Verbascoside Explained
Verbascoside is a polyphenol glycoside[1] in which the phenylpropanoid caffeic acid and the phenylethanoid hydroxytyrosol form an ester and an ether bond respectively, to the rhamnose part of a disaccharide, namely β-(3′,4′-dihydroxyphenyl)ethyl-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1→3)-β-D-(4-O-caffeoyl)-glucopyranoside.
Occurrences
Natural occurrences
Verbascoside can be found in species in all the families of the order Lamiales (syn. Scrophulariales).[2] Only two examples are known from outside the order,[3] in the clade Asterids.
- in the LamialesIn the family Lamiaceae, it can be found in the medicinal plants in the genus Phlomis,[4] in the Scrophulariaceae, in Verbascum phlomoides,[5] Verbascum mallophorum,[6] or, in the family Buddlejaceae, in Buddleja globosa[7] or Buddleja cordata,[8] in the family Bignoniaceae, in Pithecoctenium sp and Tynanthus panurensis, in the family Orobanchaceae, in Cistanche sp and Orobanche rapum-genistae,[9] in the Plantaginaceae, in Plantago lanceolata,[10] in Verbenaceae, in Verbena officinalis (common vervain),[11] Aloysia citrodora (lemon verbena) and Lantana camara,[12] in the Oleaceae, in Olea europaea (olive),[13] in the Lentibulariaceae, in the carnivorous plant Pinguicula lusitanica,[3] and, in the Byblidaceae, in Byblis liniflora.[2]
Derivatives
Verbascoside derivatives can be found in the Verbascum undulatum[14] and notably apiosides in Verbascum sp.[15]
In in vitro cultures
It can also be produced in plant cell cultures of Leucosceptrum sp (Lamiaceae) and Syringa sp (Oleaceae).[16] It can also be produced in hairy roots cultures of Paulownia tomentosa (empress tree, Paulowniaceae).[17]
Biological activity
Verbascoside has an antimicrobial activity,[7] notably against Staphylococcus aureus.[8] It can also have anti-inflammatory properties.[6]
Although some in vitro genotoxicity of verbascoside has been reported on human lymphocytes with an involvement of PARP-1 and p53 proteins,[18] subsequent in vivo tests reported no genotoxicity for high dosage oral administration.[19] It is a protein kinase C inhibitor.[12]
