Journal of Huazhong Normal University, 2014 , 48 (4) :520-4. | Lavandulyl flavonoids with sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitory activity from Sophora flavescens[Reference: WebLink] | To discover new bioactive Sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 2(SGLT2)inhibitors from the traditional Chinese medicine"Ku Shen"(roots of Sophora flavescens),the bioassay-guided purification of an active ethyl acetate fraction was performed.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Sixteen lavandulyl flavonoids were isolated and their structures were elucidated as kushenol H(1),kushenol K(2),kurarinol(3),kushenol Y(4),kushenol P(5),norkurarinone(6),kushenol I(7),kushenol N(8),(-)-kurarinone(9),Kushenol X(10),neokurarinol(11),kushenol C(12),sophoraflavanone G(13),leachianone A(14),kuraridine(15)and kushenol A(16). All isolated compounds exhibited inhibitory activity against SGLT2.
Among them,the two main constituents of the active EtOAc fraction,(-)-kurarinone(9)and sophoraflavanone G(13)showed the most potential inhibitory activity against SGLT2with the IC50values of 2.24μmol/L and 1.45μmol/L,respectively. |
