A new aryl dihydronaphthalene lignan, echiumin E (1), and four known compounds, echiumin A, globoidnan A, (−)-rabdosiin, and rosmarinic acid (2–5), were isolated from the Australian invasive plant Echium plantagineum (Paterson’s curse) for the first time. Echiumin E (1) was characterized by 1D/2D NMR spectroscopy and MS spectrometry, with its absolute configuration assigned through comparison of experimental and TDDFT-calculated ECD data. Echiumin E (1) along with compounds 3–5 were screened in vitro against three cancer cell lines (SH-SY5Y, HeLa, and PC-3) and a prostate stromal (normal) cell line (WPMY-1) using a resazurin reduction assay. Echiumin E (1) was found to be active toward HeLa cells (IC50 0.21 μM).

Besides being a common weed, the presence of Echium plantagineum L. in food and feed commodities can represent a safety hazard due to their content in pyrrolizidine alkaloids. In this study, the complete chloroplast of E. plantagineum isolate BPTPS251 is described, being the first available plastome from an isolate belonging to the Echium genus. The chloroplast genome is 149,776 bp in length with 37.5% GC content, displaying a quadripartite structure that contains a pair of inverted repeats regions (25,754 bp each), separated by a large single-copy (80,978 bp) and a small single-copy (17,290 bp) regions. A total of 131 genes were predicted, including 37 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 86 protein-coding genes. The phylogenetic analysis confirmed the placement of E. plantagineum under the Boraginaceae family, belonging to the Boraginales order. This study will contribute to conservation, phylogenetic, and evolutionary studies, as well as DNA barcoding applications for food and feed safety purposes.

IntroductionDahlia pinnata Cav. is a flower native to Mexico that has many applications; in particular, its petals have been used for ornamental, food, and medicinal purposes, for example to treat skin rashes and skin cracks. It has been reported that the medicinal properties of plants are generally related to the phytochemical constituents they possess. However, there are few studies on black D. pinnata.ObjectivesThe present study was aimed at qualitatively and quantitatively determining the phytochemical profile of petals from black D. pinnata.MethodologyPhytochemicals from Dahlia petals were extracted by consecutive maceration (hexane, dichloromethane, and methanol); then, the extracts were analyzed through colorimetric assays and UV–Vis spectroscopy for qualitative identification and quantification of phytochemical compounds, respectively. The methanolic extract was analyzed by flow injection analysis–electrospray ionization–Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FIA‐ESI‐FTICR‐MS) in negative and positive mode.ResultsQuantitative phytochemical profiling of the methanolic extract by UV–Vis spectroscopy indicated high contents of phenolic compounds (34.35 ± 3.59 mg EQ/g plant) and sugars (23.91 ± 1.99 mg EQ/g plant), while the qualitative profiling by FIA‐ESI‐FTICR‐MS allowed the tentative identification of several flavonoids and phenolic acids. Kaempferol‐3‐rutinoside, pelargonidin‐3‐(6″‐malonylglucoside)‐5‐glucoside, rutin, kaempferol‐3‐(2″,3″‐diacetyl‐4″‐p‐coumaroylrhamnoside), and myricetin‐3‐(2‴‐galloylrhamnoside) were the main compounds detected.ConclusionThe results expand our knowledge of the phytochemical constituents of petals from black D. pinnata.
