Diterpenoid늬 연구현황은 본인의 회갑기념논문집에 기재한바 있으나 그후 수년이 경과하여 많은 논문이 발표되어 있으므로 입수된 문헌범위내에서 이를 보충하여 천연 diterpene의 분포, 생합성, 생물학적 중요성 및 이용에 관한 연구등에 대하여 이하 기술코저 한다.

The cyclization of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate followed by ionization, proton elimination or cation center migration produces dicyclic, tricyclic and tetracyclic diterpenoids. The role of some of diterpenoids in animals is well known but their precise functions in plants remain to be explained.

Effects of three kinds of precursors as well as exogenous taxanes on the production of taxol and its derivatives were investigated in Taxus cuspidata and Taxus brevifolia cell suspension cultures. When geraniol was added as a precursor of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate to enhance diterpenoid metabolism, production of some taxanes including taxol was enhanced. The time of addition and amount of feeding were found to be important factors. Feeding of camphor and menthol resulted in negative effects on taxol production. Influences of exogenous taxanes on taxane production by cell cultures were found to be very complicated. When taxol, baccatin III, cephalomannine were exogenously added into the culture, production of baccatin III, 7-epi-10-deacetyltaxol, 10-deacetyltaxol was increased respectively.

ent-Kaurane- and ent-pimarane-type diterpenoids were isolated from the methanol extract of Siegesbeckia pubescens by column chromatography. Their structures were elucidated as ent-16$\alpha$H,17-hydroxy-kau­ran-19-oic acid (1), ent-4,17-dihydroxy-16$\alpha$-methyl-kau­ran-19-oic acid (2), ent-16$\beta$,17-dihydroxy-kauran-19-oic acid (3), kirenol (4) and ent-16$\beta$,17,18-trihydroxy-kauran­19-oic acid (5) by spectral analysis. The cytotoxicity of these compounds in Caki cells was assayed by a cell counting kit. Only one group treated with kirenol (4), an entpimarane-type diterpenoid, showed the inhibition of the cell growth in Caki cells.

Many diterpenoids from Siegesbeckia species (Compositae) and their anti-inflammatory actions have been examined. In this research, high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet spectrophotometer (HPLC-UV) method was used to compare the quantitative level of kirenol (ent-pimarane-type diterpenoid) in the aerial parts of Korean S. glabrescens and S. pubescens and the Chinese Siegesbeckiae Herba. Fingerprints of the two HPLC chromatograms of Korean S. glabrescens and S. pubescens were similar, but considerably different from Chinese Siegesbeckiae Herba. The content of kirenol in S. pubescens ($16.51{\pm}0.10$ mg/ml dry weight as mean${\pm}$RSD) was higher than S. glabrescens ($13.48{\pm}0.12$ mg/g dry weight). These values were considerably higher than the Chinese Siegesbeckiae Herba ($1.55{\pm}0.74$ mg/g dry weight). Thin layer chromatography (TLC) analysis demonstrated the containing of kirenol in the three plant materials, but the presence of siegeskaurolic acid (entkaurane-type diterpenoid) only in the Chinese Siegesbeckiae Herba.

The succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) inhibitory component was isolated from the EtOAc fraction of Lactuca sativa through repeated column chromatography; then, it was identified as phytol, a diterpenoid, based on the interpretation of several spectral data. Incubation of SSADH with the phytol results in a time-dependent loss of enzymatic activity, suggesting that enzyme modification is irreversible. The inactivation followed pseudo-first-order kinetics with the second-rate order constant of $6.15{\times}10^{-2}mM^{-1}min^{-1}.$ Complete protection from inactivation was afforded by the coenzyme $NAD^{+}$, whereas substrate succinic semialdehyde failed to prevent the inactivation of the enzyme; therefore, it seems likely that phytol covalently binds at or near the active site of the enzyme. It is postulated that the phytol is able to elevate the neurotransmitter GABA levels in central nervous system through its inhibitory action on one of the GABA degradative enzymes, SSADH.

Organic residues analysis is an analysis method that reveals the types of organic material samples by using the characteristic that main components constituting substances are different depending on the species of animals and plants. In this study, scientific analysis of the organic residues attached to wood coffins in the Joseon Dynasty Hoemyo excavated from the site of Singok-dong, Uijeongbu was used to identify the types of remnants and to use them as information to restore the uses of organic materials and the way they lived in the past. As a result of FT-IR analysis of the residue attached to the inside of the wood, it was estimated to be a natural plant resin material. In addition, as a result of analysis by GC-MS to confirm the characteristic factors of natural resins, diterpenoids (abietane) and pimaran (pimarane), such as dehydroabietic acid and pimaric acid (diterpenoid) compounds, and saturated and unsaturated fatty acid components were detected together. Diterpenoid compounds are components mainly found in Pinaceae resins. It is confirmed in the literature that rosin, a representative material of Pinaceae resin, was used as an adhesive material. Considering the situation where an organic material remained at the joint of the wood, the organic material attached to the wood is judged to be an adhesive material made of Pinaceae resin. In addition, the fatty acid component detected together is a component derived from plant oil, and it is presumed to be made by mixing rosin and oil as recorded in previous studies. This study confirms that organic residues remain in the burial environment without losing their characteristics. It is expected that scientific analysis of organic residues will be conducted in the future to accumulate information necessary for the interpretation of past living culture.
