Isolation of a New Member of the Ecdysteroid Glycoside Family: 2-Deoxy-20-hydroxyecdysone 22-O-β-D-Glucopyranoside

TLDR
A new ecdysteroid glycoside, 2-deoxy-20-hydroxyecdysone 22-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, is isolated from the herb Silene italica ssp.
Abstract
A new ecdysteroid glycoside, 2-deoxy-20-hydroxyecdysone 22-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, is isolated from the herb Silene italica ssp. nemoralis (Waldst. and Kit.) Nyman. The compound is purified with multistep chromatography, such as classical column chromatography on alumina and droplet countercurrent distribution. Also, it is expanded using twice low-pressure reversed-phase liquid column chromatography. Chromatography in four steps results in the purified 2-deoxy-20-hydroxyecdysone 22-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside. Two other ecdysteroids have also been separated, including the formerly identified integristerone A and 24(28)-dehydromakisterone A.

Distribution of phytoecdysteroids in the Caryophyllaceae.

TL;DR: It was found that phytoecdysteroids were present predominantly in the Genera Lychnis, Petrocoptis, Sagina and Silene, and close association of ecdysteroid occurrence with certain groups of this tribe was revealed.

Significant activity of ecdysteroids on the resistance to doxorubicin in mammalian cancer cells expressing the human ABCB1 transporter.

TL;DR: The results show the effect of ecdysteroids on MDR cancer cells for the first time and biological significance of the resistance-increasing activity of the most abundant phytoecdysteroid including 20-hydroxyecdysone is yet to be clarified.

Alterations in rat lipid metabolism following ecdysterone treatment.

TL;DR: The influence of ecdysterone on the lipid metabolism in liver and adipose tissue from rat was investigated using 14C-acetate and 32P-orthophosphate as precursors and a significant decrease was found.
