The structures of two products were identified as （2S）-5,7,2＇,5＇-tetrahydroxyflavanone-2＇-O-β-D-6＂-O-acetylglucopyranoside and （2S）- 5,7,2＇,5＇-tetrahydroxyflavanone-2＇-O-β-D-glucopyranoside on the basis of their chemical and spectral analysis, respectively.展开更多

The present study was conducted to evaluate hepatoprotective potential of ethanol extract from M. torresiana aerial parts(EEMTAP)and detect the polyphenolic compounds present in the extract using high performance thin layer chromatography(HPTLC). Hepatoprotective potential of EEMTAP were tested at doses of 300 and 600 mg/kg, per os(p.o.), on Wistar albino rats. The extract and silymarin treated animal groups showed significant decrease in activities of different biochemical parameters like serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase(SGOT), serum glutamate-pyruvate transaminase(SGPT), and alkaline phosphatase(ALP), which were elevated by carbon tetrachloride(CCl_4) intoxication. The levels of total bilirubin and total protein along with the liver weight were also restored to normalcy by EEMTAP and silymarin treatment. After CCl_4 administration, the levels of hepatic antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione(GSH) and catalase(CAT) were decreased whereas the level of hepatic lipid peroxidation(LPO) was elevated. The levels of these hepatic antioxidant enzymes were also brought to normalcy by EEMTAP and silymarin treatment. Histological studies supported the biochemical findings, and treatment with EEMTAP at doses of 300 and 600 mg/kg, p.o. was found to be effective in restoring CCl_4-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. A simple HPTLC analysis was conducted for the detection of polyphenolic compounds in EEMTAP, and the result revealed the presence of caffeic acid as phenolic acid and quercetin as flavonoid. The proposed HPTLC method is simple and concise and provides a good resolution of caffeic acid and quercetin from other constituents present in EEMTAP.展开更多
