Ik. Adnyana et al., 1-O-galloyl-6-O-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy)benzoyl-beta-D-glucose, a new hepatoprotective constituent from Combretum quadrangulare, PLANTA MED, 67(4), 2001, pp. 370-371
A new gallic acid derivative, 1-O-galloyl -6-O-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy)ben
zoyl-beta -D-glucose (1) has been isolated from an H2O-fraction of MeOH ext
ract of Combretum quadrongulare seeds. Compound 1 exhibited potent hepatopr
otective activity against D-GalN/TNF-alpha -induced cell death in primary c
ultured mouse hepatocytes with an IC50 of 3.3 muM.
