Abstract
Extracts of the zoanthid from Zoanthus kuroshio (ZK) exhibited significant in vitro antiosteoporotic activity in MG-63 cells, prompting the use of Global Natural Products Social Molecular Networking (GNPS) to identify alkaloid-rich fractions. Subsequently, five new zoanthamine-type alkaloids, norzoabenzaldehyde (1), norzoazepanol (2), 3-acetoxynorzoanthaminone (3), 11-hydroxynorzoanthamide B (4), and 11-hydroxyzoanthamide B (5), were isolated. Structural elucidation was achieved by spectroscopic analyses, time-dependent density functional theory nuclear magnetic resonance (TDDFT-NMR) calculations, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD). The alkaloid 3-hydroxynorzoanthamine exhibited notable alkaline phosphatase activity and promoted mineralization, with an IC50 value of 20 μM, underscoring its potential as a promising lead compound for the development of osteoporosis therapeutics.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Natural Products invites and publishes papers that make substantial and scholarly contributions to the area of natural products research. Contributions may relate to the chemistry and/or biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds or the biology of living systems from which they are obtained.
Specifically, there may be articles that describe secondary metabolites of microorganisms, including antibiotics and mycotoxins; physiologically active compounds from terrestrial and marine plants and animals; biochemical studies, including biosynthesis and microbiological transformations; fermentation and plant tissue culture; the isolation, structure elucidation, and chemical synthesis of novel compounds from nature; and the pharmacology of compounds of natural origin.
When new compounds are reported, manuscripts describing their biological activity are much preferred.
