MedKoo Cat#: 600114 | Name: Aucubin

Description:

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

Aucubin is an iridoid glycoside. Iridoids are commonly found in plants and function as defensive compounds. Irioids decrease the growth rates of many generalist herbivores. Aucubin was found to protect against liver damage induced by carbon tetrachloride or alpha-amanitin in mice and rats when 80 mg/kg was dosed intraperitoneally.
