Uzara glycosides (UG) extracted from Xysmalobium undulatum are used for treating non-specific diarrhea.Cross-reactivity has been described for UG in digitalis glycoside assays but digitalis-like cardiac effects are controversially discussed. Therefore, we performed a randomized, singleblind
BACKGROUND
Xysmalobium undulatum, commonly known as uzara, is traditionally used as an antidiarrhoeal and to treat stomach cramps, dysmenorrhoea and afterbirth cramps. In addition, it was reportedly used to treat anxiety and other conditions relating to mental health.
OBJECTIVE
To unite the
Four major cardenolide glycosides of Xysmalobium undulatum (L.) R. Br. roots (Uzara) have been isolated for the first time in pure form. The structures were elucidated by spectral analyses and determined as sophorosides and their 17-epimers, respectively. Thus, the structural elucidation of uzarin
