In a bioassay guided search for antimycobacterial compounds from higher plants, the root extracts of Elecampane (Inula helenium L.; Asteraceae) and Sweet Coneflower (Rudbeckia subtomentosa Pursh.; Asteraceae) were chemically investigated for their active constituents. Chromatographic fractions of root extracts of I. helenium, which exhibited significant activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, provided the known eudesmanolides alantolactone, isoalantolactone, and 11αH,13-dihydroisoalantolactone. Peracid epoxidation of alantolactone and isoalantolactone provided 5α-epoxyalantolactone and 4(15)α-epoxyisoalantolactone, respectively and oxidation of alantolactone with OsO4 gave 11,13-dihydroxyalantolactone. Active fractions from R. subtomentosa contained the known alloalantolactone and 3- oxoalloalantolactone. The structures of the above compounds were established by spectroscopic methods including 1D and 2D NMR techniques as well as spectral comparison with previously reported data. The molecular structure of 5α-epoxyalantolactone was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Eleven natural and semisynthetic eudesmanolides were tested in a radiorespirometric bioassay for activity against M. tuberculosis. 5α- Epoxyalantolactone and encelin from Montanoa speciosa showed minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 8 and 16 μg ml-1, respectively. Alantolactone, isoalantolactone and its 4α,15-epoxide, 1,2-dehydro-3-epi- isotelekin and alloalantolactone gave MICs of 32 μg ml-1. All other compounds showed MIC values of 128 μg ml-1 or higher.

In this study, anti-IPF lead compounds 42 and 44, derived from natural sesquiterpene lactones Isoalantolactone and alantolactone, were discovered by screening from a high-throughput TGF-β1 reporter luciferase assay. Notably, they could reduce the myofibroblast activation and extracellular matrix deposition both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, compounds 42 and 44 could significantly attenuate bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice. Further validation of pharmacokinetics study and toxicity evaluation indicated that compound 44 might be a promising anti-IPF drug candidate.

Abstract—: Derivatives of sesquiterpene lactones modified at the lactone ring with a thiophenol residue have been synthesized. The resulting conjugates with thiophenol have capacity for the oxidation–elimination reaction by the action of ROS of a tumor cell with the release of initial cytotoxic lactones. It has been proposed to use the resulting sulfur-containing conjugates as ROS-activated prodrugs of sesquiterpene lactones. The antiproliferative properties of the conjugates have been examined on tumor and pseudonormal cell lines. The cytotoxicity of the conjugates is lower than that of parent lactones; however, in some cases, as with the conjugates of alantolactone with artemisiten, it remains moderate in all tumor cell lines tested.
