New cerebrosides from the polar starfish Leptasterias polaris acervata and their cardioprotective and anti-inflammatory activity
摘要
Two new cerebrosides leptasteriacerebroside A (1) and B (2) were isolated from the starfish Leptasterias polaris acervata, together with two known ones (2S,3R,4E,9Z)-1-O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-2-[(2R)-2-hydroxyhexadecanoylamino]-4,9-docosadien-3-ol (3) and astrocerebroside B (4). The structures of the isolated compounds were characterized using spectroscopic techniques HRESIMS, ESIMS/MS, 1D and 2D NMR as well as by chemical modification and subsequent analysis of derivatives. The antimicrobial, urease inhibitory, cytotoxic, and cytoprotective activities of compounds 1–4 were investigated. Notably, compound 1 exhibited significant protection of H9c2 cardiomyocytes against CoCl2-induced toxicity, while compounds 2 and 4 demonstrated efficacy in mitigating TNF-α-mediated cytotoxicity, likely through inhibition of the NF-κB-dependent inflammatory pathway.
