Abstract

Although various diterpenoid alkaloids have been evaluated recently for antiproliferative activity against human tumor cell lines, little information is available regarding the antiproliferative effects of C₂₀-diterpenoid alkaloids against MCF-7 cells. Six new diterpenoid alkaloid derivatives (13, 14, 22, 23, 25, 26) were prepared by C-11 and 15 esterification of kobusine (6). The natural parent alkaloid 6 and all synthesized derivatives (7 − 27, 12a, 15a, 15b, 18a, 18b) were evaluated for antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 cells. The structure-based design strategy resulted in an initial lead derivative, 11,15-dibenzoylkobusine (7; IC₅₀ 8.6 µM). Subsequent synthesized 11,15-diacylkobusine derivatives (9, 16, 20, 21, 23, 25, and 26) showed substantially increased suppressive effects against the MCF-7 cell line (IC₅₀ 2.3−4.4 µM). In contrast, parent alkaloid 6, two 11-acylkobusine derivatives (15a, 18a), and two 15-acylkobusine derivatives (15b, 18b) showed no effect. 11,15-Diacylation appears to be critical for producing antiproliferative activity in this alkaloid class and could introduce a new avenue in overcoming breast cancer cell proliferation using natural product derivatives. In a preliminary mechanism of action study, representative derivatives (5, 8, 9, and 17) decreased cyclin D1 mRNA expression.
