A mixture of acylglucosyl sterols together with ${\beta}-sitosterol$, ${\beta}-sitosterol\;3{\beta}-O-glucoside$ and fatty acids was isolated from the roots of Caragana chamlagu as their acetate forms and the structure elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic means. The major acylglucosyl sterol was ${\beta}-sitosteryl\;3-O-[6'-O-oleoyl]-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ while the minor components were $6'-O-palmitoyl-\;and\;6'-O-stearoyl-{\beta}-D-glucosyl$ sitosterol congeners. The isolation and structure elucidation of these acylglucosyl sterols are reported for the first time from the genus Caragana.

A experiment was performed to investigate the stigmasterol and campesterol in the Panax ginseng. Crude sterol fraction obtained from the ginseng was analysed by TLC and quantitative determination of ${\beta}$-sitosterol was performed with colorimetric method. The results were summarized as follwer, 1. It was observed with ethyl ether-petroleum ether extract of the ginseng that there was no evidence of showing the presence of both free capesterol and stigmasterol but that only ${\beta}$-sitosterol was presence in an significant amount. 2. Average amount of the ${\beta}$-sitosterol was 0.20-0.35mg per gram of the sample.

The roots of Korean Astragalus membranaceus Bunge. (Leguminosae), Astragali Radix, were extracted following general methods. During these extractions, first of all, 1,2-benzendicarboxylic acid diisononylester(compound A), ${\beta}-sitosterol(compound\;B)$, $3-0-{\beta}-D-galactopyranosyl-{\beta}-sitosterol(compound\;C)$ and $stigmast-4-en-6{\beta}-ol-3-one(compound\;D)$ were isolated. Three of these compounds were identified the first time isolation from the genus of Astragalus.

n-Alkanes (n-nonacosane and n-hentriacontane), phytosterols (campesterol and ${\beta}$-sitosterol) and phytosteryl glucosides (${\beta}$-sitosterol 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside and campesterol 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside) were isolated from the underground parts of Epimedium koreanum (Berberidaceae) and characterized by spectral data.

To evaluate the anti-hyperlipidemic effect of Brassica rapa L. and its major compound, $\beta$-sitosterol, the present study was undertaken, hypercholesterolemia was induced in rats with poloxamer-407, Triton WR-1339, 30% corn oil high cholesterol diet. The ethanol extract of Brassica rapa L. significantly decreased total cholesterol (TC), phospholipid, triglyceride at doses of 200 mg/kg, and $\beta$-sitosterol significantly exerted anti-hyperlipidemic activity at a dose of 15 mg/kg in rats with hyperlipidemia. Taken together, Brassica rapa L. and $\beta$-sitosterol can be useful agents for the prevention or treatment of hyperlipidemia.

MeOH extract of Cuscuta chinensis seeds was fractionated with n-hexane, EtOAc and BuOH successively, and antioxidant activities were tested for all fractions using DPPH free radical scavenging method. In the tested fractions, EtOAc fraction showed high antioxidant activity$(EC_{50},\;50\;{\mu}g)$ From the EtOAc fraction, five compounds have been isolated. On the basis of spectral data, these compounds were identified as ${\beta}-sitosterol$, methyl 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxycinnamate, ${\beta}-sitosterol-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$, caffeic acid, quercetin, kaempferol and calycopteretin. Among these compounds, ${\beta}-sitosterol$ and ${\beta}-sitosterol-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ showed no antioxidant activity. $EC_{50}$ values of methyl 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxycinnamate, caffeic acid, quercetin, kaempferol and calycopteretin were 0.6, 8, 19, 17 and $12\;{\mu}g$, respectively.

A mechanism of hair cell damage caused by noise and ototoxic agents is mediated through generation of free radicals and reactive oxygen species(ROS). It is known that most of animals have defense systems of ROS that protect against ROS, and the cochlea of animals also has ROS defense system, which appear efficient in detoxifying ROS generated under normal condition. This system includes several antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase(SOD), catalase(CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and glutathione reductase(GR). The radix of Pueraria thunbergiana(P. thunbergiana) is traditionally prescribed to attenuate the clinical manifestation of inner ear dysfunction and various clinical situations including fevers, gastrointestinal disorders, skin problems, migraine headaches, lowering cholesterol, and treating chronic alcoholism in Oriental Medicine. In the present study, to investigate the protection mechanism of ${\beta}-sitosterol$ from P. thunbergiana on cisplatin cytotoxicity toward HEI-OC1, we measured the effects of ${\beta}-sitosterol$ on activities of SOD, CAT, GPX, and GR in cisplatin treated cells. SOD, CAT, GPX, and GR activities were significantly increased in the presence of 0.001-0.1 ${\mu}g/ml$ of ${\beta}-sitosterol$ compared to the control group. These results indicate that ${\beta}-sitosterol$ protects cisplatin-induced HEI-OC1 cell damage through increasing the antioxidant enzyme system such as SOD, CAT, GPX, and GR.

황칠나무(Dendropanax mobifera Lev.)는 두릅나무과에 속하는 난대성 수종으로 대한민국 남쪽지방에 주로 분포하며 전통적인 민간요법 약재로 사용되어 왔으나 지금까지 피부에서의 효능이 잘 알려지지 않았다. 우리는 본 연구에서 황칠나무 잎의 열수추출물과 n-hexane 분획물에서 1-tetradecanol과 ${\beta}$-sitosterol 성분을 분리정제하여 다양한 피부개선효과와 탈모방지효과를 검증하였다. 1-tetradecanol의 타이로시나아제 활성 저해 효과는 열수추출물과 n-hexane분획물 보다 높은 저해 활성이 나타났다. 그리고 B16F10 세포를 이용한 멜라닌 양을 측정한 결과 1-tetradecanol은 세포독성 없이 농도 의존적으로 멜라닌 양이 감소됨을 확인하였다. 실험동물을 이용한 경표피수분손실량(TEWL)에서도 1-tetradecanol에서 수분 손실이 가장 낮게 나타났다. ${\beta}$-sitosterol의 탈모 방지에 대한 효과는 HR-1 hairless mice의 성장 주기별 특성을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 그 결과 ${\beta}$-sitosterol을 처리한 마우스의 탈모는 지연되었고 모발의 밀도도 가장 높게 나타났다. 그러므로 황칠 n-hexane분획물에서 분리한 1-tetradecanol과 ${\beta}$-sitosterol이 미백과 보습 용도의 화장품 기능성 원료 및 탈모 개선에 가능성이 있는 화장품소재로서 상업적 발전의 가능성을 보여주고 있다.

${\beta}-Sitosteryl-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ was isolated from the seeds of Plantago asiatica (Plantaginaceae). The assignments of $^{13}C$ NMR spectra of ${\beta}-sitosterol$ and ${\beta}-sitosteryl-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ were made by comparing with $^{13}C$ NMR spectra of cholesterol and $cholesteryl-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$. Our data indicate that the revision of previous $^{13}C$ NMR spectral assignment is needed.
