Phytochemicals with Chemopreventive Activity Obtained from the Thai Medicinal Plant Mammea siamensis (Miq.) T. Anders.: Isolation and Structure Determination of New Prenylcoumarins with Inhibitory Activity against Aromatase.

ABSTRACT: With the aim of searching for phytochemicals with aromatase inhibitory activity, five new prenylcoumarins, mammeasins K (1), L (2), M (3), N (4), and O (5), were isolated from the methanolic extract of Mammea siamensis (Miq.) T. Anders. flowers (fam. Calophyllaceae), originating in Thailand. The stereostructures of 1-5 were elucidated based on their spectroscopic properties. Among the new compounds, 1 (IC₅₀ = 7.6 µM) and 5 (9.1 µM) possessed relatively strong inhibitory activity against aromatase, which is a target of drugs already used in clinical practice for the treatment and prevention of estrogen-dependent breast cancer. The analysis through Lineweaver-Burk plots showed that they competitively inhibit aromatase (1, Ki = 3.4 µM and 5, 2.3 µM). Additionally, the most potent coumarin constituent, mammea B/AB cyclo D (31, Ki = 0.84 µM), had a competitive inhibitory activity equivalent to that of aminoglutethimide (0.84 µM), an aromatase inhibitor used in therapeutics.

Project description:BackgroundThe emergence of antimalarial drug resistance encourages the search for new antimalarial agents. Mammea siamensis belongs to the Calophyllaceae family, which is a medicinal plant that is used in traditional Thai preparations. The hexane and dichloromethane extracts of this plant were found to have potent antimalarial activity. Therefore, this study aimed to isolate active compounds from M. siamensis flowers and evaluate their antimalarial potential and their interactions with Plasmodium falciparum lactate dehydrogenase (PfLDH).MethodsThe compounds from M. siamensis flowers were isolated by chromatographic techniques and evaluated for their antimalarial activity against chloroquine (CQ)-resistant P. falciparum (K1) strains using a parasite lactate dehydrogenase (pLDH) assay. Interactions between the isolated compounds and the PfLDH enzyme were investigated using a molecular docking method.ResultsThe isolation produced the following thirteen compounds: two terpenoids, lupeol (1) and a mixture of β-sitosterol and stigmasterol (5); two mammea coumarins, mammea A/AA cyclo D (6) and mammea A/AA cyclo F (7); and nine xanthones, 4,5-dihydroxy-3-methoxyxanthone (2), 4-hydroxyxanthone (3), 1,7-dihydroxyxanthone (4), 1,6-dihydroxyxanthone (8), 1-hydroxy-5,6,7-trimethoxyxanthone (9), 3,4,5-trihydroxyxanthone (10), 5-hydroxy-1-methoxyxanthone (11), 2-hydroxyxanthone (12), and 1,5-dihydroxy-6-methoxyxanthone (13). Compound 9 exhibited the most potent antimalarial activity with an IC50 value of 9.57 µM, followed by 10, 1, 2 and 13 with IC50 values of 15.48, 18.78, 20.96 and 22.27 µM, respectively. The molecular docking results indicated that 9, which exhibited the most potent activity, also had the best binding affinity to the PfLDH enzyme in terms of its low binding energy (-7.35 kcal/mol) and formed interactions with ARG109, ASN140, and ARG171.ConclusionThese findings revealed that isolated compounds from M. siamensis flowers exhibited antimalarial activity. The result suggests that 1-hydroxy-5,6,7-trimethoxyxanthone is a possible lead structure as a potent inhibitor of the PfLDH enzyme.
