New Methods of Analysis and Investigation of Terpenoid Indole Alkaloids

open access: yesAdvances in Botanical Research, 2013
Abstract Terpenoid indole alkaloids are biologically active compounds that have been used as pharmaceuticals among others as anticancer, antimalarial, antihypertensive and hypoglycemic agents for more than 40 years. Many efforts have been focused on their extraction, isolation, separation and structural elucidation by means of different approaches ...

Semi-syntheses and interrogation of indole-substituted Aspidosperma terpenoid alkaloids

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry, 2022
Aspidosperma terpenoid alkaloids can be quickly prepared using semisynthesis from naturally sourced tabersonine, featuring multiple oxygen-based substituents on the indole ring such as hydroxy and methoxy groups for cancer-targeted SAR studies.

Terpenoid indole alkaloids from Mappianthus iodoides Hand.-Mazz.

Phytochemistry, 2014
Ten terpenoid indole alkaloids, mappiodines A-C and mappiodosides A-G, together with eight known compounds, were isolated from stems of Mappianthus iodoides Hand.-Mazz. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses including 1D, 2D NMR, MS and CD methods. The ten compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity, but were inactive.

Biosynthesis of the teleocidin-type terpenoid indole alkaloids

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry, 2018
Teleocidin B is a terpenoid indole alkaloid with unique structures including indolactam and cyclic terpenoid, and is a strong protein kinase C activator. In this review, we describe the isolation and biosynthetic studies of teleocidins.

Terpenoid indole alkaloid profile changes in Catharanthus pusillus during development

Plant Science, 2001
The terpenoid indole alkaloid content of Catharanthus pusillus was investigated during development from young to old plants. Different plant organs were assessed showing that the new leaves were the main repository site with vindoline ( approximately 4.8 mg/g DW) and catharanthine ( approximately 2.2 mg/g DW) being the major metabolites with the ...

Biosynthetic pathway of terpenoid indole alkaloids in Catharanthus roseus

Frontiers of Medicine, 2014
Catharanthus roseus is one of the most extensively investigated medicinal plants, which can produce more than 130 alkaloids, including the powerful antitumor drugs vinblastine and vincristine. Here we review the recent advances in the biosynthetic pathway of terpenoid indole alkaloids (TIAs) in C.

Why are the terpenoid indole alkaloids of type I homochiral?

Chirality, 2001
AbstractIn the presence of the enzyme strictosidine synthase, the coupling reaction of secologanin and tryptamine is completely stereoselective and affords strictosidine with 3S configuration, exclusively. The stereoselectivity is transferred and retained in most indole alkaloids of type I in which C‐3 is not involved in subsequent reactions.

Strictosidine synthase, an indispensable enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of terpenoid indole and β-carboline alkaloids

Chinese Journal of Natural Medicines, 2021
Terpenoid indole (TIAs) and β-carboline alkaloids (BCAs), such as suppressant reserpine, vasodilatory yohimbine, and antimalarial quinine, are natural compounds derived from strictosidine. These compounds can exert powerful pharmacological effects but be obtained from limited source in nature. the whole biosynthetic pathway of TIAs and BCAs, The Pictet-

Analysis of Several Iridoid and Indole Precursors of Terpenoid Indole Alkaloids with a Single HPLC Run

Planta Medica, 1996
An isocratic HPLC system is described which allows the separation of the iridoid and indole precursors of terpenoid indole alkaloids, which are present in a single crude extract. The system consists of a column of LiChrospher 60 RP select B 5 microm, 250 x 4 mm (Merck) with an eluent of 1% formic acid-acetonitrile-trichloroacetic acid (100:10:0.25, v:v:
