Biochem/physiol Actions
2,3,5,4′-Tetrahydroxystilbene 2-O-β-D-glucoside induces the expression and enhances the activity of EPO. The compound stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis, and expression of hemoglobin in non-hematopoietic cells. 2,3,5,4′-Tetrahydroxystilbene 2-O-β-D-glucoside has demonstrated protective effects in cardiovascular disease and ischemia models.
2,3,5,4?-Tetrahydroxystilbene 2-O-?-D-glucoside (THSG) elicits anti-inflammatory, antioxidative and anti-atherosclerotic functionality. It also provides protection against cytotoxicity in neuroblastoma cells induced by 1-methyl-4-phenyl pyridium (MPP+) as well as MPTP(1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine) induced Parkinson?s disease. By its antioxidative functionality, it blocks lipid peroxidation in Alzheimer?s disease model. In ligature-induced periodontitis, THSG inhibits inflammation.
