| Description | Pilosidine has vasoconstrictor activity, it showed facilitating effect on adrenaline evoked contractions in rabbit aorta isolated preparations. |
| In vitro | METHODS AND RESULTS:From the rhizomes of Curculigo pilosa, two benzylbenzoate diglucosides, piloside A and piloside B, and a glucosyl-fused norlignan, Pilosidine, previously obtained only as the tetra-O-methyl derivative, were isolated. CONCLUSIONS: Pilosidine showed facilitating effect on adrenaline evoked contractions in rabbit aorta isolated preparations. |
