Echinacoside

Identification

Summary

Echinacoside is a phenylethanoid glycoside plant isolate currently being investigated for anti-apoptotic and neuroprotective effects.

Generic Name
Echinacoside
DrugBank Accession Number
DB15488
Background

Echinacoside is a phenylethanoid glycoside isolated from Echinacea angustifolia in 1950, and currently being investigated for the treatment of Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, atherosclerosis, osteoporosis, acute colitis, wound treatment, and hepatitis.1 Echinacoside has demonstrated inhibition of apoptosis in neural cell lines, demonstrating potential for use in the treatment of neurological conditions.2

Metabolism

The metabolism of echinacoside has been investigated in rats and is thought to involve catechol O-methyltransferase as well as unspecified UDP-gluc- uronosyltransferases and sulfotransferases.3 A study of echinacoside's metabolism by human intestinal flora identified 13 metabolites which are produced independantly of human metabolism.4
