J Nat Prod. 2017 Dec 22;80(12):3103-3111. doi: 10.1021/acs.jnatprod.6b01127. Epub 2017 Nov 15.

Abstract

Fifteen new and rare iridoid glucoside dimers, cornusides A-O (1-15), and 10 known iridoid glucosides (16-25) were isolated from the fruit of Cornus officinalis. These new chemical structures were established through spectroscopic analysis (UV, IR, HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR). Compounds 1-25 were tested for their inhibitory activities by measuring IL-6-induced STAT3 promoter activity in HepG2 cells, and 3, 12, 17, 22, and 23 showed inhibitory effects, with IC50 values of 11.9, 12.2, 14.0, 7.0, and 6.9 μM, respectively.
