Seven new tetrasaccharide glycosides, tyrianthins 1-7 (1-7), along with six known glycolipids were isolated from the roots of Ipomoea tyrianthina, and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic and chemical methods. The content of resin glycosides in samples collected in three different regions was analyzed and compared, and the results showed that the flowering or dry season did not have any effect on the chemical composition for the same locality, but the growing location itself did affect the chemical composition of resin glycosides. Intraperitoneal administration to mice of tyrianthin 6 (6) resulted in antidepressant activity. Tyrianthin 6 (6), scammonin 1 (8), and scammonin 2 (9) exhibited dose-dependent protective effects against pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures. Also, tyrianthin 6 (6) and scammonin 2 (9) produced relaxant effects on spontaneous contractions in the isolated rat ileum.

Ipomoeassin F (Ipom-F) is a plant-derived macrocyclic resin glycoside that potently inhibits cancer cell growth through blockage of Sec61-mediated protein translocation at the endoplasmic reticulum. Recently, detailed structural information on how Ipom-F binds to Sec61α was obtained using Cryo-EM, which discovered that polar interactions between asparagine-300 (N300) in Sec61α and four oxygens in Ipom-F are crucial. One of the four oxygens is from the carbonyl group at C-4 of the fatty acid chain.

Background: Excessive lipogenesis of the skin triggers some dermatological concerns, such as enlarged pores, acne, and blackheads. Although topical drug treatments can offer temporary relief, their prolonged usage may lead to side effects of dryness, irritation, or allergic reactions. Consequently, the development of safer and efficacious ingredients in cosmetics for managing sebum overproduction represents a significant yet challenging endeavor.
