ABSTRACT
Paris polyphylla var. chinensis(PPC) is used as one of the origin plants of Paridis Rhizoma described in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2020 edition). Its resources shortage makes the planting scale gradually expand, and plenty of aerial parts are abandoned because of not being effectively used. On the basis of previous research, this study separated steroidal saponins to further clarify the chemical composition of the aerial parts of PPC. As a result, three pairs of 25R or 25S epimers of furostanol saponins were obtained by various column chromatography techniques. Their structures were identified as neosolanigroside Y6(1), solanigroside Y6(2), neoprotogracillin(3), protogracillin(4), neoprotodioscin(5) and protodioscin(6) by spectral data combining with chemical transformation. Compound 1 is a new compound, and compounds 2, 3 and 5 are isolated from Paris plants for the first time. Compounds 4 and 6 are isolated from this plant for the first time. Previously, only several spirostanol glycosides with 25S configuration were isolated from Paris plants. Guided by mass spectrometry, the present study isolated the furostanol saponins with 25S configuration from this genus for the first time, which further enriches the chemical information of Paris genus and provides a reference for the isolation of similar compounds.

Five new polyhydroxylated furostanol saponins were isolated from the roots and rhizomes of Tupistra chinensis, and their structures were determined as tupistrosides J-N (1-5), together with four known furostanol saponins (6-9), on the basis of physico-chemical properties and spectral analysis. Among them, compounds 3 and 5 showed cytotoxicity against human cancer cell lines SW620 with IC values of 72.5 ± 2.4 and 77.3 ± 2.5 μmol·L, respectively. Compound 4 showed cytotoxicity against human cancer cell line HepG2 with IC value of 88.6 ± 2.1 μmol·L.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the chemical components in the root of Asparagus cochinchinensis (Lour.) Merr. Methods: Chemical components of Asparagus cochinchinensis root were isolated by column chromatography on macroporous resin, Silgel, Sephadex LH-20, ODS, etc. and the structures of the components were identified by physiochemical and spectral analysis, such as MS, 1HNMR, and 13 CNMR. Results: The following 5 components were isolated and identified: diosgenin-3-O-p-β-glu- copyranoside(I), smilagenin(II), 26-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-furost-3β, 22, 26-triol-3-0-p-D-glucopyranosyl(1→2)-O-β-D-glu- copyranoside(JU) 26-0-β-D-glucopyranosyl-furost-5, 20-en-3β, 2α, 26-triol-3-O-[α-α-rhamnopyranosyl (1[2)]-[α-α-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)]-β-D- glucopyranoside(IV), and 26-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-furost-3β, 26-diol-22-methoxy-3-0-α-L-rhamnopyranosy (1-4)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (V). Conclusion: All the 5 compounds isolated from Asparagus cochinchinensis in this study is reported for the first time.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To determine AR-Ⅰ content in total furostanol saponins of Asparagus cochinchinensis.Methods: High performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) was used and the condition was: Diamonsil C_(18) column(5 mm?250 mm,5 ?m);mobile phase:(CH_(3)CN-H_(2)O(36∶64);) flow rate: 0.8 ml/min;injector volume:20 ?l;colum temperature: room temperature.Evaporative light scattering detector(ELSD) condition was: drift tube temperature: 40℃;and nebulizer gas pressure(N_(2)): 2.0?10~(5) Pa.Results: The linearity was good when AR-I was within the range of 0.094-0.940 0 g?L~(-1)(r=0.999 2).The test had higher sensitivity and good stability.The average recovery was 101.3%(n=6)and RSD was 2.36%.Conclusion: HPLC-ELSD is practical and reliable for the determination of the furostanol saponins of Asparagus cochinchinensis.
