Exploring the protective potential of bilobalide against amyloid beta peptide 1‐42‐induced toxicity in BE(2)‐M17 cells: insights via cell viability and cellular energetics [PDF]
Abstract Background Reliable treatment approaches for addressing early cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are currently lacking. Given the multifactorial nature of AD, therapeutic strategies need to focus on disease‐specific biochemical pathways.

Bilobalide attenuates steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head by upregulating the ERK/HIF-1α signaling pathway and promoting angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling [PDF]
Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a severe bone disease associated with long-term glucocorticoid use, characterized by impaired bone metabolism and vascular insufficiency.

Synthetic Studies on Bilobalide [PDF]
We disclose our synthetic studies on bilobalide, which features a Diels–Alder reaction of a cyclic anhydride to form two contiguous quaternary carbon centers, desymmetrization of a symmetric diol, and construction of a cyclic acetal under acidic conditions with inversion of configuration at an allylic position.

11-Step Asymmetric Synthesis of (–)-Bilobalide [PDF]
The Ginkgo biloba metabolite bilobalide (BB) is widely ingested but poorly understood. However, its antagonism of gamma -aminobutyric acid A receptors (GABA A R) has been tied to rescue of cognitive deficits in mouse models of ...

Bilobalide increases SKCa current via 5-HT2BR-PLC–PKC pathway, causing hyperpolarization and enhanced EET production in human coronary artery endothelial cells [PDF]
Background Ginkgo biloba extract and its active component bilobalide induce endothelium-dependent vasodilation in coronary and other vascular beds. This effect is associated with increased Ca2+-activated K+ channel activity in endothelial cells. We aimed
