GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT
A new lignan eplignan A (1), along with six konwn lignans (2–7) was isolated from the herbaceous stems of Ephedra intermedia Schrenket C. A. Meyer. Their structures were elucidated based on the spectroscopic evidence, mainly including NMR and HRESIMS data. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by comparing calculated and experimental electronic circular dichroic (ECD) spectra. Moreover, all compounds (1–7) were evaluated for their protective effects against the BEAS-2B cells injury induced by TGF-β1 in vitro, and the results showed that compounds 1, 2, 4, and 6 exhibited significantly protective activities at the concentration of 10 μM.
