To obtain diterpene glycosides from an aqueous extract of the aerial parts of Isodon henryi and further investigate their cytotoxicities, in this study, a total of seven compounds were isolated, including six ent-kaurane diterpene glycosides (1–6) and one diterpene aglycon (7). Among the seven ent-kaurane diterpenes obtained, four were novel compounds, including ent-7,20-epoxy- kaur-16-en-1α,6β,7β,15β-tetrahydroxyl-11-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (1), ent-7,20-epoxy-kaur-16-en- 6β,7β,14β,15β-tetrahydroxyl-1-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (2), ent-7,20-epoxy-kaur-16-en-6β,7β,15β- trihydroxyl-1-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (3), and ent-7,20-epoxy-kaur-16-en-7β,11β,14α,15β-tetrahydr- oxyl-6-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (4), and three were isolated from this plant for the first time (5–7). Their structures were elucidated by utilizing spectroscopic methods and electronic circular dichroism analyses. Furthermore, the cytotoxicities of all seven compounds were investigated in four human cancer cell lines, including A2780, BGC-823, HCT-116, and HepG2. The IC50 values of these diterpenes ranged from 0.18 to 2.44 mM in the tested cell lines. In addition, the structure–cytotoxicity relationship of diterpene glycosides was also evaluated to study the effect of glycosylation on the cytotoxicity of diterpene compounds.

AbstractThree new bisindole alkaloids, 3′-(2-oxopropyl)-19,20-dihydrotabernamine (1), 3′-(2-oxopropyl)-ervahanine B (2), 19,20-dihydrovobparicine (3), and 20 known compounds were isolated from the aerial parts of Tabernaemontana bufalina. The structures of these alkaloids were elucidated using spectroscopic methods. The absolute configurations of 1–3 were determined by the circular dichroic exciton chirality method. Compounds 1–23 were screened for their cytotoxicity against two human cancer cell lines, A-549 and MCF-7. Ten compounds (1–3, 10, 14, 16, 17, 19, 22, and 23) exhibited inhibitory effects against the two human cancer cells with IC50 values of 1.19 ~ 6.13 µM.

New pyridine, pyrazoloyridine, and furopyridine derivatives substituted with naphthyl and thienyl moieties were designed and synthesized starting from 6-(naphthalen-2-yl)-2-oxo-4-(thiophen-2-yl)-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (1). The chloro, methoxy, cholroacetoxy, imidazolyl, azide, and arylamino derivatives were prepared to obtain the pyridine-−C2 functionalized derivatives. The derived pyrazolpyridine-N-glycosides were synthesized via heterocyclization of the C2-thioxopyridine derivative followed by glycosylation using glucose and galactose. The furopyridine derivative 14 and the tricyclic pyrido[3′,2′:4,5]furo[3,2-d]pyrimidine 15 were prepared via heterocyclization of the ester derivative followed by a reaction with formamide. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their ability to in vitro inhibit the CDK2 enzyme. In addition, the cytotoxicity of the compounds was tested against four different human cancer cell lines (HCT-116, MCF-7, HepG2, and A549). The CDK2/cyclin A2 enzyme inhibitory results revealed that pyridone 1, 2-chloro-6-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)nicotinonitrile (4), 6-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-3-amine (8), S-(3-cyano-6-(naphthaen-2-yl)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)pyridin-2-yl) 2-chloroethanethioate (11), and ethyl 3-amino-6-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)furo[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate (14) are among the most active inhibitors with IC50 values of 0.57, 0.24, 0.65, 0.50, and 0.93 µM, respectively, compared to roscovitine (IC50 0.394 μM). Most compounds showed significant inhibition on different human cancer cell lines (HCT-116, MCF-7, HepG2, and A549) with IC50 ranges of 31.3–49.0, 19.3–55.5, 22.7–44.8, and 36.8–70.7 μM, respectively compared to doxorubicin (IC50 40.0, 64.8, 24.7 and 58.1 µM, respectively). Furthermore, a molecular docking study suggests that most of the target compounds have a similar binding mode as a reference compound in the active site of the CDK2 enzyme. The structural requirements controlling the CDK2 inhibitory activity were determined through the generation of a statistically significant 2D-QSAR model.

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.

Abstract Seven flavonoids isolated from chloroform , ethyl acetate and butanol extracts, obtained from the aerial parts of Retama sphaerocarpa, have been assessed for cytotoxic activity against three human cancer cell lines: TK-10 (renal adenocarcinom a), MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinom a) and UACC-62 (m elanom a), using the SRB assay. All of them , extracts and flavonoids, were actives in, at least, one of the three cell lines at the recom m ended N ational C ancer Institute doses. They produce a d ose-dependent inhibition of cell grow th at concentrations in the 10-6-10-4 ᴍ and 25 -250 μg/ml range for the flavonoids and extracts respectively, being the flavonol rhamnazin the most cytotoxic.

Phytochemical investigation of Fissistigma cupreonitens (Annonaceae) led to the isolation of 34 compounds. The chemical structures of all compounds were determined by spectroscopic methods. Among the isolates, compounds 20–27 and 31–34 were reported from this genus for the first time. From the results of the cytotoxicity assay against three human cancer cell lines (NCI-H226, NPC-TW01, and Jurkat E6–1), oxoaporphine compounds oxoxylopine (1), oxocrebanine (3), kuafumine (4) and lysicamine (5), and the flavonoid adunctin E (26) displayed significant cytotoxicity against NCI-H226 cell line, with IC50 values of 8.45, 8.10, 8.54, 12.83 and 12.00 μM, respectively, in comparison with the standard drug, cisplatin with IC50 of 13.37 μM.

Aims: Apocynaceae family is the 5th largest medicinal plant family rich in potent secondary metabolites such as Alkaloids, Cardiac glycosides,Terpenoids, irridoid/secoirridoids, flavonoids and Phenolic contents. The present study was aimed to evaluate and compare in-vitroantiproliferative activity of three plants of this family.Methods: Aerial parts of Carissa carandas Linn. (C), Nerium indicum Mill. (N) and Wrightia tinctoria RBr. (W), were collected and dried. Thepowdered drugs were extracted in Ethanol (1), 60% Ethanol (2) and Water (3). Estimation of Phytoconstituents performed using standardmethods. In-vitro cytotoxic activity performed using Sulphorhodamine B (SRB) assay in HepG2, HT29 and SKOV3 human cancer cell lines takingAdriamycin (ADR) as standard. For extracts, GI50 value ≤ 20μg/ml was considered to demonstrate activity.Results: For HepG2 cell line graphs and photomicrographs showed GI50 value as ADR=39.79, C1=2.5, N2=66.3, N3<10 and C2=C3= N1=W1-3>80. Also TGI for C1>80. The extracts, C1, C2, N1, N2, and N3 were found to possess activity against HepG2.These extracts were screened onHT 29 and SKOV3cell lines. The GI50 value observed was<10 for C1, N2, N3 and ADR in HT 29 and <10 for N3 and ADR in SK OV3 cell lines.Thus it was found that aqueous extract of Nerium indicum (N3) and Ethanolic extract of Carissa carandas (C1) were most cytotoxic extractsagainst all three cell lines.Conclusions: our study establishes that Apocynaceae family plants could be an important anticancer lead and could serve as Botanical drug forneoplasia.Keywords: Apocynaceae, SRB Assay, Phytoconstituents, Anticancer drug screening models, Hep G2, HT 29, SK-OV3, HCC.
