Objective: To identify Marsdeniae Tenacissimae Caulis and its adulterants by RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) and analyze the gene homology of Marsdeniae Tenacissimae Caulis from various habitats.

Methods: General DNA was isolated from Marsdeniae tenacissimae Caulis which were from seven various habitats and its six adulterants by CTAB, the twenty RAPD was used to identify them.

Results: Random primer 285 (GGG AAC CCT T) could amplify the gene of Marsdeniae tenacissimae Caulis from various habitats stablely, Marsdeniae tenacissimae Caulis and its adulterants could be identified by primer E01 (CCC AAG GTC C) effectively.

Conclusion: The method of RAPD can be used to identify Marsdeniae Tenacissimae Caulis and its adulterants, the gene of Marsdeniae tenacissimae Caulis from various habitats have homology.

Dai-Bai-Jie, the root of the plant Marsdenia tenacissima from the Asclepiadaceae family, is well-known for its therapeutic effects in clearing heat, detoxifying, reducing swelling, and relieving pain as one of the most commonly used Dai medicine. Due to numerous structurally similar C21 steroidal compounds in Dai-Bai-Jie, chemical composition profiling has been substantially challenged. In this study, an offline two-dimensional chromatographic method (LC × SFC separation system) was developed to address these issues.

A previously unreported immunological polysaccharide (MTP70-1) was obtained from Marsdenia tenacissima (Roxb.) Wight et Arn. MTP70-1 (2738 Da) is a heteropolysaccharide that mainly consists of (1 → 5)-linked-L-Araf, t-D-Glcp, (1 → 3,5)-linked-L-Araf, (1 → 4)-linked-D-Galp, (1 → 6)-linked-D-Glcp, and (1 → 3,6)-linked-D-Manp.

Three undescribed pregnane steroids, 12β-O-4-hydroxybenzoyl tenacigenin D (1), 12β-O-4-hydroxybenzoyl tenacigenin A (2), and 11α-nicotinoyl-17β-marsdenin (3), along with two known analogues (4 and 5), were isolated from the roots of Marsdenia tenacissima. Their structures were elucidated using one- and two-dimensional NMR, high-resolution electron ionization-mass spectrometry, single-crystal X-ray diffraction data, and experimental and density-functional-theory-calculated electronic circular dichroism measurements. All isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against human lung cancer cells (A549), ovarian carcinoma cells (SKOV-3), gastric cancer cells (MGC 803) and breast cancer cells (MCF-7).

Combining selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) with bioactive polysaccharides is one of the effective ways to overcome the shortcomings of SeNPs and polysaccharides and obtain novel antitumor drug candidates. In this study, a heteropolysaccharide (MTP70) with moderate antihepatoma activity was isolated from the stems of Marsdenia tenacissima (Roxb.) Wight et Arn.

P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated herb-drug interactions (HDIs) may impact drug efficacy and safety. Tenacissoside G (Tsd-G), a major active component of Marsdenia tenacissima, exhibits anticancer activity. To analyze the effect of Tsd-G on the pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel (PTX), researchers selected 30 Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, randomized into a solvent control group, a verapamil positive control group, and 20, 40, and 60 mg/kg Tsd-G groups.
