RESUMO

Two unknown 1,2,4-oxadiazoles (3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(thiophen-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole and 5-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole) and one known 1,2,4-oxadiazole (5-(3-methoxyphenyl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole) were isolated from tubers of Neowerdermannia vorwerkii, collected from the San Juan Huancollo, Ingavi province, La Paz, Bolivia. The chemical structures of these compounds were elucidated through NMR and HRMS spectroscopic analyses. All compounds showed apoptotic capacity against the SK-HEP-1 and Caco-2 tumour cells. 5-(3-methoxyphenyl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole and 5-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,2, 4-oxadiazole showed slight apoptotic capacities, with an IC50 between 17.46 ± 0.75 to 15.91 ± 0.62 µM and 39.29 ± 0.98 to 34.81 ± 0.70 µM, respectively. 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(thiophen-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole showed a higher apoptotic capacity with an IC50 in the range of 0.98 ± 0.11 to 0.76 ± 0.03 µM, similar to that of the positive control (Dimethylenastron).

RESUMO

ETHNO-PHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: The tuber of Neowerdermannia vorwerkii commonly known as 'Achacana' is used as an infusion in Andean countries to treat various gastrointestinal ailments, kidney and liver diseases. AIM OF THE STUDY: This study determined the anti-inflammatory activity of the aqueous extract from Neowerdermannia vorwerkii and identified the compounds related to this activity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A bio-guided isolation of the active compounds of Neowerdermannia vorwerkii was carried out, selecting the sub-extracts and fractions depending on their anti-inflammatory activity in the Hs 738.St/Int, Hs 746T and NCI-N87 cells. RESULTS: Three compounds were obtained and characterised by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry. These compounds are (3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(tiophen-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (1), 5-(3-methoxyphenyl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (2) and 5-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (3). Regarding their anti-inflammatory activity, the three compounds inhibited the production of cytokines (IL-1ß, IL-6 and TNF-α), however, compound 1 was the most active, with an IC50 of 0.87 µM in all cell lines. CONCLUSION: In the present study, the anti-inflammatory activity of the aqueous extract of Neowerdermannia vorwerkii was tested and analysed, following the isolation of three 1,2,4-oxadiazoles type compounds with similar pharmacological properties.

RESUMO

ETHNO-PHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: The bark of Semialarium mexicanum commonly known as 'Cancerina' is used as an infusion in Central America and Mexico to treat various wound infections, as well as skin and vaginal ulcers. AIM OF THE STUDY: This study aimed to determine the wound healing, anti-inflammatory and anti-melanogenic activities of the aqueous extract of Semialarium mexicanum and to identify the compounds related to these activities. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A bio-guided isolation of the active compounds of Semialarium mexicanum was carried out, selecting the sub-extracts and fractions depending on their wound healing, anti-inflammatory and anti-melanogenic activities in the RAW 264.7, NIH/3T3 and B16-F10 cells. RESULTS: Three compounds were obtained and characterised by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry. These compounds are (3ß)-3-Hydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (1), (3ß)-Urs-12-ene-3,28-diol (2) and (2α, 19α)-2,19-Dihydroxy-3-oxo-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (3). Regarding the anti-inflammatory activity, the three compounds inhibited the production of NF-κB and NO, however, compound 3 was the most active with IC50 values of 8.15-8.19 µM and 8.94-9.14 µM, respectively, in all cell lines. The anti-melanogenic activity of these compounds was evaluated by the inhibition of tyrosinase and melanin in the B16-F10 cell line. The three compounds showed anti-melanogenic activity, however, compound 3 was the most active with an IC50 of 8.03 µM for the inhibition of tyrosinase production, and an IC50 of 8.53 µM for the inhibition of melanin production. Finally, concerning the wound healing activity, the three compounds presented proliferative activity in all the tested cell lines, however, compound 3 showed higher cell proliferation percentages than compounds 1 and 2 (88.89-89.60% compared to 64.92-65.71% and 71.53-71.99%, respectively). CONCLUSION: The wound healing, anti-inflammatory and anti-melanogenic activity of the aqueous extract of Semialarium mexicanum was tested and analysed in the present study, after having isolated three ursane-type triterpenes.
