Five New Furostanol Glycosides from the Fruits of Tribulus terrestris with NO Production Inhibitory Activity

Eight furostanol glycosides including five undescribed compounds, named tribufurostanosides A-E (1-5), and three known ones (6-8) were isolated from the fruits of Tribulus terrestris L. Their chemical structures were determined by the IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D-, and 2D-NMR spectra. Furostanols 1-8 significantly inhibited nitric oxide production in LPS activated RAW 264.7 cells with IC
