Saponins from Swartzia langsdorffii: biological activities.
The presence of saponins and the molluscicidal activity of the roots, leaves, seeds and fruits of Swartzia langsdorffii Raddi (Leguminosae) against Biomphalaria glabrata adults and eggs were investigated. The roots, seeds and fruits were macerated in 95% ethanol. These extracts exerted a significant molluscicidal activity against B. glabrata, up to a dilution of 100 mg/l. Four mixtures (A2, B2,...
متن کاملDiscovery, semisynthesis, biological activities, and metabolism of ocotillol-type saponins
Ocotillol-type saponins are one kind of tetracyclic triterpenoids, sharing a tetrahydrofuran ring. Natural ocotillol-type saponins have been discovered in Panax quinquefolius L., Panax japonicus, Hana mina, and Vietnamese ginseng. In recent years, the semisynthesis of 20(S/R)-ocotillol-type saponins has been reported. The biological activities of ocotillol-type saponins include neuroprotective ...
متن کاملBiological Activities of 13, 28-epoxyoleanane Triterpene Saponins from Two Peruvian Myrsinaceae
Two known 13,28-epoxy-oleanane triterpene saponins (1) and (2), were isolated from the 95% ethanolic extract of the roots of Myrsine coriaceae and Myrsine andina. Their structures were deduced by combined spectral analysis and chemical evidences based on data reported in the literature. Compounds 1 and 2 were evaluated in vitro against different cellular models such as Mycobacterium tuberculosi...
متن کاملSteroidal Saponins from Vernonia amygdalina Del. and Their Biological Activity.
In the present study, four new steroidal saponins, namely vernoniamyoside A-D (1-4), together with the two known steroidal saponins vernoamyoside D (5) and vernonioside B₂ (6) were isolated from the ethanol extract of leaves of the African medicinal plant Vernonia amygdalina Del. (Asteraceae). Their structures were demonstrated by spectral analyses along with 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonanc...
متن کاملThe Isolation and Characterization of Triterpene Saponins from Silphium and the Chemosystematic and Biological Significance of Saponins in the Asteraceae
This paper presents an overview of Dr. Mabry’s accomplishments in his career as a natural product chemist, first at the University of Zürich as a post-doctorate and since 1962 as a faculty member at the University of Texas at Austin in the Department of Botany until the late 1990’s when the Biological Sciences programs at UT-Austin were completely reorganized; then until his retirement in 2006,...
