Abstract
Two new iridoid glucosides, callicoside A (1) and callicoside B (2), were isolated from the leaves of Callicarpa nudiflora. Their structures were elucidated by means of spectroscopic methods and chemical evidences. In an in vitro bioassay, compound 1 showed pronounced hepatoprotective activity against D-galactosamine-induced toxicity in WB-F344 rat hepatic epithelial stem-like cells.
