Popis: Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is one of the most promising strategies for cancer chemotherapy, and a number of inhibitors possessing nicotinamide-like structures are being developed. To discover new types of PARP1 inhibitors, we screened a large number of substances of plant origin and isolated two inhibitory substances from the leaves of Syzygium samarangense (Blume) Merrill & L.M. Perry. The inhibitory substances were identified as vescalagin and its epimer castalagin by analyses using nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry. The IC50 of purified vescalagin and castalagin for PARP1 inhibition were 2.67 and 0.86 μM, respectively. Unlike most of synthetic PARP1 inhibitors, castalagin showed a mixed type inhibition, of which Ki was 1.64 μM. When SH-SY5Y cells were treated with these ellagitannins at concentrations of less than 5 μM, cellular poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation was obviously attenuated. Castalagin and vescalagin also possessed inhibitory activity against DNA topoisomerase II, implying that they function as dual inhibitors in cells.
