RESUMEN
The present study was designed to isolate and characterize novel chemical constituents of the stem bark of Juglans mandshurica Maxim. (Juglandaceae). The chemical constituents were isolated and purified by various chromatographic techniques. The structures of the compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectral data (1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS, CD, UV, and IR) and by the comparisons of spectroscopic data with the reported values in the literatures. Two long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (1 and 2) were obtained and identified as (S)-(8E,10E)-12-hydroxy-7-oxo-8,10-octadecadienoic acid (1) and (S)-(8E, 10E)-12-hydroxy-7-oxo-8,10-octadecadienoic acid methyl ester (2). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the isolation and structural elucidation of the two new conjugated ketonic fatty acids from this genus.

Two new anthraquinones, melrubiellin C (1) and melrubiellin D (2), were isolated from the aerial parts of Melandrium firmum Rohrbach, together with eight known compounds (3-10). The structures of these compounds were elucidated using 1D and 2D NMR (COSY, HMQC, HMBC and NOESY) experiments. All isolated compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity against NCI-H460, Hep G2, MKN-28 and A-549 cells. Of these 10 compounds, 1 and 2 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 9.54 to 32.41 µM.

Two new (1 and 3) and two known diarylheptanoids (2 and 4), along with two tetralones (5 and 6), one naphthoquinone (7), four phenylpropanoids (8-11), and one phenol (12) were isolated from the leaves of Juglans mandshurica. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral and chemical data. Compounds 2 and 10 are firstly isolated from this plant and 8 and 12 were isolated from the Juglans genus for the first time. Among these compounds, only 7 exhibited moderate cytotoxicities against cultured MGC-803, A549, K562, and HeLa tumor cell lines with IC50 values of 25.90, 28.60, 39.06, 44.90 µM, respectively.

Phytochemical investigation of the MeOH extract of the root barks of Cudrania tricuspidata Bureau (Moraceae), as guided by hepatoprotective activity in vitro, furnished four isoprenylated xanthones, cudratricusxanthone A (1), cudraxanthone L (2), cudratricusxanthone E (3), and macluraxanthone B (4). All of these compounds showed the significant hepatoprotective effect on tacrine-induced cytotoxicity in human liver-derived Hep G2 cells. Compounds 1, 2, and 4 also exhibited the significant hepatoprotective effect on nitrofurantoin-induced cytotoxicity in human liver-derived Hep G2 cells.
