Agave plants are popular for their myriad applications in traditional medicine attributed to their reported anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, cytotoxic and antifungal activities. The aim of this study was to examine the anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and ulceroprotective activity of Agave species in relation to their metabolite fingerprint via a metabolome based ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS) approach coupled to chemometrics. The metabolomic differences among five examined Agave leaves viz. Agave americana L., A. americana var. marginata Trel, A. angustifolia Haw. cv. marginata, A. desmettiana Jacobi, A. pygmaea Gentry were determined via a total of 56 annotated metabolites. Identification based on MSn and UV spectra revealed 25 steroidal saponins and sapogenins, 6 flavonoids, 2 homoisoflavonoids, 7 phenolic acids, 6 fatty acids and 3 fatty acid amides, some of which are reported for the first time in Agave. Metabolites heterogeneity was assessed among leaf taxa via multivariate data analyses for samples classification, showing that saponins is the major metabolite contributing to their classification. The carrageenan induced acute inflammatory rat model was used to assess the anti-inflammatory activity of Agave extracts via monitoring of blood cytokine levels. Additionally, their effects on ethanol-induced gastric ulcer in rats were evaluated. A. pygmaea showed the most significant anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activity, while A. angustifolia var. marginata possessed the highest ulceroprotective activity, which could be attributable to the high abundance of various saponins and homoisoflavonoids in those taxa.
