Terpenoids from Calocedrus formosana

A novel diterpene, 1-oxohinokiol was isolated from the acetone extract of the wood of C. formosana. Four novel sesquiterpenes, 5-methyl-8-isopropyl-2-naphthalenecarboxaldehyde, methyl 5-methyl-8-isopropyl-2-naphthalenecarboxylate and their 3,4-dihydro analogues were also isolated. The structural assignments were based on the spectroscopic analysis and confirmed by chemical correlation.     

Sesquiterpenes and alkaloids from Scorodocarpus borneensis

A new sesquiterpene, scodopin, and a mixture of three tryptamine-type alkaloids, scorodocarpines A-C, were isolated from the fruits of Scorodocarpus borneensis, together with a known hemisynthetic sesquiterpene, cadalene-beta-carboxylic acid, which was isolated from the bark. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by interpretation of spectral data, especially tandem mass spectrometry for the alkaloid mixture.     

Cytotoxic meroterpenoids from the macroalga Cystoseira abies-marina

Two new meronorsesquiterpenes (cystoazorones A and B) and two new meroditerpenes (cystoazorols A and B), along with benzoic acid were isolated from the brown macroalga Cystoseira abies-marina. The structures of the new compounds were established by 1D and 2D NMR as well as HRMS spectral analysis. The in vitro cytotoxicity and antioxidant activity of the isolated compounds were also evaluated. Cystoazorones A and B, and cystoazorol A exhibited in vitro growth inhibitory activity against HeLa cells. The HeLa cell line in log phase was found to be more sensitive to cystoazorol A than when it was in lag phase. Cystoazorol A also showed a selectivity index higher than taxol, which was used as a positive control. Cystoazorols A and B were found to be the strongest antioxidants among the compounds tested.     

Characterization of Certain Gram-Negative Bacteria from Surface Waters

Cultures of gram-negative bacteria with oxidative glucose metabolism were isolated from surface waters by a highly selective technique, and were classified into 11 types. The predominant type, making up about 50% of the isolated cultures, was cytochrome oxidase-positive, produced fluorescent pigment, and failed to grow at 37 C. A similar type, which differed in being cytochrome oxidase-negative, constituted about 10% of the isolates. Both types of bacteria probably were composed of more than one species. A third type, composed of purple-pigmented pseudomonads, made up approximately 30% of the isolated cultures, and probably represented the predominant species. Other bacterial types isolated constituted less than 10% of the cultures examined.     

Yields of Bacterial Cells from Hydrocarbons

A strain of Nocardia and one of Pseudomonas, both isolated on pristane (2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecane), gave cell yields of approximately 100% on n-octadecane and pristane. Both organisms grew more rapidly on the n-octadecane than on the pristane. A mixed culture, isolated on 3-methylheptane, whose two components were identified as species of Pseudomonas and of Nocardia, gave approximately 100% cell yields and grew with generation times of about 5 hr on n-heptane, n-octane, and 2-methylheptane. The generation time on 3-methylheptane was 8.6 hr and the cell yield was only 79%. A strain of Pseudomonas isolated from naphthalene enrichments and one from phenanthrene enrichments both gave a cell yield of 50% on naphthalene. The phenanthrene isolate gave a cell yield of 40% on phenanthrene. A Nocardia species isolated on benzene gave a 79% cell yield on benzene. The generation times of the bacteria isolated on aromatic hydrocarbons were related to the solubility of the aromatic hydrocarbons on which they were grown; the more insoluble hydrocarbons gave slower growth.     

Sesquiterpene Glucosides from Chloranthus japonicus Sieb

A new lindenane sesquiterpene glucoside named yinxiancaoside A (1), a new, rare bidesmosidic megastigmane sesquiterpene glucoside named yinxiancaoside B (5), and three known sesquiterpene glucosides, chloranoside A (2), pisumionoside (3), and sarcaglaboside A (4), were isolated from the whole plant of Chloranthus japonicus Sieb. The structures of the new compounds were established by an extensive study of their spectral data, especially 1D- and 2D-NMR. The cytotoxic activity of the isolated compounds against human hepatoma (Hepg-2), human ovarian carcinoma (OV420), and human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells was investigated.     

Labdane diterpenes from Juniperus communis L. berries

A phytochemical study of the methanol extract of Juniperus communis berries was undertaken. The crude extract was analysed by HPLC-UV and the isolation of the minor compounds was performed by centrifugal partition chromatography. By this means, five diterpenes were isolated, one of which was a new labdane diterpene 15,16-epoxy-12-hydroxy-8(17),13(16),14-labdatrien-19-oic acid. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including UV, NMR, MS and HR-MS.     

Sesqui- and diterpenoids from two Japanese and three European liverworts

A new peroxy muurolane-type sesquiterpenoid was isolated from the ether extract of the Belgium liverwort Scapania undulata, together with three known ent-muurolanes. A new lepidozane-type sesquiterpenoid was isolated from the Japanese Porella subobtusa together with a known santalane- and two africane-type sesquiterpenoids. All structures were determined by means of NMR spectroscopic techniques. The chemosystematics of each species are discussed.     

Lectin from rice

N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine-binding lectin was isolated and purified from rice by ammonium sulphate fractionation and affinity chromatography using N-acetyl-D-glucosamine linked Sepharose 6B column. It gave a single hand on Polyacrylamide disc gel. It was identified as a glycoprotein. The purified lectin dissociated into two components on Sephadex G-100 column chromatography,-a higher molecular weight fraction not containing any carbohydrate and a lower molecular weight glycoprotein fraction. The apparent molecular weights of these fractions were 85,000 and 14,500. The lectin agglutinated erythrocytes of human A,B,O groups and of several other mammals and its activity was inhibited only by N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. The glycopeptide isolated by pronase digestion of the lectin was homogeneous and did not possess agglutinating activity. It contained about 10% carbohydrate of which xylose, arabinose and glucose were the major components.     

Exocellular Peptides from Antarctic PsychrophilePseudoalteromonas Haloplanktis

A novel diketopiperazine, named cyclo-(D-pipecolinyl-L-isoleucine) (DKP 1), and 7 known diketopiperazines were isolated from the cell-free culture supernatant of the Antarctic psychrophilic bacterium Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis TAC125. Two diketopiperazines containing pipecolinyl moiety were isolated for the first time from a natural source. Two new linear peptides, stable to bacterial proteolytic enzymes, were also characterized. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by means of spectroscopic data (1D-, 2D-NMR, EIMS, FABMS, and ESIMS/MS) and chiral high-performance liquid chromatography. The potential antioxidant activity of the isolated compounds was evaluated by a DPPH free radical scavenging assay.

Four spiroquinazoline alkaloids from Eupenicillium sp. isolated as an endophytic fungus from leaves of Murraya paniculata (Rutaceae)

A Eupenicillium spp. was isolated from healthy leaves of Murraya paniculata (Rutaceae) after surface sterilization. This fungus was cultivated in sterilized white-corn, where the spiroquinazoline alkaloids alanditrypinone, alantryphenone, alantrypinene and alantryleunone were produced. The culture was extracted with methanol and the alkaloids were isolated by a combination of silica gel chromatography and HPLC. The structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic studies, including 2D NMR and MS–MS experiments. The possible role of endophytes in the biosynthesis of plant secondary metabolites is discussed.     

Lysosomes from rabbit type II cells catabolize surfactant lipids

The role of a lysosome fraction from rabbit type II cells in surfactant dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) catabolism was investigated in vivo using radiolabeled DPPC and dihexadecylphosphatidylcholine (1, 2-dihexadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine; DEPC), a phospholipase A(1)- and A(2)-resistant analog of DPPC. Freshly isolated type II cells were gently disrupted by shearing, and lysosomes were isolated with Percoll density gradients (density range 1.0591-1.1457 g/ml). The lysosome fractions were relatively free of contaminating organelles as determined by electron microscopy and organelle marker enzymes. After intratracheal injection of rabbits with [(3)H]DPPC and [(14)C]DEPC associated with a trace amount of natural rabbit surfactant, the degradation-resistant DEPC accumulated 16-fold compared with DPPC in lysosome fractions at 15 h. Lysosomes can be isolated from freshly isolated type II cells, and lysosomes from type II cells are the primary catabolic organelle for alveolar surfactant DPPC following reuptake by type II cells in vivo.

Iridoids from Globularia dumulosa

Two new iridoids, 10-O-benzoylglobularigenin (1) and dumuloside (2) were isolated from the aerial parts of Globularia dumulosa together with seven known iridoid glucosides, davisioside (3), aucubin (4), melampyroside (5), catalpol (6), 10-O-benzoylcatalpol (7), alpinoside (8) and deacetylalpinoside (9). Three phenylethanoid glycosides, verbascoside, decaffeoyl-verbascoside, leucosceptoside A and three flavone glucosides, pectolinarigenin 7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, nepetin 7-O-B-D-glucopyranoside, demethoxycentaureidin 7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside were also isolated and characterized. The structure elucidation of the isolated compounds was performed by spectroscopic (UV, IR, HR-MALDIMS, 1D- and 2D NMR) methods.     

Stimulation of renin secretion from the intact kidney and from isolated glomeruli by the calcium ionophore A23187.

The ionophore A23187 evoked a dose-dependent release of renin from the isolated perfused cat kidney, which was inhibited by calcium deprivation and adrenergic blockade. The latter finding indicates that the effects of A23187 on the intact kidney are mediated mainly by catecholamine release from sympathetic nerve endings. Ionophore also elicited a concentration-dependent enhancement of renin secretion from a pure preparation of glomeruli isolated from cat kidney; this stimulation was still manifest when the glomeruli were superfused with a calcium-free solution. These findings indicate that A23187 evokes renin secretion from juxtaglomerular cells by mobilizing cellular calcium and support the view that an increase in intracellular calcium is intimately involved in the mechanism of renin secretion.     

Physicochemical characterization of A and B subunits of Shiga toxin and reconstitution of holotoxin from isolated subunits

The A and B subunits of Shiga toxin were isolated by high performance liquid chromatography and their physicochemical properties were examined. The A subunit of Shiga toxin purified from culture supernatant was not nicked, but it could be nicked in vitro by trypsin. The isoelectric points of the A and B subunits were determined to be 8.2 and 5.8, respectively. Amino acid compositions of the two subunits were also determined. The isolated A and B subunits were reconstituted to form active holotoxin which showed lethal activity to mice which was similar to that of native Shiga toxin.     

Characterization of two gangliosides from human leukemic polymorphonuclear leukocytes.

Eight bands of gangliosides, from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes were demonstrated by thin-layer chromatography. Bands 4 and 5 were isolated and purified in sufficient amounts to allow their biochemical identification by thin-layer chromatography, gas chromatography and sequential action of glycosidases and neuraminidase. The major ganglioside was characterised as N-acetylneuraminylgalactosyl-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyl-beta-galactosyl-beta-glucosylceramide. A second ganglioside was tentatively identified as N-acetylneuraminyl-galactosyl-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyl-beta-(N-acetylneuraminyl)galactosyl-beta-glucosylceramide. Both gangliosides isolated were hydrolysed by neuraminidase. However, treatment of the intact cells with neuraminidase did not alter the ganglioside pattern.     

An acyl-thioesterase from yeast mitochondria

A previously unstudied acyl-coenzyme A thioesterase activity has been demonstrated in submitochondrial particles from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The preferred substrate for the enzyme activity is oleoyl-coenzyme A. Tests with inhibitors of the thioesterase showed that, in addition to common thiol inhibitors, the oxidative phosphorylation inhibitors oligomycin and venturicidin also blocked thioesterase activity. Purification of the enzyme catalyzing this activity revealed that thioesterase copurified with mitochondrial ATPase. When thioesterase was isolated from oxidative phosphorylation mutants selected for resistance to these two inhibitors, thioesterase activity was also resistant. The results suggest that thioester hydrolysis may be catalyzed by components associated with the isolated ATPase complex. Further attempts to link this activity to in vivo function of ATPase were not successful.
