Abstract

To search for the aldose reductase (AR) inhibitors from Korean folk plants, the inhibition of rat lens AR in vitro using the methanol (MeOH) extracts from Korean folk plants in Chungcheong Province was investigated. Among Korean folk plants tested, the MeOH extract of Persicaria longiseta showed highest inhibition of AR ($IC_{50}$ value, $5.14{\mu}g/ml$). Consequently, P. longiseta has a possibility of new natural resources for the development of AR inhibitor for the prevention of diabetic complications.
