Inhibition of NF-κB Activation and iNOS Induction by ent-Kaurane Diterpenoids in LPS-Stimulated RAW264.7 Murine Macrophages
2009
Xerophilusin A (1), xerophilusin B (2), longikaurin B (3), and xerophilusin F (4) from Isodon xerophylus inhibit LPS-induced NO production in RAW 264.7 macrophages, with IC(50) values of 0.60, 0.23, 0.44, and 0.67 muM, respectively, and they all inhibited mRNA production in these same cells. They decreased the luciferase activity in RAW 264.7 cells transiently transfected with the NF-kappaB-dependent luciferase reporter, with IC(50) values of 1.8, 0.7, 1.2, and 1.6 muM, respectively. Compounds 1-3 reduced NF-kappaB activation, with compound 4 showing no effect, but p65 translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus and the LPS-induced degradation of IkappaB were inhibited by all four test …
Eremophilane Derivatives with a Novel Carbon Skeleton from Ligularia veitchiana
1997
Abstract Ligulaverin A 1, an eremophilane derivative with a novel carbon skeleton, was isolated from the medicinal plant Ligularia veitchiana, along with four analogues (ligulaverin B 2, ligulaverin C 3, ligulaverin D 4 and ligulaverin E 5). Their structures were elucidated by NMR techniques and X-ray diffraction. The biosynthetic route to this nineteen-carbon skeleton is discussed. © 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
