파 지하부로부터 분리된 2종의 diosgenin 배당체의 구조를 그의 분광학적 data와 화학적 실험 등의 방법으로 결정하였다. 그 결과, 이 두화합물의 구조는 diosgenin 3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1$\longrightarrow$2)-[$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1$\longrightarrow$4)]-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (1, dioscin)과 diosgenin 3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1$\longrightarrow$4)-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1$\longrightarrow$4)]- [$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1$\longrightarrow$2]-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (2, saponin P-d)로서 기지 물질이나, saponin P-d를 부분가수분해하여 얻은 prosapogenin 중 compound 4는 문헌 미기재의 물질이다.

It is well known that Dioscoreae Rhizoma tonifies and benefits the Spleen and Stomach, benefits the Lung and nourishes the Kidney. A major component isolated from this herb consist of dioscin, diosgenin, allantoin, starch, alanin, mucilage, choline, amylase, and glycoprotein. In this study, we aimed to measure the content of allantoin, one of major component, to determine the quality of Dioscoreae Rhizoma.

Pontential mutagenic and antimutagenic activities of four steroidal saponins from Smilax china rhizomes were investigated. These saponins did not revealed mutagneicity in the Ames and SOS umu test. For antimutagenic activity by SOS umu test, two spirostanol glycosides, dioscin and gracillin, inhibited the activity of ${\beta}-galactosidase$ induced by AF-2, but their proto-type furostanol glycosides did not show this activity.

In this study, a 40% ethanol extract of Chinese yam flour (Dioscoreae rhizoma), containing $177{\pm}58{\mu}g/mL$ of dioscin, was tested in order to evaluate its pharmacological effects on the gastrointestinal tracts of Sprague-Dawley rats. Via the ingestion of the Chinese yam extract, the secretion of gastric acid was suppressed in the rats, and gastrointestinal motility increased by as much as 10%. The fecal quantity of rats fed on the Chinese yam extract also increased, by more than 40% as compared with that of the controls. The Chinese yam extract was found not to affect the growth of normal intestinal bacteria. However, a great deal of lactose-fermenting bacteria was observed in the fecal samples of rats fed for 6 weeks on 2% Chinese yam extract. This finding would appear to suggest that Chinese yam extract not only induces an improvement in digestive capability, but also affects the conversion of some intestinal flora to helpful bacteria. Our serochemical analyses indicated that serum glucose, neutral lipid, and total cholesterol levels were reduced to some degree by long-term feeding on Chinese yam extract. This finding bolsters the notion that Chinese yam extract may prove helpful as a digestion-aiding agent for patients suffering from hyperglycemia or hyperlipidemia.

둥근마를 신선편이 형태로 제조 포장하여 소비를 촉진하고자 하였으며, 박피 및 dice형태로 자른 둥근마를 세척, 열수 및 2%염수에서 블랜칭 처리를 한 후 온도에 따라 예건처리를 하여 진공포장을 한 후 $2^{\circ}C$에 저장하면서 품질의 변화를 비교 검토하였다. 블랜칭 처리 후, HB마가 경도가 가장 낮았으며 포장 전 $40^{\circ}C$ 및 $50^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 예건처리한 것이 상온에서 처리한 것보다 경도가 높게 나타났고, 저장일수가 증가할수록 미미하게 경도가 증가하는 경향이었다. Adhesiveness는 SB50마가 가장 높게 나타났으며 저장기간 동안 다른 처리구에 비하여 높은 값을 보여주었다. 둥근마 dice의 초기색도는 L 값은 WRT마가 가장 높았고, a 값은 HBRT마가 가장 낮은 값을 보였으며, W40마가 가장 높은 값을 보였다. 저장일수가 증가할수록 L 값과 a 값은 SB50마가 감소의 폭이 가장 적었고 b 값은 W40마가 가장 변하지 않았다. 진공포장하여 저장한 dice마에서 대장균군은 검출되지 않았으며 저장 90일째까지 세균수가 가장 적은 처리구는 SB50마이었고, 그 다음이 HB50마이었으며 초기 세균수가 적으면서 진공포장이 유지된 WRT마에서도 저장성이 인정되었다. 둥근마 원료의 dioscin과 diosgenin의 함량은 건물중으로 17.65 mg% 및 6.35 mg%이었으며 전처리를 행한 결과 dioscin함량은 HB마가 15.35-16.10 mg%로 가장 높았지만 저장일수가 증가하는 동안 감소의 폭이 가장 적었던 처리구는 SB마이었다. Diosgenin함량은 저장 전 마중에 SB40과 SB50마가 6.22 및 6.21 mg%로 가장 높은 함량을 보였으나 저장일수가 증가할수록 감소하는 경향이었다. 원료마 중 allantoin 및 allantoic acid의 함량은 각각 및 3.66 mg/g 및 28.70 mg/g이었으며 전 처리한 시료 중에서 W40과 W50마에서 각각 5.21 mg/g, 및 4.66 mg/g으로 원료가 가진 함량보다 높게 나타났고 저장 30일까지는 약간 감소하는 경향이었으나 그 이후는 함량이 크게 변하지 않았다. Allantoic acid함량의 변화를 보면 저장 30일째까지는 약간 증가하는 처리구가 있었으나 대부분 저장기간일 길어질수록 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이상의 결과를 요약해보면 둥근마를 dice형태로 자른 후 2% 염수에 30초간 블랜칭하여 진공포장하면 $2^{\circ}C$에서 60-90일간은 유통기한 및 품질유지에 효과적이어서 신선편이 형태로 이용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

A new steroidal saponin, (23S,24S)-spirosta-5,25(27)-diene-1𝛽,3𝛽,23,24-tetrol 1-O-((2,3-diacetyl-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl)-(1→2)-[𝛽-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→3)]-α-L-arabinopyranoside)-24-O-𝛽-D-glucopyranoside (humilisoside) together with the known 𝛽-sitosterol 3-O-glucopyranoside, adenosine, dioscin, and methylprotodioscin were isolated from the leaves of Dracaena humilis. Their structures were elucidated by spectral techniques including mass spectrometry (ESIMS, HRESIMS, tandem MS-MS), 1D NMR (¹H, ¹³C NMR), 2D NMR (HSQC, ¹H-¹H COSY, HMBC, NOESY), chemical method as well as by comparison with spectroscopic data reported in the literature. The chemotaxonomic significance of the isolation of these compounds is discussed. This is the first report on the phytochemical investigation of D. humilis.

As part of the search for bioactive constituents of Korean medicinal plants, twelve steroids (1-12) were isolated from the rhizomes of Dioscorea nipponica. The isolated compounds were identified as diosgenin ($3{\beta}$, 25R)-spirost-5-en-3-ol (1), 25(R)-dracaenoside E (2), dioscin (3), gracillin (4), prosapogenin B (5), 25(R)-dracaenoside G (6), diosgenin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}3$)-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (7), ophipogonin C′ (8), 7-oxodioscin (9), protodioscin (10), hypoglaucin F (11), and protoneogracillin (12). Their structures were characterized by spectroscopic data and identified by comparing these data with those in the literatures. All the isolates (1-12) were evaluated for their neuroprotective effects through induction of nerve growth factor in C6 glioma cells and effects on nitric oxide (NO) production in murine microglia cell line BV-2. Compounds 7 and 12 were found to induce upregulation of NGF secretion without causing significant cell toxicity and compound 4 exhibited potent anti-neuroinflammatory activity.

Comparative studies have established that the North-Eastern (NE) region of India which is a part of the Eastern Himalayan region is affluent in both traditional knowledge based phytomedicine and biodiversity. About 1953 ethno-medicinal plants are detailed from the NE region of India out of which 1400 species are employed both as food and ethnopharmacological resources. Nearly 70% of species diversity has been reported from the two Indian biodiversity hotspots-The Western Ghats and the Eastern Himalayas and these hotspots are protected by tribal communities and their ancient traditional knowledge system. Paris polyphylla Smith belongs to the family Melanthiaceae and is a traditional medicinal herb which is known to cure some major ailments such as different types of Cancer, Alzheimer's disease, abnormal uterine bleeding, leishmaniasis etc. The major phytoconstituents are dioscin, polyphyllin D, and balanitin 7. Phylogeny of Paris was inferred from nuclear ITS and plastid psbA-trnH and trnL-trnF DNA sequence data. Results indicated that Paris is monophyletic in all analyses. Rhizoma Paridis, which is the dried rhizome of Paris polyphylla is mainly used in Traditional Chinese Medicine and its mode of action is known for only a few cancer cell lines. The current review determines to sketch an extensive picture of the potency, diversity, distribution and efficacy of Paris polyphylla from the Eastern Himalayan region and the future validation of its phytotherapeutical and molecular attributes by recognizing the Intellectual Property Rights of the Traditional Knowledge holders.
