Abstract :

A chemical investigation of the roots of Euphorbia ebracteolata identified eighteen diterpenoids and glycosides. On the basis of spectroscopic data, they were determined to be ent-kauranes, ent-atisanes, tigliane derivatives, ingenane, and ent-abietanes, among which were eleven previously undescribed diterpenoids. The inhibitory effects of the isolated compounds against human carboxylesterase 2 (hCE-2) were evaluated in vitro, which revealed moderate inhibitory effects with IC50 values<50muM. Next, the inhibitory kinetics were evaluated for the putative hCE-2 inhibitor 4beta,9alpha,16,20-tetrahydroxy-14(13-->12)-abeo-12alphaH-1,6-tigliadiene-3,13-di one (IC50 3.88muM), and results indicated competitive inhibition with Ki 4.94muM. Additionally, none of the diterpenoids showed cytotoxic effects against five human tumor cell lines as determined by MTT assays.
