Abstract
Four pairs of aryldihydronapthalene-type lignanamide enantiomers were isolated from Solanum lyratum (Solanaceae). The enantiomeric separation was accomplished by chiral-phase HPLC, and five undescribed compounds were elucidated. Analysis by various spectroscopy and ECD calculations, the structures of undescribed compounds were illuminated. The neuroprotective effects of all compounds were evaluated using H2O2-induced human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells and AchE inhibition activity. Among them, compound 4a exhibited remarkable neuroprotective effects at high concentrations of 25 and 50 μmol/L comparable to Trolox. Compound 1a showed the highest AchE inhibition with the IC50 value of 3.06 ± 2.40 μmol/L. Molecular docking of the three active compounds was performed and the linkage between the compounds and the active site of AchE was elucidated.
