The ethanolic extract of Liriope platyphylla (Liliaceae) roots showed potential oestrogenic and anti-platelet activities. Twenty-six compounds were isolated and classified as 10 skeletons, including two unusual new dihydrobenzofuroisocoumarins, (+)-platyphyllarin A (1) and B (2), one new butanoate, ethyltributanoate (3), and two new homoisoflavanones, (-)-liriopein A (4) and B (5), along with 21 known compounds, including six homoisoflavonoids, one chalcone, six amides, one lignan, one fatty acid derivative, one alkaloid, three benzenoids, and two steroids. The biosynthetic pathway of compounds 1 and 2 was proposed in the current investigation. The oestrogenic activity of the isolates was evaluated utilising the pER8:GUS reporter assay system in transgenic Arabidopsis plant as well as the SEAP reporter assay system in MCF-7 breast cancer cell-line; the anti-platelet activity was evaluated using the anti-platelet aggregation assay. Several components exhibited significant oestrogenic and anti-platelet activities; demonstrating for the first time the potential use of L. platyphylla as a nutritional supplement for cardiovascular and endocrine diseases.
