Isolation and structure elucidation of constituents of Citrus limon, Isodon japonicus, and Lansium domesticum as the cancer prevention agents

説明

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>In the course of our research to investigate the cancer prevention potency of natural products derived from plant materials, we isolated fifty-five compounds, including twenty-one new compounds from the peels of <jats:italic>Citrus limon</jats:italic>, aerial parts of <jats:italic>Isodon japonicus</jats:italic>, and leaves of <jats:italic>Lansium domesticum.</jats:italic> The chemical structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by chemical/physicochemical evidence, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry results. Moreover, the absolute stereochemistry of the new compounds were elucidated by various techniques such as chemical synthesis, modified Mosher’s method, Cu-Kα X-ray crystallographic analysis, and comparison of experimental and predicted electronic circular dichroism data. The antimutagenic effects of the isolated and structure-elucidated compounds against heterocyclic amines, 3-amino-1,4-dimethyl-5<jats:italic>H</jats:italic>-pyrido [4,3-<jats:italic>b</jats:italic>]indole (Trp-P-1) and 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-<jats:italic>b</jats:italic>]pyridine (PhIP), were evaluated by the Ames test and in vivo micronucleus test. In this review, we present the comprehensive results of the antimutagenic effects of the isolated natural products.</jats:p>
