摘要

A series of II flavonol glucuronides were isolated from the herb of Polygonum aviculare L (Ph.Eur) of which 8 were reported for the first time from the Polygonum species. Three acetylated kaempferol and isorhamnetin glucuronides were isolated from a natural source for the first time. All compounds, including the new ones, were characterized using ID and 2D NMR spectra as well as high resolution mass spectrometry. The influence of all isolated compounds on the production of reactive oxygen species, as well as on elastase release by human neutrophils, was evaluated in in vitro studies. The results showed that all investigated compounds at physiologically achievable concentrations within the range of 0.5-10 mu M significantly inhibited the production of reactive oxygen species as well as elastase release in human neutrophils model and should be considered as responsible for anti-inflammatory activity of the P. aviculare herb. The chemotaxonomic value of isolated compounds was also discussed.
