Anti-neutrophilic inflammatory steroidal glycosides from Solanum torvum

Torvpregnanosides A and B (1-2), two pregnane glycosides, and torvoside Q (3), a 23-keto-spirostanol glycoside, along with twelve known steroidal saponins were isolated from Solanum torvum. All structures were identified from spectroscopic data, and the compounds were tested for anti-neutrophilic inflammation activity. Structure-activity relationships are discussed.
