Abstract
As our ongoing interest to search bioactive dimeric sesquiterpenes from the genus Vladimiria (Asteraceae), the plant of Vladimiria souliei was studied. Based on the repetitive chromatographic fractionation, a chemical investigation on the roots of Vladimiria souliei led to the isolation and the identification of four previously undescribed sesquiterpene dimers, vlasouliodes A-D (1-4). Their chemical structures were elucidated by comprehensive analysis of spectroscopic data, including HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data. The absolute configurations of them were unambiguously established by the experimental and calculated ECD data. In the in vitro biological activity evaluation, 1 and 3 displayed pronounced inhibitory activity against human breast adenocarcinoma cell lines (MCF-7) with IC50 values of 17.12 ± 0.42 μM and 13.12 ± 0.10 μM, respectively. Additionally, treatment with 1 and 3 induced cell apoptosis in MCF-7 cells, down-regulated the expression of Caspase-3 and up-regulated the expression of Cleaved-caspase-3.

Abstract
In this study, three new germacranolide sesquiterpenes (1-3), together with six related known analogues (4-9) were isolated from the whole plant of Carpesium cernuum. Their structures were established by a combination of extensive NMR spectroscopic analysis, HR-ESIMS data, and ECD calculations. The anti-leukemia activities of all compounds towards three cell lines (HEL, KG-1a, and K562) were evaluated in vitro. Compounds 1-3 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 1.59 to 5.47 μmol·L-1. Mechanistic studies indicated that 2 induced apoptosis by decreasing anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and activating the caspase family in K562 cells. These results suggest that compound 2 is a potential anti-leukemia agent.

Antiprostate Cancer Activity of Ineupatolide Isolated from Carpesium cernuum L. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:5515961. [PMID: 33996996 PMCID: PMC8105106 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5515961] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2021] [Revised: 03/27/2021] [Accepted: 04/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Objective The aim of the study was to investigate the antiprostate cancer effects and mechanism of ineupatolide (T-21), a natural product isolated from the Compositae plant Carpesium cernuum L., on PC-3 human prostate cancer cells. Methods The effect of T-21 on the proliferation of PC-3 cells was detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, cell migration, and invasion experiments; the morphology of cell apoptosis was observed by Hoechst-propidium iodide staining; the effects of T-21 on PC-3 cell apoptosis and the cell cycle were evaluated by flow cytometry; and the effect of T-21 on the expression levels of phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-AKT), AKT, X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (xlAP), procaspase-3, and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) in PC-3 cells was measured by western blotting. Results T-21 significantly inhibited the proliferation of cells, and its half-maximal inhibitory concentrations at 12, 24, and 48 h were 38.46 ± 1.01, 24.63 ± 0.70, and 7.36 ± 0.58 μM, respectively. T-21 may promote cell apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner and block the cell cycle in the G2 and S phases. In addition, T-21 significantly reduced the protein expression levels of p-AKT, AKT, xlAP, procaspase-3, and PARP. Conclusion T-21 exhibits antiproliferation effects on PC-3 cells by promoting apoptosis and arresting the cell cycle in the G2 and S phases. The possible mechanism underlying its potential therapeutic effects against prostate cancer is related to the AKT/xlAP pathway.

Abstract
In this study, we present a new hybrid functional denoted as xOPBE, which is optimized at the 6-311+G(2d,p) basis set and designed with a specific aim of providing accurate 13C chemical shifts. By mixing the Hartree-Fock exchange into the OPBE functional, xOPBE provides a significantly improved overall performance as compared to its parent OPBE functional, while OPBE was shown previously as an excellent functional for 13C chemical shifts. Even in the case of the 1-adamantyl cation, for which OPBE completely fails in reproducing the experimental results, xOPBE still performs very well with similar accuracy as the standard CCSD(T) method with a large basis set. Our results also demonstrate that xOPBE not only can improve quantitatively the description of the correct assignments given by OPBE but also can revert OPBE's incorrect assignments qualitatively. Thus, we would like to recommend the use of xOPBE for routine evaluations of 13C chemical shifts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer is one of the most lethal cancers in women when it reaches the metastatic stage. The plant Carpesium cernuum has been used as an anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and detoxifying agent in Chinese folk medicine. However, the inhibitory activity and molecular mechanisms of Carpesium cernuum in breast cancer cells have not been investigated. METHODS RNA sequencing experiments were performed to elucidate the cellular pathways affected by Carpesium cernuum extract (CCE). Cell viability and EdU incorporation assays were conducted to determine the effect of CCE on cell proliferation. The inhibitory effects of CCE on the expression levels of target genes were confirmed by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Cell migration and invasion were analysed with transwell chamber assays. RESULTS Proliferation assays indicated that CCE inhibited cell proliferation in multiple cancer cell lines and the IC50 value of CCE was the smallest in MDA-MB-231 cells. Transcriptome analysis showed that CCE significantly affected the cell adhesion pathway. Further experiments revealed that CCE suppressed cell migration and invasion. The inhibitory effect on migration was likely mediated by targeting TIMP1, MMP9, CD44 and COL4A2. The main active components of CCE were isolated, and CCE-derived sesquiterpene lactone substances could reproduce the inhibitory effect of CCE on cell migration and invasion. CONCLUSIONS Overall, both molecular and phenotypic assays showed that CCE has potential in the treatment of breast cancer, especially for the treatment of breast cancer metastasis. CCE-derived sesquiterpene lactone substances are the foundation for the tumor inhibitory effect of CCE.

Abstract
Six new highly oxygenated (2–7) and one known (1) germacranolides were isolated from the whole plant of Carpesium divaricatum. The planar structures and relative configurations of the new compounds were determined by detailed spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of 1 and 3 were established by circular dichroism (CD) and X-ray crystallographic analyses, and the stereochemistry of the new compounds 2 and 4–6 were determined by similar CD data to 1 and 3, respectively. All isolates were evaluated for their antiproliferative activities against three human tumor cell lines, and compounds 3 and 6 show antiproliferative activities against HeLa and Hep G2 cells with IC50 values of 4.13–8.37 μM. Intensive mechanism study showed that 3 caused cell-cycle arrest at the S/G2 phase and induced apoptosis in Hep G2 cells through a mitochondria-related pathway. A new compound from Carpesium divaricatum has the potential to treat liver cancer through apoptosis induction and cell cycle arrest.![]()

Sci Rep 2018; 8:12418. [PMID: 30127485 PMCID: PMC6102216 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-30782-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2017] [Accepted: 04/25/2018] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Five sets of germacrane isomers (1/8/17, 2/7/10/11/13/16/18, 3/4/5/14/20, 6/12/15, and 9/19) with different skeletal types, including seven new ones (1-3, 8-9, and 15-16) were isolated from the whole plant of Carpesium divaricatum. Among them, there are six pairs of stereoisomers (1/8, 2/13, 4/14, 6/12, 7/11 and 10/11). The planar structures and relative configurations of the new compounds were elucidated by detailed spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of 4, 10, 11, and 17 were established by circular dichroism (CD) spectra and X-ray crystallographic analyses, and the stereochemistry of the new compounds 1-3, 8-9, and 15-16 were determined by similar CD spectra with 4, 10, 11, and 17, respectively. The confusion in the literature about subtypes I and II of germacranolides was clarified in this paper. The NMR data of 10-11, and the absolute configurations of the known compounds 4-6, 13-14, and 17-20 were reported for the first time. Compounds 13, 17, and 18 showed cytotoxicity against human cervical (HeLa), colon (LoVo) and stomach cancer (BGC-823) cell lines with IC50 values in the range 4.72-13.68 μM compared with the control cis-platin (7.90-15.34 μM).
