Abstract
Our phytochemical investigation of the roots of Uvaria siamensis led to the isolation of two new lanostane triterpenes, 3-acetylpolycarpol (1) and 15-acetylpolycarpol (2), as well as 15 known compounds (3-17). The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by an analysis of spectroscopic data. Compounds 1-9 were tested against nonsmall cell lung cancer cells (A549) and human cervical carcinoma cells (HeLa) using an MTT assay. Polycarpol (3) and uvariamicin-II (9) exhibited potent cytotoxicity against A549 cancer cells, while 15-acetylpolycarpol (2) and pinocembrin (4) displayed potent cytotoxicity against HeLa cancer cells. Further analysis of the apoptosis-inducing properties revealed that uvariamicin-II (9) and pinocembrin (4) induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner in A549 and HeLa cells, respectively. These two compounds also showed weak cytotoxicity toward Vero cells.
