Siegesbeckia pubesence (Cempesitae). a perenial herb, is widely distributed in our country and has been used for rheumaic arthritis, hypertension, malaria. neurasthnia and snake-bite in traditional Chinese medicine. On reviewing the literatures of this plant. diterpenoids and alkaloids were isolated and some pharmacological activities were investigated. As part of our systematic study fer Korean Compositae plants, we have investigated Siegesbeckia pubesence (7kg), cellected from Mt. Odae on Aug. 2001. (omitted)

Nuclear factor-${\kappa}{B}$ (NF-${\kappa}{B}$) belongs to a group of homodimers and heterodimers of Rel/NF-${\kappa}{B}$ proteins that bind to DNA target sites, where they directly regulate gene transcription. The activation of NF-${\kappa}{B}$ has been shown to mediate inflammation and suppress apoptosis. Activated NF-${\kappa}{B}$ has been found n various inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Atherosclerosis, asthma, nflammatory bowel disease, and Helicobacter pylori-associated gastritis and associated with cancer, cachexia, diabetes, euthyroid sick syndrome, and AIDS.

Chamaecyparis obtusa (Siebold & Zucc.) Endl. is an evergreen tree of the family Cupressaceae well known for its unique scents. The seed extract of this cypress tree was phytochemically investigated to isolate a novel abietane-diterpene compound (1) along with fifteen known terpenoids (2-16). All of the isolated compounds were subjected to the screening of antimicrobial activities against Cutibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis including erythromycin resistant strains. Among the isolates, 1α-hydroxy-hinokione (1), hinokione (3), 1,2-dehydrohinokione (4) and ferruginol (9) showed significant antibacterial activities against both acne-causing strains. This study demonstrated that abietane-type diterpenoids are the main antibacterial components in C. obtusa seed extract, and some isolated compounds can be further developed as potential acne-treatment agents.

독활 뿌리 추출물은 한국을 포함한 극동아시아 국가에 널리 분포하고 있다. 이 추출물은 한국에서 두통, 염증, 허리통증 및 치과질환 등 다양한 질환에 오랫동안 사용되어져 왔다. 활성물질은 에피-콘티넨탈산, 콘티넨탈산 그리고 카우레노산으로 동정되었다. 생체이용능을 향상시킨 디테르페노이드 유도체의 합성을 위해, Fusarium fujikuroi가 생물전환용 균주로 선발되었다. 생물전환을 통하여 16α-hydroxy-ent-kauran-2-on-19-oic acid 와 2β, 16α-dihydroxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid의 두 가지 유도체가 얻어졌으며, 이들의 화학구조는 HPLC, MS 및 NMR 분석을 통해 확인되었다. 이러한 유도체들은 HPLC에서의 산물 유출시간과 구조적 특성을 통해 카우레노산에 비해 증가된 극성을 나타내었다. 인슐린 신호전달경로의 음성조절자인 PTP1B를 대상으로 한 항당뇨 활성을 평가한 결과, 4 ㎍/ml 농도에서 각각 30.8% 및 27.6%의 억제율을 나타냈으며, 두 유도체는 기존의 카우레노산 보다 18배 높은 IC₅₀ 값을 갖는 낮은 세포독성을 보여주었다. 따라서, F. fujikuroi에 의한 생물전환으로 인해 증가된 수용성과 감소된 독성을 갖는 두 카우레노산 유도체는 산업적 응용을 위한 유망한 후보물질로 평가된다.

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.

Seven diterpenes, four polyacetylenes, a lipid glycerol, and two sterols were isolated from the methylene chloride fraction of the root of Aralia cordata. Their chemical structures were determined as (-)-pimara-8(14), 15-dien-19-oic acid (2), pimaric acid (3), (-)-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid (4), 17-hydroxy-ent-kaur-15-en-19-oic acid (9), $7{\alpha}$-hydroxy-(-)-pimara-8(14), 15-dien-19-oic acid (10), $16\alpha$, 17 -dihydroxy-(-)-kauran-19-oic acid (11), 16-hydroxy-17-isovaleroyloxy-ent-kauran-19­oic acid (12), falcarindiol (5), dehydrofalcarindiol (6), dehydrofalcarindiol-8-acetate (7), falcarin­diol-8-acetate (8), alpha-mono palmitin (13), stigmasterol (1), and daucosterol (14) by the spectral evidences. These compounds were tested with COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition assays. This study found that compounds 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 10 inhibited COX-1 dependent conversion of the exogenous arachidonic acid to $PGE_2$ in a dose-dependent manner with $IC_{50}$ values of $134.2{\mu}M$, $121.6{\mu}M$, $170{\mu}M$, $50.4{\mu}M$, $11.7{\mu}M$, $99.6{\mu}M$, and $69.6{\mu}M$, respectively. But, most of these compounds weakly inhibited COX-2 dependent $PGE_2$ generation. Among them, only compound 4 showed relatively significant inhibitory activity $(IC_{50}\;:\;127.6{\mu}M)$.

Activity-guided fractionation of the n-hexane and ${CHCl_3}-soluble$ fractions of Sindora sumatrana using a bioassay based on the inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) production by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cells led to the isolation of the known compound, $(+)-7{\beta}-acetoxy-15,16-epoxy-3$, 13(16), 14-clero-datriene-18-oic acid (2) as an active constituent. In addition, a new trans-clerodane diterpenoid, (+)-2-oxokolavenic acid (1), together with six known compounds, (+)-3, 13-clerodadiene-16,15-olide-18-oic acid (3), $(+)-7{\beta}-acetoxy-3$,13-clerodadiene-16,15-olide-18-oic acid (4), $(+)-7{\beta}-acetoxy-16-hydroxy-3$,13-clerodadiene-16, 15-olide-18-oic acid (5), ${\beta}-caryophyllene$ oxide (6), $clovane-2{\beta},9{\beta}-diol (7),{\;}and{\;}caryolane-1,9{\beta}-diol$ (8) were isolated and found to be inactive. The structure of compound 1 was determined using physical and spectroscopic methods such as 1D and 2D-NMR experiments. The known compounds 2-8 were identified by the spectroscopic data and by comparison with the published values. Of eight isolates (1-8), only compound 2 exhibited an iNOS inhibitory activity with $IC_{50}$/ value of $51.6{\;}\mu\textrm{m}M$.
