Title Isolation of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural from Lycium chinense and its inhibitory effect on the chemical mediator release by basophilic cells.
Journal Planta Med
Abstract The effect of hot water extracts of LYCIUM CHINENSE fruits (LCF) on the β-hexosaminidase (β-hexo) release by IgE sensitized BSA stimulated rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells was investigated. The ethylacetate (EtOAc) layer of the extract has shown an inhibitory effect on β-hexo release from RBL-2H3 cells at the antigen antibody binding stage. The water (H₂O) fraction (EFW) of the chloroform (CHCl₃) extract from the EtOAc layer also inhibited β-hexo release at the same stage in a dose-dependent manner. With column chromatography preparation, proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H and ¹³C NMR) spectra, electron ionization mass spectrometer (EI-MS) spectra, and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis, the active component was determined to be 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (5-HMF). Thus, the 5-HMF showed an inhibitory effect on β-hexo release at the antigen-antibody binding stage and the antibody-receptor binding stage. Furthermore, 5-HMF suppressed [Ca²+] I influx in the IgE-sensitized BSA-stimulated RBL-2H3 cells. Our results show that 5-HMF may be useful for the treatment or prevention of type I allergic diseases.
