Description

Asperuloside is a natural iridoid glycoside found in various plants, including Galium aparine (cleavers). It exhibits a range of biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects. Research suggests that asperuloside may be involved in the regulation of cell signaling pathways and may have therapeutic potential in the treatment of conditions like cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Its synthesis has been studied, and it is typically extracted from plant sources. The compound's potential medicinal applications and its unique structure make it a subject of ongoing research.'

Drug Classes (5)

ClassDescription
iridoid monoterpenoidOne of a class of monoterpenoids biosynthesized from isoprene and often intermediates in the biosynthesis of alkaloids. Iridoids usually consist of a cyclopentane ring fused to a six-membered oxygen heterocycle; cleavage of a bond in the cyclopentane ring gives rise to the subclass known as secoiridoids.
beta-D-glucosideAny D-glucoside in which the anomeric centre has beta-configuration.
monosaccharide derivativeA carbohydrate derivative that is formally obtained from a monosaccharide.
acetate esterAny carboxylic ester where the carboxylic acid component is acetic acid.
gamma-lactoneA lactone having a five-membered lactone ring.
