General description

Diphyllin, a major glycoside compound, is a plant-derived lignan. It is present in Cleistanthus collinus.

Application

Diphyllin has been used to study its antibacterial and antibiofilm activities against fish pathogens.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Diphyllin has shown potential to be used in a novel treatment for bone problems characterized by excessive resorption.
Diphyllin is a natural arylnaphthalene that exhibits potent anticancer and antiviral activities. It is a potent inhibitor of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) that inhibits lysosomal acidification in osteoclasts.
