Centellosides viz., asiatic acid, madecassic acid, asiaticoside, madecassoside, are the major bioactive molecules in Centella asiatica. In this study madecassic acid:asiatic acid, madecassoside:asiaticoside (C6-hydroxylation versus non-hydroxylation) and asiaticoside:asiatic acid, madecassoside:madecassic acid (C28-glycoside versus aglycone) ratios in 50 C. asiatica accessions originally collected from their natural habitats in south India and grown under identical ecological conditions for six generations were determined using validated HPTLC-densitometry protocols. Asiatic acid, madecassic acid, asiaticoside and madecassoside contents ranged from 0.00-0.29% (average 0.03 ± 0.06%; 28 accessions recorded asiatic acid content as zero), 0.02-0.72% (0.12 ± 0.13%), 0.04-2.41% (0.44 ± 0.52%) and 0.15-5.27% (1.59 ± 1.26%), respectively. Distinctly, C6-hydroxylated (madecassic acid:asiatic acid 4.00, madecassoside:asiaticoside 3.61) and C28-glycosylated (asiaticoside:asiatic acid 14.67, madecassoside: madecassic acid 13.25) centellosides dominated over the respective non-derivatized entities. Our results infer that both C6-hydroxylation by CYP450-dependent monooxygenases and C28-glycosylation by UDP-Glc glucosyltransferases are dominant bioconversion steps in C. asiatica. Besides, this study discovered six elite lines of C. asiatica, with their (asiaticoside + madecassoside) contents above the industrial benchmark (≥ 4%) from south India. Two elite clones with asiaticoside contents ≥ 2% were also identified. Standardization of the agrotechniques of these elite lines could lead to their industrial applications. Further, this study emphasizes the need for standardizing all four centellosides as biomarkers in C. asiatica raw drugs, pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.
积雪草苷,即羟基积雪草酸、积雪草酸、积雪草苷、羟基积雪草苷,是积雪草中的主要生物活性分子。在这项研究中,使用经过验证的 HPTLC 密度测定法协议,确定了最初从印度南部自然栖息地采集的 50 种积雪草植物中(C6-羟化与非羟化)积雪草酸:羟基积雪草酸、积雪草苷:羟基积雪草苷(C28-糖苷与苷元)的比例以及在相同生态条件下生长六代的植物。羟基积雪草酸、积雪草酸、积雪草苷和羟基积雪草苷的含量范围为 0.00-0.29%(平均值为 0.03±0.06%;28 个品种的积雪草酸含量为零)、0.02-0.72%(0.12±0.13%)、0.04-2.41%(0.44±0.52%)和 0.15-5.27%(1.59±0.12%)。明显的是,C6-羟化(羟基积雪草酸:积雪草酸 4.00,积雪草苷:羟基积雪草苷 3.61)和 C28-糖苷化(积雪草苷:积雪草酸 14.67,积雪草苷:羟基积雪草苷 13.25)的积雪草苷明显优于相应的非衍生实体。我们的研究结果推断,CYP450 依赖性单加氧酶的 C6-羟化和 UDP-Glc 葡萄糖基转移酶的 C28-糖苷化都是积雪草中的主要生物转化步骤。此外,这项研究还发现了印度南部六种(积雪草苷+羟基积雪草苷)含量超过工业基准(≥4%)的积雪草优良品种。还鉴定了两个积雪草苷含量≥2%的优良克隆。这些优良品种农艺技术的标准化可能会导致其在工业上的应用。此外,本研究强调需要将这四种积雪草苷标准化为积雪草原料药、药品和化妆品的生物标志物。
