The fruits of Rubus chingii(Chinese raspberry) were used as a kind of dietary traditional Chinese medicine. The methanolic extract of R. chingii fruits exhibited significant PTP1 B inhibitory activity. Further bioactivity-guided fractionation resulted in the isolation of three PTP1 B inhibitory ursane-type triterpenes: ursolic acid(1), 2-oxopomolic acid(2), and 2α, 19α-dihydroxy-3-oxo-urs-12-en-28-oic acid(3). Kinetics analyses revealed that 1 was a non-competitive PTP1 B inhibitor, and 2 and 3 were mixed type PTP1 B inhibitors. Compounds 1-3 and structurally related triterpenes(4-8) were further analyzed the structure-activity relationship, and were evaluated the inhibitory selectivity against four homologous protein tyrosine phosphatases(TCPTP, VHR, SHP-1 and SHP-2).

They were 3B 16B, 23, 28-tetrahydroxyoleana-9 (11), 12(13)-diene-3-yl-[B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-2)]-[B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-3)]- B-D-fucopyranoside 1; 3B, 16B, 21B, 23, 28-pentahydroxyoleana-9(11), 12(13)-diene-3-yl-[B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-2)]-[B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-3)]- B-D-fucopyranoside 2; 3B, 16B, 23, 28-tetrahydroxyoleana-9(11), 12(13)-diene-3-yl-[B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-6)-B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-3)]-[B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-2)]-B-D-fucopyranoside 3; 3B, 16B, 23, 28-tetrahydroxyoleana-9(11), 12(13)-diene-3-yl-[B-D-gluco-pyranosyl-(1-4)-B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-6)-B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-3)]-[B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-2)]- B-D-fucopyranoside 4. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of interpretation of NMR and MS data and from chemical evidence.

文摘A new triterpene glycoside, leucospilotaside C, along with two known saponin, was isolated from sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota collected from the South China Sea, and its structure was elucidated as 3-0-{4′-O-sodiumsulfate-β′-D-xylopyranosyl}- holosta-22,25-epoxy-9-ene-3β,12α,17α-triol (1) by extensive spectroscopic analysis and chemical methods. The glycosides have the same triterpene aglycone, but differ in the oligosaccharide moieties.

文摘Ds-echinoside A (DSEA),a non-sulfated triterpene glycoside,was isolated from the sea cucumber Pearsonothuria graeffei.In vitro and in vivo investigations were conducted on the effects of DSEA on tumor cell adhesion,migration,invasion,and angiogenesis.In this study,we found that DSEA inhibited the proliferation of human hepatocellular liver carcinoma cells Hep G2,with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 2.65 μmol/L,and suppressed Hep G2 cell adhesion,migration,and invasion in a dose-dependent manner.DSEA also reduced tube formation of human endothelial cells ECV-304 on matrigel in vitro and attenuated neovascularization in the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay in vivo.Immunocytochemical analysis revealed that DSEA significantly decreased the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9),which plays an important role in the degradation of basement membrane in tumor metastasis and angiogenesis.DSEA also increased the protein expression level of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1),an important regulator of MMP-9 activation.From the results of Western blotting,the expressions of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were found to be remarkably reduced by DSEA.These findings suggest that DSEA exhibits a significant antimetastatic activity through the specific inhibition of NF-κB-dependent MMP-9 and VEGF expressions.
文摘A new derivative of triterpene named Erigeronol 1 was isolated from the EtOH extract of the aerial part of Conyza canadensis together with 15 known compounds for the first time from this plant.The structure of Erigeronol 1 was elucidated as 3-O-(hydroxyacetyl) -23,28-dihydroxy-β-amyrin by hydrolysis and spectroscopic analysis.Erigeronol 1 showed potent cytotoxic activity with IC_(50) value of 7.77±0.47μg/mL against melanoma B16 determined by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazo-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT) method.

文摘One new dammarane-type triterpene saponin,named(20S)-3β,20,21-trihydroxydammar-24-ene 3-O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl- (1→2)][β-D-xylopyranosyl(1→3)]-β-D-glucopyranoside(1),was isolated from the aerial parts of Gynostemma pentaphyllum (Thunb.) Makino.Its structural elucidation was accomplished mainly on the basis of the interrelation of spectroscopic methods, such as IR,HR-TOF-MS,NMR.
文摘Two new cycloartane triterpenes were separated from the leaves of Quercus valiabilis Blume. The structures were identified as 4α,14α-dimethyl-9β,19-cycloergost-3α-yl-24-one and 4α,14α-dimethyl-9β,19-cycloergost-24(24′)-en-3α-yl-acetate.
文摘Two new pentacyclic triterpene acids, 1a, 3b-dihydroxyl-olean-12-en-28-oic acid and 1a, 2a, 3b-trihydroxyl-olean-12-en-28-oic acid, were isolated from the arial parts of Sabia parviflora.
文摘Further studies on the sea cucumber Bohadschia marmorata Jaeger led to the isolation of a new holostan-type triterpene glycoside,Marmoroside C(1)together with a known triterpene glycoside(2).On the basis of spectroscopic analyses,including two- dimensional NMR techniques,and chemical reactions,the structure of the new triterpene glycoside was elucidated as 3-O-[3-O- methyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-quinovopyranosyl-(1→2)-4-O-sodium-sulfato-β-D-xylo- pyranosyl]-25-acetoxy-22-oxo-9(11)-holostene-3β,12α,17α-triol.

Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. These compounds showed significant antitumor activities.
