Screening and Isolation of Potential Anti-Inflammatory Compounds from Saxifraga atrata via Affinity Ultrafiltration-HPLC and Multi-Target Molecular Docking Analyses.

ABSTRACT: In this study, a 100 g sample of Saxifraga atrata was processed to separate 1.3 g of 11-O-(4′-O-methylgalloyl)-bergenin (Fr1) after 1 cycle of MCI GEL® CHP20P medium pressure liquid chromatography using methanol/water. Subsequently, COX-2 affinity ultrafiltration coupled with reversed-phase liquid chromatography was successfully used to screen for potential COX-2 ligands in this target fraction (Fr1). After 20 reversed-phase liquid chromatography runs, 74.1 mg of >99% pure 11-O-(4′-O-methylgalloyl)-bergenin (Fr11) was obtained. In addition, the anti-inflammatory activity of 11-O-(4′-O-methylgalloyl)-bergenin was further validated through molecular docking analyses which suggested it was capable of binding strongly to ALOX15, iNOS, ERBB2, SELE, and NF-κB. As such, the AA metabolism, MAPK, a
