Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Fourteen secoiridoid derivatives were shared across the fruits, leaves and branches of Ligustrum japonicum.
- Observation Four previously undescribed secoiridoids were isolated and identified, two from the leaves and two from the branches.
- Intervention effect Oleuropein, 8Z-nüezhenide and GL-3 showed weak proliferative activity on human dermal papilla cells, an increase of about 10–20% compared with control.
- Observation The leaves and branches contain key secoiridoids that are also found in the fruits.
- Observation The leaves and branches harbor unique metabolites not found in the fruits.
