Abstract
A new dimeric indole alkaloid, vincazalidine A consisting of an aspidosperma type and a modified iboga type with 1-azatricyclo ring system consisting of one azepane and two piperidine rings coupled with an oxazolidine ring was isolated from Catharanthus roseus, and the structure including absolute stereochemistry was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data as well as DP4 statistical analysis. Vincazalidine A induced G2 arrest and subsequent apoptosis in human lung carcinoma cell line, A549 cells.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Natural Medicines is an international journal publishing original research in naturally occurring medicines and their related foods and cosmetics. It covers:
-chemistry of natural products
-biochemistry of medicinal plants
-pharmacology of natural products and herbs, including Kampo formulas and traditional herbs
-botanical anatomy
-cultivation of medicinal plants.
The journal accepts Original Papers, Notes, Rapid Communications and Natural Resource Letters. Reviews and Mini-Reviews are generally invited.
