Three new dammarane glycosides (1-3), together with five known compounds, gypenoside LXIX (4), gylongiposide I (5), gypenoside XLVIII (6), allantion (7) and vitexin (8) were isolated from the MeOH extract of the aerial parts of Gynostemma pentaphyllum. Compounds 5, 7, and 8 were isolated from this plant for the first time. Their structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectra interpretation as well as by chemical degradation.

The rapid and accurate annotation of the complex compounds and metabolites in natural products remains a significant challenge. In this study, we developed an integrated strategy to efficiently and accurately profile both the prototypes and metabolites of natural products in vivo. And this was achieved by establishing a gypenosides constituent database and utilizing R programming language to combine sample selection, virtual metabolite database construction, polygon mass defect filtering, and Kendrick mass defect filtering.

Background: Acute pharyngitis (AP) is a prevalent ailment. Gynostemma pentaphylla (GP), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), may treat AP due to its anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory properties, but this remains unexplored.
Methods: This study utilized the TCMSP and Swiss Target Prediction databases to analyze GP's chemical composition and target proteins.

Objectives: To investigate the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of (GP)ethanol extract on motor dysfunction in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease (PD).
Methods: Eighty C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into five groups: control group, model group, levodopa group (positive control group), low-dose GP group, and high-dose GP group, with 16 mice per group. The PD model was induced by injection of 6-hydroxydopamine into the substantia nigra pars reticulata of the mice.

Medicinal plants have long played a crucial role in healthcare systems, but limited genomic information on these species has impeded the integration of modern biological technologies into medicinal plant research. In this study, we selected nine common medicinal plants, each belonging to a different plant family, including (Chloranthaceae), (Vitaceae), (Fabaceae), (Cucurbitaceae), (Polygonaceae), (Caryophyllaceae), (Rubiaceae), (Lamiaceae), and (Asteraceae), to estimate their genome sizes and conduct preliminary genomic surveys. The estimated genome sizes by flow cytometry were 3.
