RESUMO
The phytochemical investigation on the rhizomes of Dryopteris crassirhizoma (Dryopteridaceae) resulted in the discovery of one novel compound, drycrassirhizomamide A (1), and one new natural product, drycrassirhizomamide B (2), as well as four known isolates, (S)-(-)-N-benzoylphenylalaninol (3), blumenol A (4), 8-C-glucosylnoreugenin (5), and dryopteroside (6). Their chemical structures were identified by NMR and mass spectroscopy. Compounds 1-2 were determined to be 1,19-diethyl 10-oxo-2,9,11,18-tetraazanonadecanedioate and C,C'-diethyl N,N'-1,6-hexanediylbis[carbamate]. The anti-inflammatory activities of these compounds were evaluated with LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage and BV2 microglia. The results showed that compounds 1-3 and 6 have inhibitory effects of NO production with IC50 values of 13.41, 30.36, 25.51, and 11.35 µM in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Also, compounds 1 and 4-6 have abilities to inhibit NO production with the IC50 values of 40.11, 30.94, 15.76, and 16.79 µM in BV2 cells, which demonstrated that they may possess the potential anti-inflammatory activity.
