Picroside I is the major ingredient of Picrorhiza scrophulariiflora. Picrorhiza scrophulariiflora is a high value medicinal herb due to rich source of hepatoprotective metabolites, Picroside-I and Picroside-II[1]. Picroside I is a promising agent for the management of asthma. Picroside I reduces the inflammation significantly at its higher dose. Picroside I also downregulates pSTAT6 and GATA3 expressions. Picroside I dose-dependently increases the serum levels of IFN-γ[2].
Picroside I (20 mg/kg, o.p, 12 d) reduces AHR in the experimental asthma model and reduces OVA-associated IgE levels[2].
