Cytotoxicity of Prenylated Xanthones and Other Constituents from the Wood of Garcinia merguensis
2008
Abstract One new prenylated xanthone 5-farnesyltoxyloxanthone B ( 4), three known xanthones alpha-mangostin ( 1), rubraxanthone ( 2) and isocowanol ( 3) as well as (2 E,6 E,10 E)-4beta-hydroxy-3-methyl-5beta-(3,7,11,15-tetramethylhexadeca-2,6,10-tetraenyl)-cyclohex-2-en-1-one ( 5) and 3,3',4- O-trimethylellagic acid were isolated from the wood of GARCINIA MERGUENSIS Wight. The cytotoxic activities of compounds 1 - 5 were evaluated against the MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, NCI-H-460 and SF-268 cell lines with rubraxanthone 2 and 5 exhibiting the highest activity at 9.0 and 12.1 microM, respectively, against MCF-7 cells.
