- Abstract
Two new prostaglandin-like compounds callicarboric acids A-B (1-2), along with six known compounds (3-8) were isolated from the stems of Callicarpa arborea Roxb. Their structures were determined with the help of modern spectroscopic techniques such as NMR, UV, IR, HR-ESI-MS, ECD, and ORD with the assistance of quantum chemical calculations. Compound 1 exhibited remarkable anti-NLRP3 inflammasome activation potential, demonstrating an IC
50 value of 0.74 μM. Additionally, by reducing GSDMD-NT production, inhibiting caspase-1 activation, and suppressing IL-1β secretion, it effectively mitigated NLRP3 inflammasome-induced pyroptosis in J774A.1 cells. These findings indicate that compound 1 possesses the capability to be a valuable candidate for further research and development as an NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor., (© 2023 Wiley-VHCA AG, Zurich, Switzerland.)- Published
