Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To study the hypolipidemic active compounds from Crataegus pinnatifida and mechanism of action of those.

METHOD: Guided by the inhibitory activity to HMG-CoA reductase, the active compounds were separated and purified with macroporous resin and silica gel.

RESULT: Four active compounds were obtained, which were quercetin, hyperoside, rutin and chlorogenic acid, the sum of their inhibitory rate was 50.01%, and the total inhibitory rate of the mixture of four active compounds matched was 79.48%.

CONCLUSION: Quercetin and hyperoside were the principle active components inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase in Hawthorn fruit, and there were synergistic action among them.
