As an attempt to search for bioactive natural constituents exerting antinociceptive and antiinflammatory activities, we examined the potency of the extract of Rubus coreanus fruits by the activity-guided fractionation. The EtOAc- and BuOH fraction and those alkaline hydrolysates showed significant antinociceptive effects as assessed by writhing-, hot plate- and tail flicks tests in mice and rats as well as antiinflammatory effect in rats with carrageenan-induced edema. BuOH extract was subjected to column chromatography to obtain a large amount of niga-ichigoside F(1) (1,23-hydroxytormentic acid 28-O-glc), which was again hydrolyzed in NaOH solution to yield an aglycone 23-hydroxytormentic acid (1a). The aglycone, 23-hydroxytormentic acid, was much more potent in both antinociceptive and antiinflammatory tests than the glycoside, niga-ichigoside F(1). The antiinflammatory effects of these compounds were further supported by the reduction of carrageenan-induced lipid peroxidation and hydroxyl radical in serum. These results suggested that 23-hydroxytormentic acid might be an active moiety of niga-ichigoside F(1) present in R. coreanus.
