What is Two selective novel triterpene glycosides from sea cucumber, Telenata Ananas: inhibitors of chemokine receptor-5 about?

The aqueous methanolic extract of a sea cucumber was found to contain two triterpene glycosides 1 and 2. The structures of 1 and 2 were established based on high-resolution NMR studies. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited inhibitory activity (K(i)) of 30 and 5microM, respectively, in a chemokine receptor subtype 5 (CCR5) assay. Both compounds did not show any significant inhibition in a CXCR2 assay at 50microM, suggesting their selectivity for the CCR5 receptor.
