Inhibitory effect on NO production of triterpenes from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma lucidum

초록

Four new lanostane triterpenes, butyl lucidenate P (1), butyl lucidenate D-2 (2), butyl lucidenate E-2 (3) and butyl lucidenate Q (4) along with 11 known compounds (5-15) were isolated from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma lucidum. Their chemical structures were established mainly by 1D and 2D NMR techniques and mass spectrometry. Their anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated against LPS-induced NO production in macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. Compounds 1, 3, 4, 9, 10 and 15 showed inhibitory potency with IC50 values of 7.4, 6.4, 4.3, 9.4, 9.2 and 4.5 mu M, respectively. Compounds 1, 3 and 15 dose-dependently reduced the LPS-induced iNOS expressions. Preincubation of cell with 1, 3 and 15 significantly suppressed LPS-induced expression of COX-2 protein.
