Cytotoxic and NF-kappaB inhibitory constituents of Artocarpus rigida.

ABSTRACT: Four new prenylated flavonoids (1-4), a new stilbenoid (5), and nine known compounds were isolated from the twigs of Artocarpus rigida, collected in Indonesia. The structures of the new compounds were determined by analysis of their spectroscopic data, and the absolute configuration at C-12 of 1 and 2 and the known compounds artonin O (6), artobiloxanthone (7), and cycloartobiloxanthone (8) was determined from their CD and NMR spectroscopic data. Several of the compounds obtained were cytotoxic toward HT-29 human colon cancer cells, with the most potent being compound 2 and the known compounds 6 and 8. Of the substances obtained, compounds 1 and 7 were the most active in the NF-kappaB p50 and p65 assay, respectively.

Cytotoxic and NF-?B inhibitory constituents of the stems of Cratoxylum cochinchinense and their semisynthetic analogues.

Project description:A new caged xanthone (1), a new prenylxanthone (2), seven known xanthones, and a known sterol glucoside were isolated from the stems of Cratoxylum cochinchinense, collected in Vietnam. Compounds 1 and 2 were determined structurally by analysis of their spectroscopic data. In addition, five new (10 and 16-19) and eight known prenylated xanthone derivatives were synthesized from the known compounds ?-mangostin (3) and cochinchinone A (6). Several of these substances were found to be cytotoxic toward HT-29 human colon cancer cells, with the most potent being 3,6-di-O-acetyl-?-mangostin (8, ED50, 1.0 ?M), which was tested further in an in vivo hollow fiber assay, but found to be inactive at the highest dose used (20 mg/kg; ip). Of the substances evaluated in a NF-?B p65 inhibition assay, 1,3,7-trihydroxy-2,4-diisoprenylxanthone (5) exhibited the most potent activity (IC50, 2.9 ?M). In a mitochondrial transmembrane potential assay, two new compounds, 1 (IC50, 3.3 ?M) and 10 (IC50, 1.4 ?M), and two known compounds, 3 (?-mangostin, IC50, 0.2 ?M) and 11 (3,6-di-O-methyl-?-mangostin, IC50, 0.9 ?M), were active. A preliminary analogue development study showed that 3,6-diacetylation and 6-benzoylation both slightly increased the cytotoxicity of ?-mangostin (3), whereas methylation reduced such activity. In contrast, neither acetylation, benzoylation, nor methylation enhanced the cytotoxicity of cochinchinone A (6).

Dynamic redox control of NF-kappaB through glutaredoxin-regulated S-glutathionylation of inhibitory kappaB kinase beta.

Project description:The transcription factor NF-kappaB, a central regulator of immunity, is subject to regulation by redox changes. We now report that cysteine-179 of the inhibitory kappaB kinase (IKK) beta-subunit of the IKK signalosome is a central target for oxidative inactivation by means of S-glutathionylation. S-glutathionylation of IKK-beta Cys-179 is reversed by glutaredoxin (GRX), which restores kinase activity. Conversely, GRX1 knockdown sensitizes cells to oxidative inactivation of IKK-beta and dampens TNF-alpha-induced IKK and NF-kappaB activation. Primary tracheal epithelial cells from Glrx1-deficient mice display reduced NF-kappaB DNA binding, RelA nuclear translocation, and MIP-2 (macrophage inflammatory protein 2) and keratinocyte-derived chemokine production in response to LPS. Collectively, these findings demonstrate the physiological relevance of the S-glutathionylation-GRX redox module in controlling the magnitude of activation of the NF-kappaB pathway.

Cytotoxic and NF-?B inhibitory sesquiterpene lactones from Piptocoma rufescens.

Project description:Six new (1-6) and eight known germacranolide-type sesquiterpene lactones, along with several known phenylpropanol coumarates and methylated flavonoids, were isolated from the leaves of Piptocoma rufescens, collected in the Dominican Republic. The new compounds were identified by analysis of their spectroscopic data, with the molecular structure of 3 being established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The absolute configurations of the sesquiterpene lactones isolated were determined from their CD and NOESY NMR spectra, together with the analysis of Mosher ester reactions. Bioassay screening results showed the majority of the sesquiterpene lactones isolated (1-13) to be highly cytotoxic toward the HT-29 human colon cancer cell line, with the most potent compound being 15-deoxygoyazensolide (10, IC(50), 0.26 µM). In addition, several of the sesquiterpene lactones exhibited NF-?B (p65) inhibitory activity.

Proteasome-inhibitory and cytotoxic constituents of Garcinia lateriflora: absolute configuration of caged xanthones.

Project description:A new biflavonoid (1), a new xanthone enantiomer (2), five new caged xanthones (3-7), and several known compounds were isolated from the stem bark of Garcinia lateriflora, collected in Indonesia. The structures of the new compounds were determined by analysis of spectroscopic data, and the absolute configuration of the caged xanthones was shown for the first time at carbons 5, 7, 8, 8a, 10a, and 27, by analysis of COSY and NOESY NMR and ECD spectra. The biflavonoids exhibited proteasome inhibitory activity, and the known compound, morelloflavone (8) was found to have the greatest potency (IC(50) = 1.3 muM). The caged xanthones were cytotoxic towards HT-29 cells, with the known compound, morellic acid (10) being the most active (ED(50) = 0.36 muM). However, when tested in an in vivo hollow fiber assay, it was inactive at the highest dose tested (20 mg/kg).

Single TNFalpha trimers mediating NF-kappaB activation: stochastic robustness of NF-kappaB signaling.

Project description:BackgroundThe NF-kappaB regulatory network controls innate immune response by transducing variety of pathogen-derived and cytokine stimuli into well defined single-cell gene regulatory events.ResultsWe analyze the network by means of the model combining a deterministic description for molecular species with large cellular concentrations with two classes of stochastic switches: cell-surface receptor activation by TNFalpha ligand, and IkappaBalpha and A20 genes activation by NF-kappaB molecules. Both stochastic switches are associated with amplification pathways capable of translating single molecular events into tens of thousands of synthesized or degraded proteins. Here, we show that at a low TNFalpha dose only a fraction of cells are activated, but in these activated cells the amplification mechanisms assure that the amplitude of NF-kappaB nuclear translocation remains above a threshold. Similarly, the lower nuclear NF-kappaB concentration only reduces the probability of gene activation, but does not reduce gene expression of those responding.ConclusionThese two effects provide a particular stochastic robustness in cell regulation, allowing cells to respond differently to the same stimuli, but causing their individual responses to be unequivocal. Both effects are likely to be crucial in the early immune response: Diversity in cell responses causes that the tissue defense is harder to overcome by relatively simple programs coded in viruses and other pathogens. The more focused single-cell responses help cells to choose their individual fates such as apoptosis or proliferation. The model supports the hypothesis that binding of single TNFalpha ligands is sufficient to induce massive NF-kappaB translocation and activation of NF-kappaB dependent genes.

Histone Deacetylase Inhibitory and Cytotoxic Activities of the Constituents from the Roots of <i>Sophora Pachycarpa</i>.

Project description:Four prenylated flavonoids, including isosophoranone, sophoraflavanone G, alopecurone J, alopecurone P, and a resveratrol derivative HPD (2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b] furan-3,4,6-triol), were isolated from the roots of Sophora pachycarpa. The cytotoxic activity of obtained compounds was evaluated against A2780, A549, HeLa, and HCT116 human cancer cell lines. We also evaluated their histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitory activities. Of all compounds tested, alopecurone J was the most active with IC50 values in the range of 9.97-30.91 μM against four cancer cell lines with potent pan-HDAC inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.08-3.85 μM). Molecular docking experiments of these compounds with HDAC8 displayed potential selective HDAC inhibitory. Molecular docking data showed consistent results in the in-vitro experiments with high selectivity towards HDAC8. The Resveratrol group plays an essential role in HDAC inhibition.

Analysis of variation in NF-kappaB genes and expression levels of NF-kappaB-regulated molecules.

Project description:The nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) family of transcription factors regulates the expression of a variety of genes involved in apoptosis and immune response. We examined relationships between genotypes at five NF-kappaB subunits (NFKB1, NFKB2, REL, RELA, and RELB) and variable expression levels of 15 NF-kappaB regulated proteins with heritability greater than 0.40: BCL2A1, BIRC2, CD40, CD44, CD80, CFLAR, CR2, FAS, ICAM1, IL15, IRF1, JUNB, MYC, SLC2A5, and VCAM1. SNP genotypes and expression phenotypes from pedigrees of Utah residents with ancestry from northern and western Europe were provided by Genetic Analysis Workshop 15 and supplemented with additional genotype data from the International HapMap Consortium. We conducted association, linkage, and family-based association analyses between each candidate gene and the 15 heritable expression phenotypes. We observed consistent results in association and linkage analyses of the NFKB1 region (encoding p50) and levels of FAS and IRF1 expression. FAS is a cell surface protein that also belongs to the TNF-receptor family; signals through FAS are able to induce apoptosis. IRF1 is a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor family, which has been shown to regulate apoptosis and tumor-suppression. Analyses in the REL region (encoding c-Rel) revealed linkage and association with CD40 phenotype. CD40 proteins belong to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-receptor family, which mediates a broad variety of immune and inflammatory responses. We conclude that variation in the genes encoding p50 and c-Rel may play a role in NF-kappaB-related transcription of FAS, IRF1, and CD40.

Human variation in PolII and NF-KappaB binding (ChIP-seq study with NF-KappaB)

Project description:We examined genome-wide variation in transcription factor binding in different individuals and a chimpanzee using chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by massively-parallel sequencing (ChIP-Seq). The binding sites of RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) as well as a key regulator of immune responses, NFkB, were mapped in ten HapMap lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from individuals of African, European, and Asian ancestry, including a parent-offspring trio. We also mapped gene expression in all ten human cell lines for two treatment conditions: a) no treatment and b) following induction by TNF-alpha.

NF-kappaB activation in melanoma.

Project description:Metastatic melanoma is an aggressive skin cancer that is notoriously resistant to current cancer therapies. In human melanoma, nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) is upregulated, leading to the deregulation of gene transcription. In this review, we discuss (i) the relationship between gene alteration in melanoma and upregulation of NF-kappaB, (ii) mechanisms by which activated NF-kappaB switch from pro-apoptotic to anti-apoptotic functions in melanoma and (iii) autocrine mechanisms that promote constitutive activation of NF-kappaB in metastatic melanoma.

Constituents of an extract of Cryptocarya rubra housed in a repository with cytotoxic and glucose transport inhibitory effects.

Project description:A new alkylated chalcone (1), a new 1,16-hexadecanediol diester (2), and eight known compounds were isolated from a dichloromethane-soluble repository extract of the leaves and twigs of Cryptocarya rubra collected in Hawaii. The structures of the new compounds were determined by interpretation of their spectroscopic data, and the absolute configurations of the two known cryptocaryanone-type flavonoid dimers, (+)-bicaryanone A (3) and (+)-chalcocaryanone C (4), were ascertained by analysis of their electronic circular dichroism and NOESY NMR spectra. All compounds isolated were evaluated against HT-29 human colon cancer cells, and, of these, (+)-cryptocaryone (5) was found to be potently cytotoxic toward this cancer cell line, with an IC50 value of 0.32 ?M. This compound also exhibited glucose transport inhibitory activity when tested in a glucose uptake assay.
