Abstract

A new secoiridoid glycoside characterized as (8 Z)-nuezhenide A along with five known glycosides, (8 E)-nuezhenide, (8 Z)-nuezhenide, oleonuezhenide, osmanthuside B and osmanthuside D, were isolated from the n-BuOH fraction of Ligustrum japonicum leaves. All six compounds significantly protected human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells from 6-hydroxydopamine-induced neurotoxicity.
