Aeromonas veronii strain A134 was isolated from Microcystis aeruginosa colonies collected from Lake Kinneret (Sea of Galilee), Israel. The Aeromonas culture media inhibited the growth of M. aeruginosa (strain MGK). The crude extract of a large-scale culture of A. veronii A134 was separated in a few chromatographic steps to yield three new secondary metabolites, 9-chlorolumichrome (1), veronimide (2) and veronipyrazine (3), along with a known lumichrome and several known diketopiperazines. The structures of the new compounds were established by analyses of the data from 1D and 2D NMR experiments and HRMS data of the compounds, as well as a single-crystal X-ray analysis of synthetic 1. The structure elucidation and proposed biogenesis of the new compounds are described below.

A new antiplasmodial compound, 2-(3H-diazirine-3-yl)benzaldehyde (1), has been isolated from the Papuan marine sponge Xestospongia sp. The structure elucidation of compound 1 was determined by spectroscopic evidences including UV, IR, MS, 1D and 2D-NMR analysis. Compound 1 showed moderate antiplasmodial activity against Plasmodium falciparum with IC50 value of 1.08 x 10-6 mM. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.15408/jkv.v4i1.6735

Euphorbia maculata is a medicinal plant of the Euphorbiaceae family, which can produce anti-inflammatory and cancer chemopreventive agents of triterpenoids. The present study reports on the bioactive triterpenoids of this plant. Two new lanostane-type triterpenoids, named (3S,4S,7S,9R)-4-methyl-3,7-dihydroxy-7(8→9) abeo-lanost-24(28)-en-8-one (1) and 24-hydroperoxylanost-7,25-dien-3β-ol (2), together with 15 known triterpene derivatives, were isolated from Euphorbia maculata. The structures of the new compounds were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic data (UV, MS, 1H and 13C-NMR, and 2D NMR) analysis. All tetracyclic triterpenoids (1–11) were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects in the test of TPA-induced inflammation (1 μg/ear) in mice. The triterpenes exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activities.

Three new natural compounds, striguellolide A (1), striguellol A (2) and striguellone A (6), together with three known ones, 3,4- trans-dihydroxy-6-methoxy-2,2-dimethylchroman (3), 3-hydroxy-6- methoxy-2,2-dimethylchroman-4-one (4) and 3-hydroxy-6- methoxy-2,2-dimethylchroman (5), were isolated from the agar cultures of the edible fungal strain Lentinus striguellus. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analyses, including 1D-, 2D-NMR and HR-ESI-Q-TOF-MS, and chemical reactions. Striguellone A showed cytotoxicity against HeLa cells by MTT assay and was found to be an activator of apoptosis, assessed by morphological observation and cell cycle analysis using the flow cytometer.

Two new phenolic glucosides, pipercroside A and B (1 and 2), along with 10 known compounds were isolated from the leaves of Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav. Their chemical structures were elucidated through extensive spectroscopic analyses, including 1D and 2D NMR experiments and HR-ESI-MS analysis and comparison with previously reported data. All the isolated compounds were assessed for soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitory activity. Among them, erigeside II (5) showed inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 58.5 µM.

The implementation of chemo- and bioinformatics tools is a crucial step in the design of structure-based drugs, enabling the identification of more specific and effective molecules against cancer without side effects. In this study, three new compounds were designed and synthesized with suitable absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADME-tox) properties and high affinity for the G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) binding site by in silico methods, which correlated with the growth inhibitory activity tested in a cluster of cancer cell lines. Docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations accompanied by a molecular mechanics/generalized Born surface area (MMGBSA) approach yielded the binding modes and energetic features of the proposed compounds on GPER. These in silico studies showed that the compounds reached the GPER binding site, establishing interactions with a phenylalanine cluster (F206, F208 and F278) required for GPER molecular recognition of its agonist and antagonist ligands. Finally, a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay showed growth inhibitory activity of compounds 4, 5 and 7 in three different cancer cell lines—MIA Paca-2, RCC4-VA and Hep G2—at micromolar concentrations. These new molecules with specific chemical modifications of the GPER pharmacophore open up the possibility of generating new compounds capable of reaching the GPER binding site with potential growth inhibitory activities against nonconventional GPER cell models.

AbstractA cyclic tetrapeptide, designated massiliamide, was isolated from the liquid culture of the Gram-negative bacterium Massilia albidiflava DSM 17472T. The structure was elucidated through extensive spectroscopic analysis, including HR-MS and 1D and 2D NMR experiments. The absolute configuration was determined using the Marfey´s method. Massiliamide showed potent inhibitory activity towards tyrosinase with an IC50 value of 1.15 µM and no cytotoxicity.
