Bioactive Terpenoids from Salvia plebeia: Structures, NO Inhibitory Activities, and Interactions with iNOS
2016
A phytochemical investigation to obtain new NO inhibitors resulted in the identification of six new (1–6) and four known (7–10) terpenoids from Salvia plebeia. Compounds 1 and 2 are new diterpenoids, 3–5 are new meroditerpenoids, 6–9 are sesquiterpenoids, and 10 is a known meroditerpenoid. The structures of these isolates were determined by routine NMR experiments and X-ray diffraction, as well as the electronic circular dichroism spectra. Compounds 1–4 are diterpenoids carrying an oxygen bridge, and 6 is a rare copane-type sesquiterpenoid with a bridged tricyclic framework. The isolates inhibited NO generation induced by lipopolysaccharide in BV-2 cells. The possible mechanism of NO inhibition of some bioactive compounds was also investigated using molecular docking, which revealed interactions of bioactive compounds with the iNOS protein.
