Ent-Abietanoids Isolated from Isodon serra.

ABSTRACT: Four new ent-abietane diterpenoids, along with four known ones were isolated from the aerial parts of Isodon serra, a traditional Chinese folk medicine. The new diterpenoids were named as serrin K (1), xerophilusin XVII (2), and enanderianins Q and R (3 and 4), while the known ones were identified as rubescansin J (5), (3?,14?)-3,18-[(1-methylethane-1,1-diyl)dioxy]-ent-abieta-7,15(17)-diene-14,16-diol (6), xerophilusin XIV (7), and enanderianin P (8), respectively. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis and comparison with the literature. Compound 1 showed remarkable inhibitory activity towards NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells (IC50 = 1.8 ?M) and weak cytotoxicity towards five human tumor cell lines (HL-60, SMMC-7721, A-549, MCF-7, SW480).

Epidermal regeneration by ent-16α, 17-dihydroxy-kauran-19-oic acid isolated from Siegesbeckia pubescens.

Project description:Objectives Keratinocyte stem/progenitor cells (KSCs) are known to regenerate epidermal tissue which they perform through to their great regenerative capacity.Materials and methods Because stimulation of resident KSCs may regenerate epidermal tissue, we devised a strategy to find an appropriate KSC activator from natural products and to develop it as a skin-rejuvenating agent.Results Ent-16α, 17-dihydroxy-kauran-19-oic acid (DHK) isolated from Siegesbeckia pubescens exhibited a KSC-stimulating effect during screening of natural products. DHK increased proliferation and migration of KSCs using the Akt/ERK pathway. We further examined the mechanism of KSC stimulation and found that phosphorylation of Y1068 epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) was significantly increased. Functional inhibition of EGFR using neutralizing antibody and a chemical inhibitor, AG1478, attenuated DHK-induced KSC stimulation. In a 3D culture model of KSCs, DHK treatment significantly induced establishment of fully stratified epidermis and increased numbers of p63-positive cells. Likewise, DHK treatment significantly accelerated healing of epidermal wounds created by laser and dermatome, and increased p63-positive cells, in animal models.Conclusion Collectively, these results indicate that DHK regenerates epidermal tissue mainly through EGFR phosphorylation. As DHK has diverse advantages over recombinant growth factors for commercialization (that is long-term stability and skin permeability), DHK might be applied to wound-healing agents and to a basic materials used in cosmetics.

Cytotoxic and Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Ent-Kaurane Derivatives Isolated from the Alpine Plant Sideritis hyssopifolia.

Project description:This paper reports the isolation and structural characterization of four new ent-kaurane derivatives from the Lamiaceae plant Sideritis hyssopifolia. Planar structures and relative configurations were determined using both mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (1D and 2D). Absolute configurations were determined by comparing experimental and theoretical electronic circular dichroism spectra. The cytotoxic and microbial activities of all new compounds were tested. Compounds that were non-cytotoxic were further evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity.

Dedicated ent-kaurene and ent-atiserene synthases for platensimycin and platencin biosynthesis.

Project description:Platensimycin (PTM) and platencin (PTN) are potent and selective inhibitors of bacterial and mammalian fatty acid synthases and have emerged as promising drug leads for both antibacterial and antidiabetic therapies. Comparative analysis of the PTM and PTN biosynthetic machineries in Streptomyces platensis MA7327 and MA7339 revealed that the divergence of PTM and PTN biosynthesis is controlled by dedicated ent-kaurene and ent-atiserene synthases, the latter of which represents a new pathway for diterpenoid biosynthesis. The PTM and PTN biosynthetic machineries provide a rare glimpse at how secondary metabolic pathway evolution increases natural product structural diversity and support the wisdom of applying combinatorial biosynthesis methods for the generation of novel PTM and/or PTN analogues, thereby facilitating drug development efforts based on these privileged natural product scaffolds.

16-Aza-ent-beyerane and 16-Aza-ent-trachylobane: potent mechanism-based inhibitors of recombinant ent-kaurene synthase from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Project description:The secondary ent-beyeran-16-yl carbocation (7) is a key branch point intermediate in mechanistic schemes to rationalize the cyclic structures of many tetra- and pentacyclic diterpenes, including ent-beyerene, ent-kaurene, ent-trachylobane, and ent-atiserene, presumed precursors to >1000 known diterpenes. To evaluate these mechanistic hypotheses, we synthesized the heterocyclic analogues 16-aza-ent-beyerane (12) and 16-aza-ent-trachylobane (13) by means of Hg(II)- and Pb(IV)-induced cyclizations onto the Delta12 double bonds of tricyclic intermediates bearing carbamoylmethyl and aminomethyl groups at C-8. The 13,16-seco-16-norcarbamate (20a) was obtained from ent-beyeran-16-one oxime (17) by Beckmann fragmentation, hydrolysis, and Curtius rearrangement. The aza analogues inhibited recombinant ent-kaurene synthase from Arabidopsis thaliana (GST-rAtKS) with inhibition constants (IC50 = 1 x 10-7 and 1 x 10-6 M) similar in magnitude to the pseudo-binding constant of the bicyclic ent-copalyl diphosphate substrate (Km = 3 x 10-7 M). Large enhancements of binding affinities (IC50 = 4 x 10-9 and 2 x 10-8 M) were observed in the presence of 1 mM pyrophosphate, which is consistent with a tightly bound ent-beyeranyl+/pyrophosphate- ion pair intermediate in the cyclization-rearrangement catalyzed by this diterpene synthase. The weak inhibition (IC50 = 1 x 10-5 M) exhibited by ent-beyeran-16-exo-yl diphosphate (11) and its failure to undergo bridge rearrangement to kaurene appear to rule out the covalent diphosphate as a free intermediate. 16-Aza-ent-beyerane is proposed as an effective mimic for the ent-beyeran-16-yl carbocation with potential applications as an active site probe for the various ent-diterpene cyclases and as a novel, selective inhibitor of gibberellin biosynthesis in plants.

ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic Acid, isolated from the roots of Aralia continentalis, induces activation of Nrf2.

Project description:Excessive inflammation can lead to tissue damage and dysfunction of vital organs. Hence, regulating inflammatory response is a viable therapeutic approach. In Asian countries, various inflammatory diseases have often effectively been treated with herbal remedies including the root extract of Aralia continentalis Kitagawa (Araliaceae). Here, we investigated the effect of kaurenoic acid (ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid: KA), a diterpenoid that is extracted from Aralia continentalis Kitagawa root, on inflammation.Western blot and RT-PCR analyses show that KA induced the nuclear localization of Nrf2 as low as 1 nM in concentration and that KA treatment induced the expression of Nrf2 dependent genes such as GCLC and HO-1. On the other hand, KA did not affect the degradation of cytoplasmic I?B-?, the nuclear localization of RelA (p65), and NF-?B transcriptional activity in RAW264.7 cells treated with endotoxin. Consistent with these data, KA treatment failed to suppress gene expression of representative pro-inflammatory mediators including COX-2, nitric oxide, IL-1?, TNF-?, and IL-12, indicating that KA did not have an important impact on NF-?B activation.Together, these results show that KA was an effective activator of Nrf2, and suggest that the beneficial effects of Aralia continentalis Kitagawa root extract are, at least in part, mediated by activating Nrf2.

Synthesis of ent-thallusin.

Project description:[reaction: see text] A three-step route from sclareol oxide (6) to bromo ester 4 in 53% overall yield was achieved using the efficient oxidation of an allylic bromide to an enal with bis(2,4,6-trimethylpyridine)silver(I) hexafluorophosphate in DMSO. Stille coupling of bromo ester 4 with stannylpyridine 5 gave the trimethyl ester of ent-thallusin in 54-92% yield by the stoichiometric conversion of 4 to a vinyl palladium intermediate prior to the addition of 5 to the reaction.

ent-Pimarane and ent-Kaurane Diterpenes from Aldama discolor (Asteraceae) and Their Antiprotozoal Activity.

Project description:Aldama discolor (syn.Viguiera discolor) is an endemic Asteraceae from the Brazilian "Cerrado", which has not previously been investigated for its chemical constituents and biological activity. Diterpenes are common secondary metabolites found in Aldama species, some of which have been reported to present potential antiprotozoal and antimicrobial activities. In this study, the known ent-3-?-hydroxy-kaur-16-en-18-ol (1), as well as three new diterpenes, namely, ent-7-oxo-pimara-8,15-diene-18-ol (2), ent-2S,4S-2-19-epoxy-pimara-8(3),15-diene-7?-ol (3) and ent-7-oxo-pimara-8,15-diene-3?-ol (4), were isolated from the dichloromethane extract of A. discolor leaves and identified by means of MS and NMR. The compounds were assayed in vitro against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, T. cruzi and Leishmania donovani, Plasmodium falciparum and also tested for cytotoxicity against mammalian cells (L6 cell line). The ent-kaurane 1 showed significant in vitro activity against both P. falciparum (IC 50 = 3.5 ? M) and L. donovani (IC 50 = 2.5 ? M) and ent-pimarane 2 against P. falciparum (IC 50 = 3.8 ? M). Both compounds returned high selectivity indices (SI >10) in comparison with L6 cells, which makes them interesting candidates for in vivo tests. In addition to the diterpenes, the sesquiterpene lactone budlein A (5), which has been reported to possess a strong anti-T. b. rhodesiense activity, was identified as major compound in the A. discolor extract and explains its high activity against this parasite (100% growth inhibition at 2 ? g/mL).

Auto-oxidation of Ent-beyer-15-en-19-al isolated from the essential oil of the heartwood of Erythroxylum monogynum Roxb.: formation of 15,16-epoxy-ent-beyeran-19-oic acid and other products.

Project description:Chemical investigation of the essential oil obtained from the heartwood of Erythroxylum monogynum Roxb. yielded three beyerene type diterpenoids ent-beyer-15-ene (1), ent-beyer-15-en-19-ol (erythroxylol A) (2) and ent-beyer-15-en-19-al (3). Ent-beyer-15-en-19-al (3) was found to be unstable at room temperature, giving rise to hitherto unknown 15,16-epoxy-ent-beyeran-19-oic acid (4). This conversion involves the auto-oxidation of a C-4 axial aldehyde group of an ent-beyer-15-ene diterpenoid with the concurrent epoxidation of the C-15 double bond. This is the first report of the auto-oxidation of an aldehyde group to a carboxylic acid group with the concurrent epoxidation of a double bond in the same compound. Further investigation of this observation under controlled conditions resulted in the isolation and identification of ent-beyer-15-en-19-oic acid (5), two new epoxy hydroperoxides, 15,16-epoxy-19-nor-ent-beyeran-4?-hydroperoxide (6a), 15,16-epoxy-18-nor-ent-beyeran-4?-hydroperoxide (6b), and two new hydroperoxides, ent-beyer-19-nor-15-en-4?-hydroperoxide (7), ent-beyer-18-nor-15-en-4?-hydroperoxide (8) and ent-beyer-18-nor-15-en-4?-ol (9). Identification of these compounds was carried out by the extensive usage of spectroscopic data including 1D and 2D NMR. The acid 5 and the alcohol 9 have been reported previously as natural products from Elaeoselinum asclepium and Erythroxylum monogynum. The mechanistic basis of this auto-oxidation reaction is discussed.

A concise synthesis of ent-Cholesterol.

Project description:ent-Cholesterol was synthesized in 16 steps from commercially available (S)-citronellol. The overall yield for the synthesis was 2.0%. This route is amenable to gram-scale preparation of ent-cholesterol. Isotopic incorporation near the end of the synthesis was achieved using labeled methyl iodide. This synthesis is the most practical to date and will make ent-cholesterol more readily available to use as a probe of the function and metabolism of cholesterol.
