Bioassay-guided fractionation of the EtOH extract of licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra roots), using a GAL-4-PPAR-γ chimera assay method, resulted in the isolation of 39 phenolics, including 10 new compounds (1-10). The structures of the new compounds were determined by analysis of their spectroscopic data. Among the isolated compounds, 5′-formylglabridin (5), (2R,3R)-3,4′,7-trihydroxy-3′-prenylflavane (7), echinatin, (3R)-2′,3′,7-trihydroxy-4′-methoxyisoflavan, kanzonol X, kanzonol W, shinpterocarpin, licoflavanone A, glabrol, shinflavanone, gancaonin L, and glabrone all exhibited significant PPAR-γ ligand-binding activity. The activity of these compounds at a sample concentration of 10 μg/mL was three times more potent than that of 0.5 μM troglitazone.
