Resumo

Ten previously undescribed metabolites were isolated from Peperomia incana (Haw.) A. Dietr. (Piperaceae), among which four contained a chromene moiety, two were identified as meroterpene lactones, and four were cannabinoid-like compounds. While the chemical structures of the compounds were assigned based on HRESIMS and 1D and 2D-NMR spectra analyses, the relative and absolute configurations were assigned from NOE correlations and a combination of ECD data and X-ray single crystal analyses, respectively. In a cytotoxic assay against a panel of seven human cancer cell lines (A549, MDA-MB-231, HeLa, DU 145, 5637, Hep G2, and MIA PaCa-2, which represent non-small cell lung cancer, as well as breast, cervical, prostate, bladder, liver, and pancreas carcinomas, respectively) most of the isolated compounds showed promising cytotoxic activities. The incanachromenes B, and incanabinoids A and C exhibited the highest cytotoxicity toward all tested cancer cell lines with IC50 values in the range of 5.0-10.0 & mu;M, whereas incanolides A, B, and incanabinoid B showed the lowest cytotoxic activity. In addition, incanachromene C and incanabinoid C produced a significant antibacterial effect toward planktonic cells and biofilms of multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains. (AU)
