Saussureamines A, B, C, D, and E, new anti-ulcer principles from Chinese Saussureae radix

Five new amino acid-sesquiterpene adducts, saussureamines A, B, C, D, and E, were isolated from Chinese Saussureae Radix, the dried root of Saussurea lappa Clarke, together with a new lignan glycoside, (-)-massoniresinol 4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside. Their structures were determined on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence. Among of these compounds, saussureamines A, B, C showed anti-ulcer effect on HCl/ethanol-induced lesions in rats, and saussureamine A also exhibited an inhibitory activity on stress-induced ulcer formation in mice. During the course of these studies, facile conversion from sesquiterpene having an α-methylene γ-lactone function to amino acid-sesquiterpene adduct has been accomplished by means of Michael type addition reaction.

Alcohol absorption inhibitors from bay leaf (Laurus nobilis): Structure-requirements of sesquiterpenes for the activity

Through a bioassay-guided separation using inhibitory activity on blood ethanol elevation in oral ethanol-loaded rat, various sesquiterpenes having an α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone moiety, costunolide (1), dehydrocostus lactone (2), zaluzanin D (3), reynosin (4), santamarine (5), 3α-acetoxyeudesma-1,4(15),11(13)-trien-12,6α-olide (6) and 3-oxoeudesma-1,4,11(13)-trien-12,6α-olide (7), were isolated as the active principle from the leaves of Laurus nobilis (bay leaf, laurel). In order to characterize the structure requirement for the activity, several reduction products (2a-2d) and amino acid adducts (2e, 2f) of the α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone moiety were synthesized from 2 and the inhibitory activities of these sesquiterpenes, together with α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone (12) and its related compounds (13-16), were examined. These results indicated that the γ-butyrolactone or γ-butyrolactol moiety having α-methylene or α-methyl group was essential for the inhibitory activity on ethanol absorption. Since 1, 2 and 12 showed no significant effect on glucose absorption, these sesquiterpenes appeared to selectively inhibit ethanol absorption. In addition, the acute toxicities of 1 and 2 in a single oral administration were found to be lower than that of 12. Copyright (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Absolute stereostructures and syntheses of saussureamines A, B, C, D and E, amino acid-sesquiterpene conjugates with gastroprotective effect, from the roots of Saussurea lappa

From the methanolic extract of the dried roots of Saussurea lappa Clarke, Saussureae Radix, five amino acid-sesquiterpene conjugates, saussureamines A, B, C, D and E, were isolated together with a lignan glycoside, (-)-massoniresinol 4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside. Their stereostructures were determined on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence. In addition, saussureamines and the related amino acid-sesquiterpene conjugates were synthesized using a Michael type addition reaction of amino acid to the α-methylene-γ-lactone moiety of sesquiterpenes. Saussureamines A, B and C, costunolide and dehydrocostus lactone showed a gastroprotective effect on acidified ethanol-induced gastric mucosal lesions in rats. Saussureamines A also exhibited an inhibitory effect on gastric mucosal lesions induced by water-immersion stress in mice. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
