PHYTOCHEMISTRY 2022; 203:113399. [PMID: 36027967 DOI: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2022.113399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2022] [Revised: 08/13/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Fourteen undescribed cassaine diterpenoids along with nine known ones were isolated from the seeds of Erythrophleum fordii Oliv. (Leguminosae). In addition, subsequent structural modification yielded ten derivatives. Their chemical structures were established by extensive spectroscopic methods and acid hydrolysis. All the diterpenoids were screened for their antiangiogenic activity using the human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) model. Five compounds were active, of which three possessed excellent activity as their effect was better than that of the positive control (SU5416). The structure-activity relationship analysis revealed that the side chain at C-13 was the key part affecting the inhibitory effect. Further study demonstrated that 3β-hydroxynorerythrosuamine-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside and the formate of 3β-hydroxynorerythrosuamine-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside significantly inhibited a series of angiogenic processes including proliferation, migration and capillary-like structure formation of endothelial cells. These findings may provide a new type of antiangiogenic agent for future cancer drug development.

PHYTOCHEMISTRY 2022; 197:113128. [PMID: 35183567 DOI: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2022.113128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2021] [Revised: 02/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Stilbenes are some of the important phenolic compounds originating from plant families like Vitaceae, Leguminaceae, Gnetaceae, and Dipterocarpaceae. Structurally, they have a C6-C2-C6 skeleton, usually with two isomeric forms. Stilbenes are biosynthesized due to biotic and abiotic stresses such as microbial infections, high temperatures, and oxidation. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of stilbenes' botanical sources, chemistry, biosynthetic pathways, pharmacology, and clinical applications and challenges based on up-to-date data. All included studies were collected from PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and CNKI, and the presented data from these indexed studies were analyzed and summarized. A total of 459 natural stilbene compounds from 45 plant families and 196 plant species were identified. Pharmacological studies also show that stilbenes have various activities such as anticancer, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-degenerative diseases, anti-diabetic, neuroprotective, anti-aging, and cardioprotective effects. Stilbene synthase (STS) is the key enzyme involved in stilbene biosynthetic pathways. Studies on the therapeutic application of stilbenes pinpoint that challenges such as low bioavailability and isomerization are the major bottlenecks for their development as therapeutic drugs. Although the medicinal uses of several stilbenes have been demonstrated in vivo and in vitro, studies on the development of stilbenes deserve more attention in the future.

Abstract
Erythrosides A-G, seven undescribed oleanane-type triterpenoid saponins, were isolated from the seeds of Erythrophleum fordii. Their structures with absolute configurations were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis including one-dimensional [1D] and two-dimensional [2D] nuclear magnetic resonance [NMR], high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy [HR-ESI-MS] analysis, and chemical methods. Erythrosides A-G featured a diverse oligosaccharide chain containing 4-6 pentoses or hexoses at C-3 and a monoterpenic acid or a (E)-cinnamic acid unit at the C-21 position. Of particular interest, erythrosides A-C, E and F contained a rare alpha xylose in their sugar chains. The bioassay results indicated that erythrosides A-C showed moderate cytotoxic activities against human lung cancer cell line PC9 with IC50 values of 13.14, 16.67 and 17.59 μM, respectively (the positive control, Taxol, IC50 = 0.60 nM).

Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21041298.

Abstract
Apoptosis pathways in cells are classified into two pathways: the extrinsic pathway, mediated by binding of the ligand to a death receptor and the intrinsic pathway, mediated by mitochondria. Apoptosis is regulated by various proteins such as Bcl-2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) family and cellular FLICE (Fas-associated Death Domain Protein Interleukin-1β-converting enzyme)-inhibitory protein (c-FLIP), which have been reported to inhibit caspase-8 activity. In this study, it was found that C5 (3β-Acetyl-nor-erythrophlamide), a compound of cassaine diterpene amine from Erythrophleum fordii, induced cell apoptosis in a variety of types of cancer cells. Induction of apoptosis in cancer cells by C5 was inversely related to the level of Bcl-2 expression. Overexpression of Bcl-2 into cancer cells significantly decreased C5-induced apoptosis. It was also found that treatment of cancer cells with a caspase-8 inhibitor significantly suppressed C5-induced apoptosis; however, treatment with caspase-9 inhibitors did not affect C5-induced apoptosis, suggesting that C5 may induce apoptosis via the extrinsic pathway by activating caspase-8. It was confirmed that treatment with C5 alone induced an association of FADD with procaspase-8; however, overexpression of c-FLIP decreased C5-induced caspase-8 activation. In conclusion, C5 could be utilized as a new useful lead compound for the development of an anti-cancer agent that has the goal of apoptosis.

Abstract
Six new cassaine diterpenoids (1, 3-7), along with three known ones (2, 8-9) were isolated from the seeds of Erythrophleum fordii. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods and acid hydrolysis. Compound 2 was tested to be the most potent one and showed more sensitive activities on MCF-7 and A549 cancer cells with IC50 values of 3.66 ± 1.20 and 2.87 ± 0.46 μM, respectively. Furthermore, compound 2 reduced the number of cell colonies significantly in a dose-dependent manner in the colony formation assay and triggered apoptosis of MCF-7 cell.
