Four steroids and one flavonol glycoside were isolated from the ethanol extract of the whole plant of Aconitum pseudolaeve var. erectum. Their structures were identified as ${\beta}-sitost-4-en-3-one$, 22-dihydro-stigmast-4-en-3,6-dione, ${\beta}-sitosterol$, ${\beta}-sitosterol-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ and $kaempferol-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside(astragalin)$ on the basis of spectral data.

Four compounds were isolated from Salicornia herbacea by repeated column chromatography. Their structures were identified as ${\beta}$-sitosterol (1), stigmasterol (2), uracil (3), and isorhamnetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (4) by spectral analysis and comparison with the published data.

Three prolyl endopeptidase inhibitors were isolated and identified as luteolin, quercetin and ${\beta}$-sitosterol-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside with $IC_{50}$ of 0.17, 0.19 and 27.5 ppm, respectively. The inhibition of two flavonoids were non-competitive with substrate. Twenty authentic flavonoids were tested in order to investigate structure-activity relationship. No significant relationship was found in them, however, catechol moiety of B-ring and 7-OH group in flavonoid skeleton were seemed to be responsible for the stronger activity.

The seed of cowpea (Vigna sinensis K.) was extracted with 80% aqueous methanol (MeOH). And the concentrated extract was partitioned with ethyl acetate (EtOAc), n-butanol (n-BuOH) and $H_2O$, successively. The repeated silica gel and octadecyl silica gel (ODS) column chromatographic separations for the EtOAc and n-BuOH fractions led to isolation of four sterols. And the chemical structures of the compounds were determined as a mixture of stigmasterol and $\beta$-sitosterol with the ratio of 4 to 3 (1), 7-ketositosterol (2), and stigmasterol 3-O-$\beta$D-glucopyranoside (3) from the interpretation of spectroscopic data including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum metric, mass (MS) spectrum metric and infrared (IR) spectroscope. This study reports the first isolation of $\beta$-sitosterol, 7-ketositosterol, and stigmasterol 3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside from the seed of Vigna sinensis K. In addition, compound 2, 7-ketositosterol, is rarely occurred in natural source including plant.

In this study, three triterpenoids, two steroids and nine flavonoids were isolated from the leaves of Alnus firma Sieb. et Zucc. On the basis of spectroscopic evidences, the structures of these compounds were established as ${\beta}$-amyrin acetate, ${\beta}$-amyrin, ${\beta}$-sitosterol, alnustic acid methyl ester, ${\beta}$-sitosterol glucoside, pinocembrin, alnustinol, quercetin, quercetin-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-arabinofuranoside, quercetin-3-O-${\alpha}$-L -rhamnopyranoside, quercetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside, myricetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-galac-topyranoside, (+)-catechin and (-)-epicatechin.

Five steroids and two norsesquiterpene glycosides were isolated from the methanol extract of H. japonicus. Their structures were determined by means of physio-chemical and spectral data to be friedelin (1), stigmast-5-en-3-${\beta}$-ol (${\beta}$-sitosterol) (2), 7-keto-${\beta}$-sitosterol (3), 6${\beta}$-hydroxy-4-stigmasten-3-one (4), 7${\alpha}$-hydroxy-${\beta}$-sitosterol (5), 3-hydroxy-4,4-dimethyl-4-butyrolactone (6), daucosterol (7), (6S, 9S)-roseoside (8), and (9S)-drummondol-9-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (spinoside B) (9). The compounds 1, 3, 4, and 6 - 9 were first isolated from this plant source.

S.deltoides (Compositae) distributed widely in Korea. China. It is edible as a food additive. but there has been no study on chemical constituents. Therefore. we isolated nine compounds from S.deltoldes. On the basis of spectroscopic evidence. the structure of these compounds were characterized as lupeol( 1), $\alpha$-amyrin(2).$\beta$-amyrin (3), ursolic acid(4), nonacosanol(5), nonacosanoic acid(6). mixture of $\beta$-sitosterol. stigmasterol and campesterol (7), $\beta$-sitosteryl-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside(8), stigmasteryI-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside(9).

Chemical investigation of the plant Tristemma hirtum P. Beauv (Melastomataceae) resulted to the isolation of a new flavonol glycoside named quercetin-7-O-${\alpha}$-D-arabinofuranoside (1), together with nine known compounds including 3'-hexadecanoyl-2'-(9aZ)-tetradecanoyl-glycerol 1'-O-[${\beta}$-D-galactopyranosyl-(1'' ${\rightarrow}$ 6'')-${\alpha}$-D-galactopyranoside] (2), arjunolic acid (3), ${\beta}$-sitosterol-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (4), terminolic acid (5), quercetin (6), asiatic acid (7), maslinic acid (8), $1{\beta}$-O-galloylpedunculagin (9) and 6-hydroxyapigenin 7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (10) from the methanol extract using normal and reversed phase column chromatography. The structures of these compounds were determined by comprehensive interpretation of their spectral data mainly including 1D- 2D-NMR ($^1H-^1H$ COSY, HSQC, and HMBC) spectroscopic and ESI-TOF-MS mass spectrometric analysis.

We isolated and identified antioxidants from acidic and neutral ethyl acetate fractions of the peel of pear (Pyrus pyrifolia N. cv. Chuhwangbae). We isolated 4 compounds from the methanol extract, by using 3 different types of column chromatography (Sephadex LH-20, silica gel, and octadecylsilane) and preparative HPLC. We identified the isolated compounds as (S)-(+)-2-cis-abscisic acid O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl ester (compound 1), 1-[4-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl]phenyl ethanone (picroside, compound 2), ${\beta}$-sitosterol (compound 3), and ${\beta}$-sitosteryl 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (compound 4) by nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. We are the first to report the identification of compounds 1, 2, and 4 from pear.

Among them, $(24R)-6{\beta}$-hydroxy-24-ethyl-cholest-4-en-3-one (2) and 1-octen-3-ol 3-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranosyl ($1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (5) were first isolated from this plant. Among them, geniposidic acid (4) showed the most potent inhibitory effect on melanogenesis, with inhibition rate of 41%.
