  • Three lignans were isolated from a methanol extract of Lindera erytherocarpa Makino (Lauraceae) are evaluated in vitro cytotoxicity using three cancer cell line assay. The compounds were identified as methyllinderone (1), linderone (2), and kanakugiol (3) by spectroscopic methods. Amongst the compounds, methyllinderone (1) showed significant cytotoxicity against mouse melanoma (B16-FlO), human acetabulum fibrosarcoma (HT1080), and choronic myelogenous leukemia (K562) cancer cell lines with $ED_{50}$ values of 2.2, 2.5, 8.3 ${\mu}g/ml$, respectively.

  • Three lignans were isolated from the fruit of Magnolia denudata (Magnoliaceae) through repeated column chromatography. Their chemical structures were elucidated as sesamin, kobusin and eudesmin, respectively, by spectroscopic analysis. These compounds were isolated for the first time from the fruit of Magnolia denudata.

  • Arctigenin and demethyltraxillagenin, dibenzylbutyrolactone lignans, are phenylpropanoid plant metabolites with antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities. The effects of arctigenin and demethyltraxillagenin on the nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB)-mediated inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene expression were studied in Raw264.7 cells.(omitted)

  • Five phenylpropanoids (1-5), a benzofuran neolignan (6), two 8-O-4'-neolignans (7-8), and five tetrahydrofuran lignans (9-13) were isolated from a methanol extract of Myristica fragrans seeds. The structures of 1-13 were determined by $^1H$- and $^{13}C$-NMR spectroscopic data analyses and a comparison with the literature data. Compound 3 was isolated for the first time from this plant. All the isolated compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against tyrosinase. Among them, safrole (1) showed significant inhibitions against both the monophenolase ($IC_{50}=32.11{\mu}M$) and diphenolase ($IC_{50}=27.32{\mu}M$) activities of tyrosinase. The kinetic analysis shows that safrole (1) is competitive inhibitors for both monophenolase and diphenolase. The apparent inhibition constant ($K_i$) for safrole (1) binding with free enzyme was determined to be 16.05 and $13.66{\mu}M$ for monophenolase and diphenolase, respectively.

  • The chromatographic separation of the MeOH extract of the roots of Ainsliaea acerifolia (Compositae) led to the isolation of six known terpenes and two known lignans. Their structures were identified by spectroscopic methods as mokko lactone (1), betulonic acid (2), betulinic acid (3), zaluzanin C (4), $1{\beta}-hydroperoxygermacra-4(15)$, 5, 10(14)-triene (5), pluviatilol (6), (+)-syringaresinol (7), and glucozaluzanin C (8). Compounds $1{\sim}4$ and 8 showed non-specific significant cytotoxicity against five human tumor cell lines with $ED_{50}$ values ranging from $0.36{\sim}5.54{\mu}g/mL$.

  • Chemical investigation on a sample of the needles of Himalayan Taxus baccata has resulted in the isolation of several taxoids including taxol (1) 10-deacetyl-baccatin III (2) and 2-deacetoxytaxinine J (3) along with different lignans (6 and 7) and simple phenolics (8, 9, 10, 11 and 12). The occurrence of 4-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-butane-2-one and 4-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-trans-but 3-ene-2-one (8) in Taxus species is reported for the first time. The $^{13}C-NMR$ spectral data of two rearranged taxiod constituents, brevifoliol (4) and 13-decinnamoyltaxchinin B (5) are presented. The acid-catalyzed decomposition of taxol has been discussed. The synthesis of other two constituents, rhododendrol (10) and hibalactone (7) has been described.

  • Pancreatic lipase digests dietary fats by hydrolysis, which is a key enzyme for lipid absorption. Therefore, reduction of fat absorption by the inhibition of pancreatic lipase is suggested to be a therapeutic strategy for obesity. We previously reported coumarins and secoiridoids of Fraxinus rhynchophylla as inhibitory constituents on adipocyte differentiation. Further investigation on F. rhynchophylla led to the isolation of lignan derivatives such as lignans (1 - 10), sesquilignans (11 - 14) and coumarinolignans (15 - 17). Among them, coumarinolignans and sesquilignans were first reported from Fraxinus species. Among the constituents isolated, sesquilignans showed the significant inhibition on pancreatic lipase, whereas lignans and coumarinolignans exerted weak effects.

  • Column chromatographic separation of the alcoholic extract from the roots of Berberis amurensis yielded eight phenolic constituents including six lignans, hanultarin (1), (-)-secoisolariciresinol (3), (+)-lyoniresinol (5), (+)-syringaresinol (6), (+)-syringaresinol-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (7), liriodendrin (8), and two phenylpropanoids, 4-glucosyloxy-3-methoxyphenyl trans-propenoic ethyl ester (2), trans-ferulic acid (4). The structures were determined on the basis of NMR spectroscopic data. All isolated compounds(1-8) were reported for the first time from this source. Compound 1 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines in vitro using sulforhodamin B bioassay.
