The polyphenol-rich fraction (WP, 45% polyphenol) prepared from the kernel pellicles of walnuts was assessed for its hepatoprotective effect in mice. A single oral administration of WP (200 mg/kg) significantly suppressed serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) elevation in liver injury induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), while it did not suppress D-galactosamine (GaIN)-induced liver injury. In order to identify the active principles in WP, we examined individual constituents for the protective effect on cell damage induced by CCl4 and D-GaIN in primary cultured rat hepatocytes. WP was effective against both CCl4- and D-GaIN-induced hepatocyte damages. Among the constituents, only ellagitannins with a galloylated glucopyranose core, such as tellimagrandins I, II, and rugosin C, suppressed CCl4-induced hepatocyte damage significantly. Most of the ellagitannins including tellimagrandin I and 2,3-0-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-glucose exhibited remarkable inhibitory effect against D-GaIN-induced damage. Telliamgrandin I especially completely suppressed both CCl4- and D-GaIN-induced cell damage, and thus is likely the principal constituent for the hepatoprotective effect of WP.
