B-Ring-modified and/or 5-demethylated nobiletin congeners: Inhibitory activity against pro-MMP-9 production
摘要:
Three metabolites and 12 analogues of nobiletin (1) were synthesized. Whereas nobiletin derivatives 2-4 inhibited pro-MMP-9 production similarly in both PMA- and TNF-alpha-stimulated human lens epithelial cells, the 2'-hydroxylated analogue 5a exerted marked inhibitory effects (IC50: 0.4 mu M) on PMA-treated cells, which were 170-fold more potent than those on TNF-alpha-treated cells. This activity may be closely related to PKC-mediated transcriptional regulation of pro-MMP-9. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Polyhydroxylated aromatic compounds, and compositions containing them, are useful for the treatment of amyloidosis, especially Alzheimer's disease, and for the treatment of diseases characterized by α-synuclein fibril formation, especially Lewy body disease and Parkinson's disease.
A series of 3 '-aminoflavones 5,6,7,8-tetra- or 5,7-dioxygenated on the A-ring was synthesized from tangeretin or naringin, two natural Citrus flavonoids. These flavones were evaluated for antiproliferative activity, activation of apoptosis, and inhibition of tubulin assembly. The most antiproliferative flavones exhibit a common 5-hydroxy-6,7,8-trimethoxy substitution pattern on the A-ring. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
