Effect of didrovaltrate on I-calcium current in rabbit ventricular myocytes.
    Journal of traditional Chinese medicine = Chung i tsa chih ying wen pan, 2012, Volume: 32, Issue:3

    To investigate the effect of didrovaltrate on L-type calcium current (I(Ca-L)) in rabbit ventricular myocytes.. We used the whole cell patch clamp recording technique.. Didrovaltrate at concentrations of 30 microg/ L and 100 microg/L significantly decreased peak I(Ca-L) (I(Ca-Lmax)) from (6.01 +/- 0.48) pA/pF to (3.45 +/- 0.27) pA/pF and (2.16 +/- 0.19) pA/pF (42.6% and 64.1%, n=8, P< 0.01), respectively. Didrovaltrate shifted upwards the current-voltage curves of I(Ca-L) without changing their active, peak and reverse potentials. Didrovaltrate affected the steady-state inactivation of I(Ca-L). The half activation potential (V1/2) was significantly shifted from (-26 +/- 2) to (-36 +/- 3) mV (n=6, P<0.05), with a significant change in the slope factor (k) (from 8.8 +/- 0.8 to 11.1 +/- 0.9, n=6, P<0.05). Didrovaltrate did not affect the activation curve.. Didrovaltrate blocks I(Ca-L) in a concentration-dependent manner and probably inhibits I(Ca-L) in its inactive state, which may contribute to its cardiovascular effect.

Concise synthesis of 5,6-dihydrovaltrate leading to enhanced Rev-export inhibitory congener.
    Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry, 2010, Aug-15, Volume: 18, Issue:16

    The concise synthesis of 5,6-dihydrovaltrate (2), the bioisostere of valtrate (1) showing anti-HIV activity by inhibition for nuclear export of Rev, has been achieved from the commercially available iridoid genipin (3). Analysis of steric influence of the substituents linked to the three hydroxyl groups was conducted by the synthesized three analogs (2a-2c). Consequently, attenuation of steric hindrance around the epoxy portion was revealed to enhance inhibitory potency for Rev-export. In addition to this finding, 1-acetoxy analog 2b was disclosed as the promising Rev-export inhibitor superior to 1.

Control of development and valepotriate production by auxins in micropropagated Valeriana glechomifolia.
    Plant cell reports, 2004, Volume: 23, Issue:4

    Valeriana glechomifolia is a plant species endemic to southern Brazil that accumulates valepotriates, which are terpene derivatives, in all of its organs. Valepotriates are the presumed sedative generic components of the pharmaceutically used species of Valeriana. The influence of various concentrations of the auxins indole-3-acetic acid, indole-3-butyric acid and alpha-naphthaleneacetic acid on the growth of micropropagated V. glechomifolia was investigated under conditions of transient and continuous exposure. Changes in the development of roots and shoots as well as the production of the valepotriates acevaltrate, valtrate and didrovaltrate (analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography) were evaluated. The best performance in valepotriate production, growth and survival under ex vitro conditions following plant acclimatization was achieved in the continuous presence of 5.71 microM IAA. When cultured in medium containing IAA plants produced stable levels of valepotriates throughout the entire cultivation period.

[Interspecific and intraspecific comparison of valepotrates contents in three Valeriana plants].
    Zhong yao cai = Zhongyaocai = Journal of Chinese medicinal materials, 2002, Volume: 25, Issue:4

    To compare the contents of three valepotrates intraspecifically and intraspecifically in three medicinal Valeriana plants grown in different areas in China.. The method of RE-HPLC was adopted.. The results showed that the contents of three valepotriates in Valeriana jatamansi Jones, V. officinalis L. and V. officinalis var. latifolia Miq. were different. Among them, that of Valeriana jatamansi Jones was the highest. The contents of three valepotrates in Valeriana jatamansi Jones varied significantly from different areas, samples collected from Longli of Guizhou province ranking the highest. The contents of three valepotriates in V. officnalis L. also varied significantly from different areas, samples from Liuba of Shaanxi province showing the highest. The results also showed that the contents of three valepotriates in underground part are all higher than that in aerial part.. The interspecific and intraspecific differences of valepotriates in three Valeriana plans were obvious.

Quantitative determination of valepotriates from Valeriana native to South Brazil.
    Planta medica, 2002, Volume: 68, Issue:6

    Valtrate, DIA-valtrate, acevaltrate, 1-beta-acevaltrate and didrovaltrate have been quantitatively estimated by reversed-phase HPLC in the leaves, flowers, stems and roots of Valeriana glechomifolia Meyer, V. catharinensis Graebn., V. chamaedryfolia Cham. & Schltdl., V. eichleriana (C.A.Mull.) Graebn., V. polysthachya Smith, V. scandens L., V. eupatoria Sobral, V. salicariifolia Vahl and V. tajuvensis Sobral. All plants presented valepotriates being V. glechomifolia the richest one, followed by V. eupatoria, V. eichleriana and V. tajuvensis.

Effect of valepotriates on the behavior of rats in the elevated plus-maze during diazepam withdrawal.
    European journal of pharmacology, 1994, Aug-01, Volume: 260, Issue:2-3

    The effect of a mixture of valepotriates on the elevated plus-maze performance of diazepam withdrawn rats was evaluated. The rats were chronically (28 days) treated with diazepam (doses increased up to 5.0 mg/kg) and then treated with control solution for 3 days to induce a withdrawal syndrome. Chronically vehicle-treated rats were used as control. The abstinent animals treated with vehicle showed a significant decrease in the percentage of time spent in the open arms when compared with the control animals. Diazepam and valerian 12.0 mg/kg reversed this anxiogenic effect. Valerian 6.0 mg/kg did not show any difference in relation to the others group.

Effects of thiol compounds versus the cytotoxicity of valepotriates on cultured hepatoma cells.
    Planta medica, 1990, Volume: 56, Issue:2

    The antagonistic activity of various thiol compounds versus the cytotoxic effects of valtrate and didrovaltrate has been evaluated on cultured hepatoma cells. Compounds with free SH groups like cysteine, mercaptoethanol, dithioerythritol, and glutathione were able to suppress the cytotoxicity of the valepotriates in a dose-dependent way, whereas compounds with blocked SH groups did not antagonize these toxic effects. The possible interactions between the valepotriates and thiol compounds are discussed.
