Abstract
Two new canthin-6-one alkaloids, 4,9-dimethoxy-5-hydroxycanthin-6-one (1) and 9-methoxy-(R/S)-5-(1-hydroxyethyl)-canthin-6-one (2), together with fifteen known ones were isolated from the roots of Thailand Eurycoma longifolia Jack. Among the known canthin-6-one alkaloids, compounds 9 and 16 were isolated from the Eurycoma genus for the first time. Meanwhile, the nitric oxide (NO) inhibitory activities of all isolates were examined in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells at 50 µM. Moreover, a dose-dependent experiment was conducted for active compounds 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 12-17 at the concentration of 10, 25, and 50 µM, respectively. Consequently, compounds 1, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 15, as well as 17 were found to inhibit NO release from RAW264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Two new canthin-6-one alkaloids, 4,9-dimethoxy-5-hydroxycanthin-6-one (1) and 9-methoxy-(R/S)-5-(1-hydroxyethyl)-canthin-6-one (2), together with fifteen known ones were isolated from the roots of Thailand Eurycoma longifolia Jack. Among them, 1, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 15, as well as 17 were found to inhibit NO release from RAW264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner at the concentration of 10, 25, and 50 µM.

Abstract
Alzheimer disease (AD), a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, is one of the leading causes of dementia. However, there is no effective drug for this disease to date. Picrasma quassioides (D.Don) Benn, a Chinese traditional medicine, was used mainly for the treatment of inflammation, fever, microbial infection and dysentery. In this paper, we reported that the EtOAc extract of Picrasma quassioides stems showed potential neuroprotective activities in l-glutamate-stimulated PC12 and Aβ25-35-stimulated SH-SY5Y cell models, as well as improved memory and cognitive abilities in AD mice induced by amyloid-β peptide. Moreover, it was revealed that the anti-AD mechanism was related to suppressing neuroinflammatory and reducing Aβ1-42 deposition using ELISA assay kits. To clarify the active components of the EtOAc extract of Picrasma quassioides stems, a systematic phytochemistry study led to isolate and identify six β-carboline alkaloids (1-6), seven canthin-6-one alkaloids (7-13), and five quassinoids (14-18). Among them, four β-carbolines (1-3, and 6) and six canthin-6-ones (7-11, and 13) exhibited potential neuroprotective activities in vitro. Based on these date, the structure-activity relationships of alkaloids were discussed. Furthermore, molecular docking experiments showed that compounds 2 and 3 have high affinity for both of dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (DYPKIA) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE).

Abstract
A new quassinoid, designated 2'-(R)-O-acetylglaucarubinone (1), and seven known quassinoids (2-8) were isolated, using bioactivity-guided separation, from the bark of Odyendyea gabonensis (Pierre) Engler [syn. Quassia gabonensis Pierre]. The structure of 1 was determined by spectroscopic analysis and by semisynthesis from glaucarubolone. Complete (1)H and (13)C NMR assignments of compounds 1-8 were also established from detailed analysis of two-dimensional NMR spectra, and the reported configurations in odyendene (7) and odyendane (8) were corrected. Compound 1 showed potent cytotoxicity against multiple cancer cell lines. Further investigation using various types of breast and ovarian cancer cell lines suggested that 1 does not target the estrogen receptor or progesterone receptor. When tested against mammary epithelial proliferation in vivo using a Brca1/p53-deficient mice model, 1 also caused significant reduction in mammary duct branching.

Abstract
A new alkaloid, 4,5-dimethoxy-10-hydroxycanthin-6-one (1), was isolated from the stem of Picrasma quassioides Bennet (Simaroubaceae) together with four known canthin-6-one alkaloids, 8-hydroxycanthin-6-one (2), 4,5-dimethoxycanthin-6-one (3), 5-hydroxy-4-methoxycanthin-6-one (4), and 3-methylcanthin-5,6-dione (5). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. The cytotoxic activity of the canthin-6-one alkaloids was evaluated using human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (CNE2) and human liver cancer (Bel-7402) cell lines. Among these isolates, compounds 1-4 exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against CNE2 cell line.
