Six new secoiridoid glycosides, gentiascabraside A (1), 6beta-hydroxyswertiajaposide A (2), 1-O-beta-d-glucopyranosyl-4-epiamplexine (3), and scabrans G3 (4), G4 (5), and G5 (6), have been isolated from the rhizomes and roots of Gentiana scabra together with a known compound, swertiajaposide A (7). The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectroscopic (NMR, MS) and chemical means.

A comprehensive phytochemical investigation of the twigs/leaves and flower buds of , a rare deciduous shrub native to China, led to the isolation of 39 structurally diverse compounds. These compounds include 11 iridoid glycosides (- and -), 20 triterpenoids (, , and -), and 8 phenylpropanoids (-). Among these, amabiliosides A () and B () represent previously undescribed bis-iridoid glycosides, while amabiliosides C () and D () feature a unique bis-iridoid-monoterpenoid indole alkaloid scaffold with a tetrahydro--carboline-5-carboxylic acid moiety.

Targeting alpha-glucosidase (maltase-glucoamylase [MGAM] and sucrase-isomaltase [SI]) under diabetes conditions is important to overcome hyperglycemia. Moreover, it is necessary to mitigate hyperglycemia-mediated oxidative stress to evade the progression of diabetes-associated secondary complications. Hence, in the present study, under-explored Nyctanthes arbor-tristis flowers (NAFs) were studied for inhibition of alpha-glucosidase activities.
