Ten new lantabetulicacid (1) derivatives 2–11 were synthesized and their cytotoxicities against humanprostatecancercells were evaluated. PC3 cells treated with 10 μM 8 exhibited the most potent G1 phase arrest. In addition, 10 μM 8 markedly decreased the levels of cyclin E and cdk2 and caused an increase in the p21 and p27 levels, while 20 μM 8 mainly led to cell death through the apoptotic pathway

Sweet gum (
Liquidambar styraciflua
L., family Hamamelidaceae) fruit extract was discovered to possess potent activities against multiple targets of the PBK (phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase) pathway, especially the PI3K/Akt and mTOR pathways. At a very low concentration of 1.85 μg/ml (IC50), sweet gun extract showed the ability of simultaneously blocking the pathways of PI3K/Akt (upstream), mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) (downstream), as well as its downstream protein products S6K and S6. It was also able to block 5-HETE, a lipoxygenase product that contributes to inflammation and activation of PI3K/Akt. The sweet gum fruit extract was prepared with 50% methanol (47:1; raw to extract) and concentrated to an organic fraction (210:1 raw to extract) referred as LIS-100 via reverse-phase column chromatography using a bioassay directed fractionation approach. The extract is a new targeted therapeutic agent for numerous disorders known to be treated by mTOR inhibitors, including cancer, diabetes, obesity, and inflammation.

The present invention relates to
Rhus verniciflua
Stokes extract having an increased content of an active flavonoid compound through a gas bubbling treatment, a method for preparing the
Rhus verniciflua
Stokes extract, and a method for converting fustin into fisetin through the gas bubbling treatment of a solution containing fustin. The method for preparing the
Rhus verniciflua
Stokes extract of the present invention can convert the conventional
Rhus verniciflua
Stokes extract having high content of fustin and low content of fisetin into a
Rhus verniciflua
Stokes extract having high content of fisetin. Therefore, the
Rhus verniciflua
Stokes extract of the present invention can be commercialized into natural anticancer agents, anticancer and cancer prevention food products, and health functional foods due to the excellent bioactivity thereof, and promote the development of relevant industries through the high added-value of
Rhus verniciflua
Stokes. In addition, the method for converting fustin into fisetin can be applied to other natural substances and be used as a method for enhancing the functionality thereof by increasing the content of a high active flavonoid, thereby becoming an enabling technology that can lead high-functionalization of natural substances.
