Cytotoxic diterpenoid alkaloid from Aconitum japonicum subsp. subcuneatum
2019
We explored new cytotoxic C19-diterpenoid alkaloid, lipojesaconitine (1), from rhizoma of Aconitum japonicum Thunb. subsp. subcuneatum (Nakai) Kadota. Two additional non-cytotoxic new C19-diterpenoid alkaloids, 10-hydroxychasmanine (2) and 3-hydroxykaracoline (3), together with eight known C19- and C20-diterpenoid alkaloids (4−11) were also isolated. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods including NMR (1D and 2D), IR, and MS (HRMS). Six known diterpenoid alkaloids, foresticine (5), neolinine (6), aconicarchamine A (7), 9-hydroxynominine (8), kobusine (9), and torokonine (10), were isolated for the first time from A. japonicum subsp. subcuneatum. Alkaloid 1 showed cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 6.0 to 7.3 µM against four human tumor cell lines, except a multidrug-resistant subline, suggesting that 1 was likely exported by P-glycoprotein.
