Roem. (Meliaceae). Toonaone A possesses the first rare 18(13 → 14)-abeo-limonoid skeleton reported from the genus Toona. Their structures were elucidated using spectroscopic data analyses and quantum chemistry calculations. Biological evaluation showed that toonaone C, toonaone D, toonaone G, toonaciliatavarin F, and toonaciliatavarin G exhibited significant anti-NLRP3 inflammasome activity with IC values ranging from 3.74 to 18.7 μM. GMDMD, IL-1β, and caspase-1 analyses suggested that toonaone D inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation and blocked macrophage pyroptosis.
