Isolation of 5α-reductase Inhibitors from Euphorbia jolkinii
Twenty eight comopounds were isolated from the whole plant of Euphorbia jolkinii and evaluated for inhibitory effect on 5α-reductase activity. Among the tested compounds, 1-desgalloyl eugeniin, hippomanin A, euphorbin D, exocoecarianin, rugosin E, and pentagalloyl glucose showed potent inhibitory ef...

Zusammenfassung: | Twenty eight comopounds were isolated from the whole plant of Euphorbia jolkinii and evaluated for inhibitory effect on 5α-reductase activity. Among the tested compounds, 1-desgalloyl eugeniin, hippomanin A, euphorbin D, exocoecarianin, rugosin E, and pentagalloyl glucose showed potent inhibitory effect on the enzyme activity. The inhibitory potency of rugosin E and euphorbin D, which are dimeric ellagitannins on 5α-reductase activity, was 7- to 8-fold stronger than that of γ-linolenic acid. |
