[PMID: 39122119 DOI: 10.1016/j.fitote.2024.106174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2024] [Revised: 07/25/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
Under the guidance of MS/MS-based molecular networking, five new clerodane diterpenoid glucosides, tinosinesides R-V (1-5), along with 15 known diterpenoids (6-20), were isolated from the stems of Tinospora sinensis. Compound 1 represents the first example of diterpenoid bearing a thio sugar and compound 5 is the first 18,19-dinor-clerodane with cis-fused A/B ring. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic means, and their absolute configurations were established on the basis of time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) based electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation and chemical methods. Selected compounds were evaluated for their immunomodulatory effect and several compounds could enhance the proliferation of B lymphocytes. Preliminary mechanistic studies disclosed that 3 could promote B cell generation and inhibit B cell differentiation.

The screened compounds from Ligustri Lucidi Fructus using the immobilized calcium sensing receptor column exhibit osteogenic activity in vitro. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2024; 245:116192. [PMID: 38703747 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2024.116192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 04/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
Calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) has become the novel target of treating osteoporosis with herbal medicine Ligustri Lucidi Fructus (LLF), however, the bioactive compounds responsible for anti-osteoporosis are hard to clarify due to the complexity and diversity of chemical constituents in it. Herein, the immobilized CaSR column was packed with stationary phase materials, which were derived from integrating CLIP-tagged CaSR directly out of crude cell lysates onto the surface of silica gels (5.83 mg/g) in a site-specific covalent manner. The column had a great specificity of recognizing agonists and kept a good stability for at least 3 weeks. The two compounds from LLF extract were screened and identified as olenuezhenoside and ligustroflavone using the immobilized CaSR column in conjunction with mass spectrometry. Molecular docking predicted that both compounds were bound in venus flytrap (VFT) domain of CaSR by the formation of hydrogen bonds. Cellular results showed that both compounds exhibited the distinct osteogenic activity by enhancing the proliferation, differentiation and mineralization of osteoblastic cells. Our study demonstrated that, the immobilized protein column enables to screen the bioactive compounds rapidly from herbal extract, and the newly discovered natural product ligands towards CaSR, including olenuezhenoside and ligustroflavone, will be the candidates for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Braz DM, Tozin LRDS, Gevú KV, Lima HRP, Santos VD, Oliveira RAMD, Santos VOD, Santos FRD, Castro RN, Carvalho MG, Braz-Filho R. Folk medicine, biological activity, and chemical profiles of Brazilian Acanthaceae (Lamiales) - A review. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 327:117980. [PMID: 38453098 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2024.117980] [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: 11/07/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/24/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The botanical family Acanthaceae (order Lamiales) potentially comprises 4900 species in 191 genera with extensive morphological, habit and habitat diversity. The family is widely distributed throughout the world but is especially rich in tropical and subtropical regions. Many of its species have great ornamental importance and are broadly used for medicinal purposes in several countries of Asia and Africa. Brazil is a main center of diversity of the family, where they are distributed across all its biomes, mainly in the herbaceous-shrub stratum. Medicinal investigations about Brazilian species are scarce, the exception being a single native species, Justicia pectoralis Jacq., that is widely used and studied chemically. AIM OF THE REVIEW This work compiled studies that indicated folk medicinal use, investigated biological activity, or evaluated the chemical composition of Brazilian species of Acanthaceae. MATERIAL AND METHODS Medicinal uses, investigations of biological activities and chemical data were collected and summarized through bibliographic surveys. Tables were compiled to standardize the information and the appropriate references were gathered for each species. Registration of chemical components used in the treatment of ailments and in preserving health were emphasized with the aim of stimulating future investigations. RESULTS The breadths of habitats and morphologies of the family are directly related to its chemical diversity, as confirmed here for Brazilian species. Although the investigated species represent less than 9% of the total richness of the family in Brazil, they encompass a great diversity of chemical substances. The data indicated folk medicinal uses for 26 species and biological tests for 23, while 30 species were investigated chemically. Ruellia and Justicia were the most researched genera with 12 and 11 species, representing approximately 14% and 7% of Brazilian species of each genus, respectively. Two species are native to other countries but become naturalized in Brazil. Studies of native species were carried out in different countries around the world, with many reports of medicinal uses and biological tests. Examples of uses include anticancer and antidepressant actions, as well as activities against respiratory problems and other diseases. CONCLUSIONS This work highlights the chemical and biological diversity of the studied Brazilian species of Acanthaceae, which emphasizes the need to expand studies with native Brazilian species.

Abstract
Covering: up to March 2023Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a popular tool for analyzing the structures of natural products (NPs). This review presents a summary of the recent advancements in ML-assisted mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data analysis to establish the chemical structures of NPs. First, ML-based MS/MS analyses that rely on library matching are discussed, which involves the utilization of ML algorithms to calculate similarity, predict the MS/MS fragments, and form molecular fingerprint. Then, ML assisted MS/MS structural annotation without library matching is reviewed. Furthermore, the cases of ML algorithms in assisting structural studies of NPs based on NMR are discussed from four perspectives: NMR prediction, functional group identification, structural categorization and quantum chemical calculation. Finally, the review concludes with a discussion of the challenges and the trends associated with the structural establishment of NPs based on ML algorithms.

Abstract
Ferula sinkiangensis K. M. Shen (Apiaceae) is distributed in arid desert areas of Xinjiang, and its resin is a traditional Chinese medicine to treat gastrointestinal digestive diseases. To explore bioactive components from F. sinkiangensis, three new lignans and thirteen known components were isolated. The structural elucidation of the components was established utilizing spectroscopic analyses together with ECD calculations. Griess reaction results indicated new compounds 1 and 2 significantly decreased NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages, and ELISA results indicated that they effectively attenuated LPS-induced inflammation by inhibiting TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 expressions. The in silico approach confirmed that compound 1 docked into the receptors with strong binding energies of -5.84~-10.79 kcal/mol. In addition, compound 6 inhibited the proliferation of AGS gastric cancer cells with IC50 values of 15.2 μM by suppressing the cell migration and invasion. This study disclosed that F. sinkiangensis might be a promising potential resource for bioactive components.

Abstract
The Averrhoa carambola L. tree encompasses a myriad of phytochemicals contributing to its nutritional and health benefits. The current study aims at investigating the A. carambola L. the metabolite profile grown in tropical and temperate regions represented by fruit and stem, for the first time using UPLC/MS-based molecular networking and chemometrics. Asides, assessment of the immunostimulatory effect of ripe fruit and stem, was compared in relation to metabolite fingerprints. Eighty metabolites were identified, 8 of which are first-time to be reported including 3 dihydrochalcone-C-glycosides, 4 flavonoids, and one phenolic. Multivariate data analysis revealed dihydrochalcones as origin-discriminating metabolites between temperate and tropical grown fruits. Further, an in vivo immunomodulatory assay in a cyclosporine A-induced rat model revealed a potential immune-enhancing effect as manifested by down-regulation of inflammatory markers (IL-6, INF-γ, IL-1, TLR4, and ESR) concurrent with the up-regulation of CD4 level and the CD4/CD8 ratio. Moreover, both extracts suppressed elevation of liver and kidney functions in serum as well as reduction in oxidative stress with concurrent increased levels of T-protein, albumin, globulin, and A/G ratio. This study pinpoints differences in secondary metabolite profiles amongst A. carambola L. accessions from different origins and organ type and its immunomodulatory action mechanisms.

Abstract
Justicia secunda Vahl. is a traditional medicinal plant in tropical regions, including West Africa. The present study examined the chemical profiles and biological properties of J. secunda extracts obtained with different solvents (dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, methanolic and aqueous: macerated and infused). Chemical components were characterized by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), and over 50 compounds were identified, including flavonoids, phenolic acids, and alkaloids. Antioxidant, enzyme inhibitory, cytotoxic, and antiviral properties were selected as biological properties. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents in methanol (58.07 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g and 13.07 mg rutin equivalent (RE)/g) and water (infused) (36.34 mg GAE/g and 8.52 mg RE/g) were higher than in other extracts. Consistent with the levels of total bioactive components, the methanol and water extracts exhibited stronger antioxidant abilities. However, the dichloromethane and ethyl acetate extracts were more active on α-amylase and α-glucosidase than other extracts. Aqueous extracts exerted selective anticancer properties toward human pharyngeal cancer cell lines, whereas the methanolic extract decreased the human herpesvirus type-1 (HHV-1) infectious titer by 2.16 log and the viral load by 1.21 log. Overall, J. secunda could be considered a multifunctional bioactive raw material in the preparation of potent applications to manage diseases related to oxidative stress, including cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer's.

Abstract
Penicillium setosum represents a Penicillium species recently described, with little up-to-date information about its metabolic and biological potential. Due to this scenario, we performed chemical and biological studies of P. setosum CMLD18, a strain isolated from Swinglea glutinosa (Rutaceae). HRMS-MS guided dereplication strategies and anti-leukemia assays conducted the isolation and characterization of six compounds after several chromatographic procedures: 2-chloroemodic acid (2), 2-chloro-1,3,8-trihydroxy-6- (hydroxymethyl)-anthraquinone (7), 7-chloroemodin (8), bisdethiobis(methylthio)acetylaranotine (9), fellutanine C (10), and 4-methyl-5,6-diihydro-2H-pyran-2-one (15). From the assayed metabolites, (10) induced cellular death against Kasumi-1, a human leukemia cell line, as well as good selectivity for it, displaying promising cytotoxic activity. Here, the correct NMR signal assignments for (9) are also described. Therefore, this work highlights more detailed knowledge about the P. setosum chemical profile as well as its biological potential, offering prospects for obtaining natural products with anti-leukemia capabilities.
