Total synthesis of [13 C]2 -, [13 C]3 -, and [13 C]5 -isotopomers of xanthohumol, the principal prenylflavonoid from hops.

ABSTRACT: Xanthohumol [(E)-6'-methoxy-3'-(3-methylbuten-2-yl)-2',4',4?-trihydroxychalcone], he principal prenylated flavonoid from hops, has a complex bioactivity profile, and 13 C-labeled isotopomers of this compound are of potential use as molecular probes and as analytical standards to study metabolism and mode of action. 1,3-[13 C]2 -Xanthohumol was prepared by an adaptation of the total synthesis of Khupse and Erhardt in 7 steps and 5.7% overall yield from phloroglucinol by a route incorporating a cascade Claisen-Cope rearrangement to install the 3'-prenyl moiety from a 5'-prenyl aryl ether and an aldol condensation between 1-[13 C]-2',4'-bis(benzyloxymethyloxy)-6'-methoxy-3'-(3-methylbuten-2-yl)acetophenone and 1'-[13 C]-4-(methoxymethyloxy)benzaldehyde. The 13 C-atom in the methyl ketone was derived from 1-[13 C]-acetyl chloride while that in the aryl aldehyde was derived from [13 C]-iodomethane. Tri- and penta-13 C-labeled xanthohumols were similarly prepared by applying minor modifications to the route.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that has proved refractory to drug treatment. Given evidence of neuroprotection in animal models of ischemic stroke, we assessed the prenylflavonoid xanthohumol from the Common Hop (Humulus lupulus L.) for therapeutic potential in murine neuroblastoma N2a cells stably expressing human Swedish mutant amyloid precursor protein (N2a/APP), a well-characterized cellular model of AD. The ELISA and Western-blot analysis revealed that xanthohumol (Xn) inhibited A? accumulation and APP processing, and that Xn ameliorated tau hyperphosphorylation via PP2A, GSK3? pathways in N2a/APP cells. The amelioration of tau hyperphosphorylation by Xn was also validated on HEK293/Tau cells, another cell line with tau hyperphosphorylation. Proteomic analysis (2D-DIGE-coupled MS) revealed a total of 30 differentially expressed lysate proteins in N2a/APP vs. wild-type (WT) N2a cells (N2a/WT), and a total of 21 differentially expressed proteins in lysates of N2a/APP cells in the presence or absence of Xn. Generally, these 51 differential proteins could be classified into seven main categories according to their functions, including: endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-associated proteins; oxidative stress-associated proteins; proteasome-associated proteins; ATPase and metabolism-associated proteins; cytoskeleton-associated proteins; molecular chaperones-associated proteins, and others. We used Western-blot analysis to validate Xn-associated changes of some key proteins in several biological/pathogenic processes. Taken together, we show that Xn reduces AD-related changes in stably transfected N2a/APP cells. The underlying mechanisms involve modulation of multiple pathogenic pathways, including those involved in ER stress, oxidative stress, proteasome molecular systems, and the neuronal cytoskeleton. These results suggest Xn may have potential for the treatment of AD and/or neuropathologically related neurodegenerative diseases.
