Abstract

:

Sesquiterpenes constitute the principal components of the genus Ainsliaea, encompassing guaiane, germacrane, eudesmane, and polymer sesquiterpene lactones types. These secondary metabolites exhibit diverse pharmacological activities, including antitumor, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, and neuroprotective effects. Through a comprehensive literature search of the Web of Science, PubMed, SciFinder, and CNKI databases, it was discovered that there are as many as 145 main sesquiterpenoids in the genus Ainsliaea. However, the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data for the sesquiterpenes in this genus have not been systematically compiled and summarized. Therefore, this review aims to highlight the chemical structures, NMR data, and pharmacological activities of sesquiterpenes in Ainsliaea. By meticulously analyzing published scholarly literature, our goal is to provide a solid foundation for further exploration of new sesquiterpenes and extensive utilization of this genus.

Keywords:

Ainsliaea; sesquiterpenes; nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR); structure analysis

1. Introduction

Ainsliaea is a perennial herb, with over seventy species mainly distributed in southeast Asia. In China, there are forty-four species and four varieties. The majority of these plants are found around the Yangtze River Basin, with only one species distributed in the northeast. They are typically harvested in summer and autumn, and the entire plants are used for Chinese medicinal purposes [1]. According to the ‘Supplements to the Compendium of Materia Medica’, it is documented that Ainsliaea has a sweet and mild taste, cold properties, and belongs to the lung, spleen, and large-intestine meridians. The ‘Comprehensive Dictionary of Chinese Herbal Medicine’ states that Ainsliaea has the functions of clearing heat, promoting diuresis, cooling blood, and detoxification. Ainsliaea fragrans Champ. Is the primary ingredient in the national protected Chinese medicine ‘Xingxiang Tu’erfeng’ herbal granules and herbal tablets.

Since the 1980s, several studies have been conducted on the chemical composition and pharmacological activities of the genus Ainsliaea, leading to the discovery of over 400 compounds. The chemical constituents of this genus mainly include sesquiterpenoids, triterpenoids, steroids and their derivatives, phenolic acids, flavonoids, anthraquinones, coumarins, lignans, essential oils, and other components. Chemical studies have revealed that sesquiterpenes are the characteristic components of Ainsliaea plants [2,3]. The investigation has shown that sesquiterpenes in Ainsliaea plants mainly consist of guaiane, germacrane, eudesmane, polymer sesquiterpene lactones, and others [4]. However, NMR spectroscopy data for these sesquiterpenes derivatives have not been reported. This paper aims to provide references for the analysis and identification of new structural compounds by summarizing the ¹H- and/or ¹³C-NMR data of 145 sesquiterpenes from the genus Ainsliaea between 1979 and 2022 through consulting the relevant literature.

2. Guaiane-Type Sesquiterpene

Guaiane sesquiterpenes are a class of compounds with three isoprene units consisting of 5,7 fused rings, which are substituted by 4,10-dimethyl-7-isopropyl moieties as the basic nucleus. These compounds possess antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, neuroprotective, and other biological activities [5]. Thus far, a total of 63 guaiane sesquiterpenes have been reported in this genus, mainly 12,6 guaiacan-type sesquiterpene lactones. The structures and detailed information are listed in Figure 1 and Table 1.

2.2. Bioactivity of Guaiane Sesquiterpenes

2.2.1. Anti-Inflammatory

Nitric oxide (NO) is a related target of inflammation, and inhibiting the release of NO can treat inflammatory diseases. Dihydroestafiatol (13), zaluzanin C (23), and dehydrozaluzanin C (31) strongly inhibited the production of nitric oxide in RAW264.7 macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), with IC₅₀ values of 7.11, 2.50, and 0.82 µM [31]. From the bioassay results, three exocyclic double bonds in guaianolides play a key role in the inhibition of the production of nitric oxide (NO), and a reduction in exocyclic double bonds will lower the inhibitory effect. Under the condition of the presence of three exocyclic double bonds, the hydroxylization of C-1 will enhance the inhibitory activity. Zaluzanin C (23) showed a potent inhibitory effect against NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages with an IC₅₀ value of 6.54 ± 0.16 μM [34]. It may be speculated that the α-methylene-γ-lactone moiety of zaluzanin C (23) has a key role in its inhibition of NO release. Moreover, other functional groups, especially hydroxyl, have a great influence on the inhibitory effect of NO production. Zaluzanin C (23) showed remarkable inhibition against NO release in LPS-induced RAW264.7 macrophages, possibly because zaluzanin C (23) had an α-methylene-γ-lactone moiety and the large isovaleroxyl at C-3 hinders the binding of the compound to related proteins [37]. Guailactone can be structurally modified to obtain compounds containing the α-methylene-γ-lactone part. It is also used to introduce hydroxyl groups into guaiacols containing three outer-ring double bonds to enhance the inhibitory ability of these compounds against NO production and achieve anti-inflammatory effects.

Ainslide C (41), ainsliaolide A (34), diaspanolide B (39), zaluzanin C (23), and estafiatone (28) inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activity by inhibiting the LDH release rate. Meanwhile, a Western blot assay showed that compound 41 inhibited the activity of inflammasome by inhibiting the production of Caspase-1 and IL-1β induced by LPS and Nigericin. Among them, the substituents of compounds 41, 34, 39, 23, and 28 are terminal double bonds, and the α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone structure seems to be the key to inhibiting LDH release activity [7]. Glucozaluzanin C (57) and dihydroestafiatol (13) showed significant anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting the expression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in the 293-NF-κB-luciferase reporter cell line and the production of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 in RAW264.7 macrophages induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) [47].

8α-Hydroxy-11α,13-dihydrozaluzanin C (20) showed moderate COX-1-inhibiting activity with an IC₅₀ value of 78.8 μM, comparable to that of the representative anti-inflammatory drug aspirin with an IC₅₀ value of 77.2 μM. 8α-Hydroxy-11α,13-dihydrozaluzanin C (20) and 2′-O-E-Caffeoyl-8α-hydroxy-11α,13-dihydro-3-β-O-β-D-glucozaluzanin C (60) displayed potent COX-2 inhibitory activities with IC₅₀ values ranging from 12.5 to 57.9 μM, in comparison with that of aspirin with an IC₅₀ value of 87.6 μM [45].

2.2.2. Antitumor and Cytotoxic

8-Epidesacylcinaropicrin (25) exhibited moderate activity toward the human tumor cell lines MDA-MB-231 and HepG2, with IC₅₀ values of 18.91, and 11.16 μM, respectively [8]. Mokko lactone (9), zaluzanin C (23), and glucozaluzanin C (57) showed non-specific significant cytotoxicity against the A549 (non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma), SK-OV-3 (ovarian), SK-MEL-2 (skin melanoma), XF498 (CNS), and HCT15 (colon) cell lines with ED₅₀ values ranging from 0.36 to 5.54 μg/mL [12]. Dehydrozaluzanin C (31) is a guaiacol lactone, which has significant cytotoxicity to RAW264.7 macrophages. In the presence of three outer-ring double bonds, the carbonylation of C-1 may result in a high cytotoxicity to RAW264.7 macrophages [31].

2.2.3. Antiobesity

Ainsliaside A (59) isolated from Ainsliaea acerifolia had significant inhibitory activity on pancreatic lipase with a semi-inhibitory concentration of 15.3 ± 0.7 μM. In addition, ainsliaside A (59) also exhibited potent inhibitory effects against 3T3-L1 adipocyte cells and can be used as a potential antiobesity agent [43].

3. Germacrane-Type Sesquiterpenes

Germacrane sesquiterpenes represent a class of sesquiterpenes that are extensively distributed in Compositae plants, characterized by the formation of a substantial ten-membered ring structure at the 5 and 10 positions. Currently, all twelve germacrane-type sesquiterpenes reported from this genus are lactones, with lactone rings predominantly located at the C-6, C-7 and C-7, C-8 positions. Detailed information is presented in Figure 2 and Table 12.

The ¹H-NMR data of compound 64 were measured at a frequency of 300 MHz; however, no literature reports exist regarding the proton data for compound 70. The carbon spectra for compounds 64 and 70 were acquired at 75 MHz and 25.2 MHz, respectively.

3.2. Bioactivity of Germacrane-Type Sesquiterpene

Isodihydrocostunolide (64) showed moderate cytotoxicity against the human cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 (IC₅₀ = 18.2 μM) and HepG2 (IC₅₀ = 12.2 μM), respectively [11]. Ainsliaea latifolia A (75), isolated from Ainsliaea latifolia, exhibited moderate activity against the HCT116 and SMMC-7721 human tumor cell lines when adriamycin was used as the positive control, with IC₅₀ values of 14.72 and 10.53 μM [52].

4. Eudesmane Sesquiterpenes

The basic skeleton of eudesmane-type sesquiterpenes consists of two six-membered rings comprising a total of 15 carbon atoms. These compounds exhibit a diverse range of biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, antibacterial, antimalarial, insecticidal, and neuroprotective activities [53]. Up to now, 35 eudesmane-type sesquiterpenes have been reported within this genus. Their structures and detailed information are shown in Figure 3 and Table 15.

Compounds 78, 91, 105, and 106 have not been described within any available literature concerning their ¹³C NMR spectra.

4.2. Bioactivity of Eudesman-Type Sesquiterpene

Eucalyptane sesquiterpenes exert anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the activity of the NLRP3 inflammasome and inhibiting the production of NO in RAW264.7 macrophages. Cyperusol C (79) derived from Ainsliaea pertyoides can inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activity by inhibiting the LDH release rate [7]. Ainsliatone B (94) strongly inhibited the production of nitric oxide in RAW264.7 macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), with IC₅₀ values of 8.78 µM [31].

Isoalantolactone (104) remarkably inhibited the proliferation of MGC803 cell lines with IC₅₀ values of 2.2 ± 0.2 μM. Double-bond moieties may be necessary for its cytotoxicity [34]. Alantolactone (103) exhibited significant inhibition against the human tumor cell lines A549, HCT116, MGC803, and CCRF-CEM with IC₅₀ values of 3.56, 2.23, 2.89, and 14.67 µM, respectively [39].

5. Polymer Sesquiterpene Lactones

In Ainsliaea plants, polymer sesquiterpene lactones are typically formed through the polymerization of two or three sesquiterpene units; most monomeric precursors belong to guaiane sesquiterpenes. The structures of the 25 reported polymer sesquiterpene lactones can be found in Figure 4 and Table 21.

5.1. NMR Data of Polymer Sesquiterpene Lactones (111–135)

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy are summarized in Table 22, Table 23, Table 24, Table 25 and Table 26. This paper also provides an overview of the nuclear magnetic resonance testing instruments used for compounds 111–135.

Data for compounds 128, 129, and 135 were performed on the Bruker Avance III-600 instrument. NMR data collection for compounds 133 and 134 was conducted using the Bruker Avance 400 instrument.

5.2. Bioactivity of Polymer Sesquiterpene Lactones

5.2.1. Antitumor and Cytotoxic

Polymer sesquiterpene lactones inhibit the activity of tumor cell lines or cancer cell lines. The dimeric sesquiterpene lactone japonicone A (115) showed significant inhibitory activity against the three tested human tumor cell lines 95D, MDA-MB-231, and HepG2, with IC₅₀ values of 9.10, 3.82, and 1.43 μM, respectively [8]. Ainsliatriolide C (131), ainsliadimer B (116), and ainsliatrimer B (134) were isolated from Ainsliaea yunnanensis and showed very significant selective cytotoxic activities on MDA-MB-468, PANC-1, HEPG2, and A549 cells, and IC₅₀ values from 5.1 μM to 34.4 μM [81]. With DOX (doxorubicin) as the positive control, the antitumor activity of the isolated compounds against A549, LOVO, CEM, and MDA-MB-M-435 (MDA) was detected by an MTT assay. Both Ainsliatrimer A (133) and ainsliatrimer B (134) showed potent cytotoxicites against the LOVO and CEM cell lines [75]. Ainsliatriolide A (130) and ainsliatriolide B (135) exhibited stronger cytotoxicity on A-549, HT-29, BEL-7402, and HL-60 cancer cell lines, especially ainsliatriolide A (130) which displayed potent cytotoxicity with an averaged IC₅₀ value of 1.17 μM against four cancer cell lines [80].

With cisplatin as a positive control, the cytotoxicity of the compounds isolated from Ainsliaea fragrans was tested in the five cancer cell lines of C6 rat glioma cells, Huh1, HCC-LM3 human hepatocellular carcinoma cells, PANC-1 human pancreatic cells, and Hela human cervical cancer cells. The cytotoxicity results showed that ainsfragolide (132) is an unusual guaianolide sesquiterpene trimer, which is generated by a new C2″–C15″ bond and has a significant inhibitory effect on five cancer cells with a half-inhibitory concentration value in the range of 0.4–8.3 μM. Three trimers ainsfragolide (132), ainsliatrimer A (133), and ainsliatrimer B (134) showed more potent cytotoxic effect against the five test cancer cells than the dimers. When compared with ainsliatrimer B (134), the decreased activity of ainsliatrimer A (133) indicated that the introduction of an extra hydroxy group at the C-10 position is important for the resultant cytotoxicity. Similarly, the dimers gochnatiolide A (119) and gochnatiolide B (125) with a C-10 OH group were more cytotoxic than gochnatiolide C (124), respectively. Furthermore, gochnatiolide A (119) with a β-configuration of OH-10 was about 2–10-fold more active than gochnatiolide B (125) with α-OH at C-10. In contrast, ainsliadimer B (116) with 10β–OH and OH-15 groups showed reduced activity [78]. Therefore, we can try to obtain a trimer with a β-configuration hydroxyl at the C-10 position and no hydroxyl at the C-15 position by synthesis or structural modification, so as to improve the cytotoxic activity of polymer sesquiterpene lactones against cancer cells.

5.2.2. Anti-Inflammatory

Macrocephadiolide A (114) and macrocephadiolide B (111) showed a potent inhibitory effect on nitric oxide (NO) production, with IC₅₀ values of 0.99 and 6.13 µM, respectively, on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages. Macrocephadiolide A (114) dose-dependently suppressed the expression of inducible NO oxidase (iNOS) through inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activation [72]. Ainsliadimer A (113) represents an unusual carbon skeleton with a cyclopentane system connecting the two monomeric sesquiterpene lactone units. This unique molecule exerted potent inhibitory activity against the production of nitric oxide in RAW264.7 cells stimulated by LPS, with an IC₅₀ value of 2.41 µg/mL [73]. Gochnatiolide A (119) showed significant anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting the expression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in the 293-NF-κB-luciferase reporter cell line and the production of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 in RAW264.7 macrophages induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) [47]. The anti-inflammatory effects of polymer sesquiterpene lactones in Ainsliaea are achieved by inhibiting the production of nitric oxide (NO) in RAW264.7 macrophages, inhibiting the activity of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in the luciferase 293-NF-κB-luciferase reporter cell line, and inhibiting the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 in RAW264.7 macrophages.

5.2.3. Other Biological Activities

The polymer sesquiterpene lactones also have antibacterial and blood-sugar regulation effects. Ainsliatrimer B (134) also showed a medium inhibiting effect on Bacillus subtilis with a MIC value of 32 μg/mL [81]. Macrocephatriolide B (128) showed potent inhibition against protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) with an IC₅₀ value of 26.26 ± 0.88 μM. In insulin-stimulated C2C12 myotubes, macrocephatriolide B (128) dose-dependently enhanced glucose uptake by activating the insulin signaling pathway and might represent a new scaffold of insulin sensitizers [79].

6. Other Sesquiterpenoids

Beyond those mentioned above, there exist other categories of sesquiterpenoids and their derivatives, such as myrrhanes, lananes, and carabanes. And further details can be referenced in Figure 5 and Table 27.

6.1. NMR Data of Other Sesquiterpenoids 136–145

The NMR spectra of ¹H and ¹³C are summarized in Table 28 and Table 29. This paper also compiles data regarding the nuclear magnetic resonance testing instruments used for the compounds numbered from 136 to 145. The ¹H and ¹³C data of compound 136 were recorded using a Bruker instrument operating at 300 MHz. For compound 137, NMR data collection was performed with the Bruker-Avance-III-400 instrument (Bruker, Switzerland). For compound 140, the NMR data were conducted on a Bruker AMX 400 instrument (Bruker, Zurich, Switzerland). The NMR data for compound 141 were taken with a Bruker Avance-500 instrument (Bruker, Switzerland). Both the ¹H and ¹³C data of compound 143 were measured using JEOL Lamda 400 (JEOL, Japan) and Lamda 600 instruments (JEOL, Japan). Finally, compounds 144 and 145 had their respective ¹H and ¹³C data collected via the JEOL JNM-GX400 instrument (JEOL, Japan). The ¹H data for compounds 138, 139, and 142 were measured at frequencies of 600 MHz, 300 MHz, and 400 MHz, respectively. The ¹³C NMR of compounds 138, 139, and 142 were tested under 150 MHZ, 75 MHZ, and 100 MHZ, respectively.

6.2. Bioactivity of Other Sesquiterpenoids

At the concentration of 10 μMol/L, ainsliaea acid A (138) significantly inhibited nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in lipopolysaccharides-induced 293-NF-κB-luciflucidase reporter cell lines with a inhibitory rate of 17.5%. Further experiments showed that ainsliaea acid A (138) exerted anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the production of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, and IL-10 in RAW264.7 macrophages induced by LPS [67].

7. Conclusions

Sesquiterpenoids derived from plants of the genus Ainsliaea exhibit a wealth of pharmacological activities, demonstrating significant antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiobesity effects. Currently, the existing literature primarily focuses on the chemical composition and pharmacological effects of these plants; however, comprehensive NMR data summarizing the related components remain scarce. This paper consolidates the ¹H- and/or ¹³C-NMR data for sesquiterpenes extracted from Ainsliaea species, and the pharmacological activities of sesquiterpenes are summarized, thereby providing a valuable reference for discovering novel sesquiterpenes and differentiating between various types. It also offers essential data support for structural analysis and compound identification. Additionally, exploring new sesquiterpene constituents is crucial for investigating their pharmacodynamic material basis, as well as their structure–activity relationships and mechanisms of action, and enriching the diversity of natural products.

The sesquiterpenoids found in the plants of Ainsliaea are mostly guaiane and eudesmane, and the active ingredients found are mostly guaiane and polymer sesquiterpene lactones. Guaiacanolactone containing a α-methylene-γ-lactone moiety and guaiac lactones containing hydroxyl groups with three outer-ring double bonds have a significant inhibitory effect on NO production. Trimeric sesquiterpene lactones with a β-configuration hydroxyl at the C-10 position and without a hydroxyl group at C-15 have high cytotoxic activity. Therefore, it is of great significance to find compounds containing these components in natural products or to obtain these compounds through synthesis and structural modification to improve the anti-inflammatory activity of guaiane sesquiterpenes and the cytotoxic activity of polymer sesquiterpene lactones. The limited amount of germacrane and other sesquiterpenes reported within this genus renders the data support for structural analysis and identification of these compounds insufficiently convincing. It is essential to conduct further investigations into their chemical constituents, identify additional sesquiterpenes, and enhance the diversity of sesquiterpene types within the genus. Moreover, a comprehensive summary of the NMR spectral data pertaining to triterpenoids, steroids and their derivatives, phenolic acids, flavonoids, anthraquinones, coumarins, lignans, and other components remains lacking and needs to be further summarized.
