Abstract
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents from Hypericum perforatum.
METHODS
Compouds were isolated by chromatographic techniques. Their structures were identified by spectral methods. The inhibitory activity of recombinant human PTP1B was evaluated.
RESULTS
Nine compounds were elucidated as D-Mannitol (1), 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid bis(1-methylpropyl) ester (2), (7E, 6R,9S)-9-hydroxy-4,7-megastigmadien-3-one (3), (6S,9R)-roseoside (4) , 2,6-dimethoxy-4-hydroquinone-l-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (5), 2,6-di-methoxy-4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol 1 -O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (6), syringate 4-O-beta-glucopyranoside (7), hypericin (8), skyrin-6-0-beta-D-glucopyranoside (9) , (R)-2,3-dihydroxypropyl 3,4-dihydroxy-benzoate (10). At a concentration of 2 micromol x L(-1), compound 8 inhibited recombinant human PTP1B with inhibitory rate of 96.4% and IC50 of 2.5 micromol x L(-1).
CONCLUSIONS
compound 10 was new, compounds 2-4, 7 were obtained from Hypericum for the first time and compounds 5-6 was isolated from this plant for the first time. Compound 8 showed remarkable PTP1B inhibitory activity.
