RESUMEN
The phytochemical study of Wisteria sinensis (Sims) DC. (Fabaceae), commonly known as the Chinese Wisteria, led to the isolation of seven oleanane-type glycosides from an aqueous-ethanolic extract of the roots. Among the seven isolated saponins, two have never been reported before: 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1â2)-ß-D-glucopyranosyl-(1â2)-ß-D-glucuronopyranosyl-22-O-acetylolean-12-ene-3ß,16ß,22ß,30-tetrol, and 3-O-ß-D-xylopyranosyl-(1â2)-ß-D-glucuronopyranosylwistariasapogenol A. Based on the close structures between the saponins from W. sinensis, and the glycyrrhizin from licorice, the stimulation of the sweet taste receptor TAS1R2/TAS1R3 by these glycosides was evaluated.

The use of pulses as ingredients for the production of food products rich in plant proteins is increasing. However, protein fractions prepared from pea or other pulses contain significant amounts of saponins, glycosylated triterpenes that can impart an undesirable bitter taste when used as an ingredient in foodstuffs. In this article, we describe the identification and characterization of a gene involved in saponin biosynthesis during pea seed development, by screening mutants obtained from two Pisum sativum TILLING (Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes) populations in two different genetic backgrounds. The mutations studied are located in a gene designated PsBAS1 (ß-amyrin synthase1), which is highly expressed in maturing pea seeds and which encodes a protein previously shown to correspond to an active ß-amyrin synthase. The first allele is a nonsense mutation, while the second mutation is located in a splice site and gives rise to a mis-spliced transcript encoding a truncated, nonfunctional protein. The homozygous mutant seeds accumulated virtually no saponin without affecting the seed nutritional or physiological quality. Interestingly, BAS1 appears to control saponin accumulation in all other tissues of the plant examined. These lines represent a first step in the development of pea varieties lacking bitterness off-flavors in their seeds. Our work also shows that TILLING populations in different genetic backgrounds represent valuable genetic resources for both crop improvement and functional genomics.

Four oleanane-type glycosides were isolated from a horticultural cultivar "Green Elf" of the endemic Pittosporum tenuifolium (Pittosporaceae) from New Zealand: three acylated barringtogenol C glycosides from the leaves, with two previously undescribed 3-O-ß-d-glucopyranosyl-(1â2)-[α-l-arabinopyranosyl-(1â3)]-ß-d-glucuronopyranosyl-21-O-angeloyl-28-O-acetylbarringtogenol C, 3-O-ß-d-galactopyranosyl-(1â2)-[α-l-arabinopyranosyl-(1â3)]-ß-d-glucuronopyranosyl-21-O-angeloyl-28-O-acetylbarringtogenol C, and the known 3-O-ß-d-glucopyranosyl-(1â2)-[α-l-arabinopyranosyl-(1â3)]-ß-d-glucuronopyranosyl-21-O-angeloyl-28-O-acetylbarringtogenol C (Eryngioside L). From the roots, the known 3-O-ß-d-glucopyranosyl-(1â2)-ß-d-galactopyranosyl-(1â2)-ß-d-glucuronopyranosyloleanolic acid (Sandrosaponin X) was identified. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including 1D- and 2D-NMR experiments and mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). According to their structural similarities with gymnemic acids, the inhibitory activities on the sweet taste TAS1R2/TAS1R3 receptor of an aqueous ethanolic extract of the leaves and roots, a crude saponin mixture, 3-O-ß-d-glucopyranosyl-(1â2)-[α-l-arabinopyranosyl-(1â3)]-ß-d-glucuronopyranosyl-21-O-angeloyl-28-O-acetylbarringtogenol C, and Eryngioside L were evaluated.

The oral bioavailability of drugs is often limited due to the presence of the P-glycoprotein, an efflux pump strongly expressed on the luminal side of the intestinal barrier. In an attempt to circumvent drug efflux, strategies consisting in the coadministration of drugs with surface-active agents have been found to be promising. In this context, the role of saponins on the intestinal permeability of a P-glycoprotein substrate was investigated. The P-glycoprotein inhibition activity of three triterpenoid saponins extracted from several plants of the Caryophyllaceae family was evaluated using an intestinal barrier model comprised of Caco-2 cell lines. The results showed a strong effect of two saponins on P-glycoprotein-mediated transport. At a concentration of 15 µM, the efflux ratio was close to 1 for both saponins, thus suggesting a total inhibition of the efflux pump in contrast to verapamil HCl, a conventional P-glycoprotein inhibitor. In addition, measurements of the transepithelial electrical resistance revealed that the integrity of the monolayers was not altered at such concentrations, thereby reducing potential adverse effects. The presence of acetylated sugars in the saponin structure could possibly facilitate interactions with the efflux pump by an ATP-dependent mechanism or by fluidization of cell membranes.

From the root barks of a Central African tree Millettia dubia De Wild. (Fabaceae), ten previously undescribed oleanane-type glycosides were isolated by various chromatographic protocols. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, mainly 2D NMR experiments and mass spectrometry, as mono- and bidesmosidic glycosides of mesembryanthemoidigenic acid, hederagenin and oleanolic acid. The stimulation of the sweet taste receptor TAS1R2/TAS1R3 by these glycosides was evaluated, and structure/activity relationships were proposed. Two of them showed an agonist effect on TAS1R2/TAS1R3.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Genus Torilis (Apiaceae) known as hedge parsley, encompasses 11-13 species distributed worldwide and shows potential pharmacological uses. Its phytochemical pattern is highly diversified including many phenolic and terpenic compounds. OBJECTIVE: This research-review provides new highlighting of structural organizations, structure-activity trends, taxonomical, tissue and geographical distribution of phytocompounds of Torilis genus from extensive statistical analyses of available data. METHODS: In extenso, exploration of documented literature and statistical data analyses were applied to update the phytochemical pool of the genus under several aspects including structural diversity, geographical distribution, biological compartmentations and pharmacological activities. RESULTS: Phytoconstituents were classified into homogeneous clusters that revealed to be associated with chemical constitutions (aglycone types, chemical groups) and distributions (through species, tissues, geographical). About bioactivities, terpenes were studied from a pharmacological point of view with relatively high frequencies for antifungal, antibacterial, cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory activities. Preliminary structure-activity relationships were highlighted implying opposite effects between hydroxylation and methylation in favor of different activities. Crude extracts and isolated compounds have shown several biological activities (antibacterial, anticancer, antiangiogenic, antiproliferative, etc.), thus providing authentic scientific proof for their diverse uses in folk medicines. CONCLUSION: The phytochemistry of the genus Torilis promises important perspectives in matters of pharmacological activities. These perspectives call for further investments in pharmacology because of (i) unbalance between phenolic and terpenic compounds according to the countries and (ii) more advanced current states of structural elucidations compared to biological evaluations.

Chytranthus macrobotrys and Radlkofera calodendron are two Sapindaceae characterized by a lack of phytochemical data. Both root barks from the two Sapindaceae species were processed by ethanol extraction followed by the isolation of their primary constituents by liquid chromatography. This process yielded four previously undescribed terpenoid glycosides together with eight known analogues. Extracts and isolated compounds from C. macrobotrys and R. calodendron were then screened for antimicrobial activity against fifteen phytopathogens. The biological screening also involved extracts and pure compounds from Blighia unijugata and Blighia welwitschii, two Sapindaceae previously studied by our group. Phytopathogens were chosen based on their economic impact on agriculture worldwide. The selection was composed primarily of fungal species including; Pyricularia oryzae, Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici, Zymoseptoria tritici, Fusarium oxysporum, Botrytis cinerea, Pythium spp., Trichoderma spp. and Rhizoctonia solani. Furthermore, pure terpenoid glycosides were tested for the first time against wood-inhabiting phytopathogens such as; Phaeomoniella chlamydospora, Phaeoacremonium minimum, Fomitiporia mediterranea, Eutype lata and Xylella fastidiosa. Raw extracts exhibited different levels of activity dependent on the organism. Some pure compounds, including 3-O-α-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1 â 4)-ß-D-xylopyranosyl-(1 â 3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 â 2)-α-L-arabinopyranosylhederagenin, 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 â 2)-α-L-arabinopyranosylhederagenin (α-hederin), 3-O-ß-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 â 3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 â 2)-α-L-arabinopyranosylhederagenin (macranthoside A) and 3-O-α-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1 â 3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 â 2)-α-L-arabinopyranosylhederagenin (clemontanoside C), exhibited significant growth inhibitions on Pyricularia oryzae, Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici, Fomitiporia mediterranea and Zymoseptoria tritici. Monodesmoside triterpene saponins, in particular, exhibited MIC (IC100) values as low as 25 µg/ml and IC50 values as low as 10 µg/ml against these phytopathogens. Structure-activity relationships, as well as plant-microbe interactions, were discussed.
