하수오 지상부의 활성 성분

Polygoni Radix (Polygonaceae) has been used as renal disoder hematopoietic, menstrual irregularity and antiaging in Korean folk medicine. Specially aerial parts has been used for insomnia and sedative agent. In order to investigate the efficacy of antioxidant activity on these aerial parts, the bio-activity guided fraction and isolation of physiologically active substance were performed. H$_2$O, 30%, 60%, 100% MeOH were examined antioxidant activity by DPPH method. It was revealed that 30%, 60% MeOH fractions have significantly antioxidant activity. From 60% MeOH fraction, six known flavonoid glycosides (quercetin, quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranosyl-4'-O-glucopyrano side-3'-methyl ether, quercetin 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-rhannopyranoside, quercetin 3-O- ${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranoside-4'-methylethor, quorcetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside, quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside) and 3,4-Oihydrocinnarnic acid were isolated. To investigate the antioxidant activities of each com-pounds, we measured radical scavening activity with DPPH method and anti-lipid peroxidative efficacy on low density lipo-protein (LDL) with TBARS assay and anti-acetylcholinestrase activity with Ellman's Test. Four compounds (ll, IV Vl, Vll) of quercetin glycosides showed significant activity.
