Some pharmacological activities of acanthoic acid, isolated from Acanthopanax koreanum root was investigated in animals. It is revealed that the compound had analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities without actions on central nervous system and showed inhibition of lipid peroxidation. The anti-inflammatory activity might be related to inhibition of prostaglandin E$_2$ synthesis in exudates of inflammation.

From the water fraction of the MeOH extract, three compounds, 1,3,4,5-terrahydroxycyclo-hexanecarboxylic acid 3-(3,4-dihydroxycinnamate) (chlorogenic acid), $quercetin 3-O-{\beta}-D-galactopyranoside(hyperoside)$, and 1 (R)-hydroxy-3,4-seco-lup-4(23), 20(30)-dien-3,$11{\alpha}-olactone-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyrnaosy(1{\rightarrow}4)-{\beta}-D-glucopyanosy(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-L-glucopyrnaosyl$ ester (chiisanoside) were isolated and their strutures determinated by $^1H-NMR,{\;}^{13}C-NMR$, IR, and FAB-Mass. Chlorogenic acid and Chiisanoside had been quantitated by HPLC from eight Acanthopanax species per 10 g A. koreanum 19.82, 4.17 mg, A. nambunensis 65.00, 1.86mg, A. chiisanense 27.19, 8.17mg, A. sessiliflorum 7.49, 5.88 mg.

Analysis of flavonoid contents in the fruits of Acanthopanax species (A. chiisanensis, A. divaricatus, A. koreanum, A. senticosus, and A. sessiliflorus) was conducted by high performance liquid chromatography. A Discovery$^{(R)}$ C18 ($4.6{\times}250$ mm, 5 ${\mu}m$) column was used with a gradient mobile phase of water and acetonitrile (90 : 10 to 60 : 40 for 60 min) and UV detection was conducted at 350 nm. The contents of rutin, hyperin, quercetin, afzelin, and kaempferol were 0.063~0.540, 0.494~7.480, 0.584~0.704, 0.388~0.567, 0.190~0.471 mg/g, respectively, in the fruits of Acanthopanax species. Total content of flavonoids in the fruits of Acanthopanax species was highest in those of A. chiisanensis. Furthermore, hyperin was the most abundant compound in the fruits of Acanthopanax species. Consequently, our results demonstrate that the fruits of Acanthopanax species containing flavonoids have promising potential as a new income source of agriculture and industry in medicinal natural products, health supplements, and beverages.

This study was evaluated to biological activity of breeding lines from Acantopanax( A. sessiliflorus: ASF, A. koreanum: AKN, A. chiicanensis: ACS, A. senticosus: AST) and parts(root, stem, fruit, and leaf) and various extracted solvents( 100% water, 100% EtOH, 50% EtOH). Total polyphenol content of AKN root in 100% water extracts was high detected 464.46 mg/100 g. Total flavonoid content in the leaf was significantly higher than in other parts. The content of total sugars was high in the 50% EtOH extracts and fruit. The major free amino acids were arginine in all extracts. The content of arginine was detected in the root of AKN(1.807 mg/100 mg). Contents of eleutheroside B, E were high detected in 100% water extracts. Antioxidative capacity in the leaves of AKN was the higher than other extracts($EC_{50}=84.8{\mu}g/mL$). The results would be useful for understanding of the physiological properties of AKN extracts.
