Kobophenol A Inhibits Binding of Host ACE2 Receptor with Spike RBD Domain of SARS-CoV-2, a Lead Compound for Blocking COVID-19
J Phys Chem Lett 2021 Feb 25;12(7):1793-1802.PMID:33577324DOI:10.1021/acs.jpclett.0c03119.
In the search for inhibitors of COVID-19, we have targeted the interaction between the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor and the spike receptor binding domain (S1-RBD) of SARS-CoV-2. Virtual screening of a library of natural compounds identified Kobophenol A as a potential inhibitor. Kobophenol A was then found to block the interaction between the ACE2 receptor and S1-RBD in vitro with an IC50 of 1.81 ± 0.04 μM and inhibit SARS-CoV-2 viral infection in cells with an EC50 of 71.6 μM. Blind docking calculations identified two potential binding sites, and molecular dynamics simulations predicted binding free energies of -19.0 ± 4.3 and -24.9 ± 6.9 kcal/mol for Kobophenol A to the spike/ACE2 interface and the ACE2 hydrophobic pocket, respectively. In summary, Kobophenol A, identified through docking studies, is the first compound that inhibits SARS-CoV-2 binding to cells through blocking S1-RBD to the host ACE2 receptor and thus may serve as a good lead compound against COVID-19.
Kobophenol A enhances proliferation of human osteoblast-like cells with activation of the p38 pathway
Int Immunopharmacol 2013 Nov;17(3):704-13.PMID:24021754DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2013.08.015.
Bone cell proliferation, bone formation, and bone resorption are the main factors involved in the homeostasis of the bone mass. Osteoblast death is a problem experienced by postmenopause women. Herbal medicines have attracted considerable attention for use as a drug or a drug substitute in the treatment of bone-related diseases, such as osteoporosis. This study investigated the effects of Kobophenol A on the proliferation in human osteoblast cells. Kobophenol A stimulated the proliferation of osteoblast cells by the increases in DNA synthesis and the enhancement of cell cycle progression. Kobophenol A stimulation induced the expression of the cyclin B1 and cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1). Treatment of osteoblast cells with p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 significantly inhibited kobophenol A-enhanced proliferation. In addition, Kobophenol A induced phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. Treatment of osteoblast cells with Kobophenol A resulted in improvement of ROS scavenging activity. Moreover, Kobophenol A treatment up-regulated the Bcl-2 level, but down-regulated the level of Bax expression. We also demonstrate that Kobophenol A increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity after 2 days. Taken together, the results of this study reveal that Kobophenol A has proliferative effects and enhances ALP activity in osteoblast cells and these findings provide insights into the development of a therapeutic approach of Kobophenol A in the prevention of osteoporosis and other bone disorders.
Kobophenol A Isolated from Roots of Caragana sinica (Buc'hoz) Rehder Exhibits Anti-inflammatory Activity by Regulating NF-κB Nuclear Translocation in J774A.1 Cells
Toxicol Rep 2018 May 19;5:647-653.PMID:30023311DOI:10.1016/j.toxrep.2018.05.011.
Kobophenol A (KPA) is a biologically active natural compound isolated from the roots of Caragana sinica (Buc'hoz) Rehder (C. sinica). However, the anti-inflammatory effects of KPA have not been reported. This study aims to find out whether KPA isolated from roots of C. sinica can act as a potential substance on inflammation and analyze the molecular mechanism using the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated J774 A.1 macrophage cell line. We showed that KPA treatment significantly suppressed the production of nitric oxide (NO) by inhibiting inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in a dose-dependent manner without cytotoxicity. In the KPA also inhibited pro-inflammatory cytokine gene expression and production, such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in LPS-stimulated J774 A.1 cells. As continuing study on the mechanisms involved, we confirmed that these effects of KPA were related to the inhibition of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway including the suppression of IκB kinase α/β (IKKα/β) phosphorylation and translocation of NF-κB into the nucleus. Taken together, the present study is the first to demonstrate that KPA isolated from C. sinica suppresses the expression of inflammatory mediators and cytokines by inhibiting NF-κB nuclear translocation in LPS-stimulated J774 A.1 macrophages. KPA may be a potential candidate for the treatment of inflammatory diseases in the future.
Kobophenol A inhibits sodium nitroprusside-induced cardiac H9c2 cell death through suppressing activation of JNK and preserving mitochondrial anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 and Mcl-1
Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo) 2014;62(7):713-8.PMID:24759620DOI:10.1248/cpb.c13-00995.
Sodium nitroprusside (SNP) releases nitric oxide (NO), a powerful vasodilator, and thus widely used in intensive care unit for treating hypertension emergency. However, cardiac toxicity after SNP administration is a clinical problem. For finding a natural compound that suppressing SNP-induced cardiac toxicity, we tested the protective potential of Kobophenol A (Kob A), purified from the root of Caragana sinica, against the toxic effects of SNP. The severe cardiac H9c2 cell death was induced by SNP (2 mM) treatment. Kob A ameliorated SNP-induced cardiac H9c2 cell death, and this protective effect of Kob A may be related to the inhibition of c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activation following SNP administration. In addition, the downregulation of cellular Bcl-2 and Mcl-1 levels by SNP exposure was strongly abrogated in the presence of Kob A. These biological properties of Kob A might provide insights into developing new cardioprotectant against SNP-induced cardiac cell death.
Metabolites and the pharmacokinetics of Kobophenol A from Caragana sinica in rats
J Ethnopharmacol 2005 Oct 3;101(1-3):324-9.PMID:16099120DOI:10.1016/j.jep.2005.05.016.
This research aims to study the metabolism and pharmacokinetics of phytoestrogen Kobophenol A (1), the main active compound of Caragana sinica (Buc'hoz) Rehd. (Fabaceae), in rats. Metabolites of 1 in rats' feces were isolated and purified by multi-chromatograph techniques; three new metabolites of 1, named koboquinone A (M1), koboquinone B (M2) and koboquinone C (M3), were isolated, purified from rats' feces after they being orally administered with 1. Structure identification of the metabolites was fulfilled by spectroscopic analysis. M1 and M2 are structurally different to those natural occurring stilbene tetramers, which also have para-quinone structure. M1 also showed the activity of stimulating the proliferation of cultured osteoblasts. The pharmacokinetics of 1 in rats could be described by a two-compartmental model (P<0.05). The half-life was 0.68 h for i.v. administration and 5.78 h for oral administration. The oral bioavailability of 1 was calculated to be 2.0%; rats tissue distribution experiments show that 1 was prominently concentrated in livers. Both of the low oral bioavailability and the rapid reduction of 1 in blood indicated a suitable formulation is needed while it is developed as a new drug.
