Picroside II is a flavonoid that has been isolated from P. kurroa and has diverse biological activities.{52489,52490,52491,52492} It decreases expression of FATP5 and SCD, encoding fatty acid transport protein 5 and steroyl CoA desaturase, respectively, and inhibits free fatty acid-induced lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells when used at a concentration of 10 µM.{52489} Picroside II inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast formation in isolated murine bone marrow cells and decreases the size of bone resorption pits in bovine bone slices.{52490} In vivo, picroside II (10 and 60 mg/kg) inhibits LPS-induced trabecular bone loss in a mouse model of inflammatory osteoporosis. It prevents ischemia-reperfusion-induced testicular apoptosis and malondialdehyde (MDA) production in a rat model of testicular torsion.{52491} Picroside II also reduces airway inflammation, lung mucus hypersecretion, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) inflammatory cell infiltration in a mouse model of house dust mite-induced allergic asthma.{52492}
