Four triterpenoid saponins from dried roots of Gypsophila species.

Four new triterpenoid saponins were isolated from the roots of Gypsophila paniculata and G. arrostii. Their structures were elucidated using a combination of homo- and heteronuclear 2D NMR techniques, without having recourse to chemical degradation or modification. The saponins investigated are: 3-O-beta-D-galactopyranosyl-(1----2)-[beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1----3)]-bet a-D- glucuronopyranosyl quillaic acid 28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1----3)-[beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1----4)]-alph a- L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1----2)-beta-D-fucopyranoside; 3-O-beta-D-galactopyranosyl-(1----2)-[beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1----3)]-bet a- D-glucuronopyranosyl quillaic acid 28-O-beta-D-arabinopyranosyl-(1----4)-beta-D-arabinopyranosyl++ +-(1----3)-beta-D- xylopyranosyl-(1----4)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1----2)-beta-D-fucopyran oside; 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1----2)-beta-D-glucuronopyranosyl gypsogenin 28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1----3)-[beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1----4)]-alph a- L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1----2)-beta-D-fucopyranoside; 3-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1----3)-[beta-D-galactopyranosyl-(1----2)]-bet a- D-glucuronopyranosyl gypsogenin 28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1----3)-[beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1----4)-alpha -L- rhamnopyranosyl-(1----2)-beta-D-fucopyranoside.

Steroidal saponins from Allium chinense and their inhibitory activities on cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase and Na+/K+ ATPase.

The saponin fraction prepared from the methanolic extract of Allium chinense bulbs exhibited inhibitory activities on cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (cAMP PDE) (43.5%) and Na+/K+ ATPase (59.3%) at a sample concentration of 100 micrograms ml-1, respectively. Attempted purification of the active fraction through column chromatography on silica gel and ODS silica gel resulted in the isolation of six steroidal saponins, one of which appeared to be a new compound and one to be the first isolation from a natural source. (25R,S)-5 alpha-Spirostan-3 beta-ol tetrasaccharide showed inhibitory activities on both cAMP PDE and Na+/K+ ATPase, while (25R)-3 beta-hydroxy-5 alpha-spirostan-6-one di- and tri-saccharides inhibited only cAMP PDE.
