Leveille is a traditional medicine used to treat migraine headache and dysmenorrhea. In this study, three polyacetylenes, methyl (10,9,16)-16-acetoxy-9-hydroxyoctadeca-10,17-dien-12,14-diynoate (), methyl (10,9,16)-9,16-dihydroxyoctadeca-10-en-12,14-diynoate (), and methyl (10,9,16)-9,16-dihydroxyoctadeca-10,17-dien-12,14-diynoate (), were isolated from the aerial parts of . , together with seven known compounds (-). Importantly, the isolates ( and ) were found in the family Araliaceae for the first time in this study. Compounds - were evaluated for their binding affinity to AMPK and CTSS receptors using in silico docking simulations. Only compound increased the protein expression levels of PPAR-α, Sirt1, and AMPK when administered to HepG2 cells as a PPAR-α agonist. On the other hand, did not produce any significant reduction in CTSS activity. This study could pave the way for the discovery of novel treatments from targeting PPAR-α and AMPK.
勒韦尔是一种用于治疗偏头痛和痛经的传统药物。在本研究中，从[植物名称]的地上部分分离出三种聚乙炔类化合物，即(10,9,16)-16-乙酰氧基-9-羟基十八碳-10,17-二烯-12,14-二炔酸甲酯（）、(10,9,16)-9,16-二羟基十八碳-10-烯-12,14-二炔酸甲酯（）和(10,9,16)-9,16-二羟基十八碳-10,17-二烯-12,14-二炔酸甲酯（），还分离出七种已知化合物（-）。重要的是，在本研究中首次在五加科植物中发现了分离物（和）。使用计算机对接模拟评估了化合物-对AMPK和CTSS受体的结合亲和力。当作为PPAR-α激动剂施用于HepG2细胞时，只有化合物增加了PPAR-α、Sirt1和AMPK的蛋白表达水平。另一方面，没有使CTSS活性产生任何显著降低。这项研究可能为从[植物名称]中发现靶向PPAR-α和AMPK的新疗法铺平道路。
