Picroside II

    WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Hodoodo CAT#: H463031

CAS#: 1961245-47-5

Description: Picroside II is one of the dominant effective components extracted from Picrorhiza scrophulariiflora Pennell. It exhibits many pharmacological effects. Picroside II protects against Alpha-naphthylisothiocyanate, a typical hepatotoxicant that causes cholestasis, which causes toxic bile acid accumulation in the liver and leads to liver injury. It also decreases serum biochemical markers and lessened histological injuries in mice and exerts anti-inflammatory and antidiarrheal effects for treating the diseases associated with oxidative injury.
