A Dimeric Lactone from Ardisia japonica with Inhibitory Activity for HIV-1 and HIV-2 Ribonuclease H

Abstract: A new dimeric lactone, ardimerin digallate (1), was isolated from the whole plants of Ardisia japonica, along with six known constituents. The structure of 1 was established on the basis of spectroscopic analysis including 1D- and 2D-NMR techniques. Compound 1 inhibited HIV-1 and HIV-2 RNase H in vitro with IC50 values of 1.5 and 1.1 microM, respectively.

“…Such drugs would likely be active against all current drug-resistant viral strains, because the RNase H active site is located at the opposite end of the enzyme from the polymerase domain (ϳ50 Å away) that is currently targeted by nucleoside and nonnucleoside RT inhibitors (79). Several compounds have been found in recent years to effectively inhibit the RNase H activity of HIV-1 RT, including ␣,␥-diketo acids and derivatives (27,77,78,91), pyrimidinol carboxylic acids (43,47), hydroxytropolones (including ␤-thujaplicinol) (6,12,15,21,34), dimeric lactones (19), 1,3,4,5-tetragalloylapiitol (86), phenolic glycosides (10), vinylogous ureas (16,94), N-hydroxyimides (33,44), 2-hydroxyisoquinoline-1,3(2H,4H)-diones (8,9), acylhydrazones (11,30,35,80), and naphthyridinones (84,95). Although these inhibitors have been studied for the ability to inhibit HIV-1 RT, little is known about their effectiveness against other retroviral RTs, such as the gammaretroviral Moloney murine leukemia virus (MoMLV) and xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) RTs.…”

“…Compound 23 inhibited HIV-1 and HIV-2 RNase H in vitro with IC 50 values of 1.5 and 1.1 M, respectively. It is worth to note that all the other compounds isolated from the above plant that lacked the galloyl unit were inactive [48].…”
