Abstract

Activity-guided fractionation of the Curcuma comosa rhizome MeOH extract that inhibited Wnt signal activity led to the characterization of two new diarylheptanoids (1 and 2) together with six known diarylheptanoids (3-8) and two known sesquiterpenoids (9 and 10). Their structures were identified by 1D and 2D NMR, HRESIMS, optical rotation, and chemical evidences. Compounds 1 and 8 exhibited dose-dependent inhibitory activity against β-catenin/TCF transcriptional activity.
