Two new oleanane-type triterpenoid saponins (1 and 2) were isolated from the methanolyzed total saponins of the seeds of Momordica cochinchinensis (Lour.) Spreng, together with 16 known compounds (3—18). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of detailed spectroscopic, including ID and 2D NMR, mass spectrometric, methanolysis and LC-MS analysis. All the isolates were tested for their cytotoxic activities against five human cancer cell lines (HL-60, SMMC-7721, PANC-1, A-549, and SW-480) and the glucose uptake activity. The known compound 6 exhibited toxic effects against HL-60 with an IC50 value of 18.1 μM, while 10 showed cytotoxicity against SMMC-7721 and A-549 cell lines, with IC50 values of 34.4 and 32.8 μM, respectively. In addition, the new compound 2 showed glucose uptake activity with a glucose consumption value of 0.29 μM at 10 μM concentration.

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.

Three new oleanane saponins (1–3), together with four known ones (4–7), were isolated from the aerial parts of Polyscias guilfoylei. Their structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR experiments, including 1D TOCSY, DQF-COSY, ROESY, HSQC, and HMBC spectroscopy, as well as ESIMS analysis. The antiproliferative activity of all compounds was evaluated using three murine and human cancer cell lines; J774.A1, HEK-293, and WEHI-164. All the compounds were inactive except for 3β- O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-L-arabinopyranosyl]-echinocystic acid 28-[ O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6) O-β-D-glucopyranosyl] ester (3), which was active against all the cell lines.

Methanol (MeOH), dichloromethane (DCM) and 80% MeOH extractions of fourteen medicinal plants of the families Solanaceae and Lamiaceae collected from different area of Iran were tested for their cytotoxic potential against MOLT-4 human cancer cell lines. Cytotoxicity of the tested plants indicated that 11 plants had one or two active extracts (IC50 ≤50): MeOH extracts of the shoots of Thymus trautvetteri, Solanum luteum and stems of Lycium shawii; DCM extracts of the shoots of Thymus kotschyanus, Salvia persepolitana, Ballota aucheri, Nepeta glomerulosa, Hyoscyamus tenuicaulis, Salvia lachnocalyx, Salvia sharifii as well as the stems of Salvia verticillata and the roots of Salvia multicaulis and S. lachnocalyx; 80% MeOH extracts of the shoots of T. trautvetteri, S. luteum and the stems of L. shawii. The DCM extract of the aerial parts of S. lachnocalyx as one of the most active species was subjected to the cytotoxic bioassay-guided fractionation and purification using combination of chromatography methods. The bioassay-guided fractionation of DCM extract of the shoots of S. lachnocalyx led to the isolation of two cytotoxic compounds: (2 Z,6 Z,10 Z,14 E)-geranylfarnesol (1), a novel natural product, and spathulenol (2). Both of the isolated compounds, especially 1 (IC50 range: 9.6 −20.2 μg/mL), showed good cytotoxic effects against 3 human cancer cell lines, MOLT-4, MCF-7 and HT-29.

We investigated the cytotoxic activities of crocin and crocetin, 2 major carotenoids isolated from the stigma of Crocus sativus (saffron), on 5 human cancer cell lines and proposed their possible anticancer mechanisms. Crocetin, a glycosylated carotenoid, showed approximately 5- to 18-fold higher cytotoxicity than crocin, a carboxylic carotenoid (IC50 of 0.16–0.61 mmol/L for crocetin vs. 2.0–5.5 mmol/L for crocin). This suggests that structural differences account for the different efficacies between them. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis showed that crocetin induced a significant level of cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in HeLa cells, whereas crocin did not. This ROS induction supported the cytotoxicity of crocetin, but not of crocin. A significant activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) was observed in both HeLa cells treated with crocin and crocetin: a 3.0-fold increase by 1 mmol/L crocetin and a 1.6-fold increase by 0.8 mmol/L crocin compared to the control. Furthermore, both crocetin and crocin reduced the protein expression of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), one of the targets for chemoprevention in cancer cells, by 34.2% and 10.5%, respectively, compared to the control in HeLa cells. These findings suggest that crocetin and crocin have different mechanisms for their observed cytotoxicity in cancer cell lines.
