J Asian Nat Prod Res. 2009 Aug;11(8):693-7. | Cytotoxic ent-kaurane diterpenoids from Isodon macrophyllus.[Pubmed: 20183309 ] | METHODS AND RESULTS:
Two new ent-kaurane diterpenoids, dayecrystals D-E (1-2), together with nine known compounds, isojaponin A (3), rabdosin A (4), lushanrubescensin J (5), wikstroemioidin B (6), maoyecrystal C (7), rabdosin B (8), isodonal (9), Shikokianin (10), and effusanin A (11), were isolated from the leaves of Isodon macrophyllus. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated using 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. The (13)C-NMR spectral data of compound 4 are reported for the first time.
CONCLUSIONS:
All of the compounds were tested for their cytotoxicities against DU145 and LoVo human tumor cells. Compounds 4, 10, and 11 showed inhibitory effects on DU145 cells with IC(50) values 5.90, 4.24, and 3.16 microM, and LoVo cells with IC(50) values 14.20, 17.55, and 3.02 microM, respectively. | Planta Med. 2005 Aug;71(8):764-9. | Two novel ent-kauranoid diterpenoids from Isodon japonica leaves.[Pubmed: 16142643] | METHODS AND RESULTS:
Two novel ent-kaurane diterpenoids, taihangjaponicain A (1), and taihangjaponicain B ( 2), and nine known diterpenoids, epinodosin (3), oridonin (4), epinodosinol (5), lasiokaurin ( 6), 1alpha- O-beta- D-glucopyranosylenmenol (7), lasiodonin (8), rabdosichuanin D ( 9), Shikokianin (10) and rabdoternin A (11) were isolated from I. japonica leaves. The structures of the two new compounds were elucidated using 1-D and 2-D NMR spectroscopy. Compounds 1 and 3 - 11 were tested against HL-60, HO-8910 and A-549 human tumor cells.
CONCLUSIONS:
Compounds 4, 6 and 10 showed significant cytotoxicity against HL-60 cells with IC (50) values of 4.6, 2.0 and 3.4 microM, respectively, and against A-549 cells with IC (50) values of 17.5, 11.4 and 18.8 microM, respectively. Compound 6 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against HO-8910 cells with an IC (50) value of 17.9 microM. |
