RESUMEN
Phytochemical study on the methanol extract of the stem barks of Aphanamixis polystachya led to the isolation of four previously undescribed (1-4) and ten known compounds (5-14). Their chemical structures were elucidated to be 11-methoxysawaranospiroride C (1), 6α,9S,10,13-tetrahydroxymegastigmane-3-one (2), 11-hydroxyaphanamixin B (3), (2Z,6E,13E)-2,6,13-triene-11,15-dihydroxyphytanic acid (4), cinnacasside D (5), cinnacasside E (6), vilsonol F (7), (3S,5R,6S,7E,9R)-3,5,6,9-tetrahydroxy-7-en-megastigmane (8), (3S,5R,6R,7E,9R)-3,6,9,10-tetrahydroxy-7-en-megastigmane (9), citroside A (10), threo-1-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-1,2,3-propanetriol (11), 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl-1-O-ß-D-glucopyranoside (12), p-coumaric acid (13), ferulic acid (14) by HR-ESI-MS, ECD, 1D-, and 2D-NMR spectra. Compounds 1, 3, 4, and 9 showed NO production inhibitory activity in LPS activated RAW 264.7 cells with IC50 values of 42.0, 67.9, 20.5, and 78.6â µM, respectively, while the remaining compounds were inactive with IC50 values over 100â µM.

In this study, seven new pentacyclic triterpene glycosides, named dendrocinaosides A-G (1-7), and six known ones (8-13) were isolated from the whole plants of Dendrobium officinale. Their structures were determined by analyses of HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectra. Compounds 1-4, 8, and 9 potentially inhibited α-glucosidase and α-amylase activities with the IC50 values ranging from 31.3 ± 2.2 to 42.4 ± 2.5 µM for anti α-glucosidase and from 36.5 ± 1.8 to 56.4 ± 2.0 µM for anti α-amylase activities, respectively, which were lower than that of the positive control, acarbose, showing IC50 values of 47.1 ± 1.4 µM for anti α-glucosidase and 145.7 ± 2.2 µM for anti α-amylase.
RESUMEN
Five new triterpenoid glycosides, named campetelosides A-E (1-5), together with three known compounds, chikusetsusaponin IVa (6), umbellatoside B (7), and silvioside E (8) were isolated from the leaves of Camellia petelotii (Merr.) Sealy. Their chemical structures were determined by interpretations of HR-ESI-MS and NMR spectra. In addition, compounds 1-8 were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory effects. Compounds 1-3 significantly showed α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 166.7±6.0, 45.9±2.6, and 395.3±10.5â µM, respectively, compared to that of the positive control, acarbose, with an IC50 value of 200.4±10.5â µM.

Chemical investigation of the Kappaphycus alvarezii-derived endophytic fungus Aspergillus micronesiensis lead to the isolation of three novel dibenzospiroketals, aspermicrones A-C (1-3). Their chemical structures were determined by extensive analysis of HR-ESI-MS and NMR spectral data. The absolute configurations of them were determined by experimental and TD-DFT theoretical calculated circular dichroism spectra. Compound 2 exhibited selective cytotoxic effect toward HepG2 cell line (IC50 = 9.9 µM). Additionally, both of compounds 2 and 3 displayed anti-microbial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (MIC = 123.2 µM for each compound). Compound 1 was inactivity in both cytotoxic and anti-microbial assays.
