In vitro anti-inflammatory, in silico molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation of oleanane-type triterpenes from aerial parts of Mussaenda recurvata.

ABSTRACT: Bioactive-guided investigation of the aerial parts of Mussaenda recurvata Naiki, Tagane, and Yahara (Rubiaceae) led to the isolation of four triterpenes, including two new triterpenes recurvatanes A and B (1 and 2), along with two known compounds 3β,6β,23-trihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid (3) and 3β,6β,19α,23-tetrahydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid (4). The chemical structures of the compounds were identified from spectroscopic data and by comparison with the literature. A comprehensive review of NMR data of the oleanane-type triterpenes bearing 3-hydroxy and 4-hydroxymethylene groups indicated the characteristic spectroscopic features in this series. Compounds 1-4 were evaluated for the inhibitory NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Compounds 2 and 3 showed a moderate reduction of nitrite accumulation with IC₅₀ values of 55.63 ± 2.52 and 60.08 ± 3.17 μM, respectively. Molecular docking model dedicated to compound 3 or pose 420, which is the best candidate among docking poses of compounds 1-4 interacted well with the crystal structure of enzyme 4WCU: PDB. The best ligand molecule, pose 420 in terms of binding energy obtained from docking studies on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for 100 ns exhibited non-bonding interactions with the protein and remained stable inside the active site.

Project description:BackgroundAntirrhinum majus (Snapdragon) is a perennial Mediterranean-native plant that is commonly used for mass display. Few reports acknowledged the traditional use of A. majus for its medicinal and therapeutic effects. Herein, we assess the impact of A. majus's sample preparation and extraction methods on the plant-aerial parts' phytochemical contents and antimicrobial activity. Furthermore, the microbial targets of the extracts' secondary metabolites are inspected using molecular docking simulations.MethodsThe leaves and flowers of A. majus were prepared as fresh and air-dried samples, then extracted using cold maceration and hot reflux, respectively. Extracts with the best phytochemical profiles were selected to test their antimicrobial activities against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli and Candida albicans. Besides, molecular docking of 66 reported isolated compounds was conducted against various microbial targets.ResultsThe dried-refluxed samples revealed a massive deterioration in their phytochemical profiles, whereas the macerated flowers extract exhibited the highest total phenolic content and antimicrobial activity against all tested bacterial strains. However, both flowers and leaves extracts showed similar minimum inhibitory and lethal concentrations against C. albicans. Molecular docking studies revealed that chlorogenic acid, chalcononaringenin 4'-glucoside, 3,4,2',4',6'-pentahydroxy-chalcone 4'-glucoside, apigenin-7-glucuronide, and luteolin-7-glucuronide were the lead compounds in expressing the antimicrobial activity. Yet, A. majus's compounds could neither inhibit the 30S ribosomal subunit nor muramyl ligase E.ConclusionOur results suggest that cold maceration of A. majus fresh aerial parts gave higher flavonoid and phenolic content contributing to its antimicrobial properties. These flavonoids and phenolic compounds are predicted to have a crucial role in inhibiting fungal sterol 14-demethylase, and bacterial dihydropteroate synthase and gyrase B subunit proteins.

Project description:Natural product studies explore potential and interesting new compounds to discover innovative drugs. Nigella sativa (N. sativa) (Ranunculaceae) is traditionally used to treat diabetes. Flavonoids and triterpenoid mostly show anti-diabetic activity. The current study aim to identify new compounds by a systematic study of the anti-oxidant and anti-diabetic activity of aerial parts of N. sativa concerning. Phytochemicals were isolated from the methanolic extract of aerial parts of the plant by column chromatography and identified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectroscopy. A new triterpenoid saponin glycoside was isolated along with flavonoids. The anti-diabetic study was carried out by DPPH, ABTS, α -glucosidase, and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B assays at doses of 12.5 to 250 µM. The isolated phytochemicals were identified as 3-O-(β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1-3)-α-l-rhamnopyrnaosyl-(1-2)-α-l-arabinopyranosyl]-28-O-(α-l-rhamno-pyranosyl-(1-4)-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1-6)-β-d-glucopyranosyl] hederagenin (1), flaccidoside III (2), catechol (3), quercetin-3-gentiobiosides (4), magnoflorine (5), nigelflavonoside B (6), nigelloside (7), quercetin sphorotrioside (8), kaempferol-3, 7-diglucoside (9), kaempferol 3-O-rutinoside (10), rutin (11), 3-O-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-l-arabinopyranpsylhederagenin (12), 3β,23,28-trihydroxyolean-12-ene-3-O-α-l-arabinopyranoside(1→4)-a-rhamnopyranosyl,(1→4)-β-d-gluco-pyranoside (13), 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-l-arabinopyranpsyl]-28-O-β-d-gluco-pyranosyl hederagenin (14), and α-hederin (15). These were isolated and are reported for the first time in this study. Compared 13 was identified as a new compound. Compound 2 was isolated for first time from the genus Nigella. Compound 6 was found to be the most active in the DPPH, and ABTS assays and compound 10 was found to be the most active in the α-glucosidase assay, with IC50 32.7 ± 0.1, 95.18 ± 0.9, 214.5 ± 0.0 µΜ, respectively. Compound 12, at a dose of 125 µΜ, showed anti-diabetic activity in a PTP1B assay with IC50 91.30 ± 2.5 µΜ. In conclusion, the anti-diabetic activity of N. sativa is due to its flavonoids and TTSGs. Therefore, our studies suggest that the aerial parts of N. sativa are also a valuable and alternate source of valuable phytochemicals that could be used to develop anti-oxidant and anti-diabetic medicines.
