The primary function is to stimulate the production of adrenal cortical hormones, which increases the production of sex hormones. Catalpol also exhibits anti-inflammatory activity and has shown to increase the production of androgens yielded by the adrenal gland, which can lead to increases in muscle mass.

To study the protective effects of catalpol against H2O2-induced oxidative damage in astrocytes. Astrocytes were pretreated with 1, 10, 100 micromol x L(-1) catalpol and then exposed to H2O2. Effects of catalpol on cell morphous were observed by inverted microscope.
Bumble bee pollinators can be exposed to pathogens when foraging on flowers previously visited by infected individuals. Infectious cells may be deposited in floral nectar, providing a site for pathogens to interact with nectar secondary compounds prior to infecting bees.
The protective effect of an iridoid catalpol extracted and purified from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Rehmannia glutinosa on the neuronal degeneration of nigral-striatal dopaminergic pathway was studied in a chronic 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)/probenecid C57BL/6 mouse model and in 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridimium (MPP(+))
Two iridoid scaffolds were synthesized enantioselectively using as key step an l-proline-catalyzed alpha-formyl oxidation. The in vitro antiproliferative activities were evaluated against a representative panel of human solid tumor cell lines. Both iridoids induced considerably growth inhibition in the range

The oxidative stress-induced changes and feasibility of prevention of these changes with an aid of vitamines E and C were investigated in cultured brain cortex of the newborn albino rats. Modeling the oxidative stress was achieved with addition of H(2)O(2)
