Abstract:
Objective: To clarify the contribution of inhibitory effect of the chemical composition of fingerprint characteristic peaks from different parts of Lepdium meyenii (Maca) on PDE5, and to elucidate the material basis. Methods: The HPLC fingerprints of different parts from L. meyenii were established. The isotope labelling method was adopted to test the inhibitory rate of different extracted parts on PDE5.The gray relative analysis and partial least-squares method were used to make correspond analysis of the spectrum-effect relationship. Results: The fingerprints of different extracts were established and five peaks of the total 21 characteristic common peaks were identified by HPLC spectrum of standards and LCMS-IT-TOF. The strong relevance elements including macamide alkaloids represented by peaks 22-24 were verified as the potential PDE5 inhibitors. Conclusion: A sensitive and convenient screening system for the PDE5 inhibitors via liquid scintillation counting is established. Macamides as liposoluble alkaloids could be material basis components to inhibit the activity of PDE5.This paper provides certain theory basis for resource utilization and the quality control of L. meyenii.
