Adjuvant and haemolytic activities of 47 saponins purified from medicinal food plants were examined. The compounds showed various levels both adjuvant activities. Soyasaponins lablabosides strong activity but little activity. Jujubosides Escins weaker than the adjuvant-control, Comparison functional groups each saponin revealed that acyl residue in saponin, aldehyde group at carbon 4 aglycone, branched sugar chains attached to not essential for Furthermore, with an or oxide-ring moiety...

The methanolic extracts of several natural medicines and medicinal foodstuffs were found to show an inhibitory effect on rat lens aldose reductase. In most cases, flavonoids isolated as the active constituents by bioassay-guided separation, among them, quercitrin (IC(50)=0.15 microM), guaijaverin (0.18 desmanthin-1 (0.082 microM) exhibited potent activity. Desmanthin-1 showed activity, which was equivalent that a commercial synthetic reductase inhibitor, epalrestat (0.072 microM). order...
