Hepatoprotective Effect of Steroidal Glycosides From Dioscorea villosa on Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Hepatotoxicity in HepG2 Cells
2018
Dioscorea villosa, commonly known as “Wild Yam” and native to North America, is well documented for its pharmacological properties due to the presence of steroidal glycosides. However, the hepatoprotective potential of these compounds has not been studied so far. The present investigation was aimed to study the hepatoprotective effect of the steroidal glycosides from D. villosa against H2O2, a known hepatotoxin, in human liver cell line (HepG2). Cytotoxicity assessment was carried out in cells exposed to various concentrations (10–50 μM) of compounds for 24 h using MTT assay and morphological changes. All tested compounds were known and among them, spirostans (zingiberensis saponin I, diosc…
Steroidal glycosides from the Vietnamese cultivar Cordyline fruticosa “Fairchild red”
2021
Abstract A phytochemical study of Cordyline fruticosa “Fairchild red” (Asparagaceae) from Vietnam, led to the isolation of fourteen steroidal glycosides, including twelve previously undescribed along with two known ones. Ten compounds were obtained by successive solid/liquid chromatographic methods from an aqueous-ethanolic extract of the roots, and four from the aerial parts. Their structures were elucidated mainly by spectroscopic analysis 2D NMR and mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS), as spirostanol glycosides, 5α-spirost-25(27)-ene-1β,3β,4α-triol 1-O-β-D-fucopyranoside, 5α-spirost-(25)27-ene-1β,3β,4α-triol 1-O-β-D-xylopyranoside, 5α-spirost-(25)27-ene-1β,3β,4α-triol 1-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 →…
Steroidal saponins from the fruits of Solanum torvum
2013
Abstract Seven steroidal glycosides have been isolated from the fruits of Solanum torvum Swartz. Their structures were established by 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques ( 1 H, 1 H-COSY, TOCSY, NOESY, HSQC, and HMBC) and mass spectrometry as (25 S )-26-(β- d -glucopyranosyloxy)-3-oxo-5α-furost-20(22)-en-6α-yl- O -β- d -xylopyranoside ( 1 ), (25 S )-26-(β- d -glucopyranosyloxy)-3-oxo-22α-methoxy-5α-furostan-6α-yl -O -β- d -xylopyranoside ( 2 ), (25 S )-26-(β- d -glucopyranosyloxy)-3β-hydroxy-22α-methoxy-5α-furostan-6α-yl- O -α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-β- d -glucopyranoside ( 3 ), (25 S )-3β-hydroxy-5α-spirostan-6α-yl- O -β- d -xylopyranoside ( 4 ), (25 S )-3-oxo-5α-spirostan-6α-yl- O -β- d -x…
Structure and cytotoxicity of steroidal glycosides from Allium schoenoprasum
2013
Abstract A phytochemical analysis of the whole plant of Allium schoenoprasum , has led to the isolation of four spirostane-type glycosides ( 1 – 4 ), and four known steroidal saponins. Their structures were elucidated mainly by 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis and mass spectrometry as (20 S ,25 S )-spirost-5-en-3β,12β,21-triol 3- O -α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β- d -glucopyranoside ( 1 ), (20 S ,25 S )-spirost-5-en-3β,11α,21-triol 3- O -α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β- d -glucopyranoside ( 2 ), laxogenin 3- O -α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 4)]-β- d -glucopyranoside ( 3 ), and (25 R )-5α-spirostan-3β,11α-diol 3- O -β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[β- d -glucopyranosyl-…
Cytotoxic steroidal glycosides from Allium flavum.
2014
Abstract Three new spirostane-type glycosides ( 1 – 3 ) were isolated from the whole plant of Allium flavum . Their structures were elucidated mainly by 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis and mass spectrometry as (20 S ,25 R )-2α-hydroxyspirost-5-en-3β-yl O -β- d -xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[β- d -galactopyranosyl-(1→2)]-β- d -galactopyranosyl-(1→4)-β- d -galactopyranoside ( 1 ), (20 S ,25 R )-2α-hydroxyspirost-5-en-3β-yl O -β- d -xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1→2)]-β- d -galactopyranosyl-(1→4)-β- d -galactopyranoside ( 2 ), and (20 S ,25 R )-spirost-5-en-3β-yl O -α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-[β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1→2)]-β- d -glucopyranoside ( 3 ).

2015
Three steroidal glycosides were isolated from the bark of Dracaena fragrans (L.) Ker Gawl. « Yellow Coast », and a fourth from the roots and the leaves. Their structures were characterized on the basis of extensive 1D and 2D NMR experiments and mass spectrometry, and by comparison with NMR data of the literature. These saponins have the spirostane-type skeleton and are reported in this species for the first time.
