TL;DR: Tannins, whether total tannins or pure tannin compound, have remarkable activity in cancer prevention and anticancer and has wealthy foreground for developing new cancer prevention agents and/or new anticancer drugs screening among tannIn compounds.
Abstract: This paper reviewed the biological activities of tannins in cancer prevention and anticancer, and mainly discussed related mechanisms The results suggest that tannins, whether total tannins or pure tannin compound, have remarkable activity in cancer prevention and anticancer It has wealthy foreground for developing new cancer prevention agents and/or new anticancer drugs screening among tannin compounds

TL;DR: Saponin from Tribulue terrestris could significantly reduce the level of serum glucose and decrease the content of serum cholesterol in mice.
Abstract: Objective To study the hypoglycemic effect of saponin from Tribulus terrestris L. Method Alloxan was used to establish the diabetic model in mice. Phenformin Hydrochlride Tables was used as the positive control. The level of glucose, triglyceride, cholesterol and SOD in serum were determined. Results The level of serum glucose could be significantly reduced by saponin from Tribulus terrestris, which was the rate of 26.25% and 40.67% in normal mice and diabetic mice in respectively. The level of serum triglyceride could be reduced 23.35%. The saporin could also decrease the content of serum cholesterol. Serum SOD activity of the mice was increased by the saponin. Conclusion Saponin from Tribulue terrestris could significantly reduce the level of serum glucose.

TL;DR: Imipramine and total triterpenes from Centella asiatica reduced the immobility time and ameliorated the imbalance of amino acid levels in mice brain tissue.
Abstract: Objective To evaluate the antidepressant activity of total triterpenes from Centella asiatica in forced swimming test. Methods Mice were randomly divided into control group, model group and treatment group. The effect of total triterpenes from Centella asiatica on the immobility time in forced swimming mice and concentration of amino acid in mice brain tissue was observed. Results Imipramine and total triterpenes from Centella asiatica reduced the immobility time and ameliorated the imbalance of amino acid levels. Conclusion The total triterpenes from Centella asiatica had antidepressant activity.

TL;DR: The preventive and therapeutic effects of saponin from Tribulus terrestris L. on diet-induced hyperlipidemia in mice have been studied and showed that it could significantly low the levels of serum TC, LDL-c, TG, and liver TC and increase the activities of superoxide-dismutase in liver.
Abstract: The preventive and therapeutic effects of saponin from Tribulus terrestris L. on diet-induced hyperlipidemia in mice have been studied. It showed that in preventive experiment the saponin could significantly low the levels of serum TC (P < 0.05), LDL-c (P < 0.01) and liver TC (P < 0.05), TG (P < 0.05), and increase the activities of superoxide-dismutase (SOD) in liver. The therapeutic experiment showed that the saponin could significantly reduce the contents of serum TC (P < 0.05) and liver TC (P < 0.01).
