Abstract

As a medicinal and edible food, Hippophae rhamnoides Linn. subsp. sinensis Rousi is plenty of bioactive secondary metabolites including flavonoids and their derivatives, which have a certain protective effect on oxidative damage. The present study isolated three new kaempferol derivatives (compound 1-3), named Hippophandine A-C, from H. rhamnoides seed residue. The structures of Hippophandine A-C were explicated by HR-ESI-MS, NMR, and chemical analyses. Hippophandine A-C (1, 5, and 10 µM) were used to attenuate H2O2-induced cell death in SH-SY5Y and explore the mechanism in oxidative damage. The results elucidated that Hippophandine A-C reduced MDA, and increased the relative SOD, GSH, CAT contents, Nrf2 and HO-1 expression in H2O2-induced SH-SY5Y.
