Abstract
Twelve new compounds, bletistrosides M-X (1-12), including five glucosyloxybenzyl 2-isobutylmalates (1-5), along with four neolignan glycosides (6-9), two phenanthrene derivatives (10-11), and one bibenzyl derivative (12), were isolated from the tubers of Bletilla striata (B. striata). The structures and absolute configurations of the undescribed compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data analysis, experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism data, chiroptical analysis, and chemical derivatizations. In silico, compounds 2, 3, and 12 bound well to Aβ1-42. Compounds 2, 3, and 12 significantly delayed the paralysis phenotype in CL4176 worms compared to controls. Higher nonparalysis rates were observed in these treatment groups (5 μM for compound 2; 25, 50 μM for compounds 2, 3 and 12), suggesting their potential role in anti-Alzheimer's disease.
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.
