Abstract
Triterpenoids are accessible in several terrestrial plants as well as marine organisms, including sponges, algae, fungi, and sea cucumbers are examples of marine creatures. So far, more than 20,000 natural triterpenoids have exhibited several varied bioactivities, including anticancer, antimalarial, anti-HIV, inhibit HIF-1 activation, antibacterial, chemopreventive, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, cardioprotective, antiviral, neuroprotective, hepatoprotective, insecticidal, antidiabetic, cytotoxic. Several plants are used in folklore medicine to treat numerous ailments, and the preparation or uses of traditional practices have been scientifically validated. Although various structural diversity has been observed in the triterpenoids, this review presents the sources and uses of those triterpenoids that showed significant biological activities which could be accessible and promoted to familiar people in the form of traditional medicine or for industrial, or pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
One new pentacyclic triterpenoid, 3β-carboxylicfilic-4(23)-ene (1), and three known pentacyclic triterpenoids, adian-5-en-3α-ol (2), fernenol (3), and fern-7-en-3β-ol (4) were isolated from the petroleum ether phase of the ethanolic extract of Ainsliaea yunnanensis Franch. Their structures were established by spectroscopic methods including 1-D and 2-D NMR, and MS experiments. Compounds 1, 2, 3, and 4 showed significant selective cytotoxicity against human acute monocytic leukemia cell line (THP-1) with IC50 values of 5.12 μM, 1.78 μM, 1.74 μM, and 1.75 μΜ, respectively. Compound 1 also showed an anti-inflammatory effect through the inhibition of the activity of NF-κB by blocking the nuclear translocation of p65.

Abstract
Triterpenes are compounds of natural origin, which have numerously biological activities: anti-cancer properties, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal. These substances can be isolated from plants, animals or fungi. Nowadays, when neoplasms are main cause of death, triterpenes can become an alternative method for treating cancer because of their cytotoxic properties and chemopreventive activities.

Abstract
Phytochemical investigation of methanol extract from the whole plants of Patrinia scabiosifolia Fisch. resulted in the isolation of three new triterpenoid saponins (1-3) along with twelve known triterpenoids (4-15). The structures of the new compounds were established as 11α, 12α-epoxy-3-O-β-D-xylopyranosyl-olean-28, 13β-olide (1), 11α, 12α-epoxy-3-O-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-D-xylopyranosyl-olean-28, 13β-olide (2), and 3-O-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-D-xylopyranosyl oleanolic acid 28-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (3) on the basis of various spectroscopic analyses (including different 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopies and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry) and chemical evidences.
