Dimeric Diarylheptanoids with Neuroprotective Activities from Rhizomes of Alpinia officinarum
Two novel dimeric diarylheptanoids, alpinidinoids A [(±)-1] and B (2), with two unusual coupling patterns, together with a new naturally occurring diarylheptanoid dimer possessing a rare pyridine ring linkage (alpinidinoid C, 3), were isolated from the rhizomes of Alpinia officinarum.

Summary: | Two novel dimeric diarylheptanoids, alpinidinoids A [(±)-1] and B (2), with two unusual coupling patterns, together with a new naturally occurring diarylheptanoid dimer possessing a rare pyridine ring linkage (alpinidinoid C, 3), were isolated from the rhizomes of Alpinia officinarum. Their structures including absolute configurations were determined by extensive spectroscopic methods and theoretical calculations. All isolates were examined for their neuroprotective activities against oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) damage in primary cortical neurons. Remarkably, the dextrorotatory enantiomer of alpinidinoid A [(+)-1] significantly ameliorated OGD/R-induced neuronal apoptosis, which was dependent on the activation of the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. |
