Aggregation Inhibitory Activity of Minor Acetophenones from Paeonia Species

Abstract
Two minor acetophenones, 2,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxyacetophenone ( 2) and 2,5-dihydroxy-4-methylacetophenone (7) from Paeonia species were found to selectively inhibit the aggregation of rabbit platelets induced by arachidonic acid. They were more potent than the major compound, paeonol (1), and 7 also inhibited the formation of TXA2 and PGD 2 from arachidonic acid.
