Abstract

Two new triterpenoids, 30-hydroxylup-20(29)-ene 3β-caffeate (1) and 24-nor-friedelan-6α,10-dihydroxy-1,2-dioxo-4,7-dien-29-oic acid (2), together with eight known compounds 3-10, were isolated from the roots of Celastrus stylosus. The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first study on the chemical constituents of C. stylosus. The antiproliferative activities of the triterpenoids against six human Cancer cell lines (PANC-1, A549, PC-3, HepG2, SGC-7901, and HCCLM3) were evaluated. Compounds 3, 4, and 10 exhibited comparable activities against PC-3 and HCCLM3 cell lines as the positive control taxol.
