Synthesis of 5,6-Dihydro-OSW-1 and Its Antitumor Activities

5,6-Dihydro-OSW-1 (1) was synthesized following our previous procedure for the total synthesis of OSW-1. This compound demonstrated slightly stronger potency than that of OSW-1 against the growth of cancer cells.     

Study on Extraction Process of Root of Henry Wood Betony Polysaccharides and Their Antitumor Activity against S180

We optimized the hot water extraction of polysaccharides from the root of Henry wood betony (RHWPs) using a uniform test and explored their anti-tumor activities in vitro and in vivo. The optimal extraction conditions were as follows: 40 min extraction time, liquid/solid ratio 30 mL/g, 100 min soaking time, two extraction cycles, 100% ethanol concentration, and extraction temperature of 80 °C. The molecular weight distribution of RHWPs with MWs was 228,600 g/mol and 5001 g/mol. The IR spectrum further indicated that RHWPs are acidic polysaccharides containing pyranose and furan rings. The main monosaccharides found in RHWPs were mannose, ribose, l-rhamnose monohydrate, glucuronic acid, galacturonic acid, glucose, galactose, xylose, arabinose, and fucose. RHWPs inhibited the proliferation of S180 tumor cells and induced apoptosis in vitro. Oral administration of RHWPs to tumor-bearing mice significantly inhibited the growth of the S180 xenografts, accelerated apoptosis in tumor cells, and expanded the necrotic regions. Furthermore, RHWPs also markedly increased the levels of TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-2 in the sera of tumor-bearing mice, and activated immune cells such as lymphocytes, NK cells, and macrophages, thereby inducing tumor cell apoptosis. Taken together, RHWPs are a promising anti-tumor agent that ought to be explored further.     

若干3d过渡金属的硫代脯氨酸配合物

合成了七个新的过渡金属的硫代脯氨酸(tcH)配合物,它们分别是:[M(tc)_2](M=Mn(Ⅱ),Co((Ⅱ))和Ni(Ⅱ)),[Ni(tc)(Ac)(H_2O)],[Ni(tc)(tcH)(H_2O)]NO_3·H_2O,[Ni(tc)(Py)_2(H_2O)NO_3和[Fe(tc)_2(Cl)(H_2O)]。上述配合物的磁化率,摩尔电导,热量分析,红外及电子光谱数据表明,它们都具有八面体构型,tcH主要通过亚氨氮和羧基氧原子与金属键合。文章对这些配合物的可能结构作了初步的讨论。
