Two triterpenoid saponins were isolated from the methanol extract of Caltha minor leave(Ranunculaceae). The structure of these saponin were elucidated as hederagenin-3-O-$\alpha$-rhamnopyranosyl(1$\rightarrow$2)-$\alpha$-L-arabinopyrano side and 3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1$\rightarrow$2)-$\alpha$-L-arabinopyranosyl hederagenin 28-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1$\rightarrow$4)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl(1$\rightarrow$6)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl ester.

더덕은 예로부터 약용으로 사용 되어 왔으며, 더덕의 뿌리에는 약용으로 가치가 높은 여러 종류의 triterpenoid 사포닌이 포함되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 더덕의 모상근 생육과 methyl jasmonate (MeJA)처리에 의한 사포닌 합성의 효과를 연구하였다. 더덕 모상근에 MeJA를 처리한 결과 주사포닌인 lancemaside A, B, E의 축적은 MeJA 무처리 모상근 보다 약 15% 정도 감소하였다. 반면 마이너사포닌(foetidissimoside A와 aster saponin Hb)의 함량은 무처리 모상근 보다 약15% 정도로 증가하였다. 이 결과를 통해 MeJA처리가 triterpene 사포닌의 생산조절을 위해 사용될 수 있는 것으로 판단된다.

Red ginseng possibly has new ingredients converted during steaming and dry process from fresh ginseng. Kujeungkupo method which means 9 repetitive steamings and dryings process was used for the production of red ginseng from 6-year old ginseng roots. Saponin was extracted from each red ginseng produced at the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th during the steaming and drying treatment, and we analyzed saponin content with TLC. Minor saponins, such as ginsenoside-Rg3, -Rh2, compound K, and F2, increased as the process time of steaming and drying, but major saponins (ginsenoside-Rb1, -Rb2, -Rc, -Rd, -Re, -Rf, -Rg1) were decreased. Major saponins were yet observed almost at the 1st process, then degraded as the increasing time of steaming and drying process. Especially, ginsenoside-Re and -Rg were observed as considerable amount after the 1st treatment, but there were no trace of them after the 9th treatment. Ginsenoside-Rg1, -Rb2, and -Rb1 were also reduced remarkedly by 96.6%, 96%, and 92.3%, respectively. Minor saponins were increased significantly, especially for ginsenoside-Rg3 and ginsenoside-F2. These results suggest that Kujeungkupo method is the very useful method for the production of minor ginsenoside-Rg3 and -Rh2.

Three crude saponins having the same aglycone were isolated from the root of Caltha minor $N_{AKAI}$ which has been known to be of effect as emetics in the folk medicines of Korea. And they were confirmed to their saponoidal properties through the methods of hemolytic test and $L_{IEBERMANN}-B_{UCHARD}$ reaction.

Background: Heat treatments are applied to ginseng products in order to improve physiological activities through the conversion of ginsenosides, which are key bioactive components. During heat treatment, organic acids can affect ginsenoside conversion. Therefore, the influence of organic acids during heat treatment should be considered. Methods: Raw ginseng, crude saponin, and ginsenoside $Rb_1$ standard with different organic acids were treated at $130^{\circ}C$, and the chemical components, including ginsenosides and organic acids, were analyzed. Results: The organic acid content in raw ginseng was 5.55%. Organic acids were not detected in crude saponin that was not subjected to heat treatment, whereas organic acids were found in crude saponin subjected to heat treatment. Major ginsenosides ($Rb_1$, Re, and $Rg_1$) in ginseng and crude saponin were converted to minor ginsenosides at $130^{\circ}C$; the ginsenoside $Rb_1$ standard was very stable in the absence of organic acids and was converted into minor ginsenosides in the presence of organic acids at high temperatures. Conclusion: The major factor affecting ginsenoside conversion was organic acids in ginseng. Therefore, the organic acid content as well as ginsenoside content and processing conditions should be considered important factors affecting the quality of ginseng products.

To develop a clinically available saponin- or sapogenin complex from Oriental medicines, the EtOH extract (KPRG-A) was obtained by extracting from the four crude drugs, Kalopanacis Cortex, Platycodi Radix, Rubi Fructus and Glycyrrhizae Radis. The BuOH fraction (KPRG-B), a crude saponin complex, was prepared by fractionating KPRG-A, which were further completely hydrolyzed to afford the sapogenin complex (KPRG-D). In an attempt to find the antinoicpetive effects of the saponin complex and sapogenin complex, KPRG-C, and -D, were assayed by writhing-, hot plate-, and tail-flick tests using mice or rats. The three samples were also subjected to antiiflammatory tests using serotonin-induced and carrageenan-induced hind paw edema mice and rats, respectively. The three samples significantly reduced inflammations and pains of the experimental animal. The potency were found in the order of KPRG-D> KPRG-C> KPRG-B. The most active sample, KPRG-D, caused no death, no body increase or no anatomical pathlogic change even at 2,000 mg/kg dose. These results suggest that a sapogenin complex, KPRG-D, which was found to contain mainly hederagenin, platycodigenin, polygalacic acid, 23-hydroxytormentic acid, glycyrrhetic acid together with minor triterpene acids, could be a potential candidate for antiinflammatory therapeutics.

인삼엽차 제조를 위한 연구의 일환으로 인삼엽의 성숙시기인 7, 8, 9월 중에 인삼엽을 각각 채엽하여 사포닌 함량 및 조성을 비교, 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 인삼엽의 사포닌 함량은 7월엽이 17.17%, 8월엽이 16.67%, 9월엽 25.58%로서 채엽시기가 늦어질수록 감소하였으나 ginsenoside pattern은 유사하였다. 2. 인삼엽의 ginsenoide 함량 및 조성은 채엽시기와 관계없이 ginsenosides-Re, -Rd, -Rg1 등이 총사포닌 성분의 70% 이상을 차지하였고 그 다음으로 -Rb1, -Rb2, -Rc 순이었으며 protoparnaxadiol계 사포닌은 8월엽, protopanaxatriol계 사포닌은 9월엽에서 가장 높은 함량을 나타내었다. 3. 인삼엽의 채엽시기별 protopanaxadiol(PD)/protopanaxatriol(PT)계 사포닌의 함유비율은 7월엽의 1.13에서 9월엽은 0.85로 점차 낮아지는 경향을 나타내었다.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) has been a major problem in cancer chemotherapy. To overcome this problem, we prepared minor ginsenosides stereoselectively from ginseng saponins and searched for a ginseng component which is effective for inhibition of MDR. MDR inhibition activity was determined by measuring cytotoxicity to MDR cells using multidrug resistant human fibrocarcinoma KB V20C, which is resistant to 20 nM vincristine and expresses high level of mdr1 gene. Of several ginseng components, 20(S)-ginsenoside Rg_3$, a red ginseng saponin, was found to have the most potent inhibitory activity on MDR and it's concentration capable of inhibiting 50% growth was $82\muM$.

Panax ginseng C.A Meyer is frequently taken orally as a traditional herbal medicine in Asian countries. The major components of ginseng are ginsenoside, which are pharmaceutical activity. The six major ginsenosides, including Rb1, Rb2, Rc, Rd, Re and Rg1 account for 90% of total ginsenosides. Even though the minor ginsenosides, including Rg3, Rh2 and compound K has high pharmacetical activities, the price of minor ginsenosides is too high. Therefore we isolated the gypenoside V and made it converted to minor ginsenosides. In the plant Gynostemma pentaphyllum Makino, gypenosdie V was presented as dominant saponin (content about 2.4%), and was similar to protopanaxadol type ginsenosides such as ginsenoside Rb1. In this study, we confirmed that the coversion of gypenoside V to minor ginsenosides after using the various treatment such as heating, acid treatment, commercial edible enzyme, and lactobacillus. Consequently, we optimizied the transformation of gypenoside V to minor ginsenoside using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Time-of-flight Mass Spectrometry (LC/TOF/MS).

인삼주성분 사포닌 및 미량성분 사포닌의 단리법에 대하여 HPLC의 응용을 검토하여 이미 보고한 바 있다. 따라서 인삼미량성분인 $Ginsenoside-Rh_1$ 및 미지성분인 $Ginsenoside-Rh_2$의 단리법을 검토하였다. 저자등의 방법에 따라 홍삼의 70% 에탄올추출액(4 kg)에서 부탄올추출액을 얻어 에틸 아세테이트로 처리 (실온에서 3시간 및 $60^{\circ}C$에서 3 시간)하여 에틸 아세테이트 획분(29g)을 preparative HPLC인 prep LC/System-500을 사용하여 부분분획하여 각 획분을 analtical HPLC/ALC-201로 동정, ginsenoside-Rh group을 다시 에테르, 에틸 아세테이트 및 물로 정제한 후, semipreparative HPLC/ALC-201로 $ginsenoside-Rh_1$ 및 $-Rh_2$를 단리했다. 미지성분단리에 HPLC의 응용이 효과적임이 판명되었다.
