“…The berries of S. chinensis have been found to contain compounds identified as belonging to the group of triterpenoids, such as: pre-schisanartanes—schisanartanins A and B, and 3,4-seco-21,26-olide-artane triterpenoid—wuweizilactone acid (Huang et al 2007; 2008; Xia et al 2015; Xue et al 2010). Another interesting, recently isolated, structure is a compound from the group of 18-norschiartanes known as bisnortriterpenoids, which do not have C-18 and C-28; it is a highly oxygenated nortriterpenoid with unusual skeletons—wuweizidilactone I (Xue et al 2010) (Fig.…”

Schisandra chinensis Turcz. (Baill.) is a plant species whose fruits have been well known in Far Eastern medicine for a long time. However, schisandra seems to be a plant still underestimated in contemporary therapy still in the countries of East Asia. The article presents latest available information on the chemical composition of this plant species. Special attention is given to dibenzo cyclooctadiene lignans. In addition, recent studies of the biological activity of dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans and schisandra fruit extracts are recapitulated. The paper gives a short resume of their beneficial effects in biological systems in vitro, in animals, and in humans, thus underlining their medicinal potential. The cosmetic properties are depicted, too. The analytical methods used for assaying schisandra lignans in the scientific studies and also in industry are also presented. Moreover, special attention is given to the information on the latest biotechnological studies of this plant species. The intention of this review is to contribute to a better understanding of the huge potential of the pharmacological relevance of S. chinensis.

“…5 An update by Kuang and co-workers reviewed 221 new triterpenoids isolated between February 2008 and July 2013. 7 However, some of their structural classications were not based on the skeletal types and are ambiguous, which gave rise to a confusing summary of the biogenetic pathways. In addition, the structure of kadpolysperin H (34) 8 and several stereogenic centers of schinortriterpenoids were mistaken by them.…”

Triterpenoids from the Schisandraceae family: an update

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Several significant advances in the field of phytochemistry were made between 2008 and 2014 because of the high level of interest in Schisandraceae triterpenoids. In addition to a dramatic increase in the number of newly identified triterpenoids, the first complete synthesis of a schinortriterpenoid was accomplished. There has also been substantial progress in investigations of biological activity and mechanism of action. In this update, we review more than 250 new triterpenoids and describe their structures, classifications, biogenetic pathways, syntheses, and bioactivities.
