ruscogenin/悪性腫瘍

Pancreatic cancer is characterized by aggressive and highly metastatic phenotypes. This disease exhibits a poor patient prognosis and is considered a challenge due to the limited treatment options encountered in clinical practice. Previous studies have shown that ruscogenin, a saponin found in the

Ruscogenin (RUS), first isolated from Ruscus aculeatus, also a major steroidal sapogenin of traditional Chinese herb Radix Ophiopogon japonicus, has been found to exert significant anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic activities. Our previous studies suggested that ruscogenin remarkably inhibited

Ruscus aculeatus is a threatened medicinal plant whose main bioactive components, the ruscogenins, have long been used in the treatment of hemorrhoids and varicose veins, but recently demonstrated activity against some types of cancer. Plant cell biofactories could constitute an alternative to the

Transient cerebral ischemia initiates a complex series of inflammatory events, which has been associated with an increase in behavioral deficits and secondary brain damage. Ruscogenin is a major steroid sapogenin in the traditional Chinese herb Ophiopogon japonicus that have multiple bioactivities.

Phytochemical examination of the fresh tubers of Brodiaea californica resulted in the isolation of four new steroidal saponins. Their structures were determined, by extensive spectral analysis including two-dimensional (2D) NMR spectroscopy and acid-catalyzed hydrolysis, to be (25S)-spirost-5-ene-1

Phytochemical investigation of the underground parts of Liriope graminifolia (Linn.) Baker resulted in the isolation of two new steroidal saponins lirigramosides A (1) and B (2) along with four known compounds. The structures were determined by extensive spectral analysis, including two-dimensional

Phytochemical investigation of the tubers of Ophiopogon japonicus led to the isolation of five previously undescribed steroidal saponins, ophiojaponins A-E, together with twelve known ones. The structures of these isolated compounds were elucidated by detailed spectroscopic analyses and chemical

Kouyanqing Granule (KYQG) is a traditional Chinese herbal formula composed of Flos lonicerae (FL), Radix scrophulariae (RS), Radix ophiopogonis (RO), Radix asparagi (RA), and Radix et rhizoma glycyrrhizae (RG). In contrast with the typical method of separating and then biologicalily testing the

The present study was designed to investigate the chemical constituents and bioactivities of the roots of Liriope muscari (Decne.) L.H. Bailey. The compounds were isolated through various chromatography techniques, including silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, and semi-preparative HPLC. The structures were

The steroidal saponin DT-13 (25(R,S)-ruscogenin-1-O-[β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)][β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)]-β-d-fucopyranoside), one of the major active compounds of the herb Liriope muscari (Decne.), exhibits significant anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and cardioprotective effects. This study aimed

Steroidal saponin DT-13 (25 (R, S)-ruscogenin-1-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl - (1→2)] [β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→3)]-β-D-fucopyranoside) is the main active component of the tube of Liriope muscari (Decne.) Baily and has been studied as a candidate drug for cancer metastasis. The objective of this study was to
