Saponins derived from Ilex pubescens and method of purifying the same
It introduces a novel triterpene saponin fraction (named PSF) with anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities. Two hitherto unreported novel triterpene saponins were isolated in substantially pure form from the root of Ilex pubescens. The chemical structures and some properties of the triterpene saponin fraction have been elucidated to possess anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. These two novel triterpene saponins and the triterpene saponin fraction may be used as pharmaceutical compositions in humans and mammals in need of such treatment.
Suitable for oral administration with better efficacy, Pure herbal extracts with minimal side effect
Treat inflammation and pain in a mammalation and pain
It introduces a novel triterpene saponin fraction (named PSF) with anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities, and a pharmaceutical composition containing this fraction, and provides a method of preparing PSF from a plant material by extraction and purification. The plant material can be, for example, the dried root of Ilex pubescens.

Title: Saponins derived from Ilex pubescens and method of purifying the same
Usefulness: Saponins derived from Ilex pubescens and method of purifying the same
Summary: (II) is useful to treat inflammation and pain in a mammal. The anti-inflammatory effect of (II) (pubescenoside C and D) was tested in carrageenan induced paw edema in rats. The results showed that (II) reduced the swelling to 52.02± 13.83(%) in 4 hours.
Novelty: Composition, useful to treat inflammation and pain in mammal, comprises mixture of triterpene saponins comprising e.g. ilexsaponin, pubescenoside, ilexsaponin and chikusctsusaponin
