Abstract
Using various chromatographic methods, five new steroidal saponins named taccavietnamosides A–E (1–5) and three known, (24S,25R)-spirost-5-en-3β,24-diol 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→3)]-β-D-glucopyranoside (6), (24S,25R)-spirost-5-en-3β,24-diol 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→3)]-β-D-glucopyranoside (7), and chantrieroside A (8) were isolated from the rhizomes of Tacca vietnamensis Thin et Hoat. Their chemical structures were elucidated by physical and chemical methods. All compounds were evaluated for the inhibitory activities of nitric oxide production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages and BV2 cells. As the results, compounds 3–5 showed moderate inhibition on NO production in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells and RAW 264.7 macrophages with the IC50values ranging from 37.0 to 60.7 μM.
