The practical syntheses of pachastrissamine (jaspine B), 2-epi-pachastrissamine, and the 2-epimer of the pyrrolidine analogue were accomplished via the stereoselective reduction of an allylketone derived from commercially available diethyl D-tartrate and the cross-metathesis of an allyltetrahydrofuran or allypyrrolidine with 1-tridecene as key steps.

Sphingomyelin is a cell membrane sphingolipid that is upregulated in synovial sarcoma (SS). Jaspine B has been shown to inhibit sphingomyelin synthase, which synthesizes sphingomyelin from ceramide, a critical signal transducer; however, jaspine B's low bioavailability limits its application as a promising treatment option. To address this shortcoming, we used microfluidics to develop a liposomal delivery system with increased anticancer efficacy.

Methuosis is a type of programmed cell death in which the cytoplasm is occupied by fluid-filled vacuoles that originate from macropinosomes (cytoplasmic vacuolation). A few molecules have been reported to behave as methuosis inducers in cancer cell lines. Jaspine B (JB) is a natural anhydrous sphingolipid (SL) derivative reported to induce cytoplasmic vacuolation and cytotoxicity in several cancer cell lines.

Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers with few effective treatments, a new treatment agent is desperately needed. C-2, a Jaspine B derivative, has shown anti-cancer efficacy in gastric cancer cells. The anti-cancer mechanism, however, remains unknown.

Background/aim: A series of experiments on HeLa cells were conducted to provide new information concerning the anti-cancer properties of jaspine B hydrochloride (JBH).
Materials And Methods: HeLa cells treated with 0.5 μmol/l JBH for 24, 48, and 72 h underwent flow cytometric analysis of the cell cycle, and measurement of phosphatidylserine externalization, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), casp-3 activation, cleavage of PARP, ceramide levels, aSMase activity, and Bcl-2 release.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovitise, and its pathogenesis is complicated. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a lipid produced by sphingosine kinase 1 and 2 (SphK1/2), which participate in some of most-spread skeletal diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis. To explore the anti-inflammatory activity of 2-epi-jaspine B analogs as SphKs inhibitors, we used LPS-induced rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synovial cells (HFLS-RA) as the research object to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of 16 2-epi-jaspine B analogs and the newly synthesized salt CHJ01.
