| Description | Cichoriin is a photosensitive compound, it could be used as herbal photosensitizing agent in treating benign breast tumor in rats. |
| In vitro | 方法与结果：从阿尔皮尼亚·加朗加（Alpinia galanga Swartz）根组织的内生菌Streptomyces sp. Tc052中分离得到四种黄酮类化合物，包括山奈酚（1）、异欧化酚（2）、伞形草酮（3）和 Cichoriin（4）。对这些化合物（1-4）进行了针对谷氨酸诱导的海马HT22细胞系细胞毒性的保护效果评估，结果显示化合物1和2在100 μM的浓度下分别显示出62.4+2.8%和55.3+3.4%的显著保护比率，而化合物3-4无活性。化合物1和2还表现出对DPPH自由基的强大清除作用，其IC50值分别为60.74 μM和75.65 μM。结论：这些结果表明化合物1和2可能具有针对氧化性细胞损伤的神经保护活性。 |
