Astragali Radix, known as Huangqi, is the most important tonic in the traditional oriental medicine. It reinforces 'qi' (vital energy), strengthens the superficial resistance and promotes the discharge of pus and the growth of new tissue. It has long been used as an anti-perspirant, anti-diuretic or a tonic. Eleven compounds were isolated from the hexane and EtOAc fractions from the roots of Astragalus membranaceus (Leguminosae) and their structures were identified as four triterpenoids [lupenone (1), friedelin (2), lupeol (3), soyasapogenol E (9)] and seven sterols [${\beta}-sitosterol$ (4), stigmastane-3,6-dione (5), $7{\alpha}-hydroxysitosterol$ (6), $5{\alpha},6{\beta}-dihydroxysitosterol$ (7), $7-oxo-{\beta}-sitosterol$ (8), ${\beta}-sitosterol$ glucoside 6'-O-palmitate (10), ${\beta}-sitosterol$ glucoside (11)]. The chemical structures of these compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic methods and comparison with literature values. Among these compounds, lupenone (1), friedelin (2), lupeol (3), stigmastane-3,6-dione (5), $7{\alpha}-hydroxysitosterol$ (6), $5{\alpha},6{\beta}-dihydroxysitosterol$ (7), $7-oxo-{\beta}-sitosterol$ (8), soyasapogenol E (9), and ${\beta}-sitosterol$ glucoside 6'-O-palmitate (10) were isolated from this plant for the first time.

Twelve compounds were isolated from the 70% ethanol extract of Lonicera Caulis (Caprifoliaceae) and their structures were identified as six triterpenoids [(24S)-cycloart-25-en-$3{\beta}$,24-diol (1), pomolic acid (7), ursolic acid (8), euscaphic acid (9), hederagenin (10), and 23-hydroxytormentic acid (12)] and six sterols [obtusifoliol (2), gramisterol (3), citrostadienol (4), ${\beta}$-sitosterol (5), ergosterol peroxide (6) and ${\beta}$-sitosterol glucoside (11)]. The chemical structures of these compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic methods and comparison with literature values. All the compounds were isolated from this plant parts for the first time.

Twelve compounds were isolated from the MeOH extract of the leaf and stem of the Korean endemic plant Weigela subsessilis L. H. Bailey. Their chemical structures were elucidated on the basis of physicochemical and spectroscopic data and by comparison with those of published literatures. These compounds were identified as three sterols, ${\beta}$-sitosterol acetate (2), ${\beta}$-sitosterol (3), daucosterol (11), eight triterpenoids, squalene (1), ursolic acid (4), ilekudinol A (5), corosolic acid (6), ilekudinol B (7), esculentic acid (8), pomolic acid (9), asiatic acid (10), and one iridoid glycoside, alboside I (12). This is the first report pertaining to the isolation of these compounds from Weigela subsessilis L. H. Bailey. In addition, three compounds 7, 9, and 12 were found to display a strong inhibitory effect on the production of IL-8 in the HT29 cells stimulated by TNF-${\alpha}$.

A novel chlorinated diterpene quinone methide; chlorosmaridione (7-chloro-11-hydroxy-abeita-7,9(11),13-triene-6,12-diode) was isolated from petroleum ether extract of the stems of Rosemarinus officinalis L. growing in Egypt. In addition, ${\beta}-sitosterol$, stigmasterol, lupeol acetate, ${\alpha}-amyrin,\;{\beta}-amyrin$, lupeol, acetyloleanolic acid, acetylursolic acid taxodione, horminone, and cryptotanshinone were also identified. Chemical structures of the isolated compounds have been elucidated on the bases of physical, chemical, and spectral data including IR, UV, MS, 1D-and 2D-NMR spectra.

이팝나무(Chionanthus retusus Lindl. & Paxton) 꽃은 실온에서 80% MeOH 수용액으로 추출하고 이 추출물을 EtOAC 분획, n-BuOH 분획, $H_2O$ 분획으로 나누었다. EtOAc 분획에 대하여 silica gel 및 ODS column chromatography를 반복 실시하여 4종의 화합물을 분리 및 정제하였다. nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared, 및 Electronic ionization mass spectrometer 등을 해석하여, ursolic acid (1), corosolic acid (2), ${\beta}$-sitosterol (3), 그리고 daucosterol (4)로 구조동정 하였다. 분리한 4종의 화합물은 이팝나무 꽃으로부터 이번 실험에서 처음 분리 되었다.

Two popular ethnomedicines of the Onge, a Negrito tribe of Andaman Islands, were evaluated for analgesic and antiinflammatory activity. The methanol extract as well as the different fractions of methanol extract of both Alstonia macrophylla and Mallotus peltatus leaves were studied using Swiss albino mice and Wistar albino rats. Acetic acid induced writhing, Tail flick and Tail immersion; Carrageenin- and Dextran-induced paw oedema tests were used. Dose-dependent analgesic and antiinflammatory activity were demonstrated for both methanol leaf extracts as well as fractions. Results were highly comparable with that of the standard drug pethidine.
