Bisindole Alkaloids with Neural Anti-inflammatory Activity from Gelsemium elegans
摘要:
Three new trace bisindole alkaloids geleganimines A and B (1, 2) and geleganamide (3) were isolated from the aerial parts of Gelsemium elegans. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopy, particularly from their carbon-proton coupling constants, and electronic circular dichroism. Compounds 1-3 are the first bisindole alkaloids discovered from the genus Gelsemium. Geleganimine B exhibited anti-inflammatory activity indirectly by suppressing lipopolysaccharide-induced pro. inflammatory factors in BV2 microglial cells with an IC50 value of 10.2 mu M. These findings confirm the importance of bioactive trace components in medicinal plant research.
