Two new chromone glycosides from Drynaria fortunei

Two new chromone glycosides, drynachromoside A (1), drynachromoside B (2), along with three known flavanones, 5,7,3',5'-tetrahydroxy-flavanone (3), 5,7,3',5'-tetrahydroxy-flavanone-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (4), and 5,7,3',5'-tetrahydroxy-flavanone-7-O-neohesperidoside (5), were isolated from the dry rhizomes of Drynaria fortunei by means of bio-active screening. The two former compounds were elucidated on the basis of physico-chemical property and spectroscopic data. The osteoblastic proliferation activities of these Flavonoids were evaluated by the method of MTT. The results showed that compound 1 exhibited the biochemical effects on the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells, while Compound 2 showed inhibitory effects against MC3T3-E1 cells.
