Guaiazulene is a sesquiterpene that has been found in M. chamomilla and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3 It inhibits lipid peroxidation in rat hepatic microsomes (IC50 = 9.8 μM), as well as scavenges hydroxyl and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radicals in cell-free assays.1 It inhibits LPS-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 cells (EC50 = 10.1 μM) but is cytotoxic to RAW 264.7 cells at higher concentrations with cytotoxic concentration (CC50) values of 29.8 and 30.8 μM in the presence and absence, respectively, of LPS.2 Guaiazulene is cytotoxic to N2a neuroblastoma cells and primary rat neurons in a concentration-dependent manner.3 It inhibits decreases in hepatic glutathione (GSH) levels induced by paracetamol in rats when administered at a dose of 250 mg/kg.1

Guaiazulene and related compounds: A review of current perspective on biomedical applications
Life Sci 2023 Mar 1;316:121389.PMID:36646376DOI:10.1016/j.lfs.2023.121389.
Background: Thousands of people worldwide pass away yearly due to neurological disorders, cardiovascular illnesses, cancer, metabolic disorders, and microbial infections. Additionally, a sizable population has also been impacted by hepatotoxicity, ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and breast fissure. These ailments are likewise steadily increasing along with the increase in life expectancy. Finding innovative therapies to cure and consequently lessen the impact of these ailments is, therefore, a global concern. Methods and materials: All provided literature on Guaiazulene (GA) and its related compounds were searched using various electronic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, Elsevier, Springer, ACS, CNKI, and books via the keywords Guaiazulene, Matricaria chamomilla, GA-related compounds, and Guaiazulene analogous. Results: The FDA has approved the bicyclic sesquiterpene GA, commonly referred to as azulon or 1,4-dimethyl-7-isopropylazulene, as a component in cosmetic colorants. The pleiotropic health advantages of GA and related substances, especially their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, attracted a lot of research. Numerous studies have found that GA can help to manage various conditions, including bacterial infections, tumors, immunomodulation, expectorants, diuretics, diaphoresis, ulcers, dermatitis, proliferation, and gastritis. These conditions all involve lipid peroxidation and inflammatory response. In this review, we have covered the biomedical applications of GA. Moreover, we also emphasize the therapeutic potential of Guaiazulene derivatives in pre-clinical and clinical settings, along with their underlying mechanism(s). Conclusion: GA and its related compounds exhibit therapeutic potential in several diseases. Still, it is necessary to investigate their potential in animal models for various other ailments and establish their safety profile. They might be a good candidate to advance to clinical trials.
C4-aldehyde of Guaiazulene: synthesis and derivatisation
Org Biomol Chem 2021 Mar 21;19(11):2502-2511.PMID:33661271DOI:10.1039/d0ob02567d.
Guaiazulene is an alkyl-substituted azulene available from natural sources and is a much lower cost starting material for the synthesis of azulene derivatives than azulene itself. Here we report an approach for the selective functionalisation of Guaiazulene which takes advantage of the acidity of the protons on the Guaiazulene C4 methyl group. The aldehyde produced by this approach constitutes a building block for the construction of azulenes substituted on the seven-membered ring. Derivatives of this aldehyde synthesised by alkenylation, reduction and condensation are reported, and the halochromic properties of a subset of these derivatives have been studied.
Design, Synthesis, and Biological Activity of Guaiazulene Derivatives
Chem Biodivers 2023 Feb;20(2):e202201174.PMID:36573597DOI:10.1002/cbdv.202201174.
Guaiazulene and related derivatives were famous for diverse biological activities. In an effort to discover new highly efficient candidate drugs derived from Guaiazulene, four series of Guaiazulene derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for antiproliferation, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) signalling pathway agonist activities. Among them, two Guaiazulene condensation derivatives showed selective cytotoxic activities towards K562 cell with IC50 values 5.21 μM and 5.14 μM, respectively, accompanied by slight effects on normal cell viability. For the first time, one Guaiazulene derivative from series I exhibited potent antiviral activity towards influenza A virus with IC50 of 17.5 μM. A guaiazulene-based chalcone showed higher anti-inflammatory activity than positive drug indomethacin with an inhibitory rate of 34.29 % in zebrafish model in vivo. One guaiazulene-based flavonoid could strongly agitate PPARγ pathway at 20 μM, indicating the potential of Guaiazulene derivatives to reduce obesity development and ameliorate hepatic steatosis. Preliminary in silico ADME studies predicted the excellent drug-likeness properties of bioactive Guaiazulene derivatives.
Guaiazulene Triggers ROS-Induced Apoptosis and Protective Autophagy in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Front Pharmacol 2021 Apr 15;12:621181.PMID:33935713DOI:10.3389/fphar.2021.621181.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most frequent cancers worldwide, yet effective treatment remains a clinical challenge. Guaiazulene (GYZ), a cosmetic color additive, has previously been characterized as a potential antitumor agent due to observed anticancer effects. However, the efficacy of GYZ in the treatment of NSCLC and the involved molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we indicated a role for GYZ in the suppression of NSCLC both in vitro and in vivo via triggering reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced apoptosis. Concomitantly, GYZ induced complete autophagic flux in NSCLC cells via inhibiting the Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, which displayed cytoprotective effect against GYZ-induced growth suppression. Accompanied with autophagy inhibition obviously enhanced the effects of GYZ. Notably, GYZ acts synergistically with paclitaxel in the suppression of NSCLC in vitro. Together, our results for the first time reported that GYZ suppressed the proliferation of NSCLC and suggested a potential strategy for inhibiting NSCLC growth by combinational use of GYZ and autophagy inhibitors.
Guaiazulene derivative 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroazuleno[1,2-b] tropone reduces the production of ATP by inhibiting electron transfer complex II
FEBS Open Bio 2021 Nov;11(11):2921-2932.PMID:34061471DOI:10.1002/2211-5463.13215.
Molecularly targeted therapy has been used for treatment of various types of cancer. However, cancer cells often acquire resistance to molecularly targeted drugs that inhibit specific molecular abnormalities, such as constitutive activation of kinases. Even in cancer cells that have acquired resistance, enhanced anabolism, including the synthesis of nucleotides, amino acids and lipids, is common to normal cancer cells. Therefore, there is a renewed interest in effectively eliminating cancer cells by specifically targeting their abnormal energy metabolism. Multiple strategies are currently being developed for mitochondrial-targeted cancer therapy, with agents targeting oxidative phosphorylation, glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle and apoptosis. In this study, we found that one of the Guaiazulene derivatives, namely, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroazuleno[1,2-b] tropone (TAT), inhibited the proliferation of cancer cell lines stronger than that of normal cells. In addition, we showed that TAT inhibited energy production in cancer cell lines, resulting in apoptosis. Analyses done in cancer cell lines and in the animal model Caenorhabditis elegans suggested that TAT acts on the mitochondrial electron transfer complex II and suppresses cellular energy production by inhibiting oxidative phosphorylation across species. These results suggest that TAT could represent a novel anticancer agent that selectively targets mitochondria.
