RESUMEN
Callicarpa nudiflora Hook (C. nudiflora) is an anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and hemostatic ethnomedicine. To date, little has been reported regarding the activity of C. nudiflora against ulcerative colitis (UC). In this study, we investigated the effect of a flavonoid extract of C. nudiflora on Dextran Sulfate Sodium (DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis in mice. Mice in the treatment group (CNLF+DSS group) and drug-only (CNLF group) groups were administered 400 mg/kg of flavonoid extract of C. nudiflora leaf (CNLF), and drinking water containing 2.5 % DSS was given to the model and treatment groups. The symptoms of colitis were detected, relevant indicators were verified, intestinal barrier function was assessed, and the contents of the cecum were analyzed for intestinal microorganisms. The results showed that CNLF significantly alleviated the clinical symptoms and histological morphology of colitis in mice, inhibited the increase in pro-inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1ß, and IFN-γ), and increased the level of IL-10. The expression of NF-κB and MAPK inflammatory signal pathway-related proteins (p-p65, p-p38, p-ERK, p-JNK) was regulated. The expression of tight junction proteins (ZO-1, OCLDN, and CLDN1) was increased, while the content of D-LA, DAO, and LPS was decreased. In addition, 16S rRNA sequencing showed that CNLF restored the gut microbial composition, and increased the relative abundance of Prevotellaceae, Intestinimonas butyriciproducens, and Barnesiella_intestinihominis. In conclusion, CNLF alleviated colitis by suppressing inflammation levels, improving intestinal barrier integrity, and modulating the intestinal microbiota, and therefore has promising future applications in the treatment of UC.

Six previously undescribed clerodane diterpenes, cardorubellas A-F (1-6), along with seven known ones (7-13), were isolated from the aerial parts of Callicarpa pseudorubella. Their chemical structures were established by analysis of 1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS, X-ray diffraction, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data. Notably, cardorubella B (2) represented the first examples of naturally occurring succinic anhydride-containing clerodane diterpenes derivatives. The anti-proliferative activities of these compounds were assessed. Remarkably, compound 2 exhibited comparable inhibitory activity against HEL cell lines, surpassing the positive control with an IC50 value of 14.01 ± 0.77 µM, compared to 17.02 ± 4.70 µM for 5-fluorouracil.

Three new compounds callicarpenoids A-C (1-3), were isolated from the stems of Callicarpa arborea Roxb together with fifteen known compounds (4-18). The structures of these compounds were elucidated using advanced spectroscopic techniques, including 1D and 2D NMR, UV, IR, HR-ESI-MS, ECD, ORD, and quantum chemical calculations. Compound 3, a rare rearranged diterpenoid with a fused 5/6-ring system demonstrated strong potential as an inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome activation with an IC50 value of 3.153â µM. It effectively reduced GSDMD-NT production, inhibited caspase-1 activation, and suppressed IL-1ß secretion, thereby mitigating NLRP3 inflammasome-induced pyroptosis in J774A.1 cells. These findings suggest that compound 3 warrants further research and development as a promising NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor.

Fourteen undescribed seco-type diterpenoids, named nudifloids A-N, together with ten known analogs, were isolated from the leaves of Callicarpa nudiflora. Nudifloids A-N had a characteristic 3,4-seco-labdane-type diterpenoid skeleton, whereas nudifloids A-C and K-N were 3,4-seco-norditerpenoids. Nudifloid A was the first example of a 3,4-seco-12,13,14,15,16-quartnor-labdane diterpenoid, with a seven-membered lactone ring formed through esterification between C-3 and C-11. Nudifloids B and C were a pair of highly modified 3,4-seco-labdane nor-diterpenoid epimers, of which C-2 and C-18 were cyclized together to form a cyclohexene fragment. The structures of these undescribed diterpenoids were established by spectroscopic analysis and reference data. The anti-inflammatory activity of diterpenoids in rich yield was evaluated by analyzing the inhibition of lipopolysaccharide plus nigericin-induced pyroptosis in J774A.1 cells. Nudifloids D and E exhibited prominent anti-NLRP3 inflammasome activity, with IC50 values of 1.80 and 1.59 µM, respectively. Cell permeability assays revealed that nudifloid D inhibited pyroptosis, which could ameliorate inflammation by blocking the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome.

A new iridoid glycoside, named 6'-O-trans-feruloyl-8-epiloganic acid, together with fifteen known compounds were isolated from the twigs and leaves of Callicarpa nudiflora, a traditional Chinese medicine to treat inflammatory-related diseases. Their structures were identified by comprehensive spectroscopic analysis and comparison with reported data. Bioassay results revealed that twelve of the isolates could obviously inhibit nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cell lines with IC50 values from 0.64 to 38.72â µM. Among them, compounds 1 (3.27â µM), 6 (5.23â µM), 13 (1.56â µM) and 14 (0.64â µM) exhibited significantly higher activities than that of the positive control (27.13â µM). Additionally, it was supposed that the presence of the carboxy group at the C-4 position of iridoid glycosides and glycosylation at C-3 position of flavonoids might impact their inhibitory activities against NO production.

Callicarpa nudiflora, belonging to the family Verbenaceaae, is wildly used as a traditional Chinese herbal medicine (Luo-hua-zi-zhu) for hemostasis, antibiosis and antiphlogosis in clinic. However, the underlying chemical basis of C. nudiflora for the significant effects remains obscure. Hence, an ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry method was established for the characterization of multi-constituents in C. nudiflora. As a result, 57 chemical compounds were identified based on their retention times, accurate masses and MS/MS data, and 20 of them were uncovered for the first time in C. nudiflora. In addition, an optimized UHPLC fingerprint analysis, combined with chemometrics including similarity analysis, principal component analysis and partial least squares-discriminant analysis was developed for quality assessment and origin discrimination of C. nudiflora. Multivariate data analysis revealed the resemblances and differences of C. nudiflora related to regions, while partial least squares-discriminant analysis screened nine characteristic markers including luteoloside, acteoside, luteolin-4'-O-ß-D-glucopyranoside, pachypodol, isoquercitrin, nudifloside, 5,7,3',4'-tetrahydroxy-8-methoxy-6-C-ß-D-glucopyranosylflavone, 7α-acetoxysandaracopimaric acid and sandaracopimaric acid which contributed the most to the classification. This was the first report on the comprehensive profiling of chemical components in C. nudiflora, which helped to uncover the material basis of C. nudiflora and possess potential value for quality evaluation and clinical application purpose.

Pyroptosis is a programmed-inflammatory cell death, which leads to release of inflammatory cellular contents and formation of inflammation. Uncontrollable pyroptosis can result in serious immune diseases, such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS), sepsis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), and acute organ damage, including acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute kidney injury (AKI). Members of the Callicarpa genus are significant raw materials for traditional Chinese medicine, widely used for analgesia, hemostasis, and anti-inflammation. Previously, we have reported some ent-clerodane diterpenoids from Callicarpa arborea, shown potent inhibitory effects against pyroptosis. In this study, we went on investigating this kind of diterpenoids, and yielded 66 ent-clerodane diterpenoids, including 52 new compounds, from Callicarpa arborea. Their structures featured with a 5/6- (1-25) or a 6/6- (26-66)-fused double-ring scaffolds, were elucidated using spectroscopic data, electrostatic circular dichroism (ECD) and X-ray diffraction analyses. Screening for the inhibitory activity against pyroptosis by detecting of IL-1ß secretion in J771A.1 cells, revealed 28 compounds with an IC50 below 10.5 µM. Compound 1 was the most potent with an IC50 of 0.68 µM and inhibited the J774A.1 macrophage pyroptosis by blocking the NLR pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation. An in vivo study further revealed that compound 1 decreased infiltration of CD11b + F4/80 + macrophages into lung and attenuated the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced lung injury. Taken together, this study indicated the potential of compound 1 as a candidate for pyroptosis-related inflammation treatment, as well as provided the chemical and pharmacological basis for the further development of Callicarpa genus as a herbal medicine.

Eight undescribed 3,4-seco-norlabdane diterpenoids, callnudoids A-H, as well as two known analogues were isolated from the leaves of Callicarpa nudiflora. The structures were elucidated using spectroscopic methods and were compared with published NMR spectroscopic data. The absolute configurations of callnudoids D and E were defined based on ECD data or single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Callnudoids A-C are the highly modified labdane diterpenoids featuring rearranged 3,4-seco-ring and the formation of an undescribed cyclohexene moiety via C2-C18 cyclization. They only contain 15 carbon atoms on the carbon skeleton. Callnudoid D represents the unusual 3,4-seco-15,16-norlabdane diterpenoid with C13-C17 cyclization, and a putative biosynthesis pathway for callnudoids A, B, D, and E was proposed. All compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activities by inhibiting the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) released in RAW264.7 cells; callnudoids A-E and H, and methylcallicarpate obviously inhibited pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1ß in a dose-dependent manner.

Luohuazizhu suppository is a Traditional Chinese Medicine used in clinic to treat cervicitis, which is prepared from Callicarpa nudiflora Hook. et Arn (C. nudiflora), an herbal Chinese medicine named Luohuazizhu. This study aimed to figure out the active constituents of C. nudiflora and the potential mechanism for its anti-cervicitis effect. The ethanol extract in C. nudiflora (CNE) and the different fractions of CNE extracted by petroleum ether (CNE-p), dichloromethane (CNE-d), and n-butanol (CNE-b) were tested in vivo for their anti-cervicitis effects. Then the isolated compounds from the CNE-p were tested in vitro for their anti-inflammatory activities. The results displayed that CNE-p, CNE-d, and CNE-b exhibited adequate anti-cervicitis effects, with CNE-p showing the highest efficacy. Further experiment demonstrated that CNE-p could significantly inhibit the expression of NLRP3 in vitro. Six diterpenoids obtained from the CNE-p showed the ability to regulate inflammatory factor levels in vitro. Among these compounds, compounds 1 (callicarpic acid A) and 2 (syn-3,4-seco-12S-hydroxy-15,16-epoxy-4(18),8(17),3(16),14(15)-labdatetraen-3-oic acid) were the most effective agents, and they also inhibited the expression level of NLRP3 in vitro. The results confirmed that C. nudiflora has significant anti-cervicitis effects and the diterpenoids were most likely to be its active components. These data provide scientific support for the clinic usage of Luohuazizhu suppository and the development of new agents in treating cervicitis.
