Uses
Rhodiocyanoside A is found to show antiallergic activity in a passive cutaneous anaphylaxis test in rat[1].
Definition
ChEBI: Rhodiocyanoside A is a cyanogenic glycoside that is (2Z)-2-methylbut-2-enenitrile attached to a beta-D-glucopyranosyloxy at position 4. Isolated from Rhodiola quadrifida, it exhibits anti-allergic activity. It has a role as a metabolite and an anti-allergic agent. It is a cyanogenic glycoside, a beta-D-glucoside, a monosaccharide derivative and an aliphatic nitrile.
