Structure-activity relationships of synthetic saponins.
The haemolytic and antifungal activities of synthetic diosgenyl, tigogenyl, hecogenyl, methyl oleanolate, methyl ursolate and methyl glycyrrhetinate glycosides were compared with each other. Both activities of the steroid glycosides were generally parallel to each other, while almost all haemolytic triterpenoid glycosides showed no antifungal activity.
