Abstract
Gentiana verna L. subsp. pontica (Soltok.) Hayek, G. pyrenaica L., and G. verna L. subsp. balcanica Pritchard from Turkey were tested for their MAO-A inhibitory effects. A photometric peroxidase linked MAO-A bioassay performed on the H2O extracts prepared from the methanolic extracts of the title plants revealed the potential effect of G. verna subsp. pontica and three benzophenone glucosides; 2,3′-dihydroxy-4-methoxy-benzophenone-6-O-β- glucopyranoside (1), 2,4,3′,4′-tetrahydroxy-benzophenone-6-O-β- glucopyranoside (maclurin-6-O-β-glucopyranoside) (2) and 2,4,3′-trihydroxy-benzophenone-6-O-β-glucopyranoside (3) isolated from G. verna subsp. pontica. Among the benzophenone glucosides 1 and 2 exhibited significant inhibition of MAO-A (IC50=31.3±4 μM and 41±4.7 μM resp.).
