Title
Antiprotozoal and antiangiogenic saponins from **Apodytes dimidiata**
Author
Abstract
Bioassay-guided isolation was performed on the leaves of Apodytes dimidiata E. Mey. Ex Arn. (Icacinaceae), based on previously demonstrated activity against Leishmania. Six saponins never isolated from nature before were elucidated with LCMS/MS, GCMS and 1D and 2D NMR. The compounds apodytine AF are responsible at least in part for the antiprotozoal activity, but also possess haemolytic activity and display antiangiogenic activity in the rat aorta ring assay, an effect which may be due to a non-selective toxicity.
