Abstract: | The hexane extract from the leaves of Canella winterana exhibited strong activity against the chloroquine sensitive (CQS) strain of Plasmodium falciparum (D10) in vitro (IC50 2.53 microg/mL). Bioassay guided fractionation of this extract has led to the isolation of 5 drimane-type sesquiterpenoids: 9-epideoxymuzigadial, 9-deoxymuzigadial, muzigadial, 3-beta-acetoxypolygodial and the newly isolated hemiacetal, named muzigodiol, with IC50-values of 1.01, 2.19, 0.31, 2.77 and 7.43 microg/mL, respectively. The first four compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity using Chinese Hamster Ovarian (CHO) cells, where they showed IC50-values of 1.82, 33.69, 1.18, and 58.31 microg/mL, respectively. A structure-activity relationship is discussed. |
