Abstract

The anticomplementary activity of compounds isolated from the heartwood of Caesalpinia sappan L. (Leguminosae) was investigated. The sterol mixture (campesterol 11.2%, stigmasterol 18.9% and β-sitosterol 69.9%) was most potent and brazilin, brazilein, and protosappanin E showed a new anticomplementary activity on the complement system in vitro.
