Abstract

Four cyclic peptides, diandrine A - D (1 - 4), were isolated from the MeOH extract of Formosan Drymaria diandra. Their structures were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic analyses as cyclo(-Gly1-Pro 2-Trp3-Pro4-Tyr5-Phe6-), cyclo(-Gly1Pro2-Leu3-Pro4-Leu 5-Trp6-Ser7-Ser8-), cyclo(Gly 1Gly2-Pro3-Tyr4-Trp 5-Pro6-), and cyclo(Gly1-Gly 2-Pro3-Tyr4-Trp5-Pro6-), respectively. Compounds 3 and 4 were stable conformational isomers. Cyclopeptide 1 showed a selective inhibitory effect on collagen-induced platelet aggregation with an IC50 value of 44.2 μM.
