Bergenin displays antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory properties, in addition to its use in folk medicines as a potent hepatoprotective agent. Bergenin acts by inhibiting the formation of interleukin 1beta and TNF-α, which suggests its potential use for controling inflammatory pain.
The presence of bergenin in substantial amounts in the methanol leaves extract of Flueggea virosa (Euphorbiaceae) was established as a strong chemotaxomic point of differentiation between Flueggea virosa and Securinega virosa. Bergenin showed an inhibitory effect on the growth of
(+)-Bergenin (1) was isolated from Sacoglottis uchi, a species of vegetable found in the Amazon region and popularly used for the treatment of several hepatic problems. The structure of 1 was fully characterized using IR, GC-MS and NMR (1D and
A novel C-C-coupled dimer derivative of bergenin was produced by the biotransformation of cultured mycelia of white rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus. Its structure was elucidated by detailed spectroscopic analysis.
A validated reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method was developed for the determination of bergenin in rat plasma. Bergenin in rat plasma was extracted with methanol, which also acted as a deproteinization agent. Chromatographic separation of bergenin was performed on

Here we evaluated the inhibitory effects of bergenin analogues (2-10), prepared from naturally occurring bergenin, (1) on β-secretase (BACE1) activity. All the bergenin analogues that were analyzed inhibited BACE1 in a dose-dependent manner. 11-O-protocatechuoylbergenin (5) was the most potent inhibitor
