RESUMEN
To investigate the chemical constituents of Saussurea deltoidea, 10 compounds were isolated from the title plant by various chromatography methods such as silica gel, RP-18 silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, HPLC, et al. Their structures were elucidated by spectral analysis. Five isoprenoids and Five phenylpropanoids were isolated and elucidated as (3R, 6R, 7E) -3-hydroxy-4, 7-megastigmadien-9-one (1), (3S, 5R, 6S, 7E) -5, 6-epoxy-3-hydroxy-7-megastigmen-9-one (2), 3-hydroxy-beta-damascone (3), S-(+) -dehydrovomifoliol (4), megastigman-5-ene-3beta, 9R-diol (5), coniferaldehyde (6), beta-hydroxypropiovanillone (7), 3-hydroxy-1-(4-hydroxy-3, 5-dimethoxyphenyl) -1-propanone (8), dihydrosyringenin (9), 4-[(1S) -3-hydroxy-1-methoxypropyl]-2, 6-dimenthoxyphenol (10). All the compounds were isolated from S. deltoidea for the first time.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the chemical constituents in fruit of Alpinia oxyphylla and their cytotoxicities on cancer cell lines.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Compounds were isolated and purified by various column chromatographic methods. Their structures were determined by physico-chemical properties and spectral analyses. Compound cytotoxicity was assessed by the sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Eight compounds were obtained from Me2CO-H2O (70%) extract of the fruit of A. oxyphylla and their structures were identified as: (9E)-humulene-2, 3; 6, 7-diepoxide (1), 3(12), 7(13), 9(E)-humulatriene-2, 6-diol (2), (-)-oplopanone (3), yakuchinone A (4), yakuchinone B (5), tectochrysin (6), isovanillin (7), (2E, 4E)-6-hydroxy-2, 6-dimethylhepta-2, 4-dienal (8), and the cytotoxicities of compounds 1, 3-5 on cancer cell lines, A549, HT-29 and SGC-7901, were also investigated.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Compounds 1-3, 7, 8 were isolated for the first time from this genus and compounds 1, 3-5 exhibited no cytotoxicity against three cancer cell lines at a concentration of 10 mg x L(-1).</p>
