Two new chromones, oleracone H () and oleracone I (), were isolated from L. and identified by UV, IR, UHPLC-ESI-QTOF/MS, 1D NMR, 2D NMR, and CD spectra. In 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical quenching assay, oleracone H () and oleracone I () presented scavenging activities with IC values (half maximal inhibitory concentration) of 16.33 ± 0.20 μM and 22.36 ± 0.41 μM and the abilities of inhibiting the inflammatory factors IL-1 and TNF- of the two compounds were superior to that of the positive control at 10 μM.

Eight pairs of dihydrohomoisoflavonoids (1-8), including four pairs of enantiomeric aglycones [(R,S)-portulacanones B (1) and C (2) and (R,S)-oleracones C (3) and Q (4)] and four pairs of epimeric glycosides [portulacasides A-D and epiportulacasides A-D (5-8)], were obtained from Portulaca oleracea L. Among them, (R,S)-oleracone Q (4) and four pairs of epimeric glycosides (5-8) were reported for the first time. The 50% EtOH fraction from the 70% EtOH extract prevented HepG2 human liver cancer cell damage induced by N-acetyl-p-aminophenol (APAP), and the cell survival rate was 62.

Eleven compounds were obtained from L., including two novel ketone alkaloids, (, ), 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzamide () (isolated for the first time), β-adenosine (), oleracrylimide A and B (, ), oleracein H, C, D, Q and A (-). The two novel ketone alkaloids were identified as 5-acetyl-5-methylcyclopent-2-ene-1-carboxamide (), named oleraciamide H, and (2 R,3S,4R,5R)-5-((R)-1,2-dihydroxyethyl)-3,4-dihydroxytetrahydrofuran-2-yl glycinate (), named oleracone Q by spectroscopic methods, including 1D, 2D NMR and compound fingerprints.

A novel skeleton alkaloid was obtained from Portulaca oleracea L., which was identified as 10,11-dihydroxybenzo[5',6'] pentaleno[1',2':3,4]pyrrolo[2,1-b]oxazol-7(11bH)-one, named oleracone M, and its structure was determined using UHPLC-ESI-QTOF/MS, 1D NMR and 2D NMR spectroscopy, and circular dichroism. Then the bioactivities of the compound were investigated including the anti-inflammatory, anti-acetylcholinesterase and antioxidant activities.

Article Synopsis
  • Alzheimer's disease (AD) involves dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier and is the most common neurodegenerative condition.
  • Our research focused on oleracones, a new group of flavonoids derived from a plant extract, which showed promise in enhancing cognitive function and reducing inflammation and amyloid plaques in transgenic mice models of AD.
  • Oleracone F specifically improved memory in mice by decreasing amyloid burden and inflammation, while other oleracones blocked proteins that promote inflammation, suggesting they could help protect the brain from AD-related damage.
