Anticancer Secondary Metabolites: From Ethnopharmacology and Identification in Native Complexes to Biotechnological Studies in Species of Genus Astragalus L. and Gloriosa L.

Some of the most effective anticancer compounds are still derived from plants since the chemical synthesis of chiral molecules is not economically efficient. Rapid discovery of lead compounds with pronounced biological activity is essential for the successful development of novel drug candidates. This work aims to present the chemical diversity of antitumor bioactive compounds and biotechnological approaches as alternative production and sustainable plant biodiversity conservation. Astragalus spp., (Fabaceae) and Gloriosa spp. (Liliaceae) are selected as research objects within this review because they are known for their anticancer activity, because they represent two of the largest families respectively in dicots and monocots, and also because many of the medicinally important plants are rare and endangered. We summarized the ethnobotanical data concerning their anticancer application, highlighted the diversity of their secondary metabolites possessing anticancer properties such as saponins, flavonoids, and alkaloids, and revealed the potential of the in vitro cultures as an alternative way of their production. Since the natural supply is limited, it is important to explore the possibility of employing plant cell or organ in vitro cultures for the biotechnological production of these compounds as an alternative.     

细叶石斛有效成分分析及其水溶性提取物的血管舒张活性

对细叶石斛(DendrobiumhancockiiRofle)茎上部、茎中部、茎下部和根中的多糖、生物碱和矿质元素含量进行了分析,并研究了其水溶性提取物对SD大鼠胸主动脉血管的舒张效应。结果表明,细叶石斛中总多糖含量较高,并含有较多的钾、钙、镁、铁、锰、锶、钛和铜等元素,与细茎石斛〔D.moniliforme(L.)Sw.〕及铁皮石斛(D.officinaleKimuraetMigo)相比,其水溶性多糖和生物碱的含量较低,而且不同部位中的含量存在差异。细叶石斛水溶性提取物强烈拮抗苯肾上腺素所致的大鼠胸主动脉血管收缩作用,对内皮完整和无内皮功能的2种样本均引起类似的浓度依赖性舒张效应,相关系数有显著意义(>r0.01),两者的IC50分别为0.309和0.404g L。     

蜡梅种子抑菌成分研究

在抑菌活性追踪指导下,采用硅胶柱层析的方法。从蜡梅种子中分离得到一活性化合物A,经质谱、核磁共振波谱等技术鉴定为d－洋蜡梅碱。经杀虫活性和抑菌活性测定,该化合物对粘虫的幼虫无毒杀活性;对西瓜枯萎病菌、玉米小斑病菌、玉米大斑病菌、番茄早疫病菌均有显著的抑菌活性。其抑制中浓（EC50）分别为：3878．8、29．3、103．1、328．3mg／L,但对油菜菌核病菌无抑制活性。     

Diterpenoids from Wedelia prostrata and Their Derivatives and Cytotoxic Activities

One new ent‐kaurane diterpenoid, 11β,16α‐dihydroxy‐ent‐kauran‐19‐oic acid ( 1 ), together with eight known analogues 2 – 9 were isolated from the aerial parts of Wedelia prostrata. One of the acidic diterpenoids, kaurenoic acid ( 3 ), was converted to seven derivatives, 10 – 16 . All compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity in vitro against human leukemia (K562), liver (HepG‐2), and stomach (SGC‐7901) cancer cell lines. Only four kaurenoic acid derivatives, 13 – 16 , with 15‐keto and substitutions at C(19) position, exhibited notable cytotoxic activities on these tumor cell lines with IC₅₀ value ranging from 0.05 to 3.71 μm . Compounds 10 – 12 , with oxime on C(15) showed moderate inhibitory effects and compounds 1 – 9 showed no cytotoxicities on them. Structure–activity relationships were also discussed based on the experimental data obtained. The known derivative, 15‐oxokaurenoic acid 4‐piperdin‐1‐ylbutyl ester ( 17 ), induced typical apoptotic cell death in colon SW480 cells upon evaluation of the apoptosis‐inducing activity by flow‐cytometric analysis.

Five New C19‐Diterpenoid Alkaloids from Delphinium tianshanicum W.T.Wang

Five new diterpenoid alkaloids, tianshanitines A‐E ( 1  –  5 ), along with ten known compounds ( 6  –  15 ), were isolated from the EtOH extracts of the whole plant of Delphinium tianshanicum W.T.Wang . Their structures were determined based on extensive spectroscopic analyses, including 1D‐ and 2D‐NMR, HR‐ESI‐MS, and the structure of tianshanitine C ( 3 ) was confirmed by X‐ray diffraction analysis. Tianshanitine A ( 1 ) is the first example of natural diterpenoid alkaloid containing a benzoyl group at C(1) position. Tianshanitine B ( 2 ) is a rare natural diterpenoid alkaloid bearing a OH group at C(16) position. Compounds 1  –  5 , 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 14 were evaluated for cytotoxicity against HCT116, MCF‐7 and HepG2 human cancer cell lines.
