fruit, at present, is becoming increasingly popular as a functional foodstuff with several nutritional and medicinal properties. To explore the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity of extracts from the Michx. fruit (RLMF), a simple and efficient enrichment purification technology based on microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and multi vacuum extraction columns (VEC) was applied to screen and identify triterpenoids (TTs) in the RLMF extracts. The MAE conditions were optimized using the Box-Behnken design (BBD) with a quadratic regression model and the response surface method (RSM). The optimum conditions were as follows: ethanol concentration, 69%; extraction time, 12 min; ratio of liquid to raw material, 26 : 1 mL g; and microwave power, 528 W. Under these conditions, the maximum content of triterpenoids reached 62.48 ± 0.25 mg g, which was close to the predicted value of 62.69 mg g. In addition, two pure polyhydroxy triterpenoids: 2α,3β,19α,23-tetrahydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid (1) and 2α,3β,19α,23-tetrahydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid-28--β-d-glucopyrannoside (2) were isolated and enriched to more than 500 mg by a multi VEC method. Furthermore, the quantities of compounds 1 and 2 from RLMF were 5.36 and 10.37 mg g, respectively, as determined using HPLC. These compounds were further assessed for acetylcholinesterase inhibitory and neuroprotection properties. The results showed that 1 and 2 showed potent AChE inhibitory activities with IC values of 29.22 and 45.47 μg mL, respectively. At high concentration, compounds 1 and 2 produced a 92% and 89% inhibition on the target enzyme, which was consistent with docking results between AChE and each isolate. Moreover, both 1 and 2 exhibited potential neuroprotective activities against HO-induced SHSY5Y cell death.
目前,水果作为一种具有多种营养和药用特性的功能性食品正变得越来越受欢迎。为了探究美国柿(RLMF)果实提取物的乙酰胆碱酯酶(AChE)抑制活性,采用基于微波辅助萃取(MAE)和多真空萃取柱(VEC)的简单高效富集纯化技术,对RLMF提取物中的三萜类化合物(TTs)进行筛选和鉴定。采用Box-Behnken设计(BBD)、二次回归模型和响应面法(RSM)对MAE条件进行优化。最佳条件如下:乙醇浓度69%;提取时间12分钟;液料比26∶1 mL/g;微波功率528 W。在此条件下,三萜类化合物的最大含量达到62.48±0.25 mg/g,接近预测值62.69 mg/g。此外,通过多VEC方法分离并富集了两种纯的多羟基三萜类化合物:2α,3β,19α,23-四羟基乌苏-12-烯-28-酸(1)和2α,3β,19α,23-四羟基乌苏-12-烯-28-酸-28--β-d-吡喃葡萄糖苷(2),含量超过500 mg。此外,采用高效液相色谱法测定,RLMF中化合物1和2的含量分别为5.36和10.37 mg/g。对这些化合物的乙酰胆碱酯酶抑制和神经保护特性进行了进一步评估。结果表明,1和2表现出较强的AChE抑制活性,IC值分别为29.22和45.47 μg/mL。在高浓度下,化合物1和2对目标酶的抑制率分别为92%和89%,这与AChE与每种分离物之间的对接结果一致。此外,1和2均对过氧化氢诱导的SHSY5Y细胞死亡表现出潜在的神经保护活性。
