An EtOH extract of the leaves of Casearia sylvestris afforded new clerodane diterpene, casearin X, together with the known compounds casearins B, D, L, and O, and caseargrewiin F. Casearin X degraded to the corresponding dialdehyde when stored in CDCl(3). The diterpenes isolated were cytotoxic to
An extract of the plant Anacolosa clarkii was obtained from the NCI Natural Products Repository, and it showed cytotoxic activity toward several types of pediatric solid tumor cell lines. Bioassay-guided fractionation led to the purification of eight new clerodane diterpenes [anacolosins A-F (1-6)
Systematic analyses of plants that are used in traditional medicine may lead to the discovery of novel cytotoxic secondary metabolites. Diterpene possesses multiple bioactivities; here, epoxy clerodane diterpene (ECD) was isolated from Tinospora cordifolia (Willd.) stem and shown potential
New clerodane diterpenes, 12-epi-megalocarpodolide D (2) and an epimeric mixture of crotonolins A (3) and B (4), were isolated from the bark of Croton oligandrus following a bioassay-guided isolation protocol. Known compounds, megalocarpodolide D (1), 12-epi-crotocorylifuran (5), cluytyl-ferulate
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is general term for ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, which is chronic intestinal and colorectal inflammation caused by microbial infiltration or immunocyte attack. IBD is not curable, and is highly susceptible to develop into colorectal cancer. Finding agents
The effects of two nor-diterpenes, trans-dehydrocrotonin (DCTN) and trans-crotonin (CTN) from Croton cajucara (Euphorbiaceae), on the survival of mice bearing Sarcoma 180 and Ehrlich carcinoma ascitic tumours, on the proliferation of cultured Ehrlich cells and TNF alpha activity were determined.
Crispene E, a new clerodane-type diterpene, inhibited STAT3 dimerization in a cell-free fluorescent polarisation assay and was found to have significant toxicity against STAT3-dependent MDA-MB 231 breast cancer cell line and selectively inhibited the expression of STAT3 and STAT3 target genes cyclin
Bio-activity directed investigation of hexane extract from the leaves of Premna tomentosa led to the isolation of three new clerodane diterpenes (1-3) along with four known compounds (4-7). The structures of new compounds were established using IR, MS, 1D, and 2D NMR techniques. The in vitro
The isolation studies of a crude MeOH/CH2Cl2 (1:1) extract (N005829) of the bark of Laetia corymbulosa yielded 15 new clerodane diterpenes, designated corymbulosins I-W (1-15), as well as four known diterpenes, 16-19. The structures of 1-15 were characterized on the basis of extensive 1D and 2D NMR
A bioactive CH3OH-CH2Cl2 (1:1) extract of the bark of Laetia corymbulosa provided five new clerodane diterpenes with an isozuelanin skeleton, designated as corymbulosins D-H (1-5), as well as the known corymbulosins B (6) and C (7), for which the relative configurations were not previously
The first phytochemical investigation of Casearia graveolens twigs led to the isolation and identification of a new clerodane diterpene, caseariagraveolin (1), together with six known compounds (2-7). Their structures were elucidated by intensive analysis of their spectroscopic data. Compound 1
New clerodane diterpene, 16-hydroxy-pentandralactone (1) and known diterpene acuminolide (2) were isolated from the methanol extract of Vitex cofassus leaves. The chemical structure and the absolute configuration of 1 were determined by MS, NMR and electron circular dichroism (ECD) experiments. The
As part of a study on antitumor agents from rainforest plants, four new clerodane diterpenes, bucidarasins A--D (1-4), were isolated from Bucida buceras. Their structures were elucidated from detailed 2D NMR analyses. Compounds 1-3 showed potent cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines with
Teotihuacanin (1), an unusual rearranged clerodane diterpene with a new carbon skeleton containing a spiro-10/6 bicyclic system, was isolated from the leaves and flowers of Salvia amarissima. Its structure was determined through spectroscopic analyses. Its absolute configuration was established by
Casearia arguta was investigated as part of the ongoing search for synergistic TRAIL (tumor necrosis factor-α-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) sensitizers. As a result of this study, argutins A-H, eight new highly oxygenated clerodane diterpenes, were isolated from the plant Casearia arguta
