[PMID: 37754983 PMCID: PMC10532693 DOI: 10.3390/jof9090875] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Seven new polyketides named fusarisolins F-K (1-6) and fusarin I (7) were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Fusarium solani 8388, together with the known anhydrojavanicin (8), 5-deoxybostry coidin (9), and scytalol A (10). Their structures were established by comprehensive spectroscopic data analyses, and by comparison of the 1H and 13C NMR data with those reported in literature. Fusarisolin F (1) contained both a dichlorobenzene group and an ethylene oxide unit, which was rare in nature. In the bioassays, fusarisolin I (4), fusarisolin J (5), and 5-deoxybostry coidin (9) exhibited obvious antibacterial activities against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus n315 with MIC values of 3, 3, and 6 μg/mL, respectively. Fusarisolin H (3) and fusarisolin J (5) showed inhibitory effects against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus NCTC 10442 with the same MIC value of 6 μg/mL. With the exception of 5, all other compounds did not show or showed weak cytotoxicities against HeLa, A549, and KB cells; while fusarisolin J (5) demonstrated moderate cytotoxicities against the three human cancer cell lines with CC50 values between 9.21 and 14.02 μM.

Secondary metabolites related to the resistance of Psidium spp. against the nematode Meloidogyneenterolobii. Heliyon 2023; 9:e17778. [PMID: 37539183 PMCID: PMC10395151 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e17778] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2023] [Revised: 06/15/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The guava tree (Psidium guajava) is a tropical species native to South America and is recognized as the 11th most economically important fruit tree in Brazil. However, the presence of the nematode Meloidogyne enterolobii and the fungus Fusarium solani in the roots of guava plants leads to the development of root galls, causing significant damage. In contrast, the species P. guineense and P. cattleianum have been identified as resistant and immune to the nematode, respectively. In this study, the researchers aimed to compare the metabolomic profiles of infected and uninfected roots of P. guajava, P. cattleianum, and P. guineense using mass spectrometry coupled with liquid chromatography (LC-MS). The goal was to identify secondary metabolites that could potentially be utilized as biochemical resources for nematode control. The findings of the study demonstrated that the plant metabolism of all three species undergoes alterations in response to the phytopathogen inoculation. By employing molecular networks, the researchers identified that the secondary metabolites affected by the infection, whether produced or suppressed, are primarily of a polar chemical nature. Further analysis of the database confirmed the polar nature of the regulated substances after infection, specifically hydrolysable tannins and lignans in P. guineense and P. cattleianum. Interestingly, a group of non-polar substances belonging to the terpene class was also identified in the resistant and immune species. This suggests that these terpenes may act as inhibitors of M. enterolobii, working as repellents or as molecules that can reduce oxidative stress during the infection process, thus enhancing the guava resistance to the nematode. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the metabolic alterations occurring in different Psidium spp. in response to M. enterolobii infection. The identification of specific secondary metabolites, particularly terpenes, opens up new possibilities for developing effective strategies to control the nematode and enhance guava resistance.

Abstract
Bulbus eleutherinis is a classical traditional Dai medicine, and has been widely used in clinical treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD) in Yunnan, China. Naphthoquinone, as the main active compound in Bulbus eleutherinis in treating CHD, mainly contain isoeleutherin, eleutherin, and eleutherol. This study aimed to investigate the in vivo parameters of isoeleutherin, eleutherin, and eleutherol. In this work, male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were treated with the three compounds by oral administration, and then blood and tissue samples were collected. A novel UPLC-MS/MS (ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry) method has been developed to determine the absolute oral bioavailability, and the tissue distribution profile of the compounds. Acetonitrile and 0.1% (v/v) solution of formic acid were selected as the mobile phase of the chromatogram. C18 column was employed. Betamethasone was used as an internal standard in the method. The detection was performed with a multireaction monitor of scan type in positive ion mode by MS/MS. Our data showed linearity of the method with r over 0.9983. Lower limits of quantification of isoeleutherin, eleutherin, and eleutherol were 1.00, 3.84, and 0.498 ng/mL, respectively. The overall precision of the compounds was less than 12.68%, recoveries ranged from 85.44 to 103.83%, and the accuracy of the compounds in plasma was between 91.56 and 110.75%. The stability assay showed that they were stable (87.83–114.62%) under different conditions in plasma. For oral administration, the half-lives of isoeleutherin, eleutherin, and eleutherol was 6.11, 7.30, and 3.07 hours, respectively. The absolute oral bioavailabilities were 5.38, 4.64, and 2.47%, respectively. Moreover, the three components had the highest distribution in small intestine. In conclusion, the established method was successfully applied to the determination of the in vivo parameters of the three components in SD rats. This work provides a reference for the development of new drugs of Bulbus eleutherinis in the future.

Abstract
This study investigated the influence of Eleutherine bulbosa (Mill.) Urb. on the immune responses, bacterial population in the intestines, and resistance of white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, against infection with Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Shrimp were fed with three dosages of powder, at 6.25 g kg-1 (P6.25), 12.5 g kg-1 (P12.5), and 25 g kg-1 (P25). One dosage of the crude extract was provided, 1.25 g kg-1 (E1.25), and the controls without administration of E. bulbosa consisted of a positive control (PC) and a negative control (NC). Feed supplementation was carried out for 30 days; then shrimp from all treatments were challenged by intramuscular injection with V. parahaemolyticus (106 cfu/mL), except for the NC. The results showed that supplementation with the powder and extract of E. bulbosa for 30 days resulted in significantly higher (P < 0.05) immune responses (total hemocyte count (THC), phenoloxidase activity (PO), respiratory bursts (RBs)), gene expression (prophenoloxidase (proPO), lipopolysaccharide- and β-1,3-glucan-binding protein (LGBP)), and total bacterial count (TBC) compared to PC/NC. In post challenge testing, there were significantly higher levels for THC, PO, RBs, proPO, LGBP, and PE (peroxinetin), and the treatments were able to suppress V. parahaemolyticus in the intestines, hepatopancreas, and muscles and to reduce damage to the muscles and hepatopancreas. The survival rate with P12.5 was significantly higher compared to the other treatments. It was concluded that the shrimp receiving supplementation with the powder and extract of E. bulbosa had increased immunity and resistance against V. parahaemolyticus infection, with the best dosage being the P12.5 treatment.

Abstract
CONTEXT Cipura paludosa Aubl. (Iridaceae) is widely used in folk medicine to treat several ailments. Experimental studies have confirmed its anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, and neuroprotective effects. OBJECTIVE This study evaluates the possible antiproliferative potential of the crude methanol extract and three isolated compounds from the bulbs of C. paludosa. MATERIALS AND METHODS Phytochemical analysis was carried out by conventional chromatographic techniques, and the resulting compounds were identified by NMR (1)H and (13)C. The antiproliferative activity was analysed using the sulforhodamine B assay. RESULTS Crude methanol extract of C. paludosa bulbs showed GI50 values of between 1.6 and 30.8 μg/mL. The naphthoquinone derivatives (eleutherine, isoeleutherine, and eleutherol) isolated from the bulbs of C. paludosa exhibited promising cytotoxicity against several human tumour cell lines, especially the two main compounds, eleutherine and isoeleutherine, against glioma and breast cancer cell lines, with TGI values of between 2.6 and 13.8 μg/mL. CONCLUSION Cipura paludosa bulbs produce active principles with relevant antiproliferative potential, such as naphthoquinone derivatives, identified as eleutherine, isoeleutherine, and eleutherol. This is the first report indicating C. paludosa with antiproliferative potential.
