The whole plant of Phyllanthus debilis (Euphorbiacae) afforded a new oxirano-furanocoumarin, characterized as 5-hydroxy-7-methoxy-furanocoumarin-9(14)-cyclohex-12(13)-oxirano-11-one (1), named as debelalactone. Debelalactone exhibited a significant antihepatotoxic activity by reducing the elevated levels of serum enzymes such as serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (SGOT) by 59.14%, serum glutamate pyruvate oxaloacetate transaminase (SGPT) by 61.84%, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) by 85.93%; while the total protein (TP) levels were increased by 110.35%, when compared with standard drug silymarin that have decreased SGOT by 77.03%, SGPT by 69.67%, ALP by 93.18%, and increased TP levels by 100.48%, respectively, against CCl(4)-induced toxicity in Wistar rats. These biochemical observations were also supplemented by histopathological examinations of the liver sections.
柔弱叶下珠(大戟科)全草分离得到一种新的环氧乙烷-呋喃香豆素,鉴定为5-羟基-7-甲氧基-呋喃香豆素-9(14)-环己-12(13)-环氧乙烷-11-酮(1),命名为debelalactone。Debelalactone具有显著的抗肝毒性活性,可使血清谷氨酸草酰乙酸转氨酶(SGOT)水平升高降低59.14%,血清谷氨酸丙酮酸转氨酶(SGPT)水平升高降低61.84%,碱性磷酸酶(ALP)水平升高降低85.93%;与标准药物水飞蓟宾相比,总蛋白(TP)水平升高110.35%,水飞蓟宾对Wistar大鼠四氯化碳诱导的毒性作用使SGOT、SGPT、ALP水平分别降低77.03%、69.67%、93.18%,TP水平升高100.48%。这些生化观察结果也得到了肝脏切片组织病理学检查的补充。
