The constituents from the needles of the pine tree, Pinus densiflora, were purified and investigated for antithrombotic activity. The needles were initially extracted three times with 70% ethanol, and the extract was sequentially fractionated with chloroform and n-butanol. The aqueous layer formed after n-butanol fractionation was subjected to purification by medium pressure and high pressure liquid chromatography. The two neolignans, 2, 3-dihydro-7-hydroxyl-3-hydroxymethyl-2-(4'-hydroxyl -3-methoxyphenyl)-5-benzofuranpropanol-3-O-${\alpha}$-rhamnopyranoside (a neolignan glycoside) and 2, 3-dihyro-3-hydroxymethyl-7-methoxy-2-(4'-hydroxyphenyl-3'-methoxy)-5-benxofuran propanol 4'-O-${\alpha}$-rhamnopyranoside (icariside $E_4$) were identified by $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR spectra. The effect of the purified compounds, the neolignan glycoside and icariside $E_4$ on thrombin inhibition were investigated by measuring thrombin clotting time in plasma. As a result, the clotting of the neolignan glycoside was delayed four times compared to that of icariside $E_4$. In addition, an analysis of the inhibition effect by changing the concentration showed that the clotting time was delayed in accordance with an increase in the concentration of the neolignan glycoside. Furthermore, we examined the interaction of thrombin and fibrinogen to clarify the action mechanism. As a result, the delay of clotting time in the response of thrombin and pure fibrinogen may indicate that neolignan glycosides inhibit the thrombin action in a direct manner, leading to the suppression of fibrin generation.

Ajuga multiflora Bunge is a perennial herb in the family of Labiatae. The iridoid glycoside was isolated from the ethylacetate fraction and the n-butanol fraction of the plant. The structure of the substance was identified as 8-O-acetylharpagide by UV, IR, NMR spectra and several chemical reactions.

Stability of the $\beta$-sitosterol glycoside from Schima wallichii sp. at various physical conditions were investigated, mutagenecity of the steroid saponin was determined by Ames test. When exposed in pH 3 to pH 8, the $\beta$-sitosterol glycoside was stable on antimicrobial activity against yeasts. The antimicrobial activity of the $\beta$-sitosterol glycoside also stable in high temperature, $N_2$, $O_2$ gas and light exposure, and metal ion. Ames test result revealed that $\beta$-sitosterol glycoside did not have any mutagenic activity. These results suggest that the $\beta$-sitosterol glycoside might be a promising candidate as a natural antimicrobial compound.

A rare flavonol glycoside identified as $eupalitin-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucoside$ (I) was isolated from Tephrosia spinosa (Leguminosae) and its anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated against carrageenin induced paw edema. The compound exhibited significant activity when compared to the standard drug indomethacin.

The biological activities of fruits of Poncirus trifoliata have been studied. 70% Ethanol extract of Ponciri Fructus was fractionated with ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol by turns. The ether fraction showed antibacterial activity on Staphylococcus aureus and inhibited the contractability of the isolated mice ileum. The ethyl acetate and n-butanol fractions showed the anti-edematous effect on the carrageenin-induced edema of rat hindpaw. From the n-butanol fraction, one of the flavonoid glycoside was isolated and identified as poncirin. Ponciri Fructus contained about 6% poncirin which was 5,7-dihydroxy-4´-methoxy flavanone rhamnoglucoside and poncirin showed antiinflammatory activities. Poncirin was considered as the major effective component of Ponciri Fructus.
