Pharmacological Effects of Natural Compounds

The species of the Celastraceae have a long history in traditional medicine, and they produce an extraordinary variety of bioactive metabolites, including pentaciclic triterpenoids. Thus, a diversity of oleane-type triterpenoids have been isolated from this family, mainly those corresponding to the Δ12-oleane skeleton, however, only a few examples of Δ18-oleane-type have been reported[1].
