Article Synopsis
  • A phytochemical study on the methanol extract of stems and leaves led to the discovery of six dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans, including three new compounds named kadsindutalignans A, B, and C.
  • Their structures were identified through various spectroscopic techniques like HRESIMS and NMR, which provided detailed insights into their molecular configurations.
  • All isolated compounds demonstrated the ability to inhibit NO production in LPS-activated RAW264.7 cells, with the new compound showing particularly strong activity, surpassing the effectiveness of the positive control (L-NMMA).

Two new phenolic glycosides, physangulosides A and B (1 and 2), were isolated from the whole plant of Physalis angulata. Their chemical structures were determined by mean of HR-ESI-MS, lD, and 2D-NMR spectra. Both of the compounds showed weak protection against hydrogen peroxide induced hepatocytes damage.

Inhibitory effects of NO production in RAW 264.7 macrophages guided the isolation of nine prenylated isoflavones, including a new cudraisoflavone L (1) and eight known metabolites furowanin B (2), erysubin A (3), wighteone (4), lupalbigenin (5), laburnetin (6), isolupalbigenin (7), 6,8-diprenylorobol (8), millewanin H (9) from the leaves of Cudrania tricuspidata. At the concentration of 10 μM, compounds 1, 2, and 4 significantly inhibited NO production with the inhibitory values of 72.
