Eight new spirostanol saponins, macaosides A-H (1-8), and 10 new furostanol saponins, macaosides I-R (9-18), together with six known spirostanol compounds (19-24) were isolated from Solanum macaonense. The structures of the new compounds were determined from their spectroscopic data, and the
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
Using various chromatographic methods, five new steroidal saponins named taccavietnamosides A-E (1-5) and three known, (24S,25R)-spirost-5-en-3β,24-diol 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→3)]-β-d-glucopyranoside (6), (24S,25R)-spirost-5-en-3β,24-diol
Two new pregnane glycosides, 2α, 3β-dihydroxy-5α-pregn-16-en-20-one-3-O-{α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)]-β-D-galactopyranoside} (1) and 2α,
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
Torvpregnanosides A and B, two pregnane glycosides, and torvoside Q, a 23-keto-spirostanol glycoside, along with twelve known steroidal saponins were isolated from aerial parts of Solanum torvum. Of the latter, four of the 23-hydroxy-spirostanol glycosides, and, a yamogenin glycoside, were in this
Background: Modulation of the arachidonic acid (AA) cascade via 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) represent the two major pathways for treatments of inflammation and pain. The design and development of inhibitors
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
The rhizome of Anemarrhena asphodeloides (AA, family Liliaceae), which contains furostanol and spirostanol saponins, is a typical herbal medicine that improves learning and memory in rats and inhibits inflammation. In a preliminary study, timosaponin AIII, one of AA main constituents, was
The general spread of Tribulus terrestris L. (South Africa, Australia, Europe, and India), the high content of active ingredients (in particular sterol saponins, as well as flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, phenol carboxylic acids, and alkaloids), and its frequent uses in folk medicine, and as
