2, four cancer cell-lines.

Abstract
Phytochemical analysis of the fruits of Annona squamosa yielded 12 known kaurane derivatives (1-11, 13) and two new kaurane diterpenoids, which have been named annosquamosin A (16 beta-hydroxy-17-acetoxy-ent-kauran-19-al) (12) and annosquamosin B (19-nor-ent-kaurane-4 alpha,16 beta,-17-triol) (14). The structures of the new compounds were established by spectral analyses and chemical evidence. Among these 14 compounds, 16 beta, 17-dihydroxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid (2) showed significant activity against HIV replication in H9 lymphocyte cells with an EC50 value of 0.8 microgram/mL (therapeutic index > 5).

Abstract
Using cytotoxicity as a guide to fractionation, one novel acetogenin, annoreticuin-9-one [3], and four known cytotoxic acetogenins, squamone [4], solamin [5], annomonicin [6] and rolliniastatin 2 [7], were isolated from active extracts of the leaves of the Formosan plant Annona reticulata. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of uv, ir, 1H- and 13C-nmr, and ms data of the natural compounds and their derivatives.
