Two new cycloartane triterpenes, cimyunnin E (1), containing a unique oxaspiro[4.4]nonanedione moiety based on rings D and E, together with cimicifine B (2), a 25,26,27-trinortriterpene featuring a pyridine ring E, were purified from the fruits of Cimicifuga yunnanensis. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods and ECD (electronic circular dichroism calculations). Compounds 1 and 2 showed significant acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition with IC50 values of 1.58 and 3.87 μM, respectively. In addition, they noticeably enhanced the neurite outgrowth of nerve growth factor (NGF) mediated PC12 cells at a concentration of 10 μM.

Antifungal screening of small-molecule natural product libraries showed that a column fraction (CF) derived from the plant extract of Sagittaria latifolia was active against the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans. Dereplication analysis by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR) indicated the presence of new compounds in this CF. Subsequent fractionation of the plant extract resulted in the identification of two new isopimaradiene-type diterpenoids, 1 and 2. The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by chemical methods and spectroscopic analysis as isopimara-7,15-dien-19-ol 19-O-α-l-arabinofuranoside and isopimara-7,15-dien-19-ol 19-O-α-l-(5′-acetoxy)arabinofuranoside, respectively. Compound 1 exhibited IC50 values of 3.7 and 1.8 μg/mL, respectively, against C. neoformans and C. gattii. Its aglycone, isopimara-7,15-dien-19-ol (3), resulting from acid hydrolysis of 1, was also active against the two fungal pathogens, with IC50 values of 9.2 and 6.8 μg/mL, respectively. This study demonstrates that utilization of the combined LC-MS and 1H NMR analytical tools is an improved chemical screening approach for hit prioritization in natural product drug discovery.
Triterpenes from the aerial parts of Cimicifuga yunnanensis and their antiproliferative effects on p53N236S mouse embryonic fibroblasts
Nian, Yin,Zhu, Hui,Tang, Wen-Ru,Luo, Yin,Du, Jiang,Qiu, Ming-Hua
, p. 896 - 902 (2013)
Nine new triterpene derivatives, yunnanterpenes A-F (1-6), 15,16-seco-cimiterpenes A and B (7, 8), and cimilactone C (9), and 15 known analogues (10-24) were isolated from the aerial parts of Cimicifuga yunnanensis. The new structures were established using a combination of MS, NMR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. WT MEFs (wild-type mouse embryonic fibroblasts) and tumorigenic cell lines p53-/-+H-RasV12 and p53 -/-+p53N236S+H-RasV12 were used for evaluating active structures, targeting p53N236S (corresponding to p53N239S in humans) mutation. Compound 5 showed nonselective activities against these cell lines, with IC50 values of 5.8, 8.6, and 6.0 μM, respectively. Compound 4 exhibited greater selectivity against the p53 -/-+p53N236S+H-RasV12 cells (IC50 5.5 μM) than against the WT MEFs cells (IC50 14.3 μM).

Demirkiran, Ozlem
, p. 700 - 704 (2012)
Purification of n-BuOH fraction from 80% ethanol extract of Hypericum thasium Griseb. resulted in the isolation of three new compounds 3′,4,5′-trihydroxy-6-methoxy-2-O-α-l-arabinosylbenzophenone (1), 3′,4,5′,6-tetrahydroxy-2-O-α-l-arabinosylbenzophenone (2), and 3′,4-dihydroxy-5′-methoxy-2-O-α-l-arabinosyl-6-O- β-d-xylosylbenzophenone (3) along with a known flavonoid glycoside quercetin-3-O-α-l-arabinofuranoside (4). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR analysis as well as HRESIMS. The isolated compounds (1-4), as well as quercetin, and kaempferol previously isolated from EtOAc fraction were screened against MAO-A inhibitory activity. When tested against the MAO-A quercetin and kaempferol displayed IC50 values of 19.6, and 17.5 μM, respectively. The IC50 values for MAO-A inhibition by compounds (1-4) were 310.3, 111.2, 726.0, and 534.1 μM, respectively. Standard inhibitor (clorgyline) exhibited MAO-A inhibition with an IC50 value of 0.5 μM.

The chemical investigation of the root barks leaves and stem barks of Brucea antidysenterica J. F. Mill. (Simaroubaceae) led to the isolation of a new pregnane glycoside, named Bruceadysentoside A or 3-O-β-L-arabinopyranosyl-pregn-5-en-20-one (1) together with seventeen known compounds. Their structures were established from spectral data, mainly HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR and by comparison with literature data. Compounds 1, 2, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 13 were tested in vitro for their effects on the viability of two different human cancer cell lines, namely prostate PC-3 adenocarcinoma cells and colorectal HT-29 adenocarcinoma cells. No substantial activities were recorded for 2, 10, 12 and 13 (up to 10 μM concentration). 1, 5 and 8 did not show strong anti-proliferative effects up to 100 μM, however, 6 exhibited a stronger anti-proliferative effect with IC50 values of ~ 100 μM against PC-3 and ~ 200 μM against HT-29.

, p. 450 - 454 (1985)
Fractionation of the polysaccharide complex of the inflorescences of pineapple weed has given a galacturonan and a pectic acid.The structures of the galacturonan and pectic acid have been studied by the methods of enzymatic hydrolysis, periodate oxidation, and exhaustive methylation.It has been established that the galacturonan is a linear polysaccharide consisting of D-galacturonic acid residues in the pyranose form with α-1->4-bonds.The main polysaccharide chain of the pectic acid consists of D-galacturonic acid residues in the pyranose form, D-galactose, L-arabinose, and D-xylose residues are covalently bound to carbon atoms 2 or 3 of the main chain of the polysaccharide.
