IntroductionEleutherococcus senticosusfruit (ESF) is a natural health supplement resource that has been extensively applied as a tonic for the nervous system. The structures and neural bioactivities of triterpenoid saponins (TS), which are the major constituents of ESF, have not been comprehensively analyzed thus far.ObjectiveWe conducted a complete in‐depth MS/MS molecular networking (MN)‐based targeted analysis of TS from the crude extract of ESF and investigated its neuroprotective value.MethodsAn MS/MS MN‐guided strategy was used to rapidly present a series of precursor ions (PIs) of TS in a compound cluster as TS‐targeted information used in the discovery and characterization of TS. In addition, a prepared TS‐rich fraction of ESF was assayed for its restraining effects on β‐amyloid‐induced inhibition of neurite outgrowth.ResultsA total of 87 TS were discovered using a PI tracking strategy, 28 of which were characterized as potentially undescribed structures according to their high‐resolution MS values. Furthermore, the TS‐rich fraction can significantly reduce β‐amyloid‐induced damage to neural networks by promoting the outgrowth of neurites and axons.ConclusionOur findings reveal the richness of TS in ESF and will accelerate their application in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
