Five New Homoisoflavonoids from the Tuber of Ophiopogon japonicus

Abstract: Five new homoisoflavonoids, ophiopogonanone C (1), ophiopogonanone D (2), ophiopogonone C (3), ophiopogonanone E (4) and ophiopogonanone F (5), and six known compounds were isolated from an ethanol extract of the tubers of Ophiopogon japonicus (Thunb) Ker-Gawl. Spectroscopic analyses were used to elucidate the structures of these compounds.

“…These plants are ethnomedicinally important as the isolated homoisoflavonoid compounds have excreted antimutagenic and anticlastogenic properties. Accordingly, isolation of natural representatives [5][6][7][8][9][10] and synthesis of their analogues [11] are intensive fields of research due to the great pharmacological importance of the compounds. Earlier several derivatives have been synthesized to evaluate their structure-to-antiproliferative activity.…”

“…Liriope platyphylla Wang et Tang (LPWT) extract, Liliaceae, has also been used for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Active components of LPWT has been identified as homoisoflavonoids (ophiopogone, methylopiogonone, etc), sterols (h-sistosterol etc), and steroidal glycosides (ruscogenin, ophiopogonin, etc) (Asano et al, 1993;Chang et al, 2002;Yu et al, 1996), but the functions have not been investigated. In the present study, the fractions of LPWT extracts were screened for their effects as an insulin sensitizer through insulin mediated glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, and the mechanism of action of the LPWT extract fractions as an insulin sensitizer was investigated.…”

“…Ophiopogon species (Liliaceae) are abundant in homoisoflavonoids. Up to now, at least 30 homoisoflavonoids have been isolated from these plants [13][14][15][16][17][18][19] (Figure 1). Recently, we isolated five pure homoisoflavonoids from O. japonicus, a traditional Chinese medicine (Mai-Dong) frequently used as a tonic drug in the clinic.…”
