BACKGROUND
Sanguisorba officinalis Linne (Rosaceae) is a medicinal plant used traditionally for the treatment of inflammatory and metabolic diseases in Korea, China, and Japan. In our previous study, a 50% ethanol extract inhibited fat accumulation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
OBJECTIVE
This study investigates bioassay-guided fractionation, isolation, and identification of anti-adipogenic bioactive compounds in S. officinalis.
METHODS
The bioassay-guided fractionation was conducted using effective differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells into adipocytes (with 50 μg/mL test material for 8 days) to isolate the inhibitory compounds from ethyl acetate fraction of S. officinalis 50% ethanol extract. The cytotoxicity of each fraction and isolated compound was tested using MTT assay (with 25-300 μg/mL test material). Structures of the isolated active compounds were elucidated using 1H NMR, 13 C NMR, HSQC, HMBC, FT-IR, and MS.
RESULTS
An active ethyl acetate fraction obtained with solvent partition of the extract inhibited lipid accumulation (44.84%) on 3T3-L1 cells without cytotoxicity (102.3%) at the concentration of 50 μg/mL. The ethyl acetate fraction was determined to be mainly composed by isorhamnetin-3-O-d-glucuronide (1) and ellagic acid (2). Pure isorhamnetin-3-O-d-glucuronide (IC30 is 18.43 μM) and ellagic acid (IC30 is 19.32 μM) showed lipid accumulation inhibition on 3T3-L1 cells without cytotoxicity (117.5% and 104.3%) at the concentration of 20 μM, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
These results suggested that S. officinalis is a potential natural ingredient for the prevention of obesity, which may due to bioactive compounds such as isorhamnetin-3-O-d-glucuronide and ellagic acid.
