Solasonine, also known as alpha-solamargine or alpha-solamarine, (3beta,22alpha,25r)-isomer, is a member of the class of compounds known as steroidal saponins. Steroidal saponins are saponins in which the aglycone moiety is a steroid. The steroidal aglycone is usually a spirostane, furostane, spirosolane, solanidane, or curcubitacin derivative. Solasonine is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Solasonine can be found in eggplant, which makes solasonine a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Solasonine is a poisonous chemical compound. It is a glycoside of solasodine. Solasonine occurs in plants of the Solanaceae family. Solasonine was one component of the unsuccessful experimental cancer drug candidate Coramsine . Solasonine is a steroidal glycoalkaloid isolated from Solanum nigrum L.. Solasonine has cytotoxicity to human gastric cancer cells[1].
