Harms JOURNAL=Frontiers in Chemistry VOLUME=Volume 10 - 2022 YEAR=2022 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/chemistry/articles/10.3389/fchem.2022.825763 DOI=10.3389/fchem.2022.825763 ISSN=2296-2646 ABSTRACT=Five previously undescribed oleanane-type triterpenoid saponins (1-5), together with twenty-four known saponins (6-29) were isolated from the fruit of Acanthopanax senticosus. The structures of all compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D, 2D NMR, and HR-ESI-MS, in combination with chemical methods (acid hydrolysis). The neuroinflammation model was established by LPS-induced BV2 microglia, and the neuroprotective effects of all compounds (1-29) were evaluated.
