Aucubin is an iridoid glycoside that has been found in E. ulmoides with diverse biological activities.{36752,36753} Aucubin (0.001-1 ?g/ml) dose-dependently inhibits the IgE-stimulated secretion of IL-6 and TNF-? by RBL-2H3 mast cells (IC50s = 0.19 and 0.1 ?g/ml, respectively).{36752} It reduces UVB-induced expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) in HS68 human foreskin fibroblasts by 57% when used at a concentration of 0.01 ?g/ml.{36753} Aucubin (0.01-1 ?g/ml) also dose-dependently reduces production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, a marker of lipid peroxidation. In a mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis induced by bleomycin (Item No. 13877), aucubin (5 mg/kg, i.p.) decreases the breathing frequency, increases lung dynamic compliance, alleviates parenchymal fibrotic changes, and reduces expression of TGF-?1 and ?-smooth muscle actin (?-SMA).{36754} Aucubin (5 mg/kg, i.p.) reduces blood glucose levels and lipid peroxidation in the liver and kidneys of rats with diabetes induced by streptozotocin (Item No. 13104).{36755} It also reduces the number of errors made in a Y-maze and enhances neuronal survival by approximately 7- and 4-fold, respectively, in rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes.{36756}
