Synthesis and biological evaluation of pentacyclic triterpenoid derivatives as potential novel antibacterial agents

Panpan Wu et al.

Summary: A series of triterpenoid derivatives, including ursolic acid (UA), oleanolic acid (OA), and 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), were synthesized with various substituted aromatic side chains at the C-2 position. Among them, the GA derivative with aromatic side chains showed potent antibacterial activity against drug sensitive and resistant S. aureus, indicating potential for development of a new type of triterpenoid antibacterial agent.

Pentacyclic Triterpenoids with Nitrogen-Containing Heterocyclic Moiety, Privileged Hybrids in Anticancer Drug Discovery

Vuyolwethu Khwaza et al.

Summary: Pentacyclic triterpenoids are widely known plant phytochemicals with diverse biological activities, making them valuable sources for pharmacological agents. Compounds with nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffolds have shown great potential as candidate drugs, with about 75% of FDA-approved drugs belonging to this category. Researchers are exploring new triterpenoid derivatives with pharmacological activities, particularly those containing nitrogen-containing heterocyclic moieties.

Ahmed M. Naglah et al.

Summary: The study synthesized multiple peptides, some of which showed potent antimicrobial and antifungal activities, as well as potential to inhibit human breast cancer cell lines. However, the compounds exhibited weak to moderate antiproliferative effects on colon tumor cells. Further modification is needed for significant antimicrobial and antitumor efficacy compared to reference drugs.
