Loganin
Loganin is an iridoid monoterpenoid with formula C17H26O10 that is isolated from several plant species and exhibits neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties. It has a role as a plant metabolite, a neuroprotective agent, an EC 3.4.23.46 (memapsin 2) inhibitor, an EC 3.2.1.20 (alpha-glucosidase) inhibitor, an anti-inflammatory agent and an EC 3.1.1.7 (acetylcholinesterase) inhibitor. It is a cyclopentapyran, a beta-D-glucoside, an enoate ester, a monosaccharide derivative, an iridoid monoterpenoid, a methyl ester and a secondary alcohol. It is functionally related to a loganetin. Loganin is one of the best-known of the iridoid glycosides. It is named for the Loganiaceae, having first been isolated from the seeds of a member of that plant family, namely those of Strychnos nux-vomica. It also occurs in Alstonia boonei (Apocynaceae),[1] a medicinal tree of West Africa and in the medicinal/entheogenic shrub Desfontainia spinosa (Columelliaceae) native to Central America and South America. Loganin is a natural product found in Strychnos axillaris, Lonicera japonica, and other organisms with data available. An iridoid monoterpenoid with formula C17H26O10 that is isolated from several plant species and exhibits neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties. Loganin, also known as loganoside, is a member of the class of compounds known as iridoid o-glycosides. Iridoid o-glycosides are iridoid monoterpenes containing a glycosyl (usually a pyranosyl) moiety linked to the iridoid skeleton. Thus, loganin is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. Loganin is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Loganin can be found in a number of food items such as groundcherry, annual wild rice, muscadine grape, and broad bean, which makes loganin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.

It also occurs in Alstonia boonei (Apocynaceae), a medicinal tree of West Africa and in the medicinal/entheogenic shrub Desfontainia spinosa (Columelliaceae) native to Central America and South America . Loganin is formed from loganic acid by the enzyme loganic acid O-methyltransferase (LAMT). Loganin then becomes a substrate for the enzyme secologanin synthase (SLS) to form secologanin, a secoiridoid monoterpene found as part of ipecac and terpene indole alkaloids. Loganin is the main iridoid glycoside compound in Cornus officinalis and has anti-inflammatory and anti-shock effects.

Sweroside
Sweroside is a glycoside. Sweroside is a natural product found in Strychnos axillaris, Lonicera japonica, and other organisms with data available. See also: Lonicera japonica flower (part of); Menyanthes trifoliata leaf (part of); Centaurium erythraea whole (part of). Sweroside, isolated from Lonicera japonica, exhibits cytoprotective, anti-osteoporotic, and hepatoprotective effect[1][2]. Sweroside, isolated from Lonicera japonica, exhibits cytoprotective, anti-osteoporotic, and hepatoprotective effect[1][2].
secologanin
Secologanin is a member of the class of compounds known as terpene glycosides. Terpene glycosides are prenol lipids containing a carbohydrate moiety glycosidically bound to a terpene backbone. Thus, secologanin is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. Secologanin is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Secologanin can be found in a number of food items such as oyster mushroom, flaxseed, nectarine, and cereals and cereal products, which makes secologanin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Secologanin is a secoiridoid monoterpene synthesized from geranyl pyrophosphate in the mevalonate pathway. Secologanin then proceeds with dopamine or tryptamine to form ipecac and terpene indole alkaloids, respectively . Secologanin, a secoiridoid glucoside, is a pivotal terpenoid intermediate in the biosynthesis of biologically active monoterpenoid indole alkaloids such as reserpine, ajmaline, and vinblastine. Secologanin synthase (cytochrome P450 isoform CYP72A1) catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of loganin into Secologanin[1][2].

Swertianin
A member of the class of xanthones that is 9H-xanthen-9-one substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 1, 2 and 8 and a methoxy group at position 6. It has been isolated from various species of the genus Swertia and has been found to exhibit antioxidant activities.
Secologanin
(-)-secologanin is an iridoid monoterpenoid that is acetaldehyde in which on of the hydrogens of the methyl group has been replaced by a 2-(beta-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-4-yl group which is substituted at positions 3 and 5 by a vinyl and a methoxycarbonyl group, respectively (the 2S,3R,4S stereoisomer). It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is a beta-D-glucoside, a methyl ester, an aldehyde, an enoate ester, a secoiridoid glycoside and a member of pyrans. Secologanin is a natural product found in Lonicera japonica, Symphoricarpos orbiculatus, and other organisms with data available.
