ABSTRACT: Four new macrocyclic lactones, bryostatin 21 (1) and 9-O-methylbryostatins 4, 16, and 17 (2−4), together with three known related compounds, bryostatins 4, 16, and 17 (5−7), have been isolated from an extract of the South China Sea bryozoan Bugula neritina. The structures of all compounds were unambiguously elucidated using detailed spectroscopic analysis. Structurally, the presence of a single methyl group at C-18 in compound 1 has not been observed before for known bryostatins. The isolated macrolides exhibited inhibitory effects against a small panel of human cancer cell lines.

Herein, we report the details of the purification and structure elucidation of these compounds, as well as the evaluation of cytotoxic activities against a variety of different human cancer cell lines.

he marine bryozoan Bugula neritina is a colonial suspension feeder widely distributed in the temperate marine environment. It is the source of bioactive metabolites, including bryostatins,1 alkaloids,2 fatty aldehydes,3 ceramides,4 cerebrosides,4 and sterols.5 Bryostatins, possessing a 26membered macrocyclic lactone with three imbedded highly functionalized pyran rings,6 have attracted much interest. During a search for cytotoxic metabolites from B. neritina initiated in 1968, potent cytotoxic activity of the extracts against lymphocytic leukemia cell lines attracted considerable interest.6 Many years of research led to the isolation and structure elucidation of the first example of this family, bryostatin 1, which was reported by Pettit and co-workers in 1982.6 To date, only 20 natural bryostatins have been obtained,7 and they exhibit a remarkable range of biological activities, including cognition and memory enhancement, cytotoxic, and synergistic chemotherapeutic activitives.1 Among the 20 known macrolides, bryostatin 1, as a unique PKC modulator, has been studied most extensively and has undergone phase I and phase II clinical trials.8 Due to their excellent bioactive properties but scarcity in nature, 9 the biological activities, structure modification, and structure−activity relationships of the bryostatins have attracted considerable interest over the past two decades.1 Our previous chemical investigation of B. neritina, collected in the South China Sea, led to the isolation of bryostatin 19.10 Recently, we demonstrated that bryostatin 5 can induce apoptosis by activating PUMA and caspases in acute monocytic leukemia cells.11 As a continuation of our studies on bryostatins, we carried out further chromatographic purification on the extracts of B. neritina, identifying four new bryostatin macrolides, 1−4, along with bryostatins 4, 16, and 17 (5−7). © XXXX American Chemical Society and American Society of Pharmacognosy

Bryostatin 21 (1) was isolated as a colorless, amorphous powder. The molecular formula was determined as C45H68O17 by an HRESIMS adduct ion peak at m/z 903.4347 ([M + Na]+), implying the presence of 12 degrees of unsaturation. The UV spectrum of 1 exhibited an absorption at 225 nm. The IR spectrum indicated the presence of hydroxy (3459 cm−1) and carbonyl (1723 cm−1) groups. These spectroscopic characteristics and the initial inspections of the 1H and 13C NMR spectra indicated that 1 is a member of the bryostatin class.12 The COSY and key HMBC correlations confirmed this hypothesis (Figure 1). The 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra of compound 1 (Table 1) were similar to those of bryostatin 4 Received: January 27, 2015

They were readily purified by HPLC and rapidly interconverted into a mixture of the Δ21,34 E and Δ21,34 Z forms at room temperature (rt) with an equilibrium ratio of 3:2 (Figure S31), which is similar to the phenomenon observed for bryostatins 16 (6) and 17 (7).13 The molecular formula of the mixture was established as C43H64O14 based on the HRESIMS data (m/z 827.4189 [M + Na]+), indicating the presence of 11 degrees of unsaturation for both compounds. In the 1H NMR spectrum belonging to compound 3, the presence of one isolated methoxy proton resonance at 9-OCH3 (δH 3.19) indicated that compound 3 was an O-methyl product of bryostatin 16.13 The key HMBC correlation of 9-OCH3 with C-9 (δC 103.3) established the presence of the methoxy group at C-9. Moreover, the structure of compound 4 was unambiguously assigned based on the HMBC correlation from 9-OCH3 (δH 3.19) to C-9 (δC 103.2). A comprehensive set of NOESY correlations observed in 3 and 4 indicated that the relative configurations in 3 and 4 were the same as for bryostatins 16 and 17, respectively (Figure S27). Because MeOH was used for the extractions, it is probable that compounds 3 and 4 are artifacts. In addition to the four new compounds 1−4, three known compounds, bryostatin 4 (5), bryostatin 16 (6), and bryostatin 17 (7), were also obtained and elucidated by comparing their physical and spectroscopic features with the data reported in the literature.12,13 The cytotoxicities of compounds 1, 2, and 5, as well as the mixtures of 3 and 4 (ratio = 3:2) and 6 and 7 (ratio = 3:2) were evaluated against four human cancer cell lines: U937 (human histiocytic lymphoma), K562 (human chronic leukemia), SGC7901 (human gastric carcinoma), and HeLa (human cervical adenocarcinoma). Doxorubicin was used as a positive control. The isolated compounds showed cytotoxic effects against all of the human cancer cell lines tested (Table 2). In the previous studies, all bryostatins were mainly assessed for their cytotoxicities against the murine P388 lymphocytic leukemia cell line.6,12,13 Compared to the reported potent cytotoxicity against the P388 cell line, compounds 1−7 exhibited weaker cytotoxicities against the above four cancer cell lines. These results indicated that the P388 cell line may be more sensitive to the bryostatins. The biological evaluation indicated that Omethylation at C-9 correlated with a loss of inhibitory activity, as was observed for the mixtures of 3 and 4, and 6 and 7. In addition, the presence of a single methyl group at C-18, as demonstrated by compound 1, positively affected cytotoxic activity, as determined via comparison with compound 5. Moreover, the inhibitory effects of the bryostatins were more profound in leukemia cell lines than in solid tumor cell lines.

(5). Instead of one quaternary carbon at δC 44.9 (C-18) in 5, one sp3 methine (δH/δC 2.66/39.7, CH-18) in 1 was detected. Taken together with a doublet methyl signal at δH 0.90 (d, J = 6.6 Hz, H3-32), the significant difference was the presence of a single methyl group at C-18 in compound 1. These results were confirmed by the COSY correlations of H2-14/H-15/H-16/H17/H-18/H3-32, as well as the HMBC correlations from H-18 (δH 2.66) to C-16 (δC 132.4) and C-17 (δC 132.5) and from H3-32 (δH 0.90) to C-17, C-18 (δC 39.7), and C-19 (δC 99.5) (Figure 1). Although an HMBC correlation between H-25 (δH 5.21) and C-1 was not observed, the deshielded resonance of C-25 (δC 73.5) suggested the attachment between C-1 and C25 via an oxygen atom. Finally, the planar structure of 1 was established as shown and named bryostatin 21. Structurally, the presence of a single methyl group at C-18 in compound 1 has not been observed previously for all of the known bryostatins. The relative configuration of 1 was established by coupling constant analysis and NOESY experiments. The observed similarity in the NMR chemical shift values and coupling constants indicated that the relative configurations in 1 were the same as for other bryostatins.7 The conjugated C-16/C-17 double bond was assigned to be trans due to its large coupling constant (16.2 Hz). The trans configuration for the C-21/C-33 double bond was deduced based on the strong NOESY correlation between H-20 and H-33, as well as the lack of NOESY correlation between H-33 and H-22. NOESY correlations of H-5/H-7, H-7/H3-29, H3-29/H-11, H-11/H15, H-15/H-17, H-17/H-18, and 3-OH/26-OH indicated that these protons were α-oriented, while the NOESY cross-peaks of H3-32/19-OH, H3-32/H-20, H-20/19-OH, H-23/H-26, and H-23/H-3 indicated that they were cofacial and β-oriented (Figure 1). Therefore, the relative configuration of 1 was assigned as 3R*, 5R*, 7S*, 9S*, 11S*, 15R*, 18S*, 19S*, 20S*, 23S*, 25R*, 26R*. The molecular formula of 9-O-methylbryostatin 4 (2) was determined as C47H72O17 according to its HRESIMS, which corresponded to 12 degrees of unsaturation. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 2 were similar to those of bryostatin 4 (5),12 except for the presence of a methoxy group (δH/δC 3.36/52.0). The extra methoxy group was located at C-9, as determined by the HMBC correlations from 9-OCH3 (δH 3.36) to C-9 (δC 104.4). The unambiguous COSY and key HMBC correlations confirmed the postulated methoxy homologue of 5 (Figure S32). On the basis of the 1H−1H coupling constant values and NOESY data, the relative configuration of 2 was assigned as 3R*, 5R*, 7S*, 9S*, 11S*, 15R*, 19S*, 20S*, 23S*, 25R*, 26R*. Compound 2, however, could possibly be an artifact from the extraction process with MeOH as a solvent. 9-O-Methylbryostatin 16 (3) and 9-O-methylbryostatins 17 (4) were isolated as a colorless, amorphous powder mixture.

The cytotoxicity of compounds 1−7 against U937, K562, SGC-7901, and HeLa human cancer cell lines was determined using the MTT method.14 The cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 or DMEM medium (Hyclone) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Hyclone) at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2. Briefly, 100 μL of adherent cells was seeded into each well of a 96-well microplate and allowed to adhere for 12 h before drug addition. Suspended cells were seeded at an initial density of 1 × 105 cells/mL before drug addition. Each cancer cell line was treated with the indicated test compound at various concentrations, in triplicate, for 72 h, and doxorubicin was used as a positive control. DMSO (100 μL for each well) was used to solubilize the cells, and the optical density (OD) of the lysate was measured at 490 nm in a 96-well microtiter plate reader (Spectra MAX 340). IC50 values were obtained from the curves of average OD values of the triplicate tests versus drug concentrations.

out using HSGF 254 plates and visualized by spraying with anisic aldehyde reagent. Animal Material. The bryozoan samples were collected off Daya Bay in the South China Sea in June 2012 and identified as Bugula neritina by Prof. Ru-xing Cai (Biology Department, Hangzhou University, China) and Prof. Yang-hua Yi (Research Center for Marine Drugs, School of Pharmacy, Second Military Medical University, China). A voucher sample (No. CTC1201-DY) has been deposited in the Laboratory of Marine Drugs, Department of Pharmacy, Changzheng Hospital, Second Military Medical University, China. Extraction and Isolation. Air-dried bryozoan (10.0 kg, dry weight) was powdered and extracted with 95% aqueous EtOH at rt, with each extraction taking 1 week. The combined extracts were concentrated under reduced pressure to yield the crude extract (102.1 g), which was suspended in H2O and sequentially extracted with EtOAc and n-BuOH to afford EtOAc- and n-BuOH-soluble extracts. The EtOAc-soluble extract (97.8 g) was partitioned between 90% aqueous MeOH and n-hexane, and the n-hexane layer was collected and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the n-hexanesoluble extract (72.0 g). The 90% aqueous MeOH phase was diluted to 60% aqueous MeOH with H2O, which was extracted with CH2Cl2 to afford the CH2Cl2-soluble extract (18.7 g). The CH2Cl2-soluble extract was subjected to vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC) on silica gel by gradient elution using n-hexane/acetone (50:1, 30:1, 20:1, 10:1, 8:1, 5:1, 1:1, 0:1, v/v) as the solvent to give seven fractions (A− G). Fraction E (1.1 g) was subjected to column chromatography (CC) on Sephadex LH-20 using CH2Cl2/MeOH (1:1) as the eluting solvent to afford four subfractions (E1−E4). Subfraction E2 (0.1 g) was also separated by reversed-phase HPLC eluting with 87% MeOH/H2O to afford compound 2 (2.0 mL/min, 228 nm, tR = 38.9 min, 1.4 mg). Subfraction E3 (0.8 g) was further separated on an ODS (50 μm) column, followed by stepwise gradient elution with MeOH/H2O (1:1, 3:2, 4:1, 1:0) to afford seven fractions (Fr. E31−E37). Fraction E36 was also purified by reversed-phase HPLC with an elution of 87% MeOH/H2O detected at a wavelength of 228 nm to give compounds 7 (2.0 mL/min, tR = 22.8 min, 5.9 mg), 4 (2.0 mL/min, tR = 34.2 min, 2.1 mg), 1 (2.0 mL/min, tR = 36.5 min, 3.5 mg), 5 (2.0 mL/min, tR = 38.0 min, 9.7 mg), 6 (2.0 mL/min, tR = 39.4 min, 8.5 mg), and 3 (2.0 mL/min, tR = 64.6 min, 2.0 mg). Bryostatin 21 (1): colorless, amorphous powder; [α]25D +7.3 (c 0.10, MeOH); UV (MeOH) (log ε) λmax 225 (4.46); IR (KBr) νmax 3459, 3365, 2926, 2855, 1723, 1662, 1463, 1437, 1408, 1376, 1286, 1255, 1236, 1159, 1084, 990.863, 805, 706 cm−1; 1H and 13C NMR data, Table 1; HRESIMS m/z 903.4347 [M + Na]+ (calcd for C45H68O17Na, 903.4354). 9-O-methylbryostatin 4 (2): colorless, amorphous powder; [α]25D +24.4 (c 0.10, MeOH); UV (MeOH) (log ε) λmax 228 (4.69) nm; IR (KBr) νmax 3467, 3330, 2970, 2933, 1723, 1658, 1461, 1436, 1380, 1285, 1160, 1101, 988, 861, 737 cm−1; 1H and 13C NMR data, Table 1; HRESIMS m/z 931.4672 [M + Na]+ (calcd for C47H72O17Na, 931.4667).
