متن کاملBiologically Active Triterpene Glycosides from Sea Cucumbers (holothuroidea, Echinodermata)

Nearly 100 holothurins isolated in the last twenty years are grouped into three main aglycone structural types: 3p-hydrox>iiolost-9(ll)-ene, 3p-hydrox5*iolost-7-ene and nonholostane based aglycones. This communication offers a general view of the s...
