Nine sesquiterpenoids were isolated from the dichloromethane fraction of the 95% ethanol extract from the roots of Lindera glauca by using a combination of separation techniques, including silica gel, ODS and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatographies, as well as semi-preparative HPLC. Based on a comprehensive analysis of modern spectroscopic data, such as IR, UV, NMR, HRESIMS and ECD, the structures of isolated compounds were identified as glaucatotone M (1), glaucatotone K (2), glaucatotone G (3), pseudoguaianelactone C (4), pseudoguaianelactone B (5), elema-1,3,11(13)-trien-12-oic acid (6), α-costic acid (7), 3β-hydroxycostic acid (8) and rupestonic acid I (9), respectively. Compound 1 was a new guaiane-type sesquiterpenoid, and compounds 6 and 7 were first reported from the genus Lindera. The inhibitory activity of compounds 1-7 and 9 against both the proliferation of TNF-α-induced rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes cell line MH7A and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and IL-1β) were evaluated. The results showed that compound 1 had a significant inhibitory effect against TNF-α-induced MH7A cell proliferation and reduced the production of IL-6 and IL-1β effectively.
