RESUMO

Tryptanthrin (TRYP) is the main active ingredient in Indigo Naturalis. Studies have shown that TRYP had excellent anti-inflammatory activity, but its specific mechanism has been unclear. In this work, the differentially expressed proteins resulting from TRYP intervention in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells were obtained based on tandem mass tag proteomics technology. The anti-inflammatory mechanism of TRYP was further validated by a combination of experiments using the LPS-induced RAW264.7 cell model in vitro and the DSS-induced UC mouse model (free drinking 2.5% DSS) in vivo. The results demonstrated that TRYP could inhibit levels of NO, IL-6, and TNF-α in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. Twelve differential proteins were screened out. And the results indicated that TRYP could inhibit upregulated levels of gp91phox, p22phox, FcεRIγ, IKKα/ß, and p-IκBα and reduce ROS levels in vitro. Besides, after TRYP treatment, the health conditions of colitis mice were all improved. Furthermore, TRYP inhibited the activation of JAK/STAT3, nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65, and promoted the nuclear expression of Nrf2 in vitro and in vivo. This work preliminarily indicated that TRYP might suppress the TLR4/MyD88/ROS/NF-κB and JAK/STAT3 signaling pathways to exert anti-inflammatory effects. Additionally, TRYP could achieve antioxidant effects by regulating the Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway.

RESUMO

Acanthopanacis Cortex (A.-C) with a long history of more than1000 years, has been used to treat rheumatism effectively. Nineteen diterpenoids have been isolated from A.-C, including six new compounds (1-6). Among them, compounds 7, 9-11, 13, and 17 were discovered from A.-C for the first time. The structures of 1-6 were determined by analyzing their NMR data and comparing their experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism spectra. Moreover, the single-crystal X-ray diffraction data of 1, 2, 8, and 14 were provided. The anti-inflammatory activity of 1-5 and 7-18 on neutrophil elastase, cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) has been studied in vitro, and the results showed that 15 had almost no inhibitory effects on COX-1 at 200 µM but a significant activity against COX-2 with an IC50 of 0.73 ± 0.006 µΜ. It indicated that compound 15 can provide valuable information for the design of selective COX-2 inhibitors.

RESUMO

Copper ions (Cu2+) and sulfide (S2-) play essential roles in many physiologies and pathologic processes. Herein, a new "on-off-on" tryptanthrin-based probe TR-1 (TR-1) has been designed and synthesized in a facile and economical way. TR-1 exhibited highly selective and sensitive response to Cu2+ without any interference over 14 competitive metal ions and the detection limit downs to 24 nM, which is far below the Chinese standard of fishery water quality (157 nM). The 'in situ' prepared complex TR-1 + Cu2+ could also be applied to detect S2- with the detection limit of 62 nM. Further, TR-1 was potentially applied for the analysis of copper ions in water samples.

RESUMO

The synthesis of compounds based on fragments derived from natural products (NPs) serves as a source of inspiration for the design of pseudo-natural products (PNPs), to identify bioactive molecules that exhibit similar characteristics to NPs. These novel molecular scaffolds exhibit previously unexplored biological activities as well. This study reports the development and synthesis of a novel pentacyclic ring system, the indole-pyrimidine-quinoline (IPQ) scaffold. The design of this scaffold was based on the structural characteristics of four natural products, namely tryptanthrin, luotonin A, rutaecarpine, and camptothecin. Several successive steps accomplished the effective synthesis of the IPQ scaffold. The constituent components of the pentacycle, containing the indole, quinazolinone, pyrimidone, and quinoline units, possess significant biological significance. Compound 1a demonstrated noteworthy anti-tumor activity efficacy against A549 cell lines among the tested compounds. The compound 1a was observed to elicit cell cycle arrest in both the G2/M and S phases, as well as trigger apoptosis in A549 cells. These effects were attributed to its ability to modulate the activation of mitochondrial-related mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways.

RESUMO

Ulcerative colitis (UC), often known as UC, is an inflammatory disease of the intestines that has frequent and long-lasting flare-ups. It is unknown precisely how the traditional Chinese drug Indigo Naturalis (IN) heals inflammatory bowel disease, despite its long-standing use in China and Japan. Finding new metabolite biomarkers linked to UC could improve our understanding of the disease, speed up the diagnostic process, and provide insight into how certain drugs work to treat the condition. Our work is designed to use a metabolomic method to analyze potential alterations in endogenous substances and their impact on metabolic pathways in a mouse model of UC. To determine which biomarkers and metabolisms are more frequently connected with IN's effects on UC, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis of the serum metabolomics of UC mice and normal mice was performed. The outcomes demonstrated that IN boosted the health of UC mice and reduced the severity of their metabolic dysfunction. In the UC model, it was also found that IN changed the way 17 biomarkers and 3 metabolisms functioned.

RESUMO

Twenty-four monoterpenoids, including three previously undescribed compounds (1-3), were isolated from the root bark of Acanthopanax gracilistylus W. W. Smith (Acanthopanacis Cortex). Their structures were unambiguously established based on spectroscopic analysis (HR-ESIMS, IR, 1D, and 2D NMR), and the absolute configurations of 1-3 were elucidated by comparing their experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism spectra. In addition, the structure of 8 was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The inhibitory activities of 1-24 against neutrophil elastase, 5-lipoxygenase, and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were studied in vitro for the first time, and the results showed that compound 24 possessed a significant inhibitory effect on COX-2 with an IC50 value of 1.53 ± 0.10 µΜ. This research first reported the presence of monoterpenoids in Acanthopanacis Cortex, including one monoterpenoid 2 with an unusual 4/5 bicyclic lactone system, and compounds 4 and 5 have never been reported in nature.

RESUMO

This study aims to explore the effect of tryptanthrin on potential metabolic biomarkers in the serum of mice with ulcerative colitis(UC) induced by dextran sulfate sodium(DSS) based on liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS) and predict the related metabolic pathways. C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned into a tryptanthrin group, a sulfasalazine group, a control group, and a model group. The mouse model of UC was established by free drinking of 3% DSS solution for 11 days, and corresponding drugs were adminsitrated at the same time. The signs of mice were observed and the disease activity index(DAI) score was recorded from the first day. Colon tissue samples were collected after the experiment and observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining. The levels of interleukin-4(IL-4), interleukin-10(IL-10), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-6(IL-6), and interleukin-8(IL-8) in the serum were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The serum samples were collected from 6 mice in each group for widely targeted metabolomics. The metabolic pathways were enriched by MetaboAnalyst 5.0. The results showed that compared with the model group, tryptanthrin treatment decreased the DAI score(P<0.05), alleviated the injury of the colon tissue and the infiltration of inflammatory cells, lowered the levels of proinflammatory cytokines, and elevated the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines in the serum. The metabolomic analysis revealed 28 differential metabolites which were involved in 3 metabolic pathways including purine metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism, and tryptophan metabolism. Tryptanthrin may restore the metabolism of the mice with UC induced by DSS to the normal level by regulating the purine metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism, and tryptophan metabolism. This study employed metabolomics to analyze the mechanism of tryptanthrin in the treatment of UC, providing an experimental basis for the utilization and development of tryptanthrin.

RESUMO

Here, we describe the rhodium-catalyzed bridged (3+2) cycloaddition cascade reactions of N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles, which allowed the efficient diastereoselective construction of various functionalized and synthetically challenging bridged ring systems. This simple, direct transformation had a broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance. The highly strained polycyclic bicyclo[2.2.2]octa[b]indole core of fruticosine was synthesized efficiently using this methodology.

RESUMO

We herein describe a new approach for the efficient and asymmetric construction of the tricyclic core of eurifoloid A, which possesses a unique and highly strained bicyclo[4.4.1] ring system. A rhodium-catalyzed intramolecular [3 + 2] dipolar cycloaddition was developed to install synthetically challenging bridged bicyclo[4.3.1] ring systems. The reported chemistry shows the feasibility of constructing the eurifoloid A framework using a diastereoselective intramolecular [3 + 2] cycloaddition and a ring enlargement.

RESUMO

Bridged medium-sized bicyclo[m.n.2] ring systems are common in natural products and potent pharmaceuticals, and pose a great synthetic challenge. Chemistry for making bicyclo[m.n.2] ring systems remains underdeveloped. Currently, there are no general reactions available for the single-step synthesis of various bridged bicyclo[m.n.2] ring systems from acyclic precursors. Here, we report an unusual type II intramolecular (3+2) dipolar cycloaddition strategy for the syntheses of various bridged bicyclo[m.n.2] ring systems. This rhodium-catalysed cascade reaction provides a relatively general strategy for the direct and efficient regioselective and diastereoselective synthesis of highly functionalized and synthetically challenging bridged medium-sized polycyclic systems. Asymmetric total synthesis of nakafuran-8 was accomplished using this method as a key step. Quantum mechanical calculations demonstrate the mechanism of this transformation and the origins of its multiple selectivities. This reaction will inspire the design of the strategies to make complex bioactive molecules with bridged medium-sized polycyclic systems.

RESUMO

Herein, we describe a concise catalytic approach to the first asymmetric total syntheses of myrtucommuacetalone, myrtucommuacetalone B, and callistrilones A, C, D and E. The syntheses proceed in only 5-7 steps from the readily available compound 11, without the need for protecting groups. Key features of the syntheses include a unique organocatalytic asymmetric Friedel-Crafts-type Michael addition with high enantioselectivity and a broad substrate scope, a novel Michael-ketalization-annulation cascade reaction, and an oxidative [3 + 2] cycloaddition. Furthermore, the new compound 7 exhibited potent antibacterial activities against several multidrug-resistant strains (MRSA, VISA and VRE), and showed greater potency than vancomycin.

RESUMO

The simple method of the syntheses of the styryl quinoline derivatives was developed. The intermediate of 2-methylquinoline was synthesized from 10 mmol aniline and 20 mmol (E)-2-Butenal dissolved in 8 mL methylbenzene refluxing at 100 ℃ for 3 hours with 10 mL 6 M hydrochloric acid as catalyst. Eight derivatives were obtained in 15 mL glacial acetic acid using 2-methylquinoline (10 mmol) and aromatic aldehyde (12 mmol) as materials refluxing for 8 hours with a yield of 71%~88%. The method is simple, high yield, easy purification and environment friendly. The structures of all derivatives were confirmed with MS, 1HNMR and IR. The vicinal coupling constant of olefinic carbon hydrogen in 1HNMR is 12~18 Hz, and moderate strength absorption peaks appeared at 960~980 cm-1 in IR indicate that carbon-carbon double bond is transconfiguration. Maximum absorption wavelengths of eight products in CH3OH, DMSO, THF and DMF were measured, and emission wavelengths were measured using maximum absorption wavelengths as excitation wavelengths. It turned out that maximum absorption wavelengths among different solvents were 325~376 nm, and emission wavelengths were 367~477 nm. The molar extinction coefficients were within the range of 1.738×104~4.578×104 L·mol-1·cm-1. The maximum absorption wavelengths and emission wavelengths of styryl quinoline derivatives with methoxyl, hydroxyl and benzyl group are greater than others. Among four solvents, the maximum absorption wavelengths almost unchanged, however, the emission wavelengths varies significantly in the following order DMSO>DMF>CH3OH>THF, which indicates the Stokes shift of one product at aprotic solvent is greater than protic solvent. 2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)styryl quinolone (Product Ⅱ) which shows the best fluorescence property and the highest Stokes shift value worth further studying.
