From the methanol extract of the fruits of the blackberry (Rubus allegheniensisPort.), four triterpenoids – pomolic acid (1), tormentic acid (2), euscaphic acid (3) and 1β-hydroxyeuscaphic acid (4) – were isolated, while six triterpenoids –2,3, myrianthic acid (5), ziyu glycoside II (6), sericic acid (7) and 19-hydroxy-2,3-secours-12-ene-2,3,28-trioic acid 3-methyl ester (8) – were obtained from the methanol extract of the leaves of this plant. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectral data. Compounds1–8were examined for their inhibitory activities on foam cell formation in human monocyte-derived macrophages induced by acetylated low-density lipoproteins at a 50 μM concentration. Among the tested compounds,1showed the strongest activity, with the inhibitory effect being 90%. The inhibitory activities of2–8were evaluated to be 30%, 32%, 33%, 4%, 48%, 4% and 24%, respectively. Further, the structure–activity relationship of these compounds was investigated.
