Abstract

A triterpenoid(melianone) and a limonoid(28-deacetyl sendanin) were isolated from the chloroform fraction of Meliae toosendan Fructus, the rippen fruits of Melia toosendan SIEB. et ZUCC.(Meliaceae) and were applied to serial experiments to clarify the liver protective activities. We found that the compounds promoted slightly the drug metabolizing enzyme activities and decreased serum transaminase activities which was elevated by carbon tetrachloride intoxication. And also they slightly increased the secretion of bile juice in rat.
