Abstract

6-Methoxygeniposidic acid, a new iridoid glucoside, was isolated from the roots of Rubia cordifolia. The structure was deduced from spectral and chemical evidence.

Anti-inflammatory monoterpenes from morinda (Morinda officinalis How.)
2024, Phytochemistry
Morinda (Morinda officinalis How.) is widely consumed as a functional food owing to its potential to promote health. This study investigated the anti-inflammatory phytochemicals of morinda and isolated 30 monoterpenes, including 6 undescribed iridoids (1, 6, 9–11 and 25), 2 undescribed acyclic monoterpenoids (28, 29), a known acyclic monoterpenoid and 21 known iridoids. Their chemical and stereo-structures were elucidated based on HR–ESI–MS, NMR, ¹³C-NMR calculations, ECD data and ECD calculations. Notably, compounds 11, 12 and 20 exerted pronounced inhibitory effects on lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 macrophages, with IC₅₀ values of 28.51 ± 1.70, 25.45 ± 4.17 and 29.17 ± 3.71 μM respectively (indomethacin, IC₅₀ of 33.68 ± 2.19 μM). The same compounds exert anti-inflammatory effects by blocking nuclear translocation of nuclear factor κ-B, and down-regulating the expression of inflammatory cytokines such as cyclooxygenase-2, inducible nitric oxide synthase, interleukin-1β and interleukin-6 at mRNA and protein levels in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that moderate consumption of morinda helps prevent and reduce the occurrence of inflammatory-related diseases.
Chemical constituents from Chimaphila japonica Miq. and their chemotaxonomic significance
2023, Biochemical Systematics and Ecology
A phytochemical study of the whole plant of Chimaphila japonica Miq. led to the isolation of 20 compounds, including ten terpenoids (1–11), seven sugars (12–17), two phenols (18–19), and one fatty acid (20). The structures of these isolated compounds were identified using NMR spectroscopy (¹H and ¹³C) by comparison with previously reported data. To the best of our knowledge, compounds 1 and 19 were first reported from C. japonica; compounds 2–4, 10, and 12–14 were obtained from the genus Chimaphila for the first time, while compounds 6–9, 11, 15–17, and 20 have never been isolated from the Ericaceae family. Chemotaxonomic studies have shown that C. japonica is closely related to C. umbellata, and that the genus Chimaphila may be closely related to the genera Gaultheria, Vaccinium, Lyonia, Pyrola, and Rhododendron.
One new nucleoside and three furanpentanone derivatives from the aerial part of Rubia cordifolia L

Citation Excerpt :
In traditional Chinese medicine, the extracts of R. cordifolia roots have a series of medicinal properties, including antitumor (Hasuda et al., 2011; Jeong et al., 2012), antiepileptic (Verma et al., 2019), antiviral (Meena et al., 2010), anti-inflammatory (Shen et al., 2018), antimicrobial, and hepatoprotective effects (Jun et al., 2011; Kale et al., 2017; Kumar et al., 2016). Chemical investigations of this plant, especially its roots, have reported several bioactive components, such as anthraquinones and its glycosides (Tessier et al., 1981; Vidal-Tessier et al., 1987), naphthoquinones and its glycosides (Itokawa et al., 1993; Koyama et al., 1992), mollugins (Son et al., 2008), alizarins (Chang et al., 2000), lucidin pimeverosides, peptides (Chen et al., 2015; Hitotsuyanagi et al., 2012a, b; Lee et al., 2008; Takeya et al., 1993), and terpenoids (Arisawa et al., 1986; Ibraeim and Ahmed, 2009; Talapatra et al., 1981; Wu et al., 1991). Recent pharmacological studies of the extract from the aerial part of R. cordifolia have demonstrated promising anti-diarrheal, anti-inflammatory (Gong et al., 2017), and antiviral properties (Sun et al., 2016).
