Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To study the chemical constituents of the leaves Salix matsudana and their influence on norepinephrine-induced lipolysis. METHOD: The chemical constituents were studied by means of chemical methods and spectral analysis. Rat's epididymal lipocytes were used to observe the effect of these constituents on the lipolysis promoted by norepinephrine (NE). RESULT: Three constituents were isolated from the leaves of S. matsudana, and identified as apigenin-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, luteolin-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, luteolin-3'-methyl ether-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, of which two can increase the release of free fatty acids(FFA) in the process lipolysis promoted by NE. CONCLUSION: All the three constituents were isolated from the leaves of Salix spp. for the first time.
