摘要：In an effort to characterize active principles for diabetic complication from medicinal mushroom, aldose reductase inhibitors were isolated from the fruiting body of Phellinus linteus and identified as hispidin (5), phelligridimer A (6), davallialactone (7), methyldavallialactone (8), hypholomine B (9), interfungins A (10), and inoscavin A (11), together with protocatechuic acid (1), protocatechualdehyde (2), caffeic acid (3), and ellagic acid (4). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses. Among them, davallialactone (7), hypholomine B (9), and ellagic acid (4) exhibited potent rat lens aldose reductase and human recombinant aldose reductase inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 0.33, 0.82, 0.63 μ M and 0.56, 1.28, 1.37 μ M , respectively.
