Abstract: Zhankuic acid A (ZAA) is the major pharmacologically active compound of Taiwanofungus camphoratus. We analyzed the structure of human TLR4/MD-2 complex with ZAA by X-score and HotLig modeling approaches. Two antibodies against MD-2 were used to verify the MD-2/ZAA interaction. The inflammation and survival of the mice pretreated with ZAA and injected with LPS were monitored. The modeling structure shows that ZAA binds the MD-2 hydrophobic pocket exclusively via specific molecular recognition; the contact interface is dominated by hydrophobic interactions. Binding of ZAA to MD-2 reduced antibody recognition to native MD-2, similar to the effect of LPS binding. Furthermore, ZAA significantly ameliorated LPS-induced endotoxemia and Salmonella-induced diarrhea in mice. Our results indicate that ZAA, which can compete with LPS for binding to MD-2 as a TLR4/MD-2 antagonist, is a potential therapeutic agent for Gram-negative bacterial infections.

Abstract: Zhankuic acid A (ZAA) could suppress phosphorylation of JAK2 and JAK3 and signaling of downstream molecules. Moreover, ZAA could inhibit the IFN-?/STAT1/IRF-1 pathway in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, data show that pre-treatment with ZAA could significantly ameliorate Con A-induced hepatitis in mice. The above results strongly suggest that ZAA treatment could block JAK2 and JAK3 activation, and may be a valuable therapeutic approach for the treatment of immune cell induced inflammation.

Abstract: 2-aryl-4-quinolones are converted into phosphates by reacting with tetrabenzyl pyrophosphate to form dibenzyl phosphates thereof, which are then subject to hydrogenation to replace dibenzyl groups with H, followed by reacting with Amberlite IR-120(Na+ form) to form disodium salts. The results of preliminary screening revealed that these phosphates showed significant anti-cancer activity. A novel intermediate, 2-selenophene 4-quinolone and N,N-dialkylaminoalkyl derivatives of 2-phenyl-4-quinolones are also synthesized. These novel intermediates exhibited significant anticancer activities.
