Nine new triterpene derivatives, yunnanterpenes A鈥揊 (1鈥?b>6), 15,16-seco-cimiterpenes A and B (7, 8), and cimilactone C (9), and 15 known analogues (10鈥?b>24) were isolated from the aerial parts of Cimicifuga yunnanensis. The new structures were established using a combination of MS, NMR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. WT MEFs (wild-type mouse embryonic fibroblasts) and tumorigenic cell lines p53鈥?鈥?/i>+H-RasV12 and p53鈥?鈥?/i>+p53N236S+H-RasV12 were used for evaluating active structures, targeting p53N236S (corresponding to p53N239S in humans) mutation. Compound 5 showed nonselective activities against these cell lines, with IC50 values of 5.8, 8.6, and 6.0 渭M, respectively. Compound 4 exhibited greater selectivity against the p53鈥?鈥?/i>+p53N236S+H-RasV12 cells (IC50 5.5 渭M) than against the WT MEFs cells (IC50 14.3 渭M).
