RESUMO

Ornithogalum thyrsoides Jacq belongs to the Asparagaceae family and is cultivated for ornamental purposes. The authors have previously reported several cholestane- and spirostan-type steroidal glycosides from O. thyrsoides. Conventional TLC analysis of the methanolic bulb extract of O. thyrsoides suggested the presence of unprecedented compounds; therefore, a detailed phytochemical investigation of the extract was performed and 35 steroidal glycosides (1-35), including 21 previously undescribed ones (1-21) were collected. The structures of 1-21 were determined mainly by analyses of their 1H and 13C NMR spectra with the aid of two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. The isolated compounds were classified into three distinct groups: furostan-type (1, 2, 8-12, and 22), spirostan-type (3-7 and 23-26), and cholestane-type (13-21 and 27-35). Although the C/D-ring junction of the steroidal skeleton is typically trans-oriented, except for some cardiotonic and pregnane-type steroidal derivatives, 7 possess a cis C/D-ring junction. This is the first reported instance of such a configuration in spirostan-type steroidal derivatives, marking it as a finding of significant interest. Compounds 1-35 were evaluated for cytotoxicity against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells and SBC-3 human small-cell lung cancer cells. Compounds 3-6, 9, 17-21, 23-25, and 30-35 demonstrated cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 values ranging from 0.000086 to 18 µM and from 0.00014 to 37 µM toward HL-60 and SBC-3 cells, respectively. Compound 19, which is obtained in a good yield and shows relatively potent cytotoxicity among the undescribed compounds, induces apoptosis in HL-60 cells, accompanied by arresting the cell cycle of HL-60 cells at the G2/M phase. In contrast, 19 causes oxidative stress-associated necrosis in SBC-3 cells. The cytotoxic mechanism of 19 is different between HL-60 and SBC-3 cells.

RESUMO

'Globemaster' is an ornamental hybrid cultivar whose parent plants are Allium cristophii and A. macleanii. The chemical constituents of 'Globemaster' bulbs have not yet been examined; thus, a systematic phytochemical investigation was undertaken herein. A series of chromatographic separations of the MeOH extract of 'Globemaster' bulbs afforded 27 steroidal glycosides (1-27), which are classified into 23 spirostanol glycosides (1-8 and 11-25), two furostanol glycosides (9 and 26), a pregnane glycoside (10), and a cholestane glycoside (27). The structures of the hitherto undescribed compounds (1-10) were determined from the two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic data and hydrolysis. The cytotoxicity of the isolated compounds (1-27) toward HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells, A549 human adenocarcinoma lung cancer cells, and SBC-3 human small-cell lung cancer cells was evaluated. Compounds 8, 22, 23, 24, and 26 exhibited cytotoxicity toward all cell lines in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50 values in the 1.3-49 µM range.

RESUMO

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a central nervous system (CNS) neurodevelopmental disorder that includes autism, pervasive developmental disorder, and Asperger's syndrome. ASD is characterized by repetitive behaviors and social communication deficits. ASD is thought to be a multifactorial disorder with a range of genetic and environmental factors/candidates. Among such factors is the rab2b gene, although it remains unclear how Rab2b itself is related to the CNS neuronal and glial developmental disorganization observed in ASD patients. Rab2 subfamily members regulate intracellular vesicle transport between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi body. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to report that Rab2b positively regulates neuronal and glial cell morphological differentiation. Knockdown of Rab2b inhibited morphological changes in N1E-115 cells, which are often used as the neuronal cell differentiation model. These changes were accomplished with decreased expression levels of marker proteins in neuronal cells. Similar results were obtained for FBD-102b cells, which are used as the model of oligodendroglial cell morphological differentiation. In contrast, knockdown of Rab2a, which is another Rab2 family member not known to be associated with ASD, affected only oligodendroglial and not neuronal morphological changes. In contrast, treatment with hesperetin, a citrus flavonoid with various cellular protective effects, in cells recovered the defective morphological changes induced by Rab2b knockdown. These results suggest that knockdown of Rab2b inhibits differentiation in neuronal and glial cells and may be associated with pathological cellular phenotypes in ASD and that hesperetin can recover their phenotypes at the in vitro level at least.

RESUMO

To explore new candidates for anticancer agents from natural products, the underground parts of Agapanthus africanus, commonly used as an ornamental plant, were investigated phytochemically. As a result, 16 undescribed steroidal glycosides (1-16) were obtained, and their structures were determined mainly by NMR spectroscopic analysis and chemical transformations. The cytotoxic activities of the isolated compounds (1-16) against SBC-3 human small-cell lung cancer cells, A549 human adenocarcinoma cells, and HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells were evaluated using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Compound 1, a bisdesmosidic furostanol glycoside, and 10, a bisdesmosidic spirostanol glycoside, were cytotoxic to all three cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 1.2 to 13 µM. As 1 exhibited the most potent cytotoxicity against SBC-3 cells among the isolated compounds, its apoptosis-inducing activity toward SBC-3 cells was examined. Compound 1 arrested SBC-3 cells at the G2/M phase of the cell cycle and effectively induced apoptosis via an intrinsic pathway accompanied by the dissipation of membrane potential and morphological changes in mitochondria.

RESUMO

Saponaria officinalis L., commonly known as "Soapwort", is a rich source of triterpene glycosides; however, the chemical constituents of S. officinalis seeds have not been fully identified. In this study, we conducted a systematic phytochemical investigation of the seeds of S. officinalis and obtained 17 oleanane-type triterpene glycosides (1-17), including seven new glycosides (1-7). The structures of 1-7 were determined based on a detailed analysis of NMR spectroscopic data and chromatographic and spectroscopic analyses following specific chemical transformation. The cytotoxicities of the isolated compounds were evaluated against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells, A549 human adenocarcinoma lung cancer cells, and SBC-3 human small-cell lung cancer cells. The cytotoxicities of 1, 4, and 10 toward HL-60 cells and SBC-3 cells were nearly as potent as that of cisplatin. Compound 1, a bisdesmosidic triterpene glycoside obtained in good yield, arrested the cell cycle of SBC-3 cells at the G2/M phase, and induced apoptosis through an intrinsic pathway, accompanied by ROS generation. As a result of the mitochondrial dysfunction induced by 1, mitochondria selective autophagy, termed mitophagy, occurred in SBC-3 cells.

RESUMO

Systematic phytochemical investigation of the bark and leaves of Betula alba was independently conducted. A new cyclic diarylheptanoid glucoside (1), five diarylheptanoids (2-6), a phenylethanoid (7), a methyl salicylate glycoside (8), a dihydrobenzofuran glucoside (9), an arylbutanoid glycoside (10), two lignan glycosides (11 and 12), a flavanone glucoside (13), and a triterpene (14) were isolated from the bark of B. alba. On the other hand, two cyclic diarylheptanoids (15 and 16), five flavonoids (17-21), a phenylpropanoid (22), a phenylbutanoid glucoside (23), and a monoterpene glucoside (24) were obtained from the leaves of B. alba. The structures of the isolated compounds (1-24) were identified on the basis of one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic data. Compounds 1-24 were subsequently examined for aldose reductase (AR) inhibitory activity. Compounds 14 and 17-20 moderately inhibited AR activity with IC50 values ranging from 6.6 to 34 µM.

RESUMO

Three novel steroidal glycosides (1-3) and a previously described steroidal alkaloid glycoside (4) have been isolated from the bulbs of Fritillaria camtschatcensis (L.) Ker Gawl. (Liliaceae). The structures of novel compounds 1-3 were characterized based on NMR spectroscopy and chemical transformations. Compounds 1-3 are furospirostanol glycosides bearing a (3S)-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl moiety at C-26 in the aglycone. Compounds 1-4 were evaluated in terms of their cytotoxic activities toward HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells, A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells, and SBC-3 human lung small cell carcinoma cells. Only 4 showed moderate cytotoxicity against HL-60, A549, and SBC-3 cells with IC50 values of 22.9, 13.3, and 11.9 µM, respectively. Compound 4 was found to cause necrotic-like cell death in HL-60 cells.

RESUMO

Twelve steroidal glycosides (1-12) were isolated from the aerial parts of Avena sativa L. (Poaceae). Among the isolated compounds, 1 was directly isolated from the plant for the first time, and 2-6 were new steroidal glycosides. The structures of 1-6 were determined by analysis of their spectroscopic data, chemical transformations, and chromatographic and spectroscopic analyses of the hydrolyzed products. Compounds 5 and 6 were novel steroidal glycosides with a B-ring contracted skeleton (B-nor steroid). Compounds 1, 9, 11, and 12 were cytotoxic to HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells, MIA PaCa-2 human pancreatic carcinoma cells, and A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells with IC50 values ranging from 0.79 to 13.5 µM. HL-60 cells treated with 1 exhibited apoptotic characteristics, namely, condensed nuclear chromatin, accumulation of sub-G1 cells, and activation of caspase-3. Additionally, the loss of the mitochondrial membrane potential and the release of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm in 1-treated HL-60 cells suggested that 1 induced apoptosis through a mitochondrial-dependent apoptotic pathway.

RESUMO

Previously, the authors conducted phytochemical investigations of the aerial parts of Larrea tridentata and reported triterpene glycosides and lignan derivatives. In continuation of the preceding studies, 17 lignans and lignan glycosides (1-17) were isolated, including seven new compounds (1-7). Herein, the structure of the new compounds was determined based on spectroscopic analysis and enzymatic hydrolysis. The cytotoxicity of 1-17 against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells was examined. Compounds 4-11 and 14-16 were cytotoxic to HL-60 cells, with IC50 values in the range of 2.7-17 µM. Compound 6, which was the most cytotoxic among the unprecedented compounds, was shown to induce apoptotic cell death in HL-60 cells.

RESUMO

Phytochemical analysis of Thevetia neriifolia seeds resulted in the isolation of one new (1) and 23 known (2-24) cardenolide glycosides. The structure of 1 was determined based on one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic analysis and acid hydrolytic cleavage reaction. The effect of the cytotoxic activity of 1-24 on three human oral carcinoma cell lines was assessed. The cell lines included Ca9-22 human gingival carcinoma cells, HSC-2 human mouth carcinoma cells, HSC-4 human tongue carcinoma cells, and HGF human gingival fibroblast cells. The isolated compounds had a cytotoxic effect on the carcinoma cells with IC50 values ranging from 0.004 µM to 64.9 µM. The structure-activity relationship is also discussed.

RESUMO

Previously, various steroidal glycosides were reported from plants of Cestrum species. However, phytochemical investigation has not been conducted on Cestrum newellii. A systematic phytochemical investigation of the leaves of C. newellii resulted in the isolation of eight novel steroidal glycosides (1-8), which were classified into three spirostanol glycosides (1-3), two furostanol glycosides (4 and 5), two pseudofurostanol glycosides (6 and 7), and one cholestane glycoside (8). In addition, three known cholestane glycosides (9-11) were isolated and identified. The structures of the new compounds were determined based on spectroscopic data and chemical transformations. Compounds 1 and 2 are spirostanol glycosides having hydroxy groups at C-2, C-3, C-12, and C-24 of the aglycone moiety. Although C. newellii is known to be a poisonous plant, the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide assay exhibited that none of the isolated compounds were cytotoxic to HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells.

RESUMO

Cytotoxicity-guided fractionation of the MeOH extract of Helleborus lividus Aiton ex Curtis (Ranunculaceae) resulted in the isolation of five undescribed bufadienolide glycosides and two undescribed bufadienolides, along with three known compounds. Their structures were determined by detailed spectroscopic analysis and hydrolysis studies. The isolated compounds showed cytotoxicity against HL-60 human leukemia cells and A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells, with IC50 values ranging from 2.20 ± 0.01 nM to 0.77 ± 0.01 µM. The undescribed compound 3ß-[(O-ß-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 â†’ 4)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl)oxy]-14ß,16ß-dihydroxy-5ß-bufa-20,22-dienolide induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells via a mitochondria-dependent apoptotic pathway. The average IC50 values of bufadienolide monorhamnosides for HL-60 and A549 cells were 10-20 times lower than those for Na+/K+ ATPase, implying that they induce tumor cell death via a mechanism of action other than Na+/K+ ATPase inhibition.

RESUMO

Phytochemical analysis of the whole Helleborus foetidus plants identified 28 steroidal glycosides (1-28), including 20 novel spirostanol glycosides (1-20) and a novel furostanol glycoside (21). The structures of the newly identified compounds were elucidated by two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy and hydrolytic cleavage. Compounds 12, 13, and 15 were determined to be spirostanol trisdesmosides bearing sugar moieties at the C-1, -21, and -24 hydroxy groups of the aglycone unit. The isolated compounds were subsequently evaluated for cytotoxic activity against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells and A549 human lung carcinoma cells. In particular, 7 showed cytotoxic activity against the HL-60 and A549 cells, with IC50 values of 5.9 and 6.6 µM, respectively, whereas 19 was selectively cytotoxic to A549 cells with an IC50 value of 5.5 µM.

RESUMO

Two undescribed bufadienolide glucosides and four undescribed bufadienolides were isolated from the whole plants of Helleborus foetidus (Ranunculaceae). Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis and the results of hydrolytic cleavage. The isolated compounds exhibited cytotoxic activities against HL-60 and A549 cells with IC50 values ranging from 0.019 to 3.0 µM. The isolated compounds also showed the Na+/K+ ATPase inhibitory activity. The undescribed compound 16ß-formyloxy-10,14-dihydroxy-5ß-[(ß-d-glucopyranosyl)oxy]-19-norbufa-3,20,22-trienolide induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells through a mitochondria-dependent apoptotic pathway.

RESUMO

A search for cytotoxic cholestane glycosides from Ornithogalum saundersiae bulbs resulted in the isolation of three new OSW-1 analogues (1-3), a new cholestane bisdesmoside (4), a 5ß-cholestane diglycoside (5), and four new 24(23 → 22)-abeo-cholestane glycosides (6-9), together with 11 known cholestane glycosides (10-20), including OSW-1 (11). The structures of 1-9 were determined based on conventional spectroscopic analysis and chemical evidence. As expected, based on previous data, 1-3 exhibited potent cytotoxic activity against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells and A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells. Furthermore, the ability of OSW-1 to induce apoptosis in HL-60 cells was examined. Aggregation of nuclear chromatin, accumulation of the sub-G1 cells, DNA fragmentation, and caspase-3 activation were assessed in HL-60 cells treated with OSW-1, providing evidence for OSW-1-induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells. No mitochondrial membrane potential or release of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm were observed in the OSW-1-treated apoptotic HL-60 cells, indicating that a mitochondria-independent signaling pathway is involved in apoptotic cell death.

RESUMO

Previous phytochemical studies of the bulbs of Ornithogalum saundersiae, an ornamental perennial plant native to South Africa, resulted in the isolation of 29 new cholestane glycosides, some of which were structurally unique and showed potent cytotoxic activity against cultured tumor cell lines. Therefore, we aimed to perform further phytochemical examinations of methanolic extracts obtained from Ornithogalum saundersiae bulbs, isolating 12 new cholestane rhamnosides (1-12) and seven known compounds (13-19). The structures of the new compounds (1-12) were identified via NMR-based structural characterization methods, and through a sequence of chemical transformations followed by spectroscopic and chromatographic analysis. The cytotoxic activity of the isolated compounds (1-19) and the derivatives (1a and 6a) against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells and A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells was evaluated. Compounds 10-12, 16, and 17 showed cytotoxicity against both HL-60 and A549 cells. Compound 11 showed potent cytotoxicity with an IC50 value of 0.16 µM against HL-60 cells and induced apoptotic cell death via a mitochondrion-independent pathway.
