An alternative procedure for isolation of 4β-phorbol from seeds of Croton tiglium has been developed, and an artifact containing a furan ring formed by rearrangement of 12,13,20-O-triacylated phorbol derivatives into (6bS,7R,8R,8aS)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-5,7,9,9-tetramethyl-3,7,8,9,9a,9b-hexahydrocyclopropa[3′,4′]benzo[1′,2′:3,4]cyclohepta[1,2-b]furan-6b,8,8a-triol (8a) has been characterized. A mechanism involving an oxidative rearrangement and a decarboxylation for formation of the artifact is proposed.
Nineteen-step total synthesis of (+)-phorbol

Phorbol, the flagship member of the tigliane diterpene family, has been known for over 80 years and has attracted attention from many chemists and biologists owing to its intriguing chemical structure and the medicinal potential of phorbol esters. Access to useful quantities of phorbol and related analogues has relied on isolation from natural sources and semisynthesis. Despite efforts spanning 40 years, chemical synthesis has been unable to compete with these strategies, owing to its complexity and unusual placement of oxygen atoms. Purely synthetic enantiopure phorbol has remained elusive, and biological synthesis has not led to even the simplest members of this terpene family. Recently, the chemical syntheses of eudesmanes, germacrenes, taxanes and ingenanes have all benefited from a strategy inspired by the logic of two-phase terpene biosynthesis in which powerful C-C bond constructions and C-H bond oxidations go hand in hand. Here we implement a two-phase terpene synthesis strategy to achieve enantiospecific total synthesis of (+)-phorbol in only 19 steps from the abundant monoterpene (+)-3-carene. The purpose of this synthesis route is not to displace isolation or semisynthesis as a means of generating the natural product per se, but rather to enable access to analogues containing unique placements of oxygen atoms that are otherwise inaccessible.

Fifteen compounds, including five new phorbol esters (1-5) and ten known metabolites were isolated from the leaves of Croton tiglium. The structures of new compounds 1-5 were determined by comprehensive analysis of the HRESIMS, IR, 1D and 2D NMR spectral

Methods for the selective expansion of lymphocytes by in vitro cultivation
-
, (2008/06/13)
The invention is directed to methods for the production of selected populations of lymphocytes. Lymphocytes produced can be isolated and purified using well known and established procedures to provide a consistent lymphocyte source which one of ordinary skill in the art can modify to provide an appropriate type or an optimal level of a desired lymphocyte. The availability of such cell populations allows for not only for the complete reconstitution of the depleted, defective or missing lymphocyte population in a patient, but also provides the flexibility of having sufficient cells to permit multiple or cyclic treatments. These methods for expanding target cell populations are broadly applicable to the selective expansion of several types of lymphocytes and are demonstrated to maintain phenotype as well as antigen specificity.
Phorbol derivatives having antivirus activity
-
, (2008/06/13)
An antiviral agent comprising as an active ingredient a phorbol derivative of formula (I): (wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5, independently one another, represent a hydrogen atom, an aliphatic carboxylic acid residue, or an aromatic carboxylic acid residue) having a ratio r=CC0/IC100, i.e., ratio of concentration CC0at which survival of MT-4 cells is decreased upon cell proliferation tests to concentration IC100at which HIV-1-induced cytopathic effect (CPE) on MT-4 cells is inhibited by 100%, of 2 or more and having a protein kinase C(PKC) activation of 30% or less at a concentration of 10 ng/mL. The agent is useful as an anti-HIV agent.
Peptide fragments of tissue plasminogen activator
-
, (2008/06/13)
Novel peptide fragments of tissue plasminogen activator are described which have activity for inhibiting (a) the binding of tPA to human endothelial cells, and (b) the inactivation of tPA by plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). Six peptides or peptide amides with these activities have the sequences, numbered according to the native protein: tPA (31-55), tPA (81-105), tPA (181-205), tPA (301-325), tPA (451-475, and tPA (531-555). It is hoped that small, synthesizeable molecules which prevent the inactivation of tPA by PAI-1 may provide a means for improving the efficacy of therapeutically administered tPA or for reducing the tendency of patients with elevated plasma PAI-1 concentrations to form fibrin clots.
