ABSTRACT
13 quinic acid derivatives along with caffeic acid, methyl caffeate, myo-inositol, bis[5-formylfurfuryl] ether and 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin were isolated from the ethanol extract of the flower buds of Lonicera bournei Hemsl., among which 8 compounds were firstly obtained from this genus. The effects of different solvent soluble fractions of the ethanol extract and the pure compounds on heptocyte death induced by D-galactosamine (D-GalN)/tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) were studied, and the structure-activity relationships were also discussed.
