Resumen La composición de especies de hepáticas sobre los Andes del Norte varía con la altitud en relación con diferentes factores bióticos (vegetación) y abióticos (temperatura, humedad y luminosidad). Para probar esta afirmación se determinó la diversidad y distribución de las Marchantiophytas en un rango altitudinal entre los 2 400 y 3 400 m sobre la Cordillera Oriental colombiana, estableciendo cómo éstas varían entre altitudes y zonas de vida con respecto a los factores abióticos. Se realizaron muestreos cada 200 m y se registraron datos ambientales durante un año. Se encontraron 162 especies, la composición de hepáticas varió a lo largo del gradiente altitudinal con un gran número de especies únicas en cada altitud. Se encontró la máxima diversidad en los 3 000 m, con una dominancia del hábito folioso y de especies epifitas, mientras que la mayor riqueza de familias y géneros se presentó entre los 3 200 y 3 400 m. Anoplolejeunea conferta presentó la mayor cobertura en la zona así como el mayor valor del índice de valor de importancia (IVI) y distribución altitudinal más amplia, ubicándose desde los 2 400 hasta 3 000 m en cuatro diferentes sustratos. Las hepáticas se distribuyeron altitudinalmente de manera diferencial, con una diversidad beta alta (0.864) debido al recambio altitudinal de especies, con más del 30 % de disimilaría en la composición de especies cada 200 m altitudinales, dependiendo principalmente de cambios en la luminosidad. Consecuentemente, la temperatura, humedad y luminosidad y su relación con la vegetación son determinantes en la diversidad y distribución de las hepáticas en la Cordillera Oriental de los Andes colombianos.
Abstract The species composition of liverworts varies with altitude in the Northern part of the Andes due to the relationship of biotic (vegetation) and abiotic factors (temperature, humidity, and sunlight brightness). In order to test this affirmation we determined the diversity, species composition, abundance, and distribution of species of Marchantiophyta in an altitudinal range from 2 400 to 3 400 m on the Colombian Cordillera Oriental, and established how these vary with altitude and life-zones, regarding abiotic factors. Samples, taken every 200 m in the altitudinal range, and environmental data were registered during a year. We found 162 species, the composition of liverworts varied throughout the altitudinal gradient with a high number of unique species in each altitude. The maximum diversity was found at 3 000 m, along with a dominance of leafy habit and epiphytic species, while the higher richness of families and genera was found between 3 200 and 3 400 m. Anoplolejeunea conferta had the largest value of coverage in the zone, the highest value of importance value index (IVI), and the widest altitudinal distribution, from 2 400 to 3 000 m in four different substrates. The liverworts were distributed differently with altitude, we found a high beta diversity (0.864) due to the replacement of species, with more that 30 % of dissimilarity in species composition every 200 altitudinal meters, mainly depending on sunlight brightness variation. Accordingly, we found that abiotic factors like temperature, humidity, and sunlight brightness and its relationship vegetation are determinant in the diversity and altitudinal distribution of liverworts in the study area.

In the present study, two new cyclic bisbibenzyls (1, 2) co-occuring with a known compound, isoplagiochins C (3) were isolated from Hebertus dicranus. The structures were determined mainly by extensive 1D and 2D NMR experiments, and the absolute configurations of 1 and 2 were established by the circular dichroism spectrum. Furthermore, all these three rare compounds were tested in vitro for inhibitory activity against the growth of human cancer cell lines (A549, HCT116, MDA-MB-231, and BEL7404) by the MTT assay, and compound 2 exhibited moderately inhibitory activity with IC50 values ranging from 13.89 to 31.62 μmol·L(-1). In conclusion, our results provided a basis for future development and modification of these compounds for cancer therapy.

In the present study, scapaundulin C (1), a new labdane diterpenoid, and four related known compounds scapaundulin A (2), 5α, 8α, 9α-trihydroxy-13E-labden-12-one (3), 5α, 8α-dihydroxy-13E-labden-12-one (4), and (13S)-15-hydroxylabd-8 (17)-en-19-oic acid (5), were isolated from the Chinese liverwort Scapania undulate (L.) Dum., using column chromatography. The structures of these compounds were determined on the basis of 1D- and 2D-NMR analyses. The acetylcholinesterase (AchE) inhibitory activity was evaluated using a bioautographic TLC assay and the cytotoxic activity was evaluated by the MTT method. All the compounds were reported for the first time to exhibit moderate AchE inhibitory activity with minimal inhibitory quantities ranging from 250 to 500 ng. All the compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity against five human tumor cell lines, A549, K562, A2780, Hela, and HT29, and compounds 3 and 4 exhibited moderate inhibitory effects on the growth of A2780 cells.
