From the fruits of Kochia scoparia (L.) Schrad, five triterpenoid glycosides were isolated for the first time from this plant. They were elucidated as momordin Ic, the 6′-methyl ester of momordin IIc, momordin He, 2′-O-β-D-glucopyranosylmomordin Ic, and 2′-O-β-D-glucopyranosylmomordin IIc on the basis of spectral and chemical methods. The last two saponins are new natural products.
Antidiabetic Principles of Natural Medicines. III. Structure-Related Inhibitory Activity and Action Mode of Oleanolic Acid Glycosides on Hypoglycemic Activity.
We examined the structure-related activity of oleanolic acid glycosides with respect to their inhibitory effect on the increase in serum glucose in oral glucose-loaded rats and their mechanism of action using oleanolic acid 3-O-glucuronide and momordin Ic. Both the 3-O-monodesmoside structure and 28-carboxyl group were confirmed to be essential for such activity, and the 3-O-glucuronide was more potent than 3-O-glucoside. On the other hand, the 28-ester glucoside moiety and 6'-methyl ester of the glucuronide moiety reduced such activity. Oleanolic acid 3-O-glucuronide and momordin Ic, both of which inhibited the increase in serum glucose in oral glucose-loaded rats, did not lower serum glucose in normal or intraperitoneal glucose-loaded rats, or alloxan-in-duced diabetic mice. These glycosides were found to suppress gastric emptying in rats, and also inhibit glucose uptake in the rat small intestine in vitro. These results indicate that oleanolic acid 3-O-glucuronide and momordin Ic, given orally, have neither insulin-like activity nor insulin releasing-activity. They exhibit their hydpoglycemic activity by suppressing the transfer of glucose from the stomach to the small intestine and by inhibiting glucose transport at the brush border of the small intestine.
我们利用齐墩果酸 3-O-葡萄糖醛酸苷和 Momordin Ic,研究了齐墩果酸苷在抑制口服葡萄糖负荷大鼠血清葡萄糖升高方面的结构相关活性及其作用机制。经证实,3-O-单去甲糖苷结构和 28-羧基都是这种活性的必要条件,而且 3-O-葡萄糖醛酸苷比 3-O-葡萄糖苷更有效。另一方面,28-酯葡萄糖苷分子和葡萄糖醛酸分子的 6'- 甲基酯会降低这种活性。齐墩果酸 3-O-葡萄糖醛酸和 Momordin Ic 都能抑制口服葡萄糖负荷大鼠血清葡萄糖的升高,但不能降低正常或腹腔葡萄糖负荷大鼠或阿脲诱导的糖尿病小鼠的血清葡萄糖。研究发现,这些苷可抑制大鼠的胃排空,还可抑制大鼠小肠在体外摄取葡萄糖。这些结果表明,口服齐墩果酸 3-O-葡萄糖醛酸苷和 Momordin Ic 既没有胰岛素样活性,也没有胰岛素释放活性。它们通过抑制葡萄糖从胃向小肠的转移和抑制葡萄糖在小肠刷状缘的转运来显示其降血糖活性。

Provided are use of a saponin compound of formula (I) or (II), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, prodrug or solvate thereof, in the manufacture of a medicament targeting PD-1. The medicament targeting PD-1 is one which treats a disease by inhibiting PD-1 from binding to a ligand thereof. The disease may be a tumor, an infection caused by a bacterium, a virus or a fungus, or an inflammatory disease.
The present invention relates to anti-fungal uses of plant-derived saponins. In particular, the invention deals with the anti-fungal uses of momordin Icand its glucopyranosyl derivatives for the treatment of fungal infections such as for example caused by the genus Candida, more particularly the species Candida albicans and Candida glabrata.
