Cambial meristematic cell (CMC) suspension cultures were investigated as a new biotransformation system for the first time. Four 4-methylcoumarins substrates were transformed by CMCs of Camptotheca acuminata into four corresponding products, including 4,8-dimethylcoumarin-7- O -β-d-glucopyranoside (I-1), 4,7-dimethylcoumarin-6- O -β-d-glucopyranoside (II-1), 6-hydroxy-7-methoxyl-4- methylcoumarin (III-1), and 4,7-dimethylcoumarin-5- O -β-d-glucopyranoside (IV-1), of which I-1, II-1, and IV-1 were new compounds. In addition, the biotransformation time and the amount of substrate were investigated to compare the biotransformation rate and optimize the biotransformation conditions of the four substrates in C. acuminata CMCs suspension cultures. The results suggested C. acuminata CMCs were able to select glycosylate phenolic hydroxyl groups of 4-methylcoumarins I, II, and IV, with high regio- and stereoselectivity, but no corresponding glycoside of any phenolic hydroxyl group of compound III was detected. Simultaneously, the result also showed that the C. acuminata CMCs were able to transform the 7-hydroxy groups of substrate III to its corresponding methylated products. Furthermore, the monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibition activities of biotransformed products were evaluated, and the data showed that all the products possessed good MAO inhibition activities in vitro . In conclusion, C. acuminata CMCs could be applied to glycosylation biotransformation as a novel plant-based system due to the successful application of bioconversion of exogenous coumarins.
