Biological Activity of Methyllucidone

Description1. Methyllucidone may have a neuroprotective potential via inhibition of neurotoxic microglial activation implicated in neurodegeneration. 2. Methyllucidone can strongly inhibit the growth of human cancer cells and colon tumor xenografted in nude mice, the anti-tumor effects are further confirmed with caspase-3 activation and degradation of PARP. 3. Methyllucidone shows 85% antifungal activity at 50 against the disease wheat leaf rust.

Cyclopentenediones, inhibitors of farnesyl protein transferase and anti-tumor compounds, isolated from the fruit of Lindera erythrocarpa Makino.[Pubmed:16055336]

Bioorg Med Chem. 2005 Nov 15;13(22):6182-7.

Four cyclopentenediones, farnesyl protein transferase inhibitors, and anti-tumor compounds were isolated from the methanolic extract of the fruits of Lindera erythrocarpa Makino (Lauraceae). The structure of the compounds was determined by spectral data including NMR and mass spectrometry, and cyclopentenediones such as methyllinderone (1), Methyllucidone (2), lucidone (3), and linderone (4) were identified by comparing their reported spectral data with that of the literature values. Compounds 1-4 inhibited farnesyl protein transferase with IC50 value of 55.3+/-4.1, 42+/-1.9, 103+/-5.1, and 40+/-3.5 microM, respectively. Isolated compounds also inhibited the growth of various human cancer cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. Especially, Compounds 1 and 2 selectively inhibited the growth of H-ras-transformed rat-2 cell lines in comparison with normal rat-2 cells with a GI50 value of 0.3 and 0.85 microM, respectively. Methyllucidone strongly inhibited the growth of human cancer cells and colon tumor xenografted in nude mice. The anti-tumor effects of the compound were further confirmed with caspase-3 activation and degradation of PARP. The results suggest that Methyllucidone can be a potential anti-cancer agent against H-ras-transformed tumor and will also be a good lead molecule for the development of anti-tumor drug.

Neuroprotective effect of methyl lucidone against microglia-mediated neurotoxicity.[Pubmed:22683871]

Eur J Pharmacol. 2012 Sep 5;690(1-3):4-12.

Excessive microglial activation-mediated neurotoxicity has been implicated in playing a crucial role in the pathogenesis of stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, much attention has been paid to therapeutic strategies aimed at suppressing neurotoxic microglial activation. The microglial regulatory mechanism of methyl lucidone, a cyclopentenedione isolated from the stem bark of Lindera erythrocarpa Makino, was investigated in the present study. Methyl lucidone treatment (0.1-10 muM) significantly inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 100 ng/ml, 24 h)-stimulated nitric oxide (NO) production in a dose-dependent manner in both primary cortical microglia and BV-2 cell line. Moreover, it strongly inhibited LPS-stimulated secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha). Methyl lucidone treatment markedly induced down-regulation of LPS-induced nuclear translocation of nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) through preventing the degradation of the inhibitory protein IkappaBalpha. In addition, phosphorylation of Akt and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 kinases were also suppressed by methyl lucidone. The cell viabilities of HT-22 neurons were significantly attenuated by treatment of the conditioned media containing neurotoxic secretary molecules from LPS-stimulated microglia. However, methyl lucidone significantly blocked neuronal cell death induced by microglial conditioned media. These neuroprotective effects of methyl lucidone were also confirmed in a neuron-microglia co-culture system using EGFP-transfected B35 neuroblastoma cell line. Taken together, these results suggest that methyl lucidone may have a neuroprotective potential via inhibition of neurotoxic microglial activation implicated in neurodegeneration.
