(−): IC50 values above 100 µM; the IC50 values were above 100 µM on all cell lines tested with compounds 3, 7, 8, and 9; the selectivity index was determined as the ratio of IC50 value in the normal AML12 hepatocytes divided by the IC50 in other cell lines; (25R)-spirost-5-ene-3β, 22β-3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl(1 ⟶ 2)-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (1), raphvinin (2), raphvinin 2 (3), raphvinin 3 (4), diosgenin (5), trillin (6), deltonin (7), 26-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(22R,25R)-3β, 22, 26-trihydroxyfurost-5-ene-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (8), and sitosterol (9).
