Here we evaluated the inhibitory effects of bergenin analogues (2-10), prepared from naturally occurring bergenin, (1) on β-secretase (BACE1) activity. All the bergenin analogues that were analyzed inhibited BACE1 in a dose-dependent manner. 11-O-protocatechuoylbergenin (5) was the most potent inhibitor, with an IC₅₀ value of 0.6 ± 0.07 μM. The other bergenin analogues, in particular, 11-O-3',4'-dimethoxybenzoyl)-bergenin (6), 11-O-vanilloylbergenin (7), and 11-O-isovanilloylbergenin (8), inhibited BACE1 activity with IC₅₀ values of <10.0 μM. BACE1 inhibitory activity was influenced by the substituents of the benzoic acid moiety. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the structure-activity relationships (SAR) in the BACE1 inhibitory activities of bergenin analogues. These bergenin analogues may be useful in studying the mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease.
在此,我们评估了由天然存在的岩白菜素(1)制备的岩白菜素类似物(2 - 10)对β-分泌酶(BACE1)活性的抑制作用。所有分析的岩白菜素类似物均以剂量依赖性方式抑制BACE1。11 - O - 原儿茶酰岩白菜素(5)是最有效的抑制剂,IC₅₀值为0.6±0.07μM。其他岩白菜素类似物,特别是11 - O - (3',4'-二甲氧基苯甲酰基)-岩白菜素(6)、11 - O - 香草酰岩白菜素(7)和11 - O - 异香草酰岩白菜素(8),抑制BACE1活性的IC₅₀值<10.0μM。BACE1抑制活性受苯甲酸部分取代基的影响。据我们所知,这是关于岩白菜素类似物对BACE1抑制活性的构效关系(SAR)的首次报道。这些岩白菜素类似物可能有助于研究阿尔茨海默病的发病机制。
