Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the inhibitory effect of extracts from Paeoniae radix on postprandial hyperglycemia. Organic solvent (hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol, water) extracts from Paeoniae radix were fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography. These fractions were used to screen $\alpha$-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20) inhibitors by microplate colorimetric assay. The fractions 11, 12, 18, 19 of ethyl acetate extract from Paeoniae radix showed inhibitory activity by 85%, 84%, 77%, 77% at concentration of 20 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL, respectively. The selected fractions (no. 10~no. 19) significantly reduced by 22% the blood glucose elevation in comparison with positive control in mice loaded with maltose. The fractions of Paeoniae radix were determined in vitro inhibitory activity on $\alpha$-glucosidase and in vivo inhibition effect on blood glucose elevation in mice. Therefore, these results suggest that the extract of Paeoniae radix can be used as a new nutraceutial for inhibition on postprandial hyperglycemia as well as resource pool for lead compounds as a $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitor.

본 연구에서는 작약 추출물의 식후 과혈당 억제작용을 조사하였다. 작약 유기용매(hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol, water) 추출물들을 high performance liquid chromatogrphy를 이용하여 분획한 분획물(fraction)들으 $\alpha$-glucosidase(EC 3.2.1.20) 저해제를 탐색하였다. 작약 ethyl acetate 추출물의 11, 12, 18, 19번 분획물들은 20 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL에서 각각 85%, 84%, 77%, 77%의 강력한 저해 활성을 나타내었으며, 작약 ethyl acetate 추출물의 10~19번 분획을 경구투여한 in vivo당 (maltose) 부하 실험에서도 양성대조군과 비교하여 유의성 있게 22%의 혈당을 낮추었다. 따라서 본 연구의 in vitro와 in vivo 실험을 통하여 확인 된 $\alpha$-glucosidase 저해 활성을 갖는 작약 분획물들은 식후의 혈당상승 작용을 억제하는 새로운 nutraceutical 소재와 항당뇨 신약개발을 위한 탐색자원으로서 매우 가치있는 자원으로 기대된다.
