Ardisiaquinone

Ardisiaquinones are a group of closely related chemical compounds found in plants in the genus Ardisia. The first examples, ardisiaquinones A-C, were isolated in 1968 from Ardisia sieboldii.^[1] In 1995, ardisiaquinones D, E, and F were discovered, also from Ardisia sieboldii.^[2] In 2001, ardisiaquinones G, H and I were isolated from Ardisia teysmanniana.^[3]

Chemically, the ardisiaquinones consist of two variably-substituted 1,4-benzoquinone units connected by a long alkyl or alkenyl chain.^[1]

Research

Ardisiaquinones are of research interest because they possess 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibitor activity and 5-LOX has clinical relevance in inflammation.^[4] For example, ardisiaquinone A protects against liver injury in an animal model of ischemia-reperfusion injury.^[5] Likewise, ardisiaquinone G has also shown 5-LOX inhibition.^[4] Ardisiaquinone A has also been shown to have an antiallergic effect in an animal model.^[6] Other ardisiaquinones have shown antiproliferative and antimicrobial effects in vitro.^[7]

Laboratory syntheses of ardisiaquinones A and B have been reported.^[8][9]
