Research on the Selection of Ginkgo Biloba Cell Lines Highly Producing Flavone Glycoside and Terpene as well as the Regulation of Flavone Glycoside Synthesis
The ginkgo biloba extract (Egb) which contains flavonoids and terpenes (ginkgolide and bilobalides) has important pharmacologic functions : The ginkgolide as a potent plate-let activating factor (PAF) antagonist has a inhibition of anaphylaxis induced by antigen and neuroprotective properties under conditions hypoxia/ ischemia, and peripheral nerve damage; Flavonoids as oxygen-free radical scavengers could attenuate lipid peroxide. Egb is in great demand in pharmacentical market In order to meet the need of...
