Abstract: | There is no drug administration-approved therapy for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). In this study, eight compounds, gallic acid (1), methyl gallate (2), corilagin (3), 3,4,8,9,10-pentahydroxydibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-one (4), repandinin B (5), (Z)-3-hexenyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (6), (+)-lyoniresinol-3α-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (7) and mallophenol A (8) were isolated from the active fractions of Mallotus furetianus. Three compounds, (6, 7 and 8) revealed potent anti-steatosis activity in the oleic acid (OA)-induced steatosis cell model, with the minimum effective concentration of 0.05 (6), 0.0005 (7) and 0.0005 (8) μg/mL, which were much lower than the control compound, fibrate (72.4 μg/mL). |
