Biochem/physiol Actions

Geniposide is an iridoid glycoside with a variety of biological activities including neuroprotective, anti-diabetic, antiproliferative, and antioxidative activity. Geniposide has been shown to regulate Nrf2 translocation and upregulate downstream antioxidant protein HO-1 expression through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which may account for its neuroprotective and antioxidative activity. Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor may also play a critical role in geniposide induced HO-1 expression.
