Abstract:
Two new Δ12 ursene-type triterpenoid coumaroyl esters (1 and 2), one new Δ7,15 isopimarane-type diterpenoid glycoside (20), and two new irido-δ-lactone-type iridoids (21 and 22), together with 17 known pentacyclic triterpenoids (3 – 19), were isolated during the phytochemical investigation of a methanol extract of the whole plant of Vaccinium emarginatum. Their structures were determined by detailed analysis of standard spectroscopic data (MS, IR, 1D, and 2D NMR) and comparison with data of known analogs. The isolates were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against the PC-3 and Du145 prostate cancer cell lines (as assessed by an MTT cell proliferation assay), as well as for their anti-inflammatory activity via the inhibition of nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharide-induced murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. Among the isolates, the triterpenoid coumaroyl and feruloyl esters (1, 3, and 4) exhibited strong cytotoxicity against PC-3 prostate cancer cells, with 85.6 – 90.2% inhibition at 10.0 µg/mL. The pomolic acid coumaroyl and feruloyl esters (1 and 3) also showed moderate anti-inflammatory activity against nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW 264.7 cells, with 59.2 (± 1.0) and 47.1% (± 0.2) inhibition at 12.5 µg/mL, respectively.
