Abstract:
:The liposoluble constituents of leaves (LCL) and stem barks (LCSB) from Acanthopanax evodiaefolius Franch were extracted by Herbal Blitzkrieg Extractor (HBE), and their chemical composition was analyzed by GC-MS. 18 compounds were identified, representing 71.98% of LCL, while 35 compounds were identified, accounting for 98.28% of the LCSB. Their cytotoxic activity and inhibitory effect on nitric oxide (NO) production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells were tested and the LCL showed significant NO, IL-6 and TNF-α inhibition activity. These results provide the scientific basis for looking for new natural anti-inflammatory substances and exploiting and developing resources of A. evodiaefolius Franch.
