Abstract

Activity-guided fractionation of an ethyl acetate (EtOAc)-soluble portion of an ethanolic extract from the leaves of cultivated mountain ginseng, using pancreatic lipase inhibition assay, led to the isolation and identification of three flavonoids of a previously described structure, kaempferol-3-O-sophoroside (I), kaempferol-3-O-${\beta}$-Dglucopyranoside (astragalin, II) and kaempferol (III). All compounds (I.III) showed pancreatic lipase inhibitory activities, with $IC_{50}$ values ranging from $20.3{\pm}2.2$ to $9.1{\pm}1.5$ ${\mu}M$, kaempferol (III) showed the most potent inhibitory activity with an $IC_{50}$ of $9.1{\pm}1.5$ ${\mu}M$. The level of activity may depend on the number of C-3 glucosyl group(s) linked to the kaempferol backbone, and the isolated compounds may have promise as pancreatic lipase inhibitors.

신선한 산양삼 잎을 EtOH로 침지 추출하여 얻어진 추출물을 n-hexane, EtOAc, n-BuOH 로 용매 분획하였다. 이중 pancreatic lipase 저해활성이 상대적으로 높은 EtOAc 분획에 대해 silica 및 $C_{18}$ column chromatography를 이용하여 3개의 flavonoid 화합물을 분리하였다. 각 화합물의 화학구조는 NMR 스펙트럼 데이터 해석 및 표품과의 HPLC 직접 비교를 통하여 kaempferol-3-O-sophoroside (I), astragalin (II), kaempferol (III)로 동정하였다. 이들 화합물중 kaempferol (III)는 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $9.1{\pm}1.5$ mM로 가장 강한 효능을 나타내었으며, 다음으로 C-3 번 위치에 1개의 glucose가 결합한 astragalin (II)의 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $17.4{\pm}2.7$ ${\mu}M$, C-3 번 위치에 2개의 glucose가 결합한 kaempferol-3-O-sophoroside (I)의 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $20.3{\pm}2.2$ ${\mu}M$의 저해능을 나타내었다. 산양삼 잎의 EtOAc 가용부에에 존재하는 flavonoid계 pancreatic lipase 저해활성 물질을 동정하였으며, 이들 활성은 kaempferol 타입의 화합물은 C-3위치에 당 결합에 의한 hydrophobicity와 관련됨을 시사하였다. 향후 이들 활성물질의 활성 기작에 대한 연구가 필요하며 본 연구결과는 보다 우수한 pancreatic lipase 저해능을 가지는 새로운 선도화합물 발굴을 위한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 산양삼잎의 식물 화학적 성분에 대한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
