? 2022 Elsevier B.V.Twelve dihydro-β-agarofuran-type sesquiterpenoids, including five new ones (1–5), were purified from the seeds of Celastrus virens (Wang et Tang) C. Y. Chent et T. C. Kao. Their chemical structures were characterized via comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, and computational prediction of ECD, as well as comparison of observed and reported NMR spectral data. Among the isolates, nine abundant dihydro-β-agarofuran-type sesquiterpenoids were evaluated for their lifespan-extending activity using the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans model. As a result, compounds 1, 2, 5, 6, 8, and 9 (50 μM) significantly extended the mean survival time of C. elegans, respectively, compared with the blank control group (p < 0.05). Further Quantitative RT-PCR showed that the prolonging of lifespan mediated by compounds 1, 6, 8, and 9 were dependent on the transcription factors skn-1 and hsf-1.
