The dried rhizome of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge is nontoxic and is used for various purposes in food and traditional medicine. Pharmacological studies have reported its anticancer, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects. Extraction, fractionation, and open column chromatography were performed to isolate compounds derived from A. membranaceus with various activities. As a result of this process, two known pterocarpans (1 and 2) were successfully isolated. As a result of spectroscopic data analysis, the isolated compounds were identified as (6aR,11aR)-3,9-dimethoxy- 10-hydroxypterocarpan (1) and 9,10-dimethoxypterocarpan 3-O-β- D-glucopyranoside (2), respectively. In addition, quantitative analysis by Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography / Electrospray IonizationI- Quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry revealed that the content of 1 was 0.133 ± 0.0006 mg/ g and the content of 2 was 0.129 ± 0.004 mg/g in the 70% methanol extract of Astragalus membranaceus. All compounds exhibited significant protective effects against alloxan-induced pancreatic islet damage in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae.
