BACKGROUND
The rhizomes of Panax japonicus are used as a folk medicine for treatment of life-style related diseases such as arteriosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus as a substitute for ginseng roots in China and Japan. Obesity is closely associated
A HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of 11 triterpene saponins with four-type aglycones (protopanaxadiol, protopanaxatriol, ocotillol and oleanolic acid types) in Ginseng drugs was developed and validated. Using a gradient of acetonitrile and 10 mM K-phosphate buffer (pH 5.80) as the
Panajaponin, a new glycosphingolipid compound (1), together with eight known compounds, 28-glu-oleanolic acid ester (2), chikusetsusaponin IVa (3), chikusetsusaponin IV (4), ginsenoside Ro (5), ginsenoside Re (6), notoginsenoside R2 (7), ginsenoside Rg2 (8) and adenosine (9), was isolated from Panax
Fas-mediated apoptotic cell death of a human keratinocyte cell line, HaCaT cells, and of a murine keratinocyte cell line, Pam212 cells, was suppressed by pre-treatment with a methanol extract from the roots of Panax japonicus C.A. Meyer. Activity-guided fractionation led to the isolation of
A new assay based on ultrafiltration, liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry was developed for the rapid screening and identification of the ligands for α-glucosidase from the extract of Panax japonicus. Six saponins were identified as α-glucosidase inhibitors. Subsequently, the specific
A new dammarane-type triterpenoid saponin, chikusetsusaponin VII (1), and nineteen known triterpenoid saponins, ginsenoside Rb1 (2), ginsenoside Rb3 (3), ginsenoside Rc (4), ginsenoside Rd (5), ginsenoside Re (6), ginsenoside Rg1 (7), ginsenoside Rg2 (8), ginsenoside Rh1 (9), notoginsenoside R1
UNASSIGNED
Oleanolic acid glucuronosyltransferase (OAGT) genes synthesizing the direct precursor of oleanane-type ginsenosides were discovered. The four recombinant proteins of OAGT were able to transfer glucuronic acid at C-3 of oleanolic acid that yields oleanolic acid 3-O-β-glucuronide.
Oleanane-type saponins considered as the main medicinal ingredients in Panax japonicus are not found in Panax notoginseng. β-Amyrin synthase (βAS) was recognized as the first key enzyme in the biosynthetic branch of oleanane-type saponins. In this study, βAS gene from P. japonicus ( PjβAS) was
Panax pseudo-ginseng subsp. pseudo-ginseng has a carrot like root with a small rhizome. It was shown that the saponin composition of roots and rhizomes of this subspecies collected in Tibet and China was extremely poor. From the roots and rhizomes collected in Central Nepal, (specimen-PNct), only a
