A series of C-3 and C-28 MeON-neoglycosides of oleanolic acid were designed and synthesized by neoglycosylation as potential antiproliferative agents. Their cytotoxicity was evaluated in vitro against five human cancer cell lines: human non-small cell lung cancer cell line (A549), human melanoma cell line (A375), human colon cancer cell line (HCT116), human liver carcinoma cell line (HepG2), human breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF-7) by the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Most of C-3 and C-28 MeON-neoglycosides of oleanolic acid exhibited notably inhibitory effects against the tested cancer cells and more sensitive to HepG2 cells than 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU). Structure-activities relationship (SAR) analysis revealed that sugar types and the d/l configuration of sugars would significantly affect their antiproliferative activities of neoglycosides. Among them, compound 8a (28- N -methoxyaminooleanane- β -d-glucoside) exhibited the most potent antiproliferative activities against HepG2 cells with IC 50 values of 2.1 µM. Further pharmacological experiments revealed that compound 8a could cause morphological changes and cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and induce apoptosis in HepG2 cells. These results suggested that neoglycosylation could provide a rapid strategy for the discovery of potential antiproliferative agents and their possible pharmacological mechanisms need more further research.
