Diterpenoids from Roots of Salvia lachnocalyx; In-silico and In-vitro Toxicity against Human Cancer Cell Lines.

ABSTRACT: Further investigations on phytochemical constituents of dichloromethane extract from roots of Salvia lachnocalyx (S. lachnocalyx) led to the isolation and identification of eight known diterpenoids from this plant for the first time. The chemical structures of the purified compounds were elucidated using spectroscopic analyses including EI-MS, ¹H and ¹³C NMR and by comparison of the resulting spectra with those reported in the literature. Then, the cytotoxic activity of identified compounds was examined against two human cancer cell lines MCF-7 (human breast adenocarcinoma) and K562 (human chronic myelogenous leukemia). Molecular docking of promising cytotoxic compounds were performed by AutoDock Tools 1.5.4 program in the active site of Topoisomerase I.
