In this study, apple pectin (AP) and tomato pectin (TP) were demonstrated to be a high-ester (74.8%) polysaccharide with the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of ~ 243 kDa and a low-ester (45.9%) polysaccharide with the Mw of ~ 19 kDa, respectively. The semi-rigid chain conformations of pectic polysaccharides in NaNO3 aqueous solution were deduced according to the Smidsr?d “B values” of AP (0.025) and TP (0.029), while AP and TP exhibited higher stiffness in water due to the electric repulsion of carboxyl groups, which was visually observed by AFM images. Under steady shear, the shear-thickening behaviors of AP and TP in NaNO3 aqueous solutions were observed in the shear rate range of ?1, which were attributed to the disruption of the ordered arrangement induced by semi-rigid pectin chains into randomly entangled structure by weak shear force. AP exhibited stronger shear-thickening behavior due to the formation of more entanglements resulted from the higher Mw and longer side chains highly branched at rhamngalacturonan region. This study provides the scientific basis for the construction of the relationship of steady-shear property with chain conformation and molecular weight of pectin.

The novel natural low-molecular-mass polysaccharide (SLWPP-3) from pumpkin (Cucurbia moschata) was separated from the waste supernatant after macromolecular polysaccharide production and purified using a DEAE cellulose-52 column and gel-filtration chromatography. Chemical and instrumental studies revealed that SLWPP-3 with a molecular mass of 3.5 kDa was composed of rhamnose, glucose, arabinose, galactose and uronic acid with a weight ratio of 1: 1: 4: 6: 15, and primarily contained →3,6)-β-D-Galp-(1→, →4)-α-GalpA-(1→(OMe), →4)-α-GalpA-(1→, →2,4)-α-D-Rhap-(1→, →3)-β-D-Galp-(1→, →4)-α-D-Glcp, and →4)-β-D-Galp residues in the backbone. The branch chain passes were connected to the main chain through the O-4 atom of glucose and O-3 atom of arabinose. Physiologically, the ability of SLWPP-3 to inhibit carbohydrate-digesting enzymes and DPPH and ABTS radicals, as well as protect pancreatic β cells from oxidative damage by decreasing MDA levels and increasing SOD activities, was confirmed. The findings elucidated the structural types of pumpkin polysaccharides and revealed a potential adjuvant natural product with hypoglycemic effects.

A new cholestane-type steroidal glycoside, solamyriaside A (1), was isolated from the fruits of Solanum myriacanthum Dunal (Solanaceae), along with two known steroidal glycosides, namely, solaviaside A (2) and aculeatiside A (3), and three known steroidal alkaloid glycosides, namely, solamargine (4), khasianine (5) and solasonine (6), which were isolated for the first time from this plant. Based on spectroscopic data as well as chemical evidence, 1 was determined to be 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)]-β-D-glucopyranosyl-22R,25R-cholest-5-ene-3β,16α,22,26-tetraol 26-O-β-D-glucopyranoside. The cytotoxic activity of 1–6 against HL-60 human promyelocytic leukaemia cells was examined. Compounds 4–6 showed cytotoxic activity. Among them, 4 exhibited the strongest activity with an IC50 value of 4.64 ± 0.17 μM, similar to the activity of cisplatin, a positive control.

Two new iridoid glycosides, genipin 1,10-di-O-α-L-rhamnoside (1) and genipin 1,10-di-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (2), along with thirteen known compounds (3–15) were isolated from Gardeniae Fructus. Their structures were elucidated by physical data analyses such as NMR, UV, IR, HR-ESI-MS, as well as chemical hydrolysis. All compounds were tested for their tyrosinase inhibitory and antioxidant activities. At a concentration of 25 μM, compound 13 showed obvious mushroom tyrosinase inhibition activity with % inhibition value of 36.52 ± 1.98%, with kojic acid used as the positive control (46.09 ± 1.29%). At a concentration of 1 mM, compounds 8 and 9 exhibited considerable DPPH radical scavenging activities, with radical scavenging rates of 48.54 ± 0.47%, 58.59 ± 0.39%, respectively, with L-ascorbic acid used as the positive control (59.02 ± 0.77%).

Our continuing search for marine bioactive secondary metabolites led to the screening of crude extracts of sea cucumbers by the model of Pyricularia oryzae. A new sulfated triterpene glycoside, coloquadranoside A (1), together with four known triterpene glycosides, philinopside A, B, E and pentactaside B (2–5) were isolated from the sea cucumber Colochirus quadrangularis, and their structures were elucidated using extensive spectroscope analysis (ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR) and chemical methods. Coloquadranoside A possesses a 16-acetyloxy group in the holostane-type triterpene aglycone with a 7(8)–double bond, a double bond (25,26) at its side chain, and two β-D-xylose in the carbohydrate chain. Coloquadranoside A exhibits in vitro some antifungus, considerable cytotoxicity (IC50 of 0.46–2.03 μM) against eight human tumor cell lines, in vivo antitumor, and immunomodulatory activity.

Scilla species are used as medicinal plants and contain lanosterol-type triterpene glyco-sides. The phytochemical investigation of the bulbs of Scilla peruviana led to the isolation of 17 com-pounds, including three new rearranged pentacyclic-lanosterol glycosides (1?3) and two new ho-moisoflavanone glycosides (12 and 13). The structures of the undescribed compounds were deter-mined by extensive spectroscopic analyses, including two-dimensional (2D) NMR. Among the triterpene glycosides, 2, 3, and 6 showed significant pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity in a concen-tration-dependent manner in vitro. The oral administration of scillascilloside D-2 (6) reduced serum triglyceride levels in a dose-dependent manner in soybean oil-loaded mice.

Three new triterpene glycosides, pacificusosides A–C (1–3), and three previously known triterpene glycosides, cucumariosides C1 (4), C2 (5), and A10 (6), were isolated from the alcoholic extract of the Far Eastern starfish Solaster pacificus. The structures of 1–3 were elucidated by extensive NMR and ESIMS techniques and chemical transformations. Compound 1 has a novel, unique structure, containing an aldehyde group of side chains in its triterpene aglycon. This structural fragment has not previously been found in the sea cucumber triterpene glycosides or starfish steroidal glycosides. Probably, pacificusoside A (1) is a product of the metabolism of the glycoside obtained through dietary means from a sea cucumber in the starfish. Another two new triterpene glycosides (2, 3) have closely related characteristics to sea cucumber glycosides. The cytotoxicity of compounds 1–6 was tested against human embryonic kidney HEK 293 cells, colorectal carcinoma HT-29 cells, melanoma RPMI-7951 cells, and breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells using MTS assay. Compounds 4–6 revealed the highest cytotoxic activity against the tested cell lines, while the other investigated compounds had moderate or slight cytotoxicity. The cytotoxic effects of 2–6 were reduced by cholesterol like the similar effects of the previously investigated individual triterpene glycosides. Compounds 3, 4, and 5 almost completely suppressed the colony formation of the HT-29, RPMI-7951, and MDA-MB-231 cells at a nontoxic concentration of 0.5 μM.
