摘要
Estrogenic activities of ethanol extract and its active components from Psoralea corylifolia L were studied using various in vitro assays. The main components from ethanol extract were analyzed to be bakuchiol, psoralen, isobavachalcone, isobavachromene, and bavachinin. In a fractionation procedure, hexane and chloroform fractions showed estrogenic activity in yeast transactivation assay and E-screen assay. In yeast transactivation assay, ethanol extract, hexane, and chloroform fractions showed significantly higher activities at a concentration of 1.0 ng/ml, and bakuchiol at the concentration of 10(-6) M was showed the highest activity, especially, which was higher than genistein at the same concentration. In E-screen assay, cell proliferation of bakuchiol (10(-6) M) showed similar estrogenic activity with genistein (10(-6) M). In ER binding assay, bakuchiol displayed the strongest ER-binding affinity (IC50 for ER alpha = 1.01 x 10(-6) M, IC50 for ER beta = 1.20 x 10(-6) M) and bakuchiol showed five times higher affinity for ER alpha than for ER beta.
