Diterpenoid Alkaloids from the Aerial Parts of Aconitum flavum Hand.-Mazz.

ABSTRACT: Sixteen diterpenoid alkaloids (DAs), including six aconitine-type alkaloids (5 and 9 - 13), seven 7,17-seco-aconitine-type alkaloids (1 - 4, 6 - 8), two napelline-type alkaloids (14 and 15) as well as one veatchine-type alkaloid (16), were isolated from the aerial parts of Aconitum flavum Hand.-Mazz. In which, flavumolines A - D (1 - 4) were four new ones, and flavumoline E (5) was reported as natural compound for the first time. Their chemical structures were elucidated by the analysis of extensive spectroscopic data. The inhibitory activities of these isolates on Ca_v3.1 low voltage-gated Ca²⁺ channel, NO production in LPS-activated RAW264.7cells, five human tumor cell lines, as well as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were tested.

Species Identification and Genetic Diversity Analysis of Medicinal Plants Aconitum pendulum Busch and Aconitum flavum Hand.-Mazz.

Project description:The classification system for the genus Aconitum is highly complex. It is also the subject of ongoing debate. Aconitum pendulum Busch and Aconitum flavum Hand.-Mazz. are perennial herbs of the genus Aconitum. Dried roots of these two plants are used in traditional Chinese medicine. In this study, morphological observations and ISSR molecular markers were employed to discriminate between A. flavum and A. pendulum, with the objective of gaining insights into the interspecies classification of Aconitum. The pubescence on the inflorescence of A. flavum was found to be appressed, while that on the inflorescence of A. pendulum was spread. UPGMA (unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic average) cluster analysis, PCoA (principal coordinates analysis), and Bayesian structural analysis divided the 199 individuals (99 individuals from DWM population and 100 individuals from QHL population) into two main branches, which is consistent with the observations of the morphology of pubescence on the inflorescence. These analyses indicated that A. flavum and A. pendulum are distinct species. No diagnostic bands were found between the two species. Two primer combinations (UBC808 and UBC853) were ultimately selected for species identification of A. flavum and A. pendulum. This study revealed high levels of genetic diversity in both A. flavum (He = 0.254, I = 0.395, PPB = 95.85%) and A. pendulum (He = 0.291, I = 0.445, PPB = 94.58%). We may say, therefore, that ISSR molecular markers are useful for distinguishing A. flavum and A. pendulum, and they are also suitable for revealing genetic diversity and population structure.

Evaluation of Aconitum diterpenoid alkaloids as antiproliferative agents.

Project description:Little information has been reported on the antitumor effects of the diterpenoid alkaloid constituents of Aconitum plants, used in the herbal drug 'bushi'. This study was aimed at determining the antitumor activities of Aconitum C19-and C20-diterpenoid alkaloids and synthetic derivatives against lung (A549), prostate (DU145), nasopharyngeal (KB), and vincristine-resistant nasopharyngeal (KB-VIN) cancer cell lines. Newly synthesized C20-diterpenoid alkaloid derivatives showed substantial suppressive effects against all human tumor cell lines tested. In contrast, natural and derivatized C19-diterpenoid alkaloids showed only a slight or no effect. Most of the active compounds were hetisine-type C20-diterpenoid alkaloids, specifically kobusine and pseudokobusine analogs with two different substitution patterns, C-11 and C-11,15. Notably, several C20-diterpenoid alkaloids were more potent against multidrug-resistant KB subline KB-VIN cells. Pseudokobusine 11-3'-trifluoromethylbenzoate (94) is a possible promising new lead meriting additional evaluation against multidrug-resistant tumors.

Diterpenoid alkaloids from Aconitum brevicalcaratum as autophagy inducers.

Project description:A new C19 diterpenoid alkaloid, brevicanine (1) and six known ones (2-7) were isolated from Aconitum brevicalcaratum (Finet et Gagnep.) Diels. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses. The cytotoxicity of those compounds was investigated against HCT116 human cancer cell line, which showed none of them possessing considerable anti-proliferative activities. To evaluate the autophagy effect of compounds 1-7, Western blot was used to detect the expression of autophagic marker by stimulating human cancer HCT116 cells. The results showed that compound 6 induced protective autophagy in HCT116 cells. Mechanistic insight showed that compound 6 induced protective autophagy through p53 activation, ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK signaling cascade.

Functional identification of the terpene synthase family involved in diterpenoid alkaloids biosynthesis in Aconitum carmichaelii

Project description:Aconitum carmichaelii is a high-value medicinal herb widely used across China, Japan, and other Asian countries. Aconitine-type diterpene alkaloids (DAs) are the characteristic compounds in Aconitum. Although six transcriptomes, based on short-read next generation sequencing technology, have been reported from the Aconitum species, the terpene synthase (TPS) corresponding to DAs biosynthesis remains unidentified. We apply a combination of Pacbio isoform sequencing and RNA sequencing to provide a comprehensive view of the A. carmichaelii transcriptome. Nineteen TPSs and five alternative splicing isoforms belonging to TPS-b, TPS-c, and TPS-e/f subfamilies were identified. In vitro enzyme reaction analysis functional identified two sesqui-TPSs and twelve diTPSs. Seven of the TPS-c subfamily genes reacted with GGPP to produce the intermediate ent-copalyl diphosphate. Five AcKSLs separately reacted with ent-CPP to produce ent-kaurene, ent-atiserene, and ent-13-epi-sandaracopimaradie: a new diterpene found in Aconitum. AcTPSs gene expression in conjunction DAs content analysis in different tissues validated that ent-CPP is the sole precursor to all DAs biosynthesis, with AcKSL1, AcKSL2s and AcKSL3-1 responsible for C20 atisine and napelline type DAs biosynthesis, respectively. These data clarified the molecular basis for the C20-DAs biosynthetic pathway in A. carmichaelii and pave the way for further exploration of C19-DAs biosynthesis in the Aconitum species. Graphical abstract A Pacbio full-length transcriptome of Aconitum carmichaelii were publicly available. Twelve diterpene synthases were functional identified to responsible for atisine, napelline type diterpene alkaloids (DAs) and ent-13-epi-sandaracopimaradie biosynthesis, respectively.Image 1

Amides, Isoquinoline Alkaloids and Dipeptides from the Aerial Parts of Piper mullesua.

Project description:One undescribed amide, pipermullesine A, two undescribed isoquinoline alkaloids, pipermullesines B and C, and six undescribed dipeptides, pipermullamides A-F, along with 28 known compounds, were isolated from the aerial parts of Piper mullesua. The structures of the undescribed compounds were elucidated based on the analysis of 1D and 2D NMR and MS data. Furthermore, the structures of pipermullesines A-C were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. All isolates were evaluated for inhibitory activity against platelet aggregation induced by thrombin (IIa) or platelet-activating factor (PAF). (-)-Mangochinine, pellitorine, and (2E,4E)-N-isobutyl-2,4-dodecadienamide showed weak inhibitory activity against rabbit platelet aggregation induced by PAF, with IC50 values of 470.3 µg/mL, 614.9 µg/mL, and 579.7 µg/mL, respectively.

Structure, property, biogenesis, and activity of diterpenoid alkaloids containing a sulfonic acid group from Aconitum carmichaelii.

Project description:Three new C20-diterpenoid alkaloids with a sulfonic acid unit, named aconicarmisulfonines B and C (1 and 2) and chuanfusulfonine A (3), respectively, were isolated from the Aconitum carmichaelii lateral roots ("fu zi" in Chinese). Structures of 1-3 were determined by spectroscopic data analysis. Intriguing chemical properties and reactions were observed for the C20-diterpenoid alkaloids: (a) specific selective nucleophilic addition of the carbonyl (C-12) in 1 with CD3OD; (b) interconversion between 1 and 2 in D2O; (c) stereo- and/or regioselective deuterations of H-11α in 1-3 and both H-11α and H-11β in aconicarmisulfonine A (4); (d) TMSP-2,2,3,3-d 4 promoted cleavage of the C-12-C-13 bond of 4 in D2O; (e) dehydrogenation of 4 in pyridine-d 5, and (f) Na2SO3-assisted dehydrogenation and N-deethylation of songorine (5, a putative precursor of 1-4). Biogenetically, 1 and 2 are correlated with 4, for which the same novel carbon skeleton is proposed to be derived from semipinacol rearrangements via migrations of C-13-C-16 and C-15-C-16 bonds of the napelline-type skeleton, respectively. Meanwhile, 3 is a highly possible precursor or a concurrent product in the biosynthetic pathways of 1, 2, and 4. In the acetic acid-induced mice writhing assay, at 1.0 mg/kg (i.p.), compounds 1, 2, 5, 5a, and 5b exhibited analgesic effects against mice writhing.

Diterpenoid alkaloids of Aconitum laciniatum and mitigation of inflammation by 14-O-acetylneoline in a murine model of ulcerative colitis.

Project description:Aconitum laciniatum is used in Bhutanese traditional medicine for treating various chronic infections and inflammatory conditions. We carried out in-depth isolation and characterization of the phytochemicals from the root component and determined the anti-inflammatory effects of the isolated compounds against chemically-induced colitis in mice. Five diterpenoid alkaloids - pseudaconitine, 14-veratroylpseudaconine, 14-O-acetylneoline, neoline, and senbusine A - were isolated from A. laciniatum for the first time. Two of the alkaloids were tested for anti-inflammatory properties in the TNBS-induced colitis model in mice. Various parameters were measured to assess pathology including weight loss, clinical and macroscopic scores, histological structure and IFN-γ production in the gut. Of the two alkaloids tested, 14-O-acetylneoline showed significant protection against different parameters of colitic inflammation. Compared to control mice that received TNBS alone, mice treated with 14-O-acetylneoline experienced significantly less weight loss and had significantly lower clinical scores, macroscopic pathology and grades of histological inflammation. Moreover, colonic IFN-γ mRNA levels were significantly reduced in mice that received 14-O-acetylneoline compared to control mice that received TNBS alone. This alkaloid is now considered a novel anti-colitis drug lead compound.
