Isolation of Grb2-Shc Interaction Inhibitory Compounds from the Leaves of Eucommia ulmoides O.

두충(Eucommia ulmoides O.)잎으로부터 Grb2-Shc 결합저해 활성물질의 분리

The MeOH extracts obtained from the leaves of Eucommia ulmoides were solvent-fractionated with EtOAc, n-BuOH, and $H_20$, successively. From the EtOAc extract showing Grab2-Shc inhibitory activity, a flavonol and a lignan compounds were isolated through repeated silica gel column chromatographies. By interpretation of several spectral data and adaptation of acetylation method, the chemical structures of the compounds were determined as 5,7,3',4'-tetrahydroxy-flavonol (quercetin), and 4,4',8',9-tetrahydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxy-7,9'-cyclolignan {(-)-olivil)}, respectively. The compounds exhibited $IC_{50}$ values in Grb2-Shc inhibitory activity to be 93 and $210\;{\mu}mole/l$, respectively.
