Swertiamarin has shown potential as antiatherogenic agent by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase activity in high cholesterol fed rats. The high cholesterol fed rats treated with Swertiamarin showed prevention of increased serum total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDLs and VLDLs.
Swertiamarin, a secoiridoid isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of Enicostemma axillare, was evaluated for antiedematogenic activity using carrageenan-, formalin-, and histamine-induced paw edema methods in rats. In the carrageenan-induced method, the percentages of edema inhibition obtained after 5 h

Many traditional Indian medicinal plants which contain large quantity of a secoiridoid, swertiamarin are being used to relieve pain. Iridoids present in a wide variety of medicinal plants possess a large number of medicinal properties. In the present study in
Micellar electrokinetic electrophoresis was employed to determine two active components, gentiopicroside (GE) and swertiamarin (SW) in one Tibetan preparation medicine named shiweilongdankeli, two Tibetan herbal medicines named Gentiana rhodantha and Gentiana kitag and three other Chinese Gentiana medicines named Gentiana
When cultivated with Aspergillus niger, swertiamarin, an important drug, is rapidly transformed into erythrocentaurin and (5Z)-5-ethylidene-8-hydroxy-3,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-1H-pyrano[3,4-c]pyridin-1-one (M(1)), a new compound with high anti-inflammatory activity. A simple and rapid HPLC method for simultaneous determination of swertiamarin and its two metabolites in
An LC-MS/MS method was developed for the quantification of swertiamarin (CAS 17388-39-5) in rat plasma and tissues using gentiopicroside as the internal standard (IS). Swertiamarin and an IS were extracted from plasma and tissues by a simple solid-phase extraction (SPE)
