The aerial parts of Teucrium yemense yielded two iridoid glycosides. Their structures were elucidated by spectral means as teucardosid and 8-O-acetylharpagid.
In the course of our continuing search for novel cancer chemopreventive agents from natural sources, several kinds of Labiatae plants were screened. Consequently, the iridoid glycoside derivative, 8-acetylharpagide (8-AcHarp), was obtained from the flowering whole plant of Ajuga decumbens as

Growth inhibitory activities and nutritional indices of catalpol (1), 8-O-acetylharpagide (2), and harpagide (3) were determinated in larvae and adults of Tribolium castaneum, respectively. Compound 1 produced a series of allelochemical effects probably related with the DNA synthesis. This iridoid

We have reinvestigated the activity of 8-O-acetylharpagide, an iridoid glucoside, as an ecdysteroid agonist. Elbrecht et al. (Insect Biochem. Mol. Biol. 26 (1996) 519) isolated a preparation of this compound from Ajuga reptans L. and ascribed ecdysteroid agonist activity on

The traditional therapeutic indications for the use of Ajuga reptans (Labiatae) have been investigated. The H2O-soluble part of a crude and partially purified MeOH extract and two isolated iridoids (8-O-acetylharpagide and harpagide), were tested for a biological activity on isolated
