Tangutidines A-C, Three Amphoteric Diterpene Alkaloids from Aconitum tanguticum.

ABSTRACT: Three new diterpene alkaloids, tangutidines A-C (1-3), and four known alkaloids (4-7) were isolated from the whole plant of Aconitum tanguticum, from which amphoteric diterpene alkaloids (1-3) were obtained for the first time. The structures of 1-3 were elucidated by detailed interpretation of spectroscopic data, including MS and NMR data. All of them were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities.

De novo RNA-sequencing and transcriptome analysis of Aconitum carmichaelii to analyze key genes involved in the biosynthesis of diterpene alkaloids

Project description:In this study, we have performed Illumina based RNA sequencing to characterize the transcriptome and expression profiles of genes expressed in 4 tissues of A. carmichaelii. RNA sequencing and de novo transcriptome assembly fo A. carmichaelii resulted in a total of 128,183 unigenes with 56,928 unigenes being annotated using NCBI-nr database. Transcriptome profile and analysis for 4 tissues of A. carmichaelii showed that unigenes annotated as possible rate-determining steps of aconitine-type biosynthetic pathway were highly expressed in the root.

De Novo RNA Sequencing and Expression Analysis of Aconitum carmichaelii to Analyze Key Genes Involved in the Biosynthesis of Diterpene Alkaloids.

Project description:Aconitum carmichaelii is an important medicinal herb used widely in China, Japan, India, Korea, and other Asian countries. While extensive research on the characterization of metabolic extracts of A. carmichaelii has shown accumulation of numerous bioactive metabolites including aconitine and aconitine-type diterpene alkaloids, its biosynthetic pathway remains largely unknown. Biosynthesis of these secondary metabolites is tightly controlled and mostly occurs in a tissue-specific manner; therefore, transcriptome analysis across multiple tissues is an attractive method to identify the molecular components involved for further functional characterization. In order to understand the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, Illumina-based deep transcriptome profiling and analysis was performed for four tissues (flower, bud, leaf, and root) of A. carmichaelii, resulting in 5.5 Gbps clean RNA-seq reads assembled into 128,183 unigenes. Unigenes annotated as possible rate-determining steps of an aconitine-type biosynthetic pathway were highly expressed in the root, in accordance with previous reports describing the root as the accumulation site for these metabolites. We also identified 21 unigenes annotated as cytochrome P450s and highly expressed in roots, which represent candidate unigenes involved in the diversification of secondary metabolites. Comparative transcriptome analysis of A. carmichaelii with A. heterophyllum identified 20,232 orthogroups, representing 30,633 unigenes of A. carmichaelii, gene ontology enrichment analysis of which revealed essential biological process together with a secondary metabolic process to be highly enriched. Unigenes identified in this study are strong candidates for aconitine-type diterpene alkaloid biosynthesis, and will serve as useful resources for further validation studies.

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.

C19-Norditerpenoid Alkaloids from Aconitum szechenyianum.

Project description:Three new C19-norditerpenoid alkaloids (1?3), along with two known C19-norditerpenoid alkaloids (4,5), have been isolated from Aconitum szechenyianum. Based on extensive spectroscopic techniques (1D, 2D-NMR, IR, and MS) and chemical methods, their structures were established as szechenyianine D (1), szechenyianine E (2), szechenyianine F (3), 8-O-methyl-14-benzoylaconine (4), and spicatine A (5). The immunosuppressive effects of compounds 1?5 were studied using a ConA-induced or LPS-induced splenocyte proliferation model. In vitro tests showed that Compounds 2, 4, and 5 suppressed ConA-induced or LPS-induced splenocyte proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner. The CC50/IC50 values of 2, 4, and 5 suggested that these compounds were potential immunosuppressive agents for the treatment of autoimmune diseases characterized by arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis.

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of the Tangut monkshood Aconitum tanguticum (Ranunculales: Ranunculaceae).

Project description:The Tangut monkshood (Aconitum tanguticum) is a perennial herb with high medicinal values. Here, its chloroplast genome was assembled from Illumina sequencing reads. The circular genome is 157,114 bp long with an A + T-biased nucleotide composition, and comprises a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (26,255 bp), separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region (87,559 bp) and a small single-copy (SSC) region (17,045 bp). It encodes a total of 112 gene species, with 19 of them being completely or partially duplicated and 18 of them harboring one or two introns. Phylogenetic analysis recovered two major clades of the genus Aconitum.

Biodiversity of Convolvulaceous species that contain Ergot Alkaloids, Indole Diterpene Alkaloids, and Swainsonine.

Project description:Convolvulaceous species have been reported to contain several bioactive principles thought to be toxic to livestock including the calystegines, swainsonine, ergot alkaloids, and indole diterpene alkaloids. Swainsonine, ergot alkaloids, and indole diterpene alkaloids are produced by seed transmitted fungal symbionts associated with their respective plant host, while the calystegines are produced by the plant. To date, Ipomoea asarifolia and Ipomoea muelleri represent the only Ipomoea species and members of the Convolvulaceae known to contain indole diterpene alkaloids, however several other Convolvulaceous species are reported to contain ergot alkaloids. To further explore the biodiversity of species that may contain indole diterpenes, we analyzed several Convolvulaceous species (n=30) for indole diterpene alkaloids, representing four genera, Argyreia, Ipomoea, Stictocardia, and Turbina, that had been previously reported to contain ergot alkaloids. These species were also verified to contain ergot alkaloids and subsequently analyzed for swainsonine. Ergot alkaloids were detected in 18 species representing all four genera screened, indole diterpenes were detected in two Argyreia species and eight Ipomoea species of the 18 that contained ergot alkaloids, and swainsonine was detected in two Ipomoea species. The data suggest a strong association exists between the relationship of the Periglandula species associated with each host and the occurrence of the ergot alkaloids and/or the indole diterpenes reported here. Likewise there appears to be an association between the occurrence of the respective bioactive principle and the genetic relatedness of the respective host plant species.

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.
