Abstract: A new flavone C-glycoside, isovitexin 6"-O-glucoside (1), and three known flavonoids, quercetin, isovitexin, and luteolin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside, have been further isolated from the whole plant of Gentiana arisanensis Hayata. The new compound was characterized by spectral methods and chemical reactions. The antiplatelet effects of isovitexin 6"-O-glucoside (1), isoorientin (2), 2 peracetate (3), isovitexin (4), luteolin 7-O-beta-D-glucoside (5), luteolin (6), isoorientin 6"-O-glucoside (7), and 7 peracetate (8) were studied using washed rabbit platelets. Of the compounds tested, 6 showed potent antiplatelet effects on arachidonic acid (AA)-induced platelet aggregation (IC50 = 43.5 microM). The effect of 2, 5, and 6 on the contraction of rat thoracic aorta was also studied. Compound 6 depressed markedly the contraction induced by Ca2+ (1.9 mM) in high-K+ (80 mM) medium, with an IC50 of about 156 microM and also inhibited noradrenaline (3 microM)-induced phasic and tonic contractions, with an IC50 of about 68 and 72 microM, respectively.
