    Author: Kim Y, Park EJ, Kim J, Kim Y, Kim SR, Kim YY.
    Journal: J Nat Prod; 2001 Jan; 64(1):75-8. PubMed ID: 11170670.
    Abstract:
    In a bioassay-guided search for neuroprotective compounds from medicinal plants, a MeOH extract of whole plants of Hedoytis diffusa yielded five flavonol glycosides, kaempferol 3-O-[2-O-(6-O-E-feruloyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-beta-D-galactopyranoside (1), quercetin 3-O-[2-O-(6-O-E-feruloyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-beta-D-galactopyranoside (2), quercetin 3-O-[2-O-(6-O-E-feruloyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3), kaempferol 3-O-(2-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-beta-D-galactopyranoside (4), and quercetin 3-O-(2-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-beta-D-galactopyranoside (5), and four O-acylated iridoid glycosides (6-9). Compounds 1 and 2 are previously unreported natural products, and all nine compounds exhibited significant neuroprotective activity in primary cultures of rat cortical cells damaged by L-glutamate.
