Picroside I is one of the major phytochemicals found in the roots and rhizomes of Picrorhiza kurroa Royle ex Benth.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Phytochemical found within a Traditional Chinese Medicine herbal preparation. Picroside I, an iridoid glycoside, is a hepatoprotective agent.
Picroside I is a potent anti-cancer, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory agent. Picroliv is a standardized drug that is a mixture of two iridoid glycoside components picroside I and picroside II (Kutkoside). It displays protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury, respiratory, and inflammatory diseases.
The two iridoid glycosides kutkoside and picroside-I are the active hepatoprotective principles of Picrorhiza kurroa Royle ex Benth (Scrophulariaceae), commonly known as Kutki. Quantitation of these phytoconstituents is important for the routine quality control of Kutki extract. To develop and
