Abstract

Recently, much attention has been focused on plant antioxidants, because they are expected to protect against oxidative damage, possibly preserving biological functions of cells. Antioxidant compounds were isolated from Angelica keiskei through extraction with 80% EtOH, and fractionations were carried out sequentially with n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and water. Two active compounds were isolated from ethyl acetate fraction by silica gel column chromatography, and were identified as isoquercitrin ($quercetin-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucose$) and hyperoside ($quercetin-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucose$). Isoquercitrin and hyperoside showed strong antioxidative potency, as revealed by evaluation of their ABTS, DPPH, OH, and $H_{2}O_{2}$ radical-scavenging activities, and ex vivo DNA damage-protecting effects.

신선초에서 항산화 활성 물질을 분리하기 위해 신선초를 80% 에탄올 추출하고 추출물에 대한 계통 분획을 실시하여 n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol 및 water의 총 5가 분획으로 나누어 항산화 활성을 측정한 결과 ethyl acetate 분획의 활성이 가장 높아 ethyl acetate 분획물로부터 항산화 활성 물질을 분리 정제하였다. Silica gel column chromatography를 통하여 chloroform : methanol : water의 용매 조건을 점차적으로 변경하면서 소분획으로 나누고 항산화 활성이 가장 높은 소분획에 대해서 acetylation 반응을 실시하고 이를 n-hexane : ethyl acetate : methanol의 용매 조건으로 단일 물질로 분리 한후 deacetylation 반응을 거쳐 최종 두 개의 단일 화합물을 획득했다. 두 개의 단일 화합물에 대한 구조 해석을 기기분석을 통해서 진행 한 결과 이 두 화합물을 각각 isoquercitrin과 hyperoside로 최종 동정하였다. Isoquercitrin과 hyperoside에 대한 항산화 활성을 DPPH radical 소거법, ABTS radical 소거법, OH radical 소거법 및 $H_{2}O_{2}$ 소거법으로 측정한 결과 4가지 assay법에 대해서 저농도에서 고른 항산화 활성을 나타냈고, 또한 DNA 손상에 대한 보호 효과를 측정한 결과 isoquercitrin과 hyperoside 모두 손상된 DNA에 대한 보호 효과를 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 isoquercitrin과 hyperoside는 DPPH radical 소거능과 ABTS radical 소거능과 같은 기본적인 항산화 활성과 더불어 DNA 손상에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 OH radical과 $H_{2}O_{2}$에 대해서 높은 항산화 활성을 나타내면서 동시에 DNA 손상에 대한 보호 효과를 나타냄으로써 다양한 경로의 항산화 메커니즘에 작용한다는 사실을 유추해 볼 수 있으며 산업적으로 유용한 소재로서의 연구가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
