Momordica charantia is used to treat various diseases, including inflammatory conditions. Previous reports indicated that the extract of this plant inhibits activation of nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) but activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR). Additionally,
Three new triterpene glycosides ursan-3β,19α,22β-triol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl (2'→1″)-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), ursan-3α,11β-diol-3-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(6'→1″)-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(6″→1‴)-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(6‴→1‴')-α-D-glucopyranoside (2) and
Triterpene glycosides isolated from holothurians are natural products known to possess cytotoxic properties against cancer cells. However, their anticancer prophylactic activity has not been studied sufficiently. The anticancer prophylactic; cytotoxic, and pro-apoptotic properties of 18 triterpene
In the course of our research on the oligoglycosidic constituents of Turkish Astragalus species, we have isolated a number of cycloartane-type triterpene glycosides. The current study examines the immunostimulatory effects of nineteen of these cycloartane-type compounds using a transcription-based
Saponins, naturally occurring glycosides and triterpene glycosides in plants, are considered useful in the prophylaxis and treatment of several disorders, including malignancy. The effect of these substances is partly attributable to induction of both apoptosis and necrosis. Saponin has previously
Holothurian triterpene glycosides (cucumariosides) are known to possess multiple biological activities. Here we show that cucumariosides from the Far Eastern edible holothurian (sea cucumber), Cucumaria japonica, and their semisynthetic derivatives possess potent immunomodulatory properties.
The triterpene glycoside glycyrrhizin is the main active compound in liquorice. It is used as a herbal medicine owing to its anticancer, antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties. Its mode of action, however, remains widely unknown. In the present study, we aimed to elucidate the molecular
Glycyrrhizin, a triterpene glycoside isolated from licorice root, is known to have anti-inflammatory activities. However, the effect of glycyrrhizin on mastitis has not been reported. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect and mechanism of action of glycyrrhizin on
Glycyrrhizin is a triterpene glycoside, a major active constituent of licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) root and numerous pharmacological effects like anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-tumour and hepatoprotective activities has been attributed to it. In this study we evaluated the anti-inflammatory
Actein (ACT), isolated from the rthizomes of Cimicifuga foetida, is a triterpene glycoside, showing inhibitory role in breast cancer cells. However, the effects of ACT treatment on gastric cancer have little been known. Thus, the study is conducted to explore the in vitro and in vivo role of ACT in
Glycyrrhizic acid (GA) is a triterpene glycoside found in the roots of licorice plants (Glycyrrhiza glabra). GA is the most important active ingredient in the licorice root, and possesses a wide range of pharmacological and biological activities. GA coupled with glycyrrhetinic acid and
We examined the inhibitory effects of novel triterpene glycoside compounds [ziyu-glycoside II (ZY-II) and its methyl ester (ZYM-201)], which originated from the roots of sanguisorba officinalis L. (Rosaceae), on tissue factor (TF) activity and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha production. In in
Sea cucumber, Holothuria scabra, is an echinoderm marine animal that has long been used as a traditional therapeutic in various diseases due to its chemical composition and protein enrichment. Many researchers have extensively studied the efficacy of sea cucumber extracts for many health benefits in
