Abstract
RESULTS
The bioassay-guided isolation led to one active compound from purple T. tuberosum, N-oleoyldopamine (1), and another active compound from black T. tuberosum, N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-7Z,10Z,13Z,16Z-docosatetraenamide (2). Both compounds displayed anti-TNF-α activity with IC50 values of 3.12 ± 0.19 μM and 1.56 ± 0.15 μM, respectively. Also, both compounds suppressed NF-κB with IC50 of 3.54 ± 0.02 μM and 1.77 ± 0.07 μM, respectively.
