| Bioactivity | Effusol, a phenolic constituent from Juncus effuses, exhibits potent scavenging activity for DPPH and ABTS radicals, with IC50 values of 79 μM and 2.73 μM, respectively. Effusol rescues CA1 LTP attenuated by corticosterone, defending the hippocampal function against stress-induced cognitive decline[1]. |
