Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 3 (TRPV3) is an ion channel implicated in skin physiology and itch. TRPV3 inhibitors can present a novel strategy for combating debilitating itch conditions, and medicinal plants are a natural pool of such compounds. Here, we report the isolation of a TRPV3-inhibiting compound from Andrographis paniculata, a medicinal plant with anti-inflammatory properties whose bioactive components are poorly characterized in terms of molecular targets. Using 1H and 13C NMR and high-resolution mass spectrometry, the compound was identified as a labdane-type diterpenoid, 14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide (ddA). The activity of the compound was evaluated by fluorescent calcium assay and manual whole-cell patch-clamp technique. ddA inhibited human TRPV3 in stably expressing CHO and HaCaT keratinocytes, acting selectively among other TRP channels implicated in itch and inflammation and not showing toxicity to HaCaT cells. Antipruritic effects of the compound were evaluated in scratching behavior models on ICR mice. ddA suppressed itch induced by the TRPV3 activator carvacrol. Additionally, ddA potently suppressed histamine-induced itch with efficacy comparable to loratadine, a clinically used antihistamine drug. These results suggest the potential of ddA as a possible safe and efficacious alternative for antipruritic therapy.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Natural Products invites and publishes papers that make substantial and scholarly contributions to the area of natural products research. Contributions may relate to the chemistry and/or biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds or the biology of living systems from which they are obtained.
Specifically, there may be articles that describe secondary metabolites of microorganisms, including antibiotics and mycotoxins; physiologically active compounds from terrestrial and marine plants and animals; biochemical studies, including biosynthesis and microbiological transformations; fermentation and plant tissue culture; the isolation, structure elucidation, and chemical synthesis of novel compounds from nature; and the pharmacology of compounds of natural origin.
When new compounds are reported, manuscripts describing their biological activity are much preferred.
