Deltonin, a steroidal saponin isolated from Dioscorea zingiberensis Wright, exhibits high cytotoxic activity in cancer cells. In the present study, the effects of deltonin on cell proliferation and apoptosis were evaluated in the MDA‑MB‑231 human breast carcinoma cell line. Following treatment with
For decades, despite the advancement of medical science, the prognosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), has not improved. Deltonin is one of the major active components of Dioscorea Zingiberensis Wright that has been used for anthrax, rheumatic heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis
Deltonin, a steroidal saponin, isolated from Dioscorea zingiberensis Wright (DZW), has shown high-cytotoxic activity in cancer cells. However, its mechanisms and in vivo anti-cancer effects remain unknown. In the present study, we evaluated the effects and explored the anti-tumor mechanisms of
Deltonin is an active component purified from Dioscorea zingiberensis WRIGHT (DZW), and has shown anticancer effects. However, its mechanism of action remains elusive. In the present study, we investigated the effect of Deltonin on a panel of cancer cell lines and analyzed its mechanism in C26
Introduction
Deltonin, an active component extracted from
Dioscorea zingiberensis C.H. WRIGHT, was widely utilized in traditional Chinese medicines. It has been shown to have anti-cancer functions such as colon cancer, breast cancer, and head and neck squamous carcinoma.
Deltonin is a naturally occurring spirostanol glycoside from Dioscorea zingiberensis C.H. Wright, which is used in traditional Chinese medicine. It exerts strong cytotoxic effect on C26 cells, inhibits C26 derived-tumor growth, and prolongs the survival of tumor-bearing mice after its oral
A slight detergent-like effect of steroid glycoside deltonine from Dioscorea deltoidea on the bacterial membranes of Micrococcus lysodeikticus was detected which resulted in the breaking of the osmotic barrier of protoplasts and in the loss from the membranes of small fragments containing the
Deltonin or diosgenin-3-0-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1----2)-[beta-D- glucopyranosyl-(1----4)-]-beta-D-glucopyranoside, m. p. 282 degrees, [alpha] 20(546): -96.4 degrees (c 1, pyridine) and a new oligospirostanoside beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1----3'' Glcp)-deltonin, m. p. 242-243 degrees, [alpha]20(546):
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents of Dioscorea zingiberensis.
METHODS
Manifold chromatography methods were used to separate the chemical constituents, and the chemical stuctures were determined by spectral analyses.
RESULTS
6 compounds were isolated from Dioscorea zingiberensis and
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the chemical constituents of Dioscorea zingiberensis C. H. Wright.
METHODS
The compounds were isolated by various chromatographic techniques, and the structures of the new steroidal saponins were elucidated by extensive 1D- and 2D-NMR, MS, and IR spectral
Five new steroidal saponins (1-5) were isolated from the fermentation broth of total furostanol glycosides from tubers of Dioscorea zingiberensis C.H. Wright incubated with a fungal, Absidia coerulea AS 3.3389, along with known saponins, zingiberensis new saponin (6), deltonin (7), prosapogenin A of
Dioscin derivatives from the Dioscorea villosa roots were isolated and purified by centrifugal partition chromatography coupled with evaporative light scattering detection. The two-phase solvent system composed of chloroform-methanol-isopropanol-water (7:6:1:4, v/v/v/v) was used to obtain
BACKGROUND
Steroidal saponins in Dioscorea species are chemically characterised as spirostanol and furostanol saponins, and have been used as standard marker compounds due to their chemotaxonomical significance and their important biological activities.
OBJECTIVE
To design a simple, rapid and
A β-glucosidase effectively releasing diosgenin from spirostanosides of Dioscorea zingiberensis C. H. Wright (DZW), named AfG, was purified from a strain of Aspergillus fumigates. The molecular weight of AfG was 113 kDa. Analysis of protein fragments by ESI-Q-TOF indicated that AfG was a
Dioscorea villosa, commonly known as "Wild Yam" and native to North America, is well documented for its pharmacological properties due to the presence of steroidal glycosides. However, the hepatoprotective potential of these compounds has not been studied so far. The present investigation was aimed
