a b s t r a c tCentella asiatica ('Pegaga' = Malaysia) is well known plant that has been used as one of the ingredients in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Using liquid chromatography with diode array and electrospray ionization/mass spectrometry (LC-DAD-ESI/MS) analysis, chemical profiling of three different Pegaga extracts (C. asiatica, H. bonariensis and H. sibthorpioides) revealed variations in their metabolite profile. Our findings showed that triterpenes of C. asiatica were characterized by the ursane-type triterpenes (madecassoside, asiaticoside, madecassic acid, and asiatic acid), while the two Hydrocotyle species consisted of oleanane-type triterpenes (barrigenol derivatives). Other variations are due to the difference in phenolic and flavonoid constituents. The three Pegaga extracts were also evaluated for their total phenolic content (TPC), 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radicals, and xanthine oxidase inhibition (XOI) activities. The results showed that C. asiatica has the most potent antioxidant activity (TPC = 72.09 mg/100 g DW; DPPH = 72.99 g/ml; XOI = 87.68 g/ml) as compared to H. bonariensis (TPC = 28.55 mg/100 g DW; DPPH = 22.43 g/ml; XOI = 32.23 g/ml) and H. sibthorpioides (TPC = 56.23 mg/100 g DW; DPPH = 37.86 g/ml; XOI = 14.73. g/ml).

“…To find such inhibitor, botanical sources were relentlessly investigated to fish out any clinically applicable XO inhibitors (Kong et al, 2000;Sweeney et al, 2001;Zhu et al, 2004;Zhao et al, 2006;Wang et al, 2008).…”

“…7 The inhibitors of XO may be used for the treatment of gout or other XO induced diseases. 8 Several works have shown that phenolic compounds and flavonoids play a role as antioxidants including: inhibition of oxidative enzymes such as XO, 9 and scavenging of free radicals. 10 Plants are a rich source of antioxidants such as phenolic compounds, anthocyanins and flavonoïds.…”

Introduction: Paronychia argentea L. is used in traditional medicine to treat various diseases in Algeria especially kidney stones. This study was focused on the antioxidant and xanthine oxidase inhibitory activities of these plant extracts. Methods: The different extracts were prepared using solvents of increasing polarity, and their total polyphenols and flavonoids contents were determined using spectrophotomet ric methods. The antioxidant activities of Paronychia argentea extracts (PAE) were assessed by their inhibitory effect on xanthine oxidase (XO) and their scavenger ability on superoxide radical (O 2•-) generated by this enzyme. Results: The analysis PAE showed that ethyl-acetate extract (EaE) has the highest concentration of total phenolics and flavonoids compared with the chloroform extract (ChE) and the crude extract (CE). Results revealed that all PAE were effective in both XO inhibiting and superoxide radical scavenging, with the following order for the two assays: ChE > EaE > CE. Conclusion: This study provided evidence that PAE had interesting antioxidant potential which was confirmed using two enzymatic methods. Therefore, this plant could be used to treat gout and lot of diseases, where inhibition of XO and scavenging of superoxide radical are necessary.
