摘要
The aqueous acetone extract of Zedoariae Rhizoma was found to show inhibitory effects on contractions induced by high concentrations of potassium cation (K+) in isolated rat aortic strips. From the extract, two new carabrane-type sesquiterpenes, curcarabranols A and B, were isolated together with a few carabrane-type sesquiterpenes, such as curcumenone and 4S-dihydrocurcumenone. Their absolute stereostructures were determined on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence, which included the application of the modified Mosher's method and chemical conversion from curcumenone to curcarabranols A and B. In addition, several sesquiterpenes and diaryl-heptanoids (e.g. germacrone, glechomanolide, isocurucmenol, beta -eudesmol, and beta -dictyopterol) showed potent inhibitory effects on contractions induced by high concentrations of K+ in isolated rat aortic strips (inhibition > 80% at 100 muM), while they did not inhibit norepinephrine-induced contractions, so that the vasorelaxant activities of these sesquiterpenes were presumed to be dependent on their calcium channel-blocking activity.
