The invention provides novel saponin mixtures and compounds which are
isolated from the species Acacia victoriae and methods for their use.
These compounds may contain a triterpene moiety, such as acacic or
oleanolic acid, to which oligosaccharides and monoterpenoid moieties are
attached. The mixtures and compounds have properties related to the
regulation of apoptosis and cytotoxicity of cells and exhibit potent
anti-tumor effects against a variety of tumor cells.
