New Labdane-type diterpenoids and anti-inflammatory constituents from Hedychium coronarium

Int J Mol Sci. 2013 Jun 25;14(7):13063-77. doi: 10.3390/ijms140713063.

Abstract

Four new labdane-type diterpenoids: hedychicoronarin (1), peroxycoronarin D (2), 7β-hydroxycalcaratarin A (3), and (E)-7β-hydroxy-6-oxo-labda-8(17),12-diene-15,16-dial (4), have been isolated from the rhizomes of Hedychium coronarium, together with 13 known compounds (5-17). The structures of these new compounds were determined through spectroscopic and MS analyses. Compounds 3, 5, 6, and 10 exhibited inhibition (IC50 values ≤4.52 μg/mL) of superoxide anion generation by human neutrophils in response to formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine/cytochalasin B (fMLP/CB). Compounds 3-6, 10, and 11 inhibited fMLP/CB-induced elastase release with IC50 values ≤6.17 μg/mL.
