A new coumarin derivative, coumacasia (1) and eight known compounds, coumarin (2), cinnamaldehyde (3), 2-methoxycinnamaldehyde (4), 2-hydroxycinnamaldehyde (5), coniferaldehyde (6), cinnamic acid (7), 2-hydroxycinnamic acid (8), and cinnamic alcohol (9), were isolated from the methanol extract of Cinnamomum cassia. Their structures were elucidated by spectral data and by comparison with the reported literature. The cytotoxic activities of compounds 1-9 were evaluated with two human cancer cell lines, HL-60 and A-549. Compound 1 showed growth inhibitory effects in the HL-60 and A-549 cell lines with IC50 values of 8.2 ± 0.5 and 11.3 ±1.1 μM, respectively. Compounds 3-6, and 8 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 20.5 to 65.6 μM.

One new biscembranoid, petronigrione (1), and five known compounds, methyl tortuoate B (2), lobophytone U (3), lobophytone H (4), (24 S)-ergostane 3β,5α,6β,25tetraol-25-monoacetate (5), and (24 S)-ergostane-1β,3β,5α,6β,25-pentaol-25-monoacetate (6), were isolated from the methanol extract of the marine sponge Petrosia nigricans. Their structures were established on the basis of spectral and chemical evidence. The cytotoxicity of all compounds was evaluated by MTT assay on four human cancer cell lines, HepG2, KB, LU-1, and MCF-7. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited moderate cytotoxic activities on the four human cancer cell lines with IC50 values ranging of 20.7 - 28.9 μg/mL.

A new ent-kaurane glycoside, annoglabasin H (1), and three known ent-kauranes, annoglabasin E (2), annoglabasin B (3), and 19-nor- ent-kaurent-4-ol-17-oic acid (4) were isolated from the fruits of Annona glabra. Their structures were determined by the combination of spectroscopic and chemical methods, including 1D- and 2D-NMR spectroscopy, as well as by comparison with the NMR data reported in the literature. The cytotoxic activities of these compounds were evaluated on four human cancer cell lines, LU-1, MCF-7, SK-Mel2, and KB. Compound 1 exhibited significant cytotoxic activity on all tested human cancer cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 3.7 to 4.6 μM.

A series of benzo [d] [1,3] azoles 2-substituted with benzyl- and allyl-sulfanyl groups were synthesized, and their cytotoxic activities were in vitro evaluated against a panel of six human cancer cell lines. The results showed that compounds BTA-1 and BMZ-2 have the best inhibitory effects, compound BMZ-2 being comparable in some cases with the reference drug tamoxifen and exhibiting a low cytotoxic effect against healthy cells. In silico molecular coupling studies at the tamoxifen binding site of ERα and GPER receptors revealed affinity and the possible mode of interaction of both compounds BTA-1 and BMZ-2.

AbstractSix new neo-clerodane diterpenoids (1–6), scutebatas X – Z, A1-C1, along with twelve known ones (7–18) were obtained via the phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of Scutellaria barbata. Their structures were established by detailed spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of 1 and 2, as the representative members of this type, were identified based on a circular dichroic exciton chirality method. Moreover, in vitro cytotoxicity of compounds 1–6 were evaluated against three human cancer cell lines (SGC-7901, MCF-7, and A-549) using the MTT method. Compound 6 showed cytotoxic activities against all the three cell lines with IC50 values of 17.9, 29.9, and 35.7 µM, respectively.

Nine secondary metabolites, including a new cycloartane glucoside, rhizostyloside (1), were isolated from a methanol extract of Rhizophora stylosa leaves through several chromatographic experiments. The structures of the compounds were determined on the basis of NMR spectroscopic (1H and 13C NMR, HSQC, HMBC, 1H-1H COSY, NOESY) and HR-ESI-MS data and by comparison with literature values. Compound 1 exhibited significant cytotoxicity against three human cancer cell lines: KB (epidermoid carcinoma), LU-1 (lung adenocarcinoma), and SK-Mel-2 (melanoma). In addition, 1 strongly activated caspase-3/7 in LU-1 cells.
