Abstract
The article briefly discusses main achievements in the investigation of structures of sea cucumber triterpene glycosides and sterols in G.B. Elyakov Pacific Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry of FEB RAS in the period from 2019 by now, including isolation and structural elucidation of more than 80 new triterpene glycosides from Pacific Ocean sea cucumbers while several of them possess unique structural features.
