Tupistra chinensis is widely distributed in southwestern China and its rhizome is a famous folk medicine for the treatment of carbuncles and pharyngitis. Its chemical identity of potent antiproliferative and anti-inflammatory constituents has been carried out in this study. Twenty-three
Phytochemical investigations of the rhizome of Tupistra chinensis led to the isolation of ten new furostanol saponins along with fourteen known spirostanols. Their chemical structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic and chemical methods, including IR, NMR, MS, and GC analyses. The
T-17, a bioactive spirostanol saponin extracted from Tupistra chinensis Baker, was previously reported with anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activities. However, the mechanism underlying of its anti-proliferation activity remains to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated the anti-gastric
