Eleven compounds were isolated from the n-butanol extract of Aglaia odorata Lour, including one undescribed lignan, curlignan-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), and ten known compounds (2–11). Their structures were characterized by comprehensive spectral analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance (1D and 2D NMR), mass spectrometry (MS), and electronic circular dichroism (ECD). The inhibitory effects of these compounds on nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated BV-2 microglia were evaluated. The experimental results indicated that the anti-neuroinflammatory activities of compounds 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 and 10 were significantly better than those of the positive control minocycline (IC50 = 41.34 ± 3.55 μM), with IC50 values ranging from 1.31 to 15.70 μM.

Gastric cancer is one of the common malignant tumors. It is reported that daphne-type diterpenes have inhibitory effects on gastric cancer cells, but the mechanism is still unknown. To explore the detailed mechanism of the anticancer effect of daphne-type diterpenes, we carried out an integrated network pharmacology prediction study and selected an effective component (yuanhuacine, YHC) for the following validation in silico and in vitro. The result showed that daphne-type diterpenes exerted an anti-tumor effect by targeting proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase SRC as well as regulating the Ras/MAPK signaling pathway, which caused the apoptosis and mitochondrial damage in gastric cancer cells.

Rauvolfia dichotoma, a shrub of Apocynaceae, was collected from the Islands of SAO Tome and Principe and cultivated locally for medicinal purpose. Phytochemical investigation of 95% ethanol extract from the stems and leaves of R. dichotoma led to the isolation of two new Nb-oxide indole alkaloids, namely Nb-oxide-mitoridine (1) and Nb-oxide-raucaffricine (2), together with two known alkaloids (3–4) and eleven known lignans (5–15). Their chemical structures were elucidated by extensive NMR and HR-ESI-MS data analysis. All compounds (except 13) were tested for their β-hematin inhibitory activity. Compounds 2, 4, 14, and 15 showed certain inhibitory activity, indicating that they may have an antimalarial effect.

Two pairs of cyclohexene amide alkaloid enantiomers were obtained from the root of Piper nigrum. Their plane structures were established by NMR and HRESIMS spectra. The absolute configurations of 1a/1b and 2a/2b were determined by the comparison between the experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. All identified compounds were tested for inhibitory effects on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in vitro. Notably, compounds 1b and 2b showed strong inhibitory effects on AChE and the interaction between proteins and compounds was discussed by molecular docking studies.

Guiding by LC-MS/MS analysis and the Global Natural Products Social (GNPS) Molecular Networking, three undescribed sesquiterpenoids, stedapgens A–C, and two known analogues were discovered in the barks of Daphne genkwa Sieb. et Zucc. The structures were determined by analysis of their spectroscopic data and quantum-chemical calculations. All the isolated novel compounds were tested for their acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities with IC50 = 0.754 ± 0.059, 0.696 ± 0.026, and 0.337 ± 0.023 μg/ml. Among them, stedapgen A displayed promising inhibitory activities against AChE, and the binding sites were predicted by molecular docking.

In this study, a previously undescribed cassane diterpenoid, named caesalpinin JF (1), along with two known cassane diterpenoids caesanine C (2) and tomocinol B (3), was isolated from 95% EtOH extract of the seeds of Caesalpinia sappan Linn. Additionally, three known compounds including pulcherrin R (4), syringaresinol-4'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (5) and kaempferol (6) were also identified. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by comprehensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses. Additionally, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation was used to identify the absolute structure of compound 1. Among the isolated compounds, compound 1 displayed a potent anti-neuroinflammation with an IC50 value of 9.87 ± 1.71 μM.

Two new cassane diterpenoids, sucupiranin MN (1) and sucupiranin ML (2), together with two known compounds sucutinirane C (3) and deacetylsucutinirane C (4) were isolated from the seed kernels of Caesalpinia sinensis. Their structures were elucidated by means of analysis of comprehensive spectroscopic data, especially HRESIMS and 1D/2D NMR spectroscopy. Compounds 1–4 are typical furan-type cassane derivatives with an aromatized C ring. Biological evaluation revealed that compounds 1–4 at the concentration of 10 μM could inhibit the overproduction of NO in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages.
