A new pregnane glycoside hindicusine (1) was isolated from the CHCl(3)-EtOH (3 : 2) extract of Hemidesmus indicus, whose structure was established on the basis of spectroscopic studies. The glycoside (1) and its acetylated derivative (5) were evaluated for their anti-oxidant and anti-dyslipidemic activities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
