Authors: Ahn JH, Liu Q, Lee C, Ahn MJ, Yoo HS, Hwang BY, Lee MK.

Abstract: A new phenolic compound, broussonone A (1) were isolated from the stem barks of Broussonetia kanzinoki (Moraceae), together with two diphenylpropanes, broussonin A (2), broussonin B (3), two flavans, 7,4'-dihydroxyflavan (4), 3',7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavan (5), and two flavones, 3,7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavone (6), 3,7,3'-trihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavone (7). Compound 1 showed noncompetitive inhibitory activity on pancreatic lipase with an IC(50) of 28.4 μM. In addition, compounds 1-5 significantly inhibited adipocyte differentiation in 3T3-L1 cells as measured fat accumulation using Oil Red O assay.
