Abstract

Abstract: From a MeOH extract of Lunasia amara, which showed the cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) inhibition, 14 acridone alkaloids including two new alkaloids [5-hydoroxygraveoline (1) and 8-methoxyifflaiamine (2)] were identified. Among the 14 acridone alkaloids, 5-hydoroxygraveoline (1) and lunamarine (3) showed moderate inhibition selective for CYP2D6, with IC<subscript>50</subscript> values of 4.7μM and 1.8μM, respectively.
