마디풀(Polygonum aviculare L.)의 전초가 지질과산화(脂質過酸化) 및 간기능(肝機能)에 미치는 영향

Anti-lipid Peroxidation and Liver Protective Effects of Polygonum aviculare L.

Polygonum aviculare L. was extracted by methanol and then fractionated systematically with solvents and column chromatographic method in order to isolate ingredients with anti-lipid peroxidation and liver protectective effects. Among these fractions, ethylacetate soluble part(MWE) showed the strongest in the anti-lipid peroxidation. Furthermore, the crude subtraction(MWE 4) with Rf value near 0.42, which is separated from MWE by column chromatography using a solvent system, inhibited the lipid peroxidation of rat liver in vitro. Moreover, MWE 4 decreased GOT, GPT and TBA value compared with control and suggested high protective effects against hepatotoxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride in mice. The active compounds in MWE 4 were assumed to be flavonoid glucosides.
